- KUSI photojournalist Taylor Schuss ends up on the business end of a load of fire retardant dropped from a DC10 Supertanker fighting the Cocos Fire in San Marcos on 5/14/14. Check out this incredible video...
Great piece of photojournalism by Mr. Schuss.
Remarkable videography!! One for the archives! 🙌🏽
Cool and "interesting" perspective on the lead plane and the big DC 10. Reminds me of when a neighbor's home had a load of Phos-Chek dumped on it during a wildfire up here one Fall. He was thankful for the drop but his house, all the plants and trees in his yard and his cars in the driveway were all covered in the stuff. He had his cars washed but the winter rains didn't wash the rest of it away until almost Spring and he used to tell everyone he lived in a pink wonderland.
Nice work, photographer. In the right place at the right time !
Not toxic at all, washes out after a little while. I work with the same stuff in Northern alberta
THAT IS AWESOME
At least he's not going to catch on fire now.
Getting Phos-Chek'd at glorious 60 frames per second. Awesome!
"He ruined my best white shirt, and now my car won't start. I think it's time The News went to war against DC-10s again."
Oh wow, so cool. Better than mine.
Looks like they better use one of those car wash coupons you get in the back of your market receipt. I guess the red color is fire retardant and the reason for red is so they can see the area that was covered so they do not repeat the same section of the fire area. Kind of neat to see the skill to fly those big planes.
Flying planes isnt that hard.. It is the landing that is the hard bit
0:29 - "It was at this moment that [reporter] knew, he fkd up"
Thats real inmate blood.
Maybe ruined a car but got a video that is uber viral! I know a few photogs that would die to get this shot (umm, bad analogy). I wonder what that stuff tastes like?
This is not really considered viral anymore. It COULD go viral still, but til it reaches 1 Million views i wouldn't call it viral.
He"s lucky he weren't killed. If the load had been released sooner, it would literally crush the car like a muscle man crushes a beer can. Firefighters have been crushed to death by being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Hate to be a downer. Just saying.
WILDFIRE: WHAT THE FU- WILDFIRE: *DIES*
this is a planes time of the month...
do you guys not backburn?
they do
man you can't even open a fire hydrant in Australia...
Why the red coloring?
so they can see from the air where theyve dropped
heh.. kusi means pee in finnish :P
And just like that, his burning desire was gone. (See what I did there)
I hate the media and journalists so sucked in.
Yes they get in the way sometimes, but just think of how many lookie lous would be driving around there trying to get a look for themselves if the new didn't cover it.
I think the drop tanker won.
Kusi :ddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd
Worst ending Ever
