The gentleman who owns the farm is one of the largest farmers in the state. Owns just over 8,000 acres and runs 2,200 dairy cattle with no debt. He was fully insured.
The best exposures protection it´s to put the fire out ASAP!!!. From portable pond, that pumper tanker could have discharged a 1.250 gpm fire stream for 30-40 seconds 90% control.
I always worry about spontaneous combustion when I put my hay away each year. I wounder weather an over head water sprinkler would do anything, until the fire department got there?
No point in putting fire out when structure is total loss! May as well let fire consume everything or you just have bigger clean up. Just protect savable property and let fire clean up the mess.
Ryan Ehlis , that is all good and well, but you still need to protect the exposures from the heat, the barn is lost but the buildings around it can still be saved.
Ppl need to have their brans away from every things else and have a sprinkler system and where they're milking cows and they need to also have a sprinkler system workouts are to stay in the winter time if they're in a barn it is very sad to see Barnes so close to other things that catch on fire I don't understand why people have to build so close to Barnes It's sad and I'm glad no one got hurt and no animals got hurt better people live out away from the city they need to have sprinkler systems in all barns homes and milking powers so nothing like this will happen I'm glad everybody was all right God bless from Kentucky
The problem with barn fires is... It's a barn fire. Nothing good will come out of it, anywhere. You just hope they don't blast stumps, and keep the stuff in the barn...or heat it with propane.
It’s a barn, it will be ashes before a county gets anyone with a trackhoe on the way. And how many farmers don’t have a tractor and plows onsite already? That might give a faster response time. It doesn’t matter anyway, digging a ditch sure won’t stop all that radiant heat and flying embers. It’s called contact burgers and marshmallows. Now thank the firemen for putting water on everything else and have a bbq, anything else is just a waste of time and could lead to losing everything.
Little hard for you to make that remark with what you see in this video? For all you know that was a response time of only a few minutes. Once a barn is that engulfed the fire department's next priority is protecting other structures near. Where have you ever heard of a fire department that is "too lazy to come"? That is one of the dumbest things i have ever heard!
Barns burn hot and fast, this video could have started only a couple minutes into the fire. Living in a rural area our rule has always been if you can’t put water on it yourself then it’s a loss, that’s how fast they go. You can see firemen there only a couple minutes into the video, all they can do is protect other buildings. It’s hard to understand for most people but in a case like this we really just want it to burn all the way down. It’s a safety hazard to leave anything standing, we can clean it up ourselves if it’s just ashes and insurance works in months rather than years. If the firemen there care they will protect what they can and let the rest burn.
@@mattmoschkau2831 Ditto. Barns are full of hay (highly flameable), grain dust (highly flameable), usually very old and dried out (highly flameable), wired in a very haphazard manner (that's what happens in 99.9% of the barns out there) and have alot of other things that just make them an absolute tinder box if they start to go. You only have seconds when one of these start.

maybe he needed a new and bigger barn and this is the way you get a new 1
I am sad for people who have their barn or houses bran down I hope they can get a new barn soon
Gotdaaaaaayum..this is where you get on the radio and call everyone and any dept within miles to come help. Been at a few like this
why? everything burnt down already. fireman can stay home and eat donuts all day will make no difference.
Unbelievable Heat! Good stabilization on your camera... iphone?
Wow that will be a complete loss hope no animals were in there !!
Yea. No horses or other animals hurt.
well done firemen for coming all that way with the shiny red trucks to save some wooden pallets
Mental note: When we rebuild the NEW barn, let's put a sprinkler, fire suppression system in it!
12.26 as the roof of the barn collapses. Two guys meet to discuss how much to rebuild. A bit of a fixer upper....have it fixed in a few days. 😂
Power connection on front of barn short circuiting, 2:30 - could start a fire.
already did, DUH!!!!!!!!!
Why are they spraying the fire, instead of protecting exposures. You ain’t putting that barn out, but the garage next to them is about to flash.

Anything helps, it can cool down areas that are still without fire

Did anybody tell them they can move the hoses to the side to hit more of the fire ?
I hope any livestock or barnyard animals or pets or cats & dogs if they was in there got out ok.

And don't forget about the oxygen and acetylene takes for their cutting torch.
The smoke looks like a Tornado close to ground
Sadly there will be no barn finds in that barn
yep melted classic :(
Can't believe they couldn't save this! Maybe they needed someone else at the well pump handle to pump up and down faster.🤣
I don’t hear anything
another 3 stooges fire department!!!!!!!!!!! spraying the roof of the house while the side in enflamed!!!!!
Hope first engine on seen called for 2nd alarm
I hope once they left the fire house he called for a 2nd and 3rd
Tragic
Such a shame.
Well aleatse they came lord
Barn collapses at 12:15
It's called contact county and have them contact someone with a trackhoe to separate buildings so you dont lose everything

where'd this happen
It says right in the description.
Dale is 14 miles west of Appleton or 40 miles southwest of Green Bay.
In my pants
I see a barn burnt down
Write that off gone before they got there
And that's how you get a new barn
Insurance doesn't put very much value on old barns even though they are irreplaceable.
I live in the yellow home up the hill from it
Nobody cares where you live
ron hugepenis ...l care, l just don't give a shit where you live Stubby
Ron, that's one of the problems with the world today. People just don't what happens to others as long as IT'S NOT THEM.
Sorry my bad. The word care should have been in that statement.
Spontaneous combustion from manure build up.
No. That never happens. There was no hay in it either. It would take days to get a barn full of hay out.
Oh lawdy lawd Jeezuuus
That was an ugly one
Maybe the fire-department was too lazy to come and didn't give to ducks
