The thermal imaging from the drone is absolutely BRILLIANT. This is the first video that I've ever seen using this technology. That would be a very useful tool for firefighters at a relatively minor expense. Imagine the command chief being able to see the hot spots from the command post.

Thanks took a bit to dial in the right isotherm setting’s air temperature and altitude but it’s seems to be pretty accurate lined up with the fire footage to see the real fire. At this distance works well. Hopefully new one soon.
It sounds like you’re really impressed with the use of thermal imaging! It’s amazing how this technology can highlight details that are otherwise hidden, like seeing the heat from a fire or even just the state of a hydrant. If you’re into this kind of tech, there are plenty of fascinating applications out there in various fields.
Thank you for posting this, I especially love the drone and heat detector shots. It’s scary quickly and easily that fire spread into the attic spaces. Never underestimate the power and unpredictability of fire. I’m glad no one was hurt in this incident. Things can be replaced, people can’t 😢
With an abundance of fire fighters,and huge amount of eqpt. It didn’t look as though there was enough hose lines deployed! Certainly enough manpower and first line aerial trucks on scene it took forever to utilize these valuable equipment tools!
Fire fighter here this was atrocious they 1 should of had scbas on before getting out of that truck you see one guy putting his hood on after his jacket which is not the proper way should of already had it on. They should have deployed the bumper line immediately or went for a vent search hydrant should of been third priority the trucks have enough water to to go 30mins before needed more my guess is a poorly trained volly station
Hydrant out front of the house and a severe lack of water onto the fire. Absolutely no sense of urgency to get water onto the fire. TBH it looked like a $hit $how and a half.
This department would benefit from a review of their SOG’s regarding first truck on scene as well as additional training. It is not always easy to critique yourself but is very helpful! Where I’m at we shoot for water on the fire in less than 1 minute from first arrival. Not an easy goal as we are in the middle of nowhere without hydrants and 100% volunteer.
Actually not going into front suction save a little room for the truck. If your talking about letting the truck come in first, that wouldn't happen. Maybe 2nd in Engine might wait not 1st
I have pretty much the same view. speed counts for a LOT because small fires are easier to extinguish than large fires and fires don't wait. I'm not a professional nor a volunteer but I've extinguished a house fire fed by a natural gas pipe inside of a wall. I put out a truck fire. I put out a printing shop fire that started in a machine. I have fire extinguishers (4) at the entrance to my kitchen, extinguishers in my car and motorhome. My garden hoses (front and back) are always connected, ready.
Noticed that mailbox was not letting the ff complete full turns with the wrench. might want to advise the resident to relocate the mailbox. Great job and quick knock down boys!
That placement of the mailbox is in violation of the fire department easement. Simply put the homeowner didn’t care if he blocked access. Lots of homeowners are in violation of many easements. I see it everyday during my working hours. They think if it’s their property? They can do with it as they see fit? Many are unaware of the easemrnts because they are not told when the house changes hands. Town hall records will identify the easements if they are curious? Most don’t care.
10.50, The look of agony on the homeowners face when they fire up the cutting saw to cut thru the roof. I know the guy was hurting watching his home get destroyed. My heart is with him & hopes he was able to rebuild.
And at 8:38 when they were destroying the garage door and the homeowner was standing 25 feet away going, "WTF!!! Guys....I have the clicker in my pocket!!! If you wanted to open the garage you could have just asked me!!!!"
@@mattwatsonI’m a firefighter this was a shit show 1 the fact no one had there scba on n ready to go is huge no no the fact you’ll see one guy having to put his hood on n incorrectly at that then struggle to get his mask on is why you have that on the second they smoke/fire visible over the radio. 2 bumper line is a immediate go to line for this short of a distance no cross lay had to be pulled yet the eo could of hooked up all of that will guys did there search n started getting that car n front half out
great video, one thing for the first arriving engine considering the hydrant was right outside the house maybe utilize a smaller 50ft pony line instead of trying to flake out the 100ft, but still works just a lot more work and space consuming. overall great video
THANK YOU Jack ! , I was thinking the same thing, I thought every pump has a short 4 in supply line . and why were the guys off the first truck did not have there mask on , anyway just a observation . well long as everyone went home safe !
Excellent filming and editing etc with the video. Very creative and well informed info. That thermal imaging was incredible, you could see where the sun heats up black roofs, car covers, driveways as well as heat from the fire. Wow

Your service and time and efforts are deeply appreciated thanks to everyone who responds keep them safe out there job well done you should be proud ! Joe
Great job as usual. You arrived before the first due! Great interaction with the PD. Respectful and made me laugh when you said I do this for a living. That is an understatement!!
i don't get why they don't pull soffets and spray into that to help get the attic the water will hit the underside of roof and help slow the fire in the attic till they can pull ceilings and attack it
I’m on a rural very small volunteer fire dept. I noticed these pumpers do not have tanks on them? Ours have several hundred gallons that we can make use of before we need auxiliary water. Since hydrants are many times none existent, our 3,000 gallen tanker is always second truck to roll. It helps us be able to get water on fire quickly.
The big differences I see between US and Dutch (and most European) fire brigades are that our trucks carry up to 2500 litres of water with 2 pre connected lines and that our fire fiighters mask up while driving to the scene. So, it's out of the truck, grab the lines and the wet stuff is on the red stuff within 30 seconds.
Hydrant at end of dead-end street appears to have low volume. Second pumper has to reverse lay and go to another hydrant around the block. Need to assess hydrants with a pitot gauge. Older neighborhood's were not designed with modern pumpers in mind that can easily draw a vacuum on an old hydrant.
Just some things to consider: If a hydrant is dressed properly, meaning utilizing all 3 discharge ports to supply water to the pump, operators will get the most water possible from the hydrant. A single line from the steamer port will not allow all the available water to discharge. If the hydrant is dressed properly then the hydrant and water main system becomes the limiting factor in the water supply, not the hose, or the pump, or the operator. Most residential areas have water mains laid out in grid formation. Laying out a second supply line to a separate hydrant that is potentially on the same grid may or may not benefit the water supply operation. In some instances it may make the available water to the initial engine worse. The engine that laid out to the secondary water source also relied on a single feed from the steamer port, again limiting the available water to that apparatus. Another possible option would be utilizing a hydrant assist valve. The first arriving engine could have placed the valve on the hydrant, and the second arriving apparatus (quint) could have become the pressure boosting apparatus therefore eliminating the need to lay a second supply line. Of course it’s department choice but having a rear intake is a huge benefit when it may be common that the first arriving engine passes the hydrant or as in this case, stages just past it. Shorter lengths of supply hose are nice to have also to avoid pulling 100’ of supply hose out when 25’ would be sufficient. As has been said many times before, the actions of the initial engine company will dictate the way the rest of the incident plays out.
There's really no need for more than the one supply line on this fire. Most likely that's a dead end line, maybe a 6" main, and you're not going to get anymore out of it than you will with that one line. They also had a short section on the officer's side.
Scratching that itch - leaning on your water department to color code the plugs comes in super handy when making decisions about laying out that much LDH for a secondary water supply and doesn't hurt when the ratings bureau or underwriters are making decisions. Must be nice to have that kind of manpower or funding for the toys to pick it all back up.

Yeah I will never understand the US fire truck design. Like, it's so massive - surely there's plenty of room to fit a quick-response hose reel to the sides to get at least SOME water going right away?! Instead they faff around for ages setting up hoses and getting hooked up to the hydrant and just let the fire burn more and spread further in the meantime. Like, I've seen some videos where the fire should never have gone beyond the garage, and it ends up spreading to the entire property by the time they get water going.
@@DavidStruveDesignsconnecting to the hydrant has no delay on getting water. there’s already water in the engine. if you’re an efficient enough department, needing your little “quick response hose reel” won’t be a problem. there are also preconnected hose lines. the problem here isn’t how we do things or have things set, but how efficient the department decides to be. i’ve seen plenty of videos where the attack line team or person and the pump operator were the most efficient duo or group
The channel owner being first on scene to many fires in different districts is suspect to me. Must be a better explanation I have not found. I hope so.
This is very impressive ! God Bless the Family that, own that house! & Thank God, They were not in that awful, house fire! Tysm 4 this very impressive & dangerous house fire! ❤🔥❤🔥👍👃!
Not sure what that is at 9:34 flying thru the air. Looked maybe like an aerosol spray paint can or small portable propane bottle. It was on a pretty good flight going somewhere.
Slight criticism of the crew, While your hydrant crew is prepping the hydrant, the engineer should have been charging those hand lines to get some water on the fire.
Great job. Total respect to the firefighters. Good job. Water was on the fire you need to look harder. They have to look everything over to know what type of fire you have.
Nope that’s a 1 man job first thing they should of have all there gear on n second they should of used tank water first n pulled either a bumper or crosslay line
Did the ladder truck run over the first supply line from the hydrant out front? I'm surprised they didn't have a smaller length of five inch for these rare occasions when the hydrant is out in front of the house.
Great video. Good response and attack. The firefighters might have ventilated the roof sooner since black smoke was coming from the opposite side of the house. A bit of "Monday morning quarterbacking."
Give them a break they are volunteers they don't get a penny for putting there assess on the line, they do it because they love helping there town . Why don't become a volunteer and see how you do.
Volunteer here this is shit show gear should be on before getting out of the truck for one and two bumper lines exist for this exact reason. Three you sign a paper saying you understand this is dangerous n your willing to go into harms way. Doesn’t matter if your volunteer or paid you train as much as you can so you don’t look like this on a scene
I still don’t get why US fire fighters don’t mask up on the rig. I get that the captain should have a clear field of vision to asses the situation but especially on fire like this where the first two fire fighters can just grab a hose and get going while the officer makes a 360 and decides on a strategy masking up on the rig would save some time.
I'm really sorry, I hope that enough was saved and the house could be rebuilt...‼️‼️ •••• //- but when you see how slow the fire brigade is and before they start, until someone starts extinguishing the fire/-》 sorry, but that can make you sick [seriously and that's not the only time where you I have the feeling that they are extremely slow... without meaning that as a reproach, after all they were putting their lives at risk for us,... well, all the best for the future and good luck in repairing the house 😀☺️ ‼️‼️🙏
This was a atrocious response from no scba n structure gear dawned before arrival to not just pulling the bumper line n spraying then having the eo hook up to the hydrant n get the cross lay ready this is just bad on all fronts
As a German Firefighter i have two Questions ! 1. Wtf are the Guys without Safty Gear doing in the Smoke , damnit ! Something can explode or the Smoke him self is dangerous guys ! 2. You have the Hydrant in front of you and the House , why does it take so long to spray water at the House and the Garage ? That's not to say anything bad about the boys' work, but it has to be done faster and, above all, more safely with so many comrades on site ! Greetings from Germany ans stay safe
American firefighter this is all no no no. Safety gear/structural gear should of been on scba/breathing apparatus should of been dawned n armed. You’ll see a guy putting his hood on the wrong way those go on before the jacket for a reason. They hooked up to a hydrant when they have about 20mins of water in the trucks tanks to spray water right away from a bumper or crosslay hose the hydrant shouldn’t of been priority number one n could of waited till water was flowing n the tank started draining this is just not how we arrive on scene in the us n is most likely a poorly trained volunteer department
Nice video! Prob difficult to do but if you could play the scene audio during drone flight would be cool! Wish FDs had a first on scene truck with water onboard to quickly stop the spread. Once in the attic it’s done.
The car in the driveway is a final generation Buick LeSabre (00-05). Great cars (super dependable) but they have a fuel regulator that can fail with age and leak fuel all over the engine compartment (same design for the Impala, Bonneville, and a few others that use that 3.8 engine). Good idea to replace it, or inspect it regularly. If you are driving it and it starts to run poorly and you smell gas... SHUT IT DOWN IMMEDIATELY!
1:25 is that a neighbor or the homeowner asking "who are you sir?" but not getting an answer? So it's ok for you to ask questions but not them? It seems so disrespectful for people who "do this for a living" (who I assume are just civilians recording fires for "media coverage") to be wandering around an active fire scene looking for the best angles but are really just getting in the way. But that's what our society has become...people who think they have valid reasons to be in spitting distance of a raging inferno recording one of the worst days of someone's life. I'm not expecting an explanation, but if someone can enlighten me, please do.
And yet… you watched this video that this guy filmed and posted because it was great footage of a fire. The guy is just making his living. This is what “stingers” do. It’s what the news wants to see.
I do these videos for the learning of fire spread, not going to film someone’s worst day, trust me I’ve had some shitty days in my life. I get it. But this video makes a lot more sense then the other 50 people there with there iPhones filming.
@@jerseyshorefireresponse I personally went through this myself. In fact it is on UA-cam V.I. Fire Leamington. It is hell and you are at a loss. You have no idea what to think or do you are just numb. Thank you for what you do because it may help someone not go through what I did.
Honestly the response time on this is crazy over 20 minutes for the first fire truck to arrive wow if that was a major fire with people stuck inside they would of died
Have before didn’t on this fire as the scene was pretty busy and I was down the road flying out of the way. If I saw anything that was urgent I woulda walked up and showed him.
@@jerseyshorefireresponse, why don't you just join the fire department instead of following them around and getting chased about by the law. Maybe you could make a difference by actually fighting a fire instead of just filming and making commentary.

Firefighter here your correct they should pulled crosslay or bumper line n not worried about the hydrant right away trucks have plenty of water to last 20mins of spraying and then there’s the fact they don’t have there structure gear on nor scba ready to go

The thermal imaging from the drone is absolutely BRILLIANT. This is the first video that I've ever seen using this technology. That would be a very useful tool for firefighters at a relatively minor expense. Imagine the command chief being able to see the hot spots from the command post. They can see exactly where the fire is hiding to better position the attack.
Impressive how Technology can solve problems! Hoorah!
🌊🔥🌊
I thought it was really wild to be able to see the stream of water being sprayed inside the house due to the huge temp difference
Absolutely!! Brilliant it would definitely help command where fire or hot spots!! Great work!
Thanks took a bit to dial in the right isotherm setting’s air temperature and altitude but it’s seems to be pretty accurate lined up with the fire footage to see the real fire. At this distance works well. Hopefully new one soon.

From the front it looked like a small house but when I saw the aerial shot-Wow!
A strong Garden Hose could have contained the Fire in the Start. Once it gets hold G H won't work.
Praise to the Homeowner going back inside more than once to save his cat. That's what i would do.
The gents in the attic, I presume, the heat... OMG. Thank you for all you do.
The imaging was pretty cool and informative.
So sad for the people, glad they got out, such a pretty home!
Watching this gave me the thought of installing a firewall in the attic space, now open, between my garage and dwelling.
I know they are convenient, but so many fires start in a garage, I have to question the wisdom of that particular house design.
Sprinkler system too

The thing we as firefighters seem to be universally horrible at, is quickly getting some sort of water on the house.

@@DavidStruveDesignsconnecting to the hydrant has no delay on getting water. there’s already water in the engine. if you’re an efficient enough department, needing your little “quick response hose reel” won’t be a problem. there are also preconnected hose lines. the problem here isn’t how we do things or have things set, but how efficient the department decides to be. i’ve seen plenty of videos where the attack line team or person and the pump operator were the most efficient duo or group
Oh yeah that's brick township for sure, can't ask for a better spot for that fire hydrant 👍
The house still burned pretty much!!!!
Police officers routinely check who shows up for fires. Many times if it’s arson is a factor, the arsonist is there looking at their work.
Imagine being dumb enough to remain at the crime scene a person caused😂
The channel owner being first on scene to many fires in different districts is suspect to me. Must be a better explanation I have not found. I hope so.
This is very impressive ! God Bless the Family that, own that house! & Thank God, They were not in that awful, house fire! Tysm 4 this very impressive & dangerous house fire! ❤🔥❤🔥👍👃!
I love how they sometimes shoot the water anywhere but the fire
Nice flir camera showing the hot spots
lol. I liked your response to that cop. You have clearly had experience with cops dishing out some orders 🙂
Midway through I counted at least 20 guys and only 1 hose working. The hydrant in the yard must be for the Dog.
Not sure what that is at 9:34 flying thru the air. Looked maybe like an aerosol spray paint can or small portable propane bottle. It was on a pretty good flight going somewhere.
Slight criticism of the crew, While your hydrant crew is prepping the hydrant, the engineer should have been charging those hand lines to get some water on the fire.
Great job. Total respect to the firefighters. Good job. Water was on the fire you need to look harder. They have to look everything over to know what type of fire you have.
Nope that’s a 1 man job first thing they should of have all there gear on n second they should of used tank water first n pulled either a bumper or crosslay line
Impressive thermal imaging!
Did the ladder truck run over the first supply line from the hydrant out front? I'm surprised they didn't have a smaller length of five inch for these rare occasions when the hydrant is out in front of the house.
Great video. Good response and attack. The firefighters might have ventilated the roof sooner since black smoke was coming from the opposite side of the house. A bit of "Monday morning quarterbacking."
He went in to save his cat ❤
It's so crazy to see Ariel map of how close them houses are not as bad as metro but pretty tight great video and best wishes from Maine
YOu live in the tundra...most don't.
Excellent photography, including impressive thermal imaging of fire running through the attic. They'll be overhauling for a while on this home.
Give them a break they are volunteers they don't get a penny for putting there assess on the line, they do it because they love helping there town . Why don't become a volunteer and see how you do.
Volunteer here this is shit show gear should be on before getting out of the truck for one and two bumper lines exist for this exact reason. Three you sign a paper saying you understand this is dangerous n your willing to go into harms way. Doesn’t matter if your volunteer or paid you train as much as you can so you don’t look like this on a scene
Y'all did a great job.
Nice work brick FD and PD. They got the cat out! Practice and drills pays off! Prayers to homeowner!
Nice work Lol - try useless fat and slow 😂
Amazing footage, thanks for not yapping over everything. Good work.
Fire 🚒🔥 is so devastating my heart goes out to the people who live there ❤
Hey, awesome video! I am wondering, why did so many units show up? I get two engines and a ladder, but there were at least 3-4 more.
Stop calling fire apparatus units they're called companies
@@DanielGaffney-kq1zt After all, English is not my first language. Thanks for the note tho
“Doubtful “…. adorable 🤦🏻♂️ and the definition of heavy is different i guess in different places. Good response time on the video 👍🏻
Right in the front yard!! What a dream
Love the thermal drone camera. Side note, people that own the house at 22:04 said the hell nah with lawn work.
who every built the houses was very smart to put a fire hydrant in the year of the house the fire department don't have far to go for water
I still don’t get why US fire fighters don’t mask up on the rig. I get that the captain should have a clear field of vision to asses the situation but especially on fire like this where the first two fire fighters can just grab a hose and get going while the officer makes a 360 and decides on a strategy masking up on the rig would save some time.
A lot of them do. This is Jersey Shore, though....
Nice job, less than 1.5 minutes from arrival to water flowing.
What a great response from the local fire departments good job love to see these fireman in action
Are you for real ? Shocking arrival to water on time - it’s a laughable performance but typical of US firefighters, the slowest in the world !
I'm really sorry, I hope that enough was saved and the house could be rebuilt...‼️‼️
•••• //- but when you see how slow the fire brigade is and before they start, until someone starts extinguishing the fire/-》 sorry, but that can make you sick [seriously and that's not the only time where you I have the feeling that they are extremely slow... without meaning that as a reproach, after all they were putting their lives at risk for us,... well, all the best for the future and good luck in repairing the house 😀☺️ ‼️‼️🙏
This was a atrocious response from no scba n structure gear dawned before arrival to not just pulling the bumper line n spraying then having the eo hook up to the hydrant n get the cross lay ready this is just bad on all fronts
You know shit is getting real when the B truck ( brush) shows up to put some work in. Nice job putting it out guys
I was wondering if the brush truck was there simply to provide more manpower, rather than the vehicle’s capability.
As a German Firefighter i have two Questions ! 1. Wtf are the Guys without Safty Gear doing in the Smoke , damnit ! Something can explode or the Smoke him self is dangerous guys ! 2. You have the Hydrant in front of you and the House , why does it take so long to spray water at the House and the Garage ? That's not to say anything bad about the boys' work, but it has to be done faster and, above all, more safely with so many comrades on site ! Greetings from Germany ans stay safe
American firefighter this is all no no no. Safety gear/structural gear should of been on scba/breathing apparatus should of been dawned n armed. You’ll see a guy putting his hood on the wrong way those go on before the jacket for a reason. They hooked up to a hydrant when they have about 20mins of water in the trucks tanks to spray water right away from a bumper or crosslay hose the hydrant shouldn’t of been priority number one n could of waited till water was flowing n the tank started draining this is just not how we arrive on scene in the us n is most likely a poorly trained volunteer department
As A volunteer ff captain of 20 years they approached this fire totally wrong. As an IC I would do thing different. I'm trained up to ICS 100-800.
@@StolenValor24 Absolutly !
Nice video! Prob difficult to do but if you could play the scene audio during drone flight would be cool! Wish FDs had a first on scene truck with water onboard to quickly stop the spread. Once in the attic it’s done.
my bad as I forgot to records the foreground audio on scene there was a lot going on, next time.
Ein Hydrant direkt vor dem Haus. Sehr praktisch.
the first line should have been off tank water --and as others have said -why not have a pony section of LDH ?
Agreed n they did I saw a bumper line but this comes from not training enough notice they didn’t have gear on nor scba ready to go on arrival
I subscribed as soon as I saw this. 15:58 Great drone work showing thermal images. Dang that's cool.
The car in the driveway is a final generation Buick LeSabre (00-05). Great cars (super dependable) but they have a fuel regulator that can fail with age and leak fuel all over the engine compartment (same design for the Impala, Bonneville, and a few others that use that 3.8 engine). Good idea to replace it, or inspect it regularly. If you are driving it and it starts to run poorly and you smell gas... SHUT IT DOWN IMMEDIATELY!
Thanks for the info!
He will look into that on his next Buick. This one is toast.
I enjoy this video 😍
I'm sharing my missions too
1:25 is that a neighbor or the homeowner asking "who are you sir?" but not getting an answer? So it's ok for you to ask questions but not them? It seems so disrespectful for people who "do this for a living" (who I assume are just civilians recording fires for "media coverage") to be wandering around an active fire scene looking for the best angles but are really just getting in the way.
But that's what our society has become...people who think they have valid reasons to be in spitting distance of a raging inferno recording one of the worst days of someone's life.
I'm not expecting an explanation, but if someone can enlighten me, please do.
And yet… you watched this video that this guy filmed and posted because it was great footage of a fire. The guy is just making his living. This is what “stingers” do. It’s what the news wants to see.
That was the police officer i answered I cut the audio out cause I said my full name.
I do these videos for the learning of fire spread, not going to film someone’s worst day, trust me I’ve had some shitty days in my life. I get it. But this video makes a lot more sense then the other 50 people there with there iPhones filming.
@@jerseyshorefireresponse I’m also sure you’re able to help out the fire departments and provide the videos for training purposes!!
@@jerseyshorefireresponse I personally went through this myself. In fact it is on UA-cam V.I. Fire Leamington. It is hell and you are at a loss. You have no idea what to think or do you are just numb. Thank you for what you do because it may help someone not go through what I did.
Honestly the response time on this is crazy over 20 minutes for the first fire truck to arrive wow if that was a major fire with people stuck inside they would of died
"they would of died" really?
I like the view from the ground better. Never saw a green fire truck before.......
Do you ever show live drone coverage to chief during fire ?
Have before didn’t on this fire as the scene was pretty busy and I was down the road flying out of the way. If I saw anything that was urgent I woulda walked up and showed him.
@@jerseyshorefireresponse, why don't you just join the fire department instead of following them around and getting chased about by the law. Maybe you could make a difference by actually fighting a fire instead of just filming and making commentary.
@@gregggoss2210 with out guys like him you wouldn’t have anything to watch and complain about. I for one appreciate his content and videos. Excellent training value and invaluable footage.
@@gregggoss2210 he probably makes more in a month off UA-cam than a full time firefighter does.
US firefighters, all the equipment- but no damned idea how to use it. Slow is an understatement !
Feel like y’all from “over there” all type the same comment but y’all let shit burn down all the time 😂😂😂 “but in the Ik we have a fire out in 12 seconds” come lend a hand then!
Any update on what caused the fire? It’s been a month.
I will check on that for you.
@@jerseyshorefireresponse appreciate it

Nice video! Thanks.
4:54 cat gets the hell out of there
AHAHAHAA that was so funny HAHA
To be honest never even saw that till now
Young man, your work is very good.
Congratulations !👏👏
dont give the fake firefighter/reporter something to swell his hed,this guy runs and yacks at the same time,hopefully no more,hope he has a regular job by now
The first engine arrives at 4:55 water on the fire at 6:16
Aspergers?
@@RLTtizME Huh?
Phew, glad they brought the brush rig…
I am sad for this owner 😢
I'm not a firefighter and don't know much about fighting fires but it looked like there was a long delay for getting the water on it.
Firefighter here your correct they should pulled crosslay or bumper line n not worried about the hydrant right away trucks have plenty of water to last 20mins of spraying and then there’s the fact they don’t have there structure gear on nor scba ready to go
9:35 what launched into the air?
that appeared to be out of the car, maybe shock cylinder or air conditioner condenser they sometimes let go. None the less , good eye
@@suzylarry1 its burning magnesium reacting to the water from the fire department
A really good response with a quick knockdown 👌👌👌👌👏👏👏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Why not use the deck gun?
Fear of putting it out in 30 seconds.
