A fine example of what a high pressure hose reel can do. I've had people from the States abuse me about that, saying you NEVER fight a fire with the reel, but we do it all the time in Europe, and as you see in this example it works. A US department might spend a long time pulling hundreds of feet of hose off the truck as the fire spread, when a fast use of the reel would knock the fire down.
Yes indeed most fires now can be dealt with the mordern HP reel and if needed it gives time for hoselines to be layed whilst the fire is being tackled, better having some water going onto it than none.
Totally agree , rowed with plenty of armchair yanks about stretching lines , securing water e t c . Good stop , as you said good use of a high pressure hose reel . You don't need to knock the building down just put out the fire .
We in Germany don´t use the high pressure hose (just in case of vehivle fires)...depends on the fire. In case of big structural fires the hose with more valume may be favourable....
Just by watching one video that favors your statement does not show anything and if bring any firefighters from Europe to any of the big city in states especially New York city we would have no city left but if you have firefighters from the states go to Europe we would still put the fire out.
American fire department is one big joke and ought to be ashamed of themselves. European fire brigades and uk fire brigades are the best of the best elite.
WOW, was all this knock down from only two fireman Crap in the united states it would take at least another 15min from on seen to putting water on it, then with 4 trucks, 25 guys and cutting holes in the roofs, they might be done in about 1.5 hrs with 3/4 of building loss.
Ya I used to watch the American videos but then I realised they just make alot of noise about arriving then do fuckall when they get there except cause more damage, more interesting watching the Europe and Russia fire fighters
Well the building itself was not on fire, now was it? It appeared to me that the fire was limited to the exterior....the awnings perhaps. It may look dramatic, and it certainly had the potential to communicate to the building had not the fire brigade arrived in a timely fashion, but let's not make out like this is some ass kicking fire.
I'm not saying it was an ass kicking fire , I was just committed on what I saw , regardless of size of the fire in the u s a they love cutting holes in the roof of fire effected buildings . I think this is mental . I did 16 years as a firefighter in the u.k b t w .
@@stevebailey6403 IMHO there are certainly fires where vertical ventilation is not at all required. This fire seems to be one of them. And that's because it does not appear to have involved the building proper. BTW, I also understood that you were giving us a shot... so I gave you one back. My point is twofold. First, that referencing this piss ass fire as some sort of a benchmark for firefighting tactics is laughable. Secondly, there are more than 1.2 million firefighters in the USA (31% career; 69% volunteers). Which were you referring to? Do you think that they all operate the same? Show me a fire blowing out the 3rd floor window in a fully occupied, non-fireproof 4 story tenement, with reports of people trapped on the top floor rear at two o'clock in the morning. Reference a fire like that, and then we can quibble about tactics. We can talk about line positioning, forcible entry, laddering, search & rescue, ventilation, manning, etc. Fair enough?
:43 seconds from arrival they have water on the fire. Granted it’s not much more than a garden hose but it’s amazing what quick water will do. A lot of American departments(and yes I work for one) would take 3-4 minutes laying out lines before water ever hit the fire.
hahahaha You're right, in the United States you do everything big! But in Spain the larger caliber hoses would not be functional. In Spain as in the rest of Europe, we have street distributions that derive from ancient cities, some even from medieval times. Our historic districts have very narrow streets, which brings us a narrower emergency vehicle, with smaller deposits. We cannot throw too many liters per second, since we would run out of water before putting out a fire. Those hoses fire clean water and need to deal with fires. To obtain it, we have an extensive catalog of laws and regulations to prevent large-scale fires, such as fire-retardant building materials or passive fire systems. A greeting from Spain!!
Garden hose? You’re showing your ignorance . This is high pressure hose reel delivering 230lpm at 40-50 bar .. that’s 550+ psi to you. What garden hose is capable of that?
jay will Obviously I know it's fucking high pressure. The garden hose reference was to diameter & volume. It actually wasn't meant to be a criticism, it worked great!
@@firepower782 haha nobhead! Always makes me laugh when some know-it-all yank jumps on these videos with the garden hose comment- you definitely don't negate your ignoramus reputation! What garden hose is 20mm diameter plus 250lpm... this one looks 25mm+ by the looks of it.
Absolutely amazing! One engine and one HP reel line. Water flowing in seconds. Fire knocked down quickly! I wonder if driver hooked up to a hydrant? How much water does this engine carry?
@@donnachristie1342 Yeah, i never understood that. Why not using those seats where the SCBA is mounted in the seat. Its a lot easier to put on and it saves some seconds.
Super impressive. The wheels on the truck had barely stopped rolling before a reel was pulled out and the fire quenched. If this had been USA firefighter from what I have seen on video's in here, they would have stood at least 5 minutes before a ruddy thing had been done let alone get water on it. Well done guys, one and all.
Different strokes for different folks, NIST Govs Island experiment disproved and proved many things. I am now converted and think as much as you can, fast as you can, with whatever you can. And truck mounted turrets are way under used, that is now the first thing going in seconds if doable . Granted every situation is different and each job must be evaluated on its own variables, but the science behind what NIST science showed blew me away. Especially the Impact on heat and reducing temps by so much in so little time was astounding. It might take generations to,change the mindset and culture. Regardless though, all,have to,work with what and who ya got, better that than no one and as long as you get home after shift, all is good! Don’t forget there was a time when no one talked hoses, it was buckets!Stay safe out there y’all
Not hating on US firefighters or anything, but I've seen a lot of videos of them and I say this in a comedic sense, but if this fire was in the US, 5 trucks would come initially, then 50 fat firefighters would come out of the trucks, take 10 minutes to equip, draw 20 lines and then the 10 ladders would come and flatten the whole place with those powerful streams of water.
Buen trabajo, en 30 segundos apagando el fuego. En USA necesitarían tres grandes camiones, 20 bomberos y cinco minutos para conectar una Red de mangueras. Para dejar todo quemado y lo que no inundado.
But what was involved with fire? The exterior awnings? From this video, it doesn't appear that the fire had communicated to the interior of the building. You use THIS piss ass fire as a benchmark?
@@PeterNichtlustig0815 So you ARE using this piss ass fire as some sort of a benchmark in order to evaluate interior structural firefighting procedures. I thought so! Thanks for the clarification. It explains a lot.
Isnt the US the only country now that makes the firefighters drag hundreds of feet of hoses that weigh hundreds of kilos to extinguish a fire, everywhere I have been we jsut use the quick attack reel and done and dusted, when I went to the US it took them like almost 10 mins to get water on the fire after arrving.
Dude if he could do that with a puny 1" reel line , what we fight brush fires here with , imagine what he could do with a 2 1/2" attack line . There is something to be said in the speed and accuracy here , and the whole time if they needed bigger guns they bought time to get them there , time to establish a hydrant or maybe they call it a plug , and replenish and keep the flow steady , very smart.
This is surely an 25 mm with 50 m length or 32 mm ( with 30 m length) high pressure hose. It's standard on nearly all european fire trucks only used for quick response.
Pumpers in the Netherlands usually have 2x 100m HP reel. For these kind of structure fires like in the video, in The Netherlands the 1st due pumper mostly will have 2 FF's with 1 HP reel line go in for fire suppression/rescue, 2 FF establishing water supply and building the low pressure lines. If there are reports of people possible inside, 4 FF with 2 HP reel lines will go in for fire suppression/rescue and the 2nd due pumper will establish the water supply/building low pressure line etc. But there is a lot you can do with the HP reel lines..
El tren de salida para un incendio de estructura no deberia ser escala + bomba + coche de mando? O eso es solo para vivienda? Me soprende que con una bomba urbana ligera y el cabo/sargento en primera linea enchufando con la manguera el mismo😂 lo solucionen
Si en otros casos he visto que suele ser asi como dices ,En este caso fue bomba urbana ligera ,y después en el video también creo ver en el minuto 8:26 creo ver otra bomba urbana ligera o.un nodriza de 10.000 litros para refuerzo todo depende del coordinador de bomberos en la centralita 112 de emergencia que es el que activa los diferentes recursos
I am so glad everyone here knows how to fight American fires better then we do. We have to contend with wooden framed structures. I have seen European fires that went way beyond what we could have handled in America with our First alarm assignment. Just today i watched a UK fire where the firefighters were throwing rocks at the windows to break them to spray water inside. I have a lot of respect for the Euro firefighting system, but sometimes you need to go and get it
Never mind. Mocking Americans makes Europeans feel better. A lot of fire departments, specifically in eastern Europe, have to deal with aging Equipment, under-financing and difficulties to find new staff because the young brats all want to work in an office. They would be grateful for what is at hand in an average US town. So just ignore them
Try watching more of your own fire fighters on here.......why? because the camera does not lie,and I time how long it takes to get the wet stuff going including finishing putting their gear on etc.......in general.....pretty slow! Also give us all the link to that UK vid and let us make our own judgement!!
@@OldSchool-px1xk OH think that is just a European problem, I am very lucky to have Great equipment but it does me no good when we barely can put one crew on the street.There are parts of America that have very old outdated equipment
@@kenharding8437 You can find good and bad Firefighters anywhere. I have used high pressure and i like it. I have also have rolled up on a house fire with exposures pulled a 2.5 inch / 63.5 mm hose and knocked the fire with about 600 gallons- 2270 liters. Its all about the battle of heat vs cooling Most American engines have 3 different sized lines preconnected. A 1 inch/25 mm hose reel 100-200 feet long 33-66 meters, 2 to more 1-3/4 inch/45 mm, 1 2.5 inch /63 mm flat lay hose 200 ft/66 meters of each with nozzles attached, a 1000 gpm water canon preconnected. Tank sizes are 500 gallons/2000 liters minimum most engines top out around 1000 gal rural engines can carry as much as 3000 gal. The engines have to carry 1000 feet/300 Meters of supply line. from 3 inch/75 mm to 5 inch/127 mm. Different systems for the same result
I've seenAmerican fire fighters do exactly the same regarding throwing bricks to break windows. I'm not making that up i watch a lot of clips I personally don't see a problem with that. Andy England 🇬🇧
No bueno. Terrible firefighting. What's this with only one truck, no chrome, no ginormous flags, puny little hose, water started in under one minute and only couple girly fireman, all running around, as if there was some sort of an emergency and fire extinguished in about 4 minutes?! Come to US to see how it should be done.
I missed a lot of SUVs impersonating command vans. And the firefighters arrived fully dressed, including breathing apparature. Everyone was wearing a helmet and some were running!
![[Madrid] 5 emergency vehicles to 4 calls in 1 video](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/5ia9NESrxfs/mqdefault.jpg)
45 seconds from arrival to first water on the fire. That is amazing. Very fast work, well done.

I am from the states and I agree with you. If you can put foam through it that's even better. I see people pulling large lines they can't handle.
Yes indeed most fires now can be dealt with the mordern HP reel and if needed it gives time for hoselines to be layed whilst the fire is being tackled, better having some water going onto it than none.

That's normally in Holland
@@weeze2007 same here in the UK. Andy England 🇬🇧👍
Same procedure in Belgium. Mostly two high pressure hoses.
We do it to in Denmark... And we normally also use two highpressure hoses.
That was an amazing quick response, you guys got straight into the fire and put it out , nice work guys :)
I'm impressed, 4 guys with one truck and hose . 😎
Fantastic give credit where its due again the Americans are getting left behind
If that was in the us, the whole building would have gone before 100 blokes bothered to put any water on it.
Truth !
In Europe, they came up with a very cunning idea to the problem of finding a water supply.
Bring some with you..
What makes you an authority on the topic?
You clearly don't know anything about the American fire service! Let alone the fire service in general!
American fire department is one big joke and ought to be ashamed of themselves. European fire brigades and uk fire brigades are the best of the best elite.
I like to see the "rapid attack hose" off the drum, not pulling hoses all across the scene while the fire keeps happy burning! Kodos
Water on the fire 43 seconds after arrival on scene is damned impressive.
Good training video for the US firefighters to learn
WOW, was all this knock down from only two fireman
