Over two days of firefighting later and this massive apparatus was spotted folding and packing up after being put to the test for its real first assignment. The brand new 70-meter (230 feet) articulated telescopic platform dubbed "Tower 1" was deployed in the early morning hours on Friday August 11th 2023 to assist several other TFS crews. A large fire at a chemical plant factory was raging and numerous aerial ladders were used to combat the flames in a defensive method, meaning from the outside only. Other videos posted on our channel of this fire showed the tall fire truck with two firefighters on board its bucket applying a constant heavy water stream on the continuously burning blaze below. The amazing Tower 1 firetruck was inaugurated and welcomed to the service last year in 2022 and despite having been used already in a few minor instances at incidents within the past year, the August 11th fire was the first extensive use of it. One day after being deployed for this incident, Tower 1 departed the scene of the fire at the corner of Martin Grove and Vulcan Street only to be brought back on August 13th to assist with flare-up during which the footage in this video was filmed.

Very impressive fire truck
i like this tower
More large USA cities should have a truck like this
Toronto has some cool fire truck's, but tower1 is very impressive.
My good it's a monster
super cool
This is the one I've been waiting for!
Whats the price tag for a truck like this?
Bronto F70RPX on a custom Mack truck chassis. Total cost: 3.2 million dollars.
WHATTA MESS OF OIL ON THE GROUND,
I WATCH THE NEWS EARILER TODAY THEY HAD TO RESCUE BIRDS AND SO FAR 4 BIRDS HAS DIED,
SEVERAL FISH IN THE RIVERS HAS DIED AS WELL, THEY'RE KEEPING AN EYE ON LAKE ONTARIO HOPING THAT THE OIL DOESN'T REACH THE LAKE ONTARIO.
That is one impressive rig! Wish more departments had them, especially here in the States!
Big total loss, and scary to see what seems to be a the petrol train at 3:20
So, basically a Twin steer wrecker chassis with a tower bed. Very impressive!!
Waste of money. Cant make 90% of the turns in the city. Irresponsible purchase.
Not really irresponsible if its within the budget and can be used/serviced for more than a decade.
@@mrengine9 just because you can afford it doesn’t mean you should buy it. What didn’t they buy because they bought that? 5 ladder companies? It was tested in NYC. It failed. It’s too heavy and it’s turning radius is horrible.
@@vincentwalls9396 Toronto isn't as tight as New York and its got 230 feet of boom, of course its heavy.
What did it save.
