On my department (I live in New England, so we have really harsh winter's) we had an engine that was in service for 33 years. We still ran calls in it daily. Honestly I was sad to see it go.
We have a fleet of 70 trucks here in st. Louis. A majority of the front lines are 2000 smeal quints. They are just barely hanging on. As a fire mechanic it sure keeps me buissy
Most of the time it's just a preset pressure. Almost never do you actually have to do math. Most of the computations for specific hoses are already done, so all you have to do is know how much hose of a certain size is being used, and what nozzle, then just pump at the pre-determined pressure on the chart. Takes longer to explain it than it does to look it up.

THIS is a brand new 2020 Pierce Fire Truck and today i'm gonna show you the quirks and features of this fire truck, but first, dont forget to check autotrader.com on my thoughts on this fire engine
@@cybersquire well probably most importantly that is not a fire truck, that is a fire engine. And very rarely do you have only 3 people on an engine. Also the engineer almost always stays with the engine. Oh and there is no way in hell that department is keeping that engine for 10-15 years. Maybe 5... Maybe... But yeah that's a couple things.
Christian Towse almost all civilians use engine and truck interchangeably, that's not gonna change. So many departments run with 3 on an engine. Many departments keep rigs for more than 10 years. We have 20 year old trucks and engines (we need more funding).
@@85square I guess it's possible right about now there's a bunch of novel technologies being jammed into cars. They're still more safe and fuel efficient through. It's hard to tell whether someone's just moronically nostalgic or making a real observation.
I had a very close friend who is a firefighter and he gave us a tour of his Firehouse. That included the regular fire truck as well as the ladder truck that was really cool, my daughter couldn't stop smiling from ear-to-ear and she was made honorary firefighter of the day. There was a woman firefighter at the station and my daughter says she wants to be just like her when she grows up. I told Melody that she was a positive role model for girls for breaking into the boys club and I told my daughter that you can be anything you want as long as you put your mind to it and don't let no one tell you you can't do it. 😊😉🚒
I’ve been a VOLUNTEER fire fighter for about 15 years. Hands down, it’s the best and craziest thing I can ever imagine anyone doing. Love this video, that’s for paying tribute to fire fighters.I Love Donut and the crew. -Kory, Nova Scotia. Canada
I have so much respect for firefighters. Back when I delivered for Domino’s I did this massive order to my local fire station, and it was seriously SO COOL. The building was massive and made of brick, super clean and spacious, and there were medals and plaques on the walls along with all sort of firefighting paraphernalia. People were walking around with so much purpose. Everyone was completely jacked and looked like they could each single-handedly lift a firetruck with their bare hands. They were some of the nicest people I’ve ever met, they laughed with each other and greeted people as they walked in like they were all best bros. It felt like a totally different world, one far better than the one the rest of us live in. The best part of all this is that I am not exaggerating even the slightest bit. (Except the part about lifting a firetruck, that’s a bit of hyperbole. But just a bit) The guy I delivered the pizza to joked that his coworkers would probably be disappointed that he wasn’t grilling steaks for his day to make everyone lunch. (Honestly, if I was a firefighter I’d expect to be eating grilled food each and every day) I don’t remember ever fantasizing about being a firefighter when I was a kid, but I can definitely see why so many people do: they’re so respectable, so heroic, and so awesome. They truly are the real heroes in our communities.
That is kind of to be expected. There is a not of technical knowledge that goes into the job. That being said, I did cringe at him saying the 5" supply line only pumps 250 GPM lol.
Being a firefighter, I have to give you props for really getting everything right and taking the time to get the terms correct and learning all about how everything works!
“Old school easy coast thing” is called a halligan. Its a firefighter’s best friend. And depending on if it’s volunteer or professional, the amount of people in the truck can change, most with a capacity of 10
TurtleSauceGaming Yes. Us on the west cost (Oregon) use our beloved Irons. And we have 5 seats on our main engine at my station so I don’t know where people are getting these numbers. That’s crazy to me.
MidgetMan 420 nah, kissimmee Fire EMT here, most things are very expensive on the engine and rescues (Stryker stretchers cost 60-70k, lifepak 15 defibrillators are around 40k) but adapters are probably maybe $200 to be honest
@@PacificoAyala321 in comparison to a majority of everything else, yes very cheap. The married set of haligan and flathead axe was around $350 at the cheaper ends.
I absolutely love the halligan tool (the old school east coast tool). It does more than just pry doors open if you need it to. We use to make sure people know how to use it to open a car hood like a can, if the hood couldn't be opened other ways, and the jaws of life were already in use for something else.
We do it all the time in my dept we wet it with the booster line “the rubber hose that was on the back” scrub it with car wash and use the same line to rinse it then dry
I work for the company that makes the nozzle you used at the end! As well as many of the other parts relating to water movement on truck. Im a machinist at Kochek LLC and we make Fire Equipment. Was super neat to see some of the stuff I make on daily im action
Full time fireman and Car enthusiast here! Thanks for representing fire deptarments with this video. Love the donut media spin to firetrucks, way more entertaining than everything we usually see that is super old school. Good job on the blastoise at the end!
In my years as a Firefighter, I have never seen an Engineer leave the truck EXCEPT in an extreme emergency. They do not get involved in the fire fighting. The captain and firefighter and possibly a 4th crew member handle it. The Engineer has to monitor that truck carefully. Also, that kit you pulled out was an axe and a Halligan tool. You can get into or out of most anything with those.
In Australia, we have 4 per fire truck. Unless it is a light tanker (Toyota Landcruiser), then it's only 2.. And for us bush firefighters, our 1.4's carry 2 people as it is a single cab, and from 2.4-4.4, we try 3-4 ff's. And we don't have all this engineer/ff/captain mumbo-jumbo. Everyone on a truck is a firefighter.
A little bit off, the driver never leaves the truck his sole purpose is to protect the truck and to pump water. If he left to hook up a hydrant he'd be putting everyone at risk
Colby Milnor that's incorrect. the words "never or always" often come before an untrue statement. there are times the driver will leave the apparatus. every department is different.
If possible a fire engine will have at least 5 firemen on it. 1 driver/engineer, 1 captain, 1 auxiliary firefighter (e.g. does hydrant hookups, helps pull hoses), 2 attack members (guys who are fully suited up with SCBA, operate the fire hoses, ready to enter the structure). In my department the driver also operates the pump controls. Captain sizes up the fire and forms a strategy, speaks to bystanders and gives orders, auxiliary is usually a junior firefighter who hooks the truck up to the hydrant, helps to pull hoses and does any other gofer work that the captain needs (e.g. move supplies, smash a window if ventilating using that method, etc). Attack guys if they're not already suited up with SCBA (breathing apparatus) will immediately suit up upon arrival. Everyone has their roles and the team should be ready to attack a fire in about 1 minute of arriving at a scene. Breathing apparatus usually have about 30 minutes of air. But you can only plan to be in the structure for about 15 minutes tops. Once the BA is halfway out of air, it's time to exit the structure and let a relief team in who will continue the attack if it's called for.
Donut Media thank you for giving us firefighters a good mention. Seems like people forget about us time to time, especially being an volunteer FF I love every call I get with my brother. Happy holidays and Merry Christmas to all of you at Donut Media 🤙🏻💯
We're out of sight out of mind brother, people especially on the vollie side don't understand the juggling act volunteers have to do to meet our federal and State certification requirements and department call volume to be considered an active member but quite honestly I didn't join the fire service for thank yous and appreciation I joined it to help people in their darkest days and fight fire they know we're there we're just not talked about all the time if at all really the best way to so support for your local fire department if your unable to join is to go to your town meetings and vote
I am a german volunteer firefighter and I was totally surprised by some of the features of this car. Many things are totally different but many are also the same. Great Video
he didnt. the lights just turn of slowly to prevent a power surge. its called load management. if you notice the switch lights on the ceiling turn off one by one. he hit the "master switch witch controls all the lights. one by one.
I wouldn't say they do reviews since no negatives are brought up and they dont personally drive the cars they base the videos on. More like a educational video
Our town might be a bit rural, we have old Bill who has a lawn tractor that pulls a small wagon with a 5 gallon Lowe's blue bucket full of water and a bag of sand in another bucket. He makes his own siren sound with his mouth. As most homes are 1 to 2 miles away from eachother he rarely gets to the fire in time to do anything about it, but his house (also known as Bill's fire department) hasn't burned down in a little ovet 4 years now.
Since the the power goes to the rear wheels this means a fire engine can drift but I imagine tryna intial D a 40,000 pound water brick is harder than doing the same thing with a mini
That' not true that there are only 3 crew members on an engine: there are usually 5! One is the engineer, one is the captain and the other three are the firefighters
Yeah I thought that strange as well. It may be Oxnards staffing, which honestly seems very strange or dude was told "Drivers here, captains here and the firefighters in back" and he took it to mean there was only one. Im thinking it was the latter since there is a bunch of other bad info in here as well
@@mike_minnick I know South Metro does that in CO, as well as using those crews to cross staff other apparatus (tenders, type 6, ARRF, etc.), but I think they usually have crews of 4 now. Some departments along east coast too that I've seen doing it.
@mike minnik it doesn't make much sense that on that engine there are only 3 people also because of the crew cab wich would be pointless if the crew was made of only 3 people. I'm pretty sure other apparatuses use a crew of three (maybe a tanker). But yeah, i agree that this video isn't very precise
My cousin is a firefighter in New Jersey and he is a driver, his department's engines have on board water for a couple of minutes of fighting. They also have an extra water level gauge on both sides behind the rear doors on the cab. It is a bank of 4 big lights that when on are Blue, Green, Yellow, Red (I think, it has been a couple of years since I've seen it) and instead of the more accurate bank of lights on the driver's side panel. These lights can be seen from a distance by anybody. I find it a neat concept because they use it to gauge how much time they have before they all run out of water in the on board tank before they guy finding a water source starts getting yelled at. This is because sometimes they are in an area that has no access to water (like a car fire on side of the highway) my cousin loves it. In my hometown, most of the firefighters are trained paramedics.
NoooUGH that is what the dry chem extinguishers are for. We used our water can on a small hay fire on the side of a highway and it worked great but for kitchen fires dry chem is the best bet.
My fav model of firetrucks is the Pierce Saber. Its the most common one used near where I live and that siren SCREAMS. I usually see firetrucks going through my road that live at. It's really cool to see them.
Ok, I must give some background I am from San Diego, CA and this is an interesting video that highlights firefighting as a profession. In my city, we on an engine we have a crew of 4 people and 4 on the truck as well. Most of the video was good like the air horn on the pump panel to notify for defensive operations, and the set of irons (an axe and halligan tool married together). But in Europe, they have 6 people on an engine and that would include an engineer, captain, attack section leader, attack section, water section leader, and water section. Overall the video was very good but missed a lot to the point I had to post this comment for my well-being and for educating the public thank you very much if you read this all.
across Europe there are many different tactics, even within a country there might be different approaches. You might see up to a crew of 9 on a German Engine, while there might be only a crew of 3 on a Norwegian Engine. At the same time some countries have seperate apparatus for exterior and interior attacks
Next time you see a firefighter, tell them thanks! Now what emergency vehicles should we cover next?

Firefighter: Need water!

"Erecting a water hose!"
Most of the time it's just a preset pressure. Almost never do you actually have to do math. Most of the computations for specific hoses are already done, so all you have to do is know how much hose of a certain size is being used, and what nozzle, then just pump at the pre-determined pressure on the chart.

the easiest way to know if there's enough pressure is that they will ask for more over the radio... kinda easy

No never. i had to do a test with fire extinguisher when I was a kid though. just saying dude wasn't wearing all that much gear that was the point
jay bay and the pants dummy
Nathan Smith but not the scba some of the heaviest gears
Watching this as a firefighter makes me wonder how much other stuff they get wrong on topics I dont know about
Yeah... Lots of it is so wrong!
I'm curious... what did they get wrong?
If you can get your hands on a fire truck, how hard is it to find a firefighter to explain basic shit?
@@cybersquire well probably most importantly that is not a fire truck, that is a fire engine. And very rarely do you have only 3 people on an engine. Also the engineer almost always stays with the engine. Oh and there is no way in hell that department is keeping that engine for 10-15 years. Maybe 5... Maybe... But yeah that's a couple things.
Christian Towse almost all civilians use engine and truck interchangeably, that's not gonna change. So many departments run with 3 on an engine. Many departments keep rigs for more than 10 years. We have 20 year old trucks and engines (we need more funding).

City departments just have more associated wear and tear
@@amistrophy I help build and service fire trucks, I know the older ones are built better.
@@85square I guess it's possible right about now there's a bunch of novel technologies being jammed into cars. They're still more safe and fuel efficient through. It's hard to tell whether someone's just moronically nostalgic or making a real observation.

Engineer: Hey look, buddy, I'm an Engineer. That means I solve problems.
I had a very close friend who is a firefighter and he gave us a tour of his Firehouse. That included the regular fire truck as well as the ladder truck that was really cool, my daughter couldn't stop smiling from ear-to-ear and she was made honorary firefighter of the day. There was a woman firefighter at the station and my daughter says she wants to be just like her when she grows up. I told Melody that she was a positive role model for girls for breaking into the boys club and I told my daughter that you can be anything you want as long as you put your mind to it and don't let no one tell you you can't do it. 😊😉🚒
I’ve been a VOLUNTEER fire fighter for about 15 years. Hands down, it’s the best and craziest thing I can ever imagine anyone doing. Love this video, that’s for paying tribute to fire fighters.I Love Donut and the crew.

I have so much respect for firefighters. Back when I delivered for Domino’s I did this massive order to my local fire station, and it was seriously SO COOL. The building was massive and made of brick, super clean and spacious, and there were medals and plaques on the walls along with all sort of firefighting paraphernalia. People were walking around with so much purpose. Everyone was completely jacked and looked like they could each single-handedly lift a firetruck with their bare hands. They were some of the nicest people I’ve ever met, they laughed with each other and greeted people as they walked in like they were all best bros. It felt like a totally different world, one far better than the one the rest of us live in. The best part of all this is that I am not exaggerating even the slightest bit. (Except the part about lifting a firetruck, that’s a bit of hyperbole. But just a bit)
The guy I delivered the pizza to joked that his coworkers would probably be disappointed that he wasn’t grilling steaks for his day to make everyone lunch. (Honestly, if I was a firefighter I’d expect to be eating grilled food each and every day)
I don’t remember ever fantasizing about being a firefighter when I was a kid, but I can definitely see why so many people do: they’re so respectable, so heroic, and so awesome. They truly are the real heroes in our communities.
Coming from a firefighter.. this has a fair bit of inaccuracy.
That is kind of to be expected. There is a not of technical knowledge that goes into the job.
That being said, I did cringe at him saying the 5" supply line only pumps 250 GPM lol.
Benjamin Weisman thank you from another firefighter
From another firefighter, maybe so, but I suppose it gets the point across
Beginning with that's not a fire truck but a fire engine...
Can we get some corrections from the real firefighters please.... For science
Being a firefighter, I have to give you props for really getting everything right and taking the time to get the terms correct and learning all about how everything works!
Not quite everything right, but yeah he did good.
Every time he says Oxygen 😑
@@justinv433 yeah I picked up on that too. Also I think he said the extinguishers with just water in it were used for kitchens.
Except for calling the air tanks oxygen. They aren’t oxygen tanks. If they were, they’d explode in Fire conditions
This was a dope video and whoever was in charge of transitions was hilarious
Since it’s known as “Pumper”
You guys missed the perfect chance for *Pumper to Pumper*
😂😂
A rotator tow truck should be next one you do
th3tr yes! Double steer axle big boi!
You mean a tiller?
Tiller makes me think of farm equipment
Rian McDonald Not a Tiller, a Rotater that’s the Tow Truck with the boom on a turntable.

Appreciate that your team took the time to get a lot of lesser known terminology correct, bravo!
“Old school easy coast thing” is called a halligan. Its a firefighter’s best friend. And depending on if it’s volunteer or professional, the amount of people in the truck can change, most with a capacity of 10
Addapp “old school east coast thing” well he’s not wrong
Do west coast people just no use a halligan?
Also, what fire truck you using? We can barely fit the standard 6 in ours.
TurtleSauceGaming Yes. Us on the west cost (Oregon) use our beloved Irons. And we have 5 seats on our main engine at my station so I don’t know where people are getting these numbers. That’s crazy to me.
I used to be accountable for a set of tools including one of those, but we always called them "hooligan tools".
10?! What kinda truck you riding in? Most is usually 6 or 8 without an inner compartment
“Picks up adapter”
*This looks expensive*
Are they?
MidgetMan 420 pretty sure
MidgetMan 420 nah, kissimmee Fire EMT here, most things are very expensive on the engine and rescues (Stryker stretchers cost 60-70k, lifepak 15 defibrillators are around 40k) but adapters are probably maybe $200 to be honest
Uh 200$ for an adapter
Nah, pretty cheap 😂
@@PacificoAyala321 in comparison to a majority of everything else, yes very cheap. The married set of haligan and flathead axe was around $350 at the cheaper ends.
7:39 "there's only one way to open this clap"
me 20 years later being a firefighter: claps to open but does not open
Sad times broski, ty for being an actual hero tho.

LOTTERY GUY [Subscribers take Half of Winning] well actually many forest service members have controlled burns to help the environment
It creates combustion in the engine 🤔
Bro you gotta get out and read Fahrenheit 451
They do have survival stuff
Opposite daaaaaay
I absolutely love the halligan tool (the old school east coast tool). It does more than just pry doors open if you need it to.
We use to make sure people know how to use it to open a car hood like a can, if the hood couldn't be opened other ways, and the jaws of life were already in use for something else.
But can you use it to pressure wash itself?
Dariune you got 4 minuts to wash it 😅
Technically yes
Probies only require buckets and brushes.
that's incest
We do it all the time in my dept we wet it with the booster line “the rubber hose that was on the back” scrub it with car wash and use the same line to rinse it then dry
The first two tools you picked up are called "the irons"
ioletsgo jarhead they are also called a married pair
Quess they are made of aluminium
ioletsgo jarhead the one other than the axe is called a halligan bar
@@jessecarpenter6434 in england we call it the hooligan tool :D

Full time fireman and Car enthusiast here! Thanks for representing fire deptarments with this video. Love the donut media spin to firetrucks, way more entertaining than everything we usually see that is super old school. Good job on the blastoise at the end!
whoever edited this deserves a raise
Uhmmmmm I say he went crazy with the VFX..... overboard
In my years as a Firefighter, I have never seen an Engineer leave the truck EXCEPT in an extreme emergency. They do not get involved in the fire fighting. The captain and firefighter and possibly a 4th crew member handle it. The Engineer has to monitor that truck carefully. Also, that kit you pulled out was an axe and a Halligan tool. You can get into or out of most anything with those.
Crossed irons, arguably one of the most useful things you can find at the fire department accept for the coffee machine
As a firefighter. I am very impressed with the research done, so that the host knows what he’s talking about. Good job!
11:06 "the ****pit is actually very driver focused"
3:29 not every truck carries 3 dudes, my sister station's engine carries 6. We minimally staff with 3, prefer 4.
David Seitz yes same for my town
In Australia, we have 4 per fire truck. Unless it is a light tanker (Toyota Landcruiser), then it's only 2..
And for us bush firefighters, our 1.4's carry 2 people as it is a single cab, and from 2.4-4.4, we try 3-4 ff's.
And we don't have all this engineer/ff/captain mumbo-jumbo.
Everyone on a truck is a firefighter.
@@Hellcat007 In Poland also, only separate designed driver/medivac/pumpguy rest go to action and most experienced gives order's
LOL at 8:47 when I saw that cat there I laughed so hard for some reason LOL 😂 😂 😂 😂
12:21
ILL TAKE YOUR ENTIRE STOCK
A little bit off, the driver never leaves the truck his sole purpose is to protect the truck and to pump water. If he left to hook up a hydrant he'd be putting everyone at risk
Right! I was like "uhhh usually second due lays in from the hydrant" lol
Not in all jurisdictions. Some city and county fire fighters are reduced staff weigh cut hours so sometimes the engineer is asked to chip in and help.
Colby Milnor that's incorrect. the words "never or always" often come before an untrue statement. there are times the driver will leave the apparatus. every department is different.
If possible a fire engine will have at least 5 firemen on it. 1 driver/engineer, 1 captain, 1 auxiliary firefighter (e.g. does hydrant hookups, helps pull hoses), 2 attack members (guys who are fully suited up with SCBA, operate the fire hoses, ready to enter the structure). In my department the driver also operates the pump controls. Captain sizes up the fire and forms a strategy, speaks to bystanders and gives orders, auxiliary is usually a junior firefighter who hooks the truck up to the hydrant, helps to pull hoses and does any other gofer work that the captain needs (e.g. move supplies, smash a window if ventilating using that method, etc). Attack guys if they're not already suited up with SCBA (breathing apparatus) will immediately suit up upon arrival. Everyone has their roles and the team should be ready to attack a fire in about 1 minute of arriving at a scene.
Breathing apparatus usually have about 30 minutes of air. But you can only plan to be in the structure for about 15 minutes tops. Once the BA is halfway out of air, it's time to exit the structure and let a relief team in who will continue the attack if it's called for.
9:51 It took so long to lift they had to wait until the next day XD
Donut Media thank you for giving us firefighters a good mention. Seems like people forget about us time to time, especially being an volunteer FF I love every call I get with my brother. Happy holidays and Merry Christmas to all of you at Donut Media 🤙🏻💯
Keep up they good work bro. We all love ya :D
We're out of sight out of mind brother, people especially on the vollie side don't understand the juggling act volunteers have to do to meet our federal and State certification requirements and department call volume to be considered an active member but quite honestly I didn't join the fire service for thank yous and appreciation I joined it to help people in their darkest days and fight fire they know we're there we're just not talked about all the time if at all really the best way to so support for your local fire department if your unable to join is to go to your town meetings and vote
I don't, but that's because I help design these bad boys. 😉 It's almost an everyday thought for me.
My disappointment is very high, I heard no federal Q2B
These edits are insane 😱
the ediiting makes my heart happy
I am a german volunteer firefighter and I was totally surprised by some of the features of this car. Many things are totally different but many are also the same. Great Video
Yeah, i am really wondering if we should adapt the american system or if they should look at our german system, i believe in our system :D
You are not a firefighter if you said the video is great
Stop watching movies man....
@@normandysenica9378 What do you mean exactly? Things in the US seem to work a lot different, I just know the things in germany.
Hm, interesting, what's different over there? If you'd wanna mention. Lol I'm from the Northeast and we mostly have volunteers around where I'm from.
Well I wasn't expecting this, but I've ironically been watching a lot of response and ride along videos recently. Lol so this is really cool!
Bruh the light makes it look like you are in a green screen lol
"This is expensive" *puts back*
BOI THE FIRE TRUCK ITSELF IS EXPENSIVE 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Who else saw him fail to turn off the lights?
he just started to realize when they cut the scene.
he didnt. the lights just turn of slowly to prevent a power surge. its called load management. if you notice the switch lights on the ceiling turn off one by one. he hit the "master switch witch controls all the lights. one by one.
@@youngharlemv Yup, never underestimate the destructive capability of electrical load dump in a vehicle.
@@AndrewFRC135 I'll dump a load on your vehicle
youngharlemv well,
It turned off too slowly that it made it look awkward for him
It’s an entire vehicle dedicated to saving lives. It’s a vocation I highly admire!
Editor Deserve an Oscar.
I cant believe they went from reviewing lambos to a goddamn firetruck
They already did with a squad car
What is so bad with that?
That Fire Engine cost almost S900,000...
Both are very cool and expensive.
I wouldn't say they do reviews since no negatives are brought up and they dont personally drive the cars they base the videos on. More like a educational video
What is the point of disliking this video I don’t understand
They are probably arsonists.
Or fire school dropouts.
Or they can't accept anyone other than James hosting Bumper 2 Bumper.
Or it's not a "fast boi" and they don't appreciate these things
Because they work for the competition. 😉
Our town might be a bit rural, we have old Bill who has a lawn tractor that pulls a small wagon with a 5 gallon Lowe's blue bucket full of water and a bag of sand in another bucket.
He makes his own siren sound with his mouth.
As most homes are 1 to 2 miles away from eachother he rarely gets to the fire in time to do anything about it, but his house (also known as Bill's fire department) hasn't burned down in a little ovet 4 years now.
I think it’s funny how he is showcasing a Pierce and at 1:27 he shows a Rosenbauer
6:17 love the giant hairy legs, editor had fun with this one.
Since the the power goes to the rear wheels this means a fire engine can drift but I imagine tryna intial D a 40,000 pound water brick is harder than doing the same thing with a mini
Ik what I'm looking up on YT now
That' not true that there are only 3 crew members on an engine: there are usually 5! One is the engineer, one is the captain and the other three are the firefighters
Yeah I thought that strange as well. It may be Oxnards staffing, which honestly seems very strange or dude was told "Drivers here, captains here and the firefighters in back" and he took it to mean there was only one. Im thinking it was the latter since there is a bunch of other bad info in here as well
@@mike_minnick a lot of departments have minimum staffing of 3, and usually that's what you run with.
@@skitzojedi2505 i know thats a thing with volley companies, just never saw a paid crew with only 3 people.
@@mike_minnick I know South Metro does that in CO, as well as using those crews to cross staff other apparatus (tenders, type 6, ARRF, etc.), but I think they usually have crews of 4 now. Some departments along east coast too that I've seen doing it.
@mike minnik it doesn't make much sense that on that engine there are only 3 people also because of the crew cab wich would be pointless if the crew was made of only 3 people. I'm pretty sure other apparatuses use a crew of three (maybe a tanker). But yeah, i agree that this video isn't very precise
the person editing this had way to much fun
Especially including KSI into a unit of measurement
I keep remembering the scene that unprotected firefighters hosed the burning Reactor 4 in *Chernobyl*
My cousin is a firefighter in New Jersey and he is a driver, his department's engines have on board water for a couple of minutes of fighting. They also have an extra water level gauge on both sides behind the rear doors on the cab. It is a bank of 4 big lights that when on are Blue, Green, Yellow, Red (I think, it has been a couple of years since I've seen it) and instead of the more accurate bank of lights on the driver's side panel. These lights can be seen from a distance by anybody. I find it a neat concept because they use it to gauge how much time they have before they all run out of water in the on board tank before they guy finding a water source starts getting yelled at. This is because sometimes they are in an area that has no access to water (like a car fire on side of the highway) my cousin loves it.
In my hometown, most of the firefighters are trained paramedics.
Water is one of the worst things to use for a kitchen fire. Grease fire + water = more grease fire.
NoooUGH that is what the dry chem extinguishers are for. We used our water can on a small hay fire on the side of a highway and it worked great but for kitchen fires dry chem is the best bet.
I can honestly be proud of where my tax money goes with this one.
@x x yes, I think only Rosenbauer AREFs and Ladders gives costs. But pump's really should be cheaper
Pure joy in his face when he fired it up.
6:16 - So Nolan ain't wearing any shoes, socks, or even slippers? 😂
I remember this was the first donut video I ever watched and I haven’t stopped watching since. Best decision ever 🤘🏼🍩
What about that RTR Mustang at 14:18 tho? 👀 👀 👀
My fav model of firetrucks is the Pierce Saber. Its the most common one used near where I live and that siren SCREAMS. I usually see firetrucks going through my road that live at. It's really cool to see them.
My department just got a new tanker and it’s the nicest looking tanker I’ve ever seen and the department has seen in their history
Ok, I must give some background I am from San Diego, CA and this is an interesting video that highlights firefighting as a profession. In my city, we on an engine we have a crew of 4 people and 4 on the truck as well. Most of the video was good like the air horn on the pump panel to notify for defensive operations, and the set of irons (an axe and halligan tool married together). But in Europe, they have 6 people on an engine and that would include an engineer, captain, attack section leader, attack section, water section leader, and water section. Overall the video was very good but missed a lot to the point I had to post this comment for my well-being and for educating the public thank you very much if you read this all.
across Europe there are many different tactics, even within a country there might be different approaches.
You might see up to a crew of 9 on a German Engine, while there might be only a crew of 3 on a Norwegian Engine. At the same time some countries have seperate apparatus for exterior and interior attacks
i like firetrucks and moster trucks
