Hopefully the two firefighters were okay, and glad that the residents were able to get out in time. Thank you to all firefighters everywhere for protecting the citizens of your coverage area.
The next to useless ladder is parked where the Multi Tool of firefighting SHOULD be parked. The Engine! With a Line of Sight on the burning material. In this case, right where the camera is. However, the Fountain Statue mentality of USA firefighting takes over. The Deck Gun should have shut down within 5 seconds after the flames were shut off so the rest of the job could be performed surgically while using the least amount of water. That takes THINKING. Then, once they finally get the ladder set up, it joins in to dump even more water on that one spot that couldn't burn if you dropped napalm on it. 12:00 While that one spot will never burn again after seeing 5000 gallons of water dumped on it, the rest of the house fires right up. But that ladder refuses to give up on that one spot and hopes the water level will rise up enough to drown that second-floor fire. 13:00 Notice where that ladder stream is going. When you look at how long it was putting water into the next block, keep in mind, the video was edited. 40:30 Now that they have vented the roof to allow the attic to breath and ignite, notice how the smo0ke coming out the gable end window and second floor windows are still flowing smoke. It is not going out the hole in the roof. Now flames are coming out of the attic window. The second-floor smoke has still not gone up the hole in the roof. 47:20 Now that they have opened the roof to let the fire breath much better, look at the conditions now. A coordinated attack does NOT exist in the USA fire service, nut it sure sounds good on paper! How does VVing improve conditions on the lower levels? This is the USA fire disservice people. The ones you consider to be your heroes. I'll bet that property owner doesn't think so. If you aren't a responsible and competent worker, you can forget about being anyone's hero.

Thank you for THAT performance?
Great video!
So why was my original comment deleted. Nothing negative
