    This was a great illustration of "Protect your crew first." Structures can be replaced a lot easier than trained firefighters. When they found they had a walking fire out of easy reach, they got their people OUT. And made sure they were out before they started up the master stream. It's a pleasure to see folks this professional at work. They contained the fire as best they could and looked like they prevented it from spreading to the neighboring structure, and got everyone out of the fire structure alive. I'd call this an unqualified win.

      I'm a firefighter from Northern California, 15 years, EastCoast fire fighting infuriates me. What is it about actually putting out fire from inside the building that East Coast firefighters don't, can't, or won't comprehend? There was absolutely no reason whatsoever to evacuate the structure. Only cowards fight fire from the outside and I do not understand this whole sitting on the ground shit, you will never see that in NorCal. You call it master stream, we call it get the fuck off the ground and go put out the goddamn fire.

Also, the search/rescue teams and interior attack teams performed exceptionally. Steady and disciplined execution. (Slow is smooth, Smooth is Fast).
    This type of fireground efficiency doesn't just happen on its own. It is the result of 100"s+ hours of continuous training, practice, along with a culture that everyone on the dept owns.
    Well done

      Did all that horse shit you spouted out make you feel better about yourself? Are you even commenting on This fire or some other one? Do you mean with 35 years of experience you couldn't have vented those windows and gotten hoses up the stairs to the second floor and stopped the fire before it burned the roof off? Fires are supposed to get smaller after the department arrives. Also, firefighters are not supposed to willingly allow themselves to get into hopeless and useless situations where they have to bail out in a life-or-death panic. My God you fit right in.

    It’s nice seeing a OIC really paying attention to what’s going on . Especially when it comes to Smoke , it tells you exactly what a fire is doing . The color , the density and the volume lets you know a lot . You could see in the beginning stages of this video that smoke had Flashover written all over it . I’m glad the OIC called for the emergency evac . He mostly likely saved lives . It’s also up to the crews on the inside getting water on that fire . In this case it sounds like the fire was already in the attic space so that alone will make getting water on the fire difficult. The only thing i really don’t agree with is having guys on that roof hitting hot spots . That roofs integrity is compromised. Why not just use a truck to handle any hot spots on the roof ? Either way great job by all , As much as we try we can’t save them all . Again great job by the OIC . Run the job don’t let the job run you . Stay safe out there

      The crews that were on the roof, sounded the roof extensively prior to stepping on it...furthermore, the firewall between the two units did exactly what it was supposed to do, and if you look, the firefighters stay on the unburned side...they were definately not put into a dangerous situation as you see it.

Stays calm Sticks to the basics and pays close attention to detail . And I stand corrected with those guys on the roof . I didn’t realize at first watching this video that they were on the opposite side of the firewall . That definitely changes everything . I still wouldn’t have had them up there . But I feel better about it knowing that firewall was there. I’m all for aggressive firefighting and doing what it takes to save lives and property, I’m just always sketchy when it comes to roof ops and when you have that much fire in the roof area . In those situations I don’t put anyone near a roof . Especially when I have a ladder already in operation . Either way, again great job by all . Stay safe out there .

      They probably tried , but it looks like this fire had a jump on them before they even arrived . Once that fire got into that attic space it just took off on them 🎉. They probably tired but if you look at those interior conditions it pushed them right back out . At that point it’s just not worth putting anyone in harms way trying to get back inside .
      The only other way to get to that fire other then an interior attack would be to trench cut that roof . But again , at that point it’s just not worth putting guys up there . Once that fire self vented , put a ladder up and let that master stream handle it . Just like they did .

      5. They have lines at their feet that one person could be directing at the soffit vents.
      All that from one still picture. That fire could have been controlled until an interior crew could have gone through the ceiling. I know how the human mind works at that Low end of the work scale. If there are victims to "Save," firefighting goes right out the window. The fire gets bigger and the adrenaline rush increases.
      That's why I say, a firefighter's mind set has to be on Protection by eliminating the threat first, because it is faster than getting fully dressed, assembling an entry team, getting the door open and then searching through a smoke filled and unfamiliar house to find victims when you have no idea where they are.

    One of the things I always wanted to experiment with during my career was piercing nozzles. These fires in the attic can run very quickly if you don't catch it early or act aggressively. When it does get ahead or so you don't have to immediately open a ceiling dropping the smoke into possible rescue areas why not put piercing nozzles through the roof. The ceiling remains intact a little longer buying interior crews time. It could also cool the area enough to possible prevent smoke explosions. They could be deployed quickly with minimal placement of men on the roof. They could also preserve the integrity of the trusses if done quickly. Just a thought.

    Out of curiosity, why were all the windows being broken out on the second floor. Wouldn’t that feed the fire and create new flow paths for the fire to travel? In the time it took to break all the windows, the aerial was never utilized either. Maybe there’s a good explanation, I’m just confused. At the end of the day though, looks like the fire is out and everyone is safe. Good work fellas!

    • @straytrons3450
      @straytrons3450 Рік тому +7

      Once the fire vents vertically you want to keep the fire flow going that way. It also helps the FF's in the structure by reducing heat load, provides a known fire path, and gives ground lines a point to get water in the structure.
      The ladder pipe can't be put into operation until all the FF's are out of the structure. Hitting someone with that water stream will hurt them and can cause structural collapse. Depending on the apparatus these flow between 300 and 1000 gal's a min. That is enough water to pin someone to a wall or the ground.

      @JoshK589 The windows were not being broken out until the order to get out was given...if you look at the intensity of the smoke at that time, the upstairs was ready to flash and it was hot with no visibility...getting the smoke out at this point was important as crews were still getting out...this helped with heat, visibility, and chances of flashover.
      Also, once the structure is not occupied, it gives outside crews a place to shoot water to try and darken it down more effectively.

Once had to fight a fire wearing three piece suit and tie when they stopped us from going to dinner on the shore.

The local fire department doesn't come to help.
      Firefighting fires on board ship is much harder. Everything is concealed spaces. So instead of the fire going upwards, it goes everywhere and on us.

      It is a complex problem. To build houses that don’t burn to the ground within a matter of minutes, would make them even more expensive than they are. They are already so expensive most people can’t afford to buy one.
      We have a housing shortage that is getting worse. It is much worse in some places than others. An area with a fast growing population is especially bad. Multi family dwellings can’t keep up either.
      Something has to change in materials or construction, probably both, that can make them more resistant to fire. How many void spaces are in this structure? That makes design and engineering important factors. Fixing it is all hands needed with ideas and insight to see which ideas are better than others. Because of the vast differences in climate and other factors, this is not a one solution fits all kind of problem.
      The one thing that cannot be denied is that what is happening in new condition now doesn’t result in resilient housing. They are a hazard to residents and firefighters.

      @Cessna Driver Where in the world did I say we could/should build *fireproof* buildings?
      My exact words were “…more resistant to fire.” That is a big leap to fireproof.
      A bank vault might be fireproof but I don’t see how any dwelling, single or multi family, could be fireproof. The closest we get to fireproof is buildings like hospitals with doors rated to resist fire for a very long time that deploy when an alarm is set off. That confines the fire to one section. Apartments are built to compartmentalize the apartments as long as residents don’t do anything to compromise the design like leaving doors open.
      Look how fast the roof failed in this house. A house built before prefab trusses made from engineered wood came along would take much longer to fail. That is time for people to get out safely and even save a precious heirloom. They give firefighters more time to use aggressive tactics. They might be strong against hurricane strength winds, but not fireproof. Japan has proven that it is possible to make buildings virtually earthquake proof, but not tsunami proof.

    SCBA's with loose waist belts when operating on a fireground is something you don't want to see. It poses risks of loosing the SCBA. When someone pulls on the SCBA in order to evacuate they could pull the whole set off.

      Of course they do serve a purpose...but to backup what you say, how many injuries and/or deaths can be directly attributed to your claim? I have never heard of any.

      @@thejfrd2490 I have no statistics about it. But even if it is 1, it is 1 too many. I think we should agree that SCBA's are PPE's and that every PPE should be worn correctly in order to perform correctly. In this particular video it is highlited by the fact that a couple of firefighters get pulled out of the second floor. Persons on the outside cannot see if the SCBA's are worn correctly and do pull on them. Even if everything went OK at this fire, I do think it should be a point of interest since it does pose a risk.

    A single engine on the Bravo side using it's deck gun would have been far more effective than all of those hand lines. They had room to put 3 engines in there, and they could have drawn water from the lake.

    I don't know which is sadder:
    ◾That someone needed a house that big.
    ◾That someone would let a house that big set on fire. (No Sprinnklers/Remote monitored home security system?)
    ◾That they'd refuse to leave.
    ◾That for some reason another person would refuse to leave ALSO !
    ◾That people spent their lives building a gorgeous palace like this, only for some lazy, privileged shmuck to make repeated bad decisions that turned it ALL into charcoal.
