And that's how you get yourself killed in the line of duty. Just because you're FDNY Rescue 2, you don't get to do whatever the fuck you want to. Command is there for a REASON.
Ultimately, though, Rescue 2 obeyed the command and got off the top floor. When a lieutenant and a deputy chief disagree, the deputy chief usually gets his way.
Enjoyed your video very much. Reminded me of the many multiple alarm 3 story apartment fires I worked on in the 60's, 70's & 80's in P.G. County, MD. Many if not all of these fire fighters probably weren't born yet. Same again for the methods. Thank you again for your video.
Great video. Full of action and tactics. You could tell the 3rd floor units didn't want to give up the fight to the tower ladder but they put up a good fight.
Seems a little slow in attack. Yes interior were after the fire from inside but extention to adjoining house could've been prevented. Put that tower to work for initial knock
They had 3 lines operating. Can’t put tower ladder into ops until the 2nd alarm companies arrived on scene because they needed another engine to supply it. Members were still on the fire floor
Good video styler.thanks for all your coverage of fires wishing you and John all the very very best for Christmas and New year. Michael uk care home resident
Excellent video Skyler. Great detail and follow through. I hope those two members from E219 are ok. I couldn’t hear what the EMS chief said their injuries were but it looked like they walked down the fire escape. Anyhow stay warm up there
Great knockdown on such a fierce moving fire. Thank you so much for your great coverage. Command does a wonderful job of maintaining control of the situation. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
great videoing. but i also don't understand why they did not use the ladder truck to spray water. Where they waiting for an invitation? They could have gotten the fire out much, much faster. Thanx for any comments.
@@SkylerFire Maybe they should change they way they work so they save more property, this is just stupid way to work, wait until some one else comes ????
@@kentlaxfors421 They aren't waiting because they want to. They are waiting because they don't have the manpower. The 1st due engines already grabbed hydrants and stretched lines. You need an engine to stretch a line and to supply the tower. You aren't going to lay LDH hose by hand. They also have to wait for everyone to evacuate the fire floor. You don't put water onto a fire from the exterior with people inside. That creates a very dangerous situation. They had water on the fire well before the tower went into operation.
I wish you or The Maj. would do a video on who is in charge of the fire command when I see several assistant chiefs, deputy chiefs, battalion chiefs and etc. I know chief of department, chief of operations and chief of special operations but then it gets confusing especially when you have the several of the same ranks at a fire. Thanks
At the command post you will have the 1st due battalion chief and division chief at command post…. 2nd Alarm gets another Battalion Chief that gets assigned as RUL which is Resource Unit Leader. 3rd Alarm gets the Citywide Tour Commander that can be a Deputy Asst Chief or Asst Chief. 4th Alarm gets another Asst Chief or Chief of Ops. 5th Alarm gets the Chief of Dept at his discretion
@@SkylerFirethank you I just needed this "total confusion early in the morning" I know it all makes sense to everyone but at Monday morning just after 8am.
The first house that caught on fire was where I live with my parents sadly we lost everything would be so amazing if anybody could help us with anything. Thank you 🙏🏻
For us Europeans, we don't understand the American urban firefighting system. First they let the fire grow out of control and then they attack it with water.
They are old school. Go inside and fight it that way. I think that's a good idea, but with that much fire they should hit it from the outside to knock it down and then go inside. Keep in mind that they have a lot of tall buildings and that's the only way to do it is go inside.
Good question. And for starters just like like they said above this would have been a good idea to knock it from the outside then proceed in, which we call a transitional attack. I dont not have a solid answer for ya, but we REALLY emphasize life as our number 1 priority. A couple of things though...we realize the severity of burns that you get from steam and in the ideal scenario we like to have an engine company and truck company in there simultaneously completing extinguishment and confinement, and search and removal, placing the hoseline between the victims and the fire. This is a perfect scenario that sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. And It would be pointless to do if our victims are either steam burned or succumbed to smoke inhalation because we took too long outside. Thus we classify our style as aggressive firefighting. Unfortunately our duty is a necessary evil. If we take on a passive approach and always stick to hitting it from the outside, we pose the risk of our perishable skills and training becoming lost and void. FDNY is for the most part pretty consistent with the amount of actual work (fires) they get while other places in the North Eastern America may not see as much. So what happens when it's actually a confirmed entrapment or a downed firefighter that we have to retrieve but can't because we lack the skill and experience?
It’s amazing that the NYFD has the resources to dispatch 145 personnel to fight this fire. I’ve seen videos of rural departments that could barely scrape up enough guys to drive the trucks to the fire.
Nothing wrong with getting some additional training. With that many personnel not using SCBA inside the building, and that much confusion and delay in evacuating the third floor, they NEED additional training.
I'll never understand why people called the NYFD the best in the world. They are not even CLOSE to simply being the best in the U.S. Houston does it 2x better with 1/4th the personnel. Maybe they were the best before 911, but not now. (No, I'm not from Houston, I'm from the Ohio Valley)
@@SkylerFire Ok hero. Air should be on EVERY time you are in an interior fire. Just because you can breathe, doesn't mean you're not breathing toxic chemicals. Cancer is real.
@@bradleypryor5586 cant agree more. I see it every time on these FDNY videoes. Its sad. Get the air on, and go attack the fire. Thats why death is so common.
@@dgvideodk You are 100% correct. Air is free and the "I'm cool" factor of not being on air is long gone. Same with having the dirty gear. On-air and clean gear should be the new "cool". @SkylerFire sounds like a FF wannabe to me.
Rubbish they should be using air anytime they are inside a smoke filled building no matter how thick it is. There is a reason why departments like the FDNY have such high cancer rates, its because of poor leadership and not insuring the firefighters are using the PPE effectively. I take it you have never been a firefighter?
Couldn't they secure a hydrant? Two ladders up and yet no water being put on the outside. It looked like the lines running into the front door were charged so why no water cannon outside?
2 Lines off the 1st rig. On one hydrant, 2 lines off 2nd rig off another hydrant… tower ladder needed to be fed off another hydrant. They had to wait for 2nd alarm companies to arrive. Members were still on the 3rd floor can’t operate until they drop down.
With this video the chief is having to scream again and again for members to get out of the building so that tower ladders can operate, yet minute after minute goes by and still members haven't obeyed the order. I've seen this in other videos as well. What is going on here? Poor discipline? Poor communication?
Again a horrible Fire in Brooklyn !!! Coz Brooklyn is stand together and will help the People's who lost their Home Great Video Skyler Merry Christmas to You and your Family and Friends MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL
I am not a firefighter. However I do know that the sooner you extinguish a fire, the easier it is. Why don’t they just apply water from the outside? They just kept letting that fire grow. The sooner you get water on it, the sooner it goes out.

For us Europeans, we don't understand the American urban firefighting system. First they let the fire grow out of control and then they attack it with water.
FDNY does an interior attack, searching for victims. They cant start with an exterior line, it would drive the fire inside.

It’s amazing that the NYFD has the resources to dispatch 145 personnel to fight this fire. I’ve seen videos of rural departments that could barely scrape up enough guys to drive the trucks to the fire.

At some point..its time for tower ladder especially with the extention happening..
