The FDNY will be as loud as damn possible until you move. If you don’t move well let’s just say your ears are gonna be blown off. Also you can be as mad as you want for them “being to loud” but they don’t give a *damn*
Perhaps, but it's already been proven that our hearing has significant problems, when it comes to working out the location of a constantly loud sound, as there are always going to be echoes of that sound. For someone in a vehicle, in NYC, the echoes are going to be even worse, as the buildings are going to be reflecting that sound everywhere and constantly. Is it no surprise then, that drivers who can't see the firetruck/s don't move, because they actually have no idea as to where the vehicle/s are approaching from? This is why firetrucks in many countries have a primary siren, which despite being very loud on its own, has an alternating tone. Regardless of the echoes, you will discern the location of an alternating tone siren far quicker than a constantly loud sound.... and respond to it much sooner. The problem is, in a place like New York City.... that constantly loud sound is just another sound mixed in with a whole load of constantly loud sounds. Drivers will quickly move out of the way of police cars, because they use the 'bird chirp' siren sound in heavy traffic, and because of the tones (short sharp blasts), it's really easy to discern the location.
@VerilyVerbatim Pretty sure there was a lawsuit in NYC because of the hearing loss these loud sirens cause. edit: actually a group of firefighters were suing the siren company for failing to put adequate shrouding around the siren to protect their hearing
@@VerilyVerbatim I agree, and you can just imagine that your more full of shit than a backed up sewer. The premise is simple. if you hear a emergency vehicle, Look for it and move the hell out of the way, it’s not like if you hear it, you’re never gonna find it, you look for it. if you can hear it from further away than that’s a good thing, it means that the sirens are doing they’re job. So don’t pull that “blaming the victim” bs, because in reality, the firefighters are the victims of you base on how ignorant you are and how much of a burden you become to they’re path of completing they’re job. You don’t need to over complicate the premise of how loud the siren is or what it should spound like.
@Ryan well, they should to at least get out of the way, and everyone on a intersection should stop when they hear or see the vehicle and follow accordingly to stay out the way. That’s how we do it here in the us. You won’t need about running a red light if everybody stops and gets out of the way.
Lesson #1 for tourists -- Manhattan is very noisy. Mostly due to FDNY. (Gotta Luv 'Em, tho) Lesson #2 for tourists -- do NOT have a heart attack in MidTown. You will die before the first fire engine or ambulance can get to you. My suggestion -- Ladder 4, Ladder 24, Engine 65 and Engine 23 need TRAIN HORNS.
Half the fdny was going to the wtc plus departments from outside nyc and plus the nypd and a shit ton of other agencies. There were probably thousands of vehicles responding at once
I wasn't born, or alive when 9/11 happened but my dad was in the city to tell me, the FDNY was pretty silent since EVERY fire truck to exist in the FDNY responded and there was damn traffic, not even civilian traffic, it was FDNY creating traffic so they just silently responded if that makes sense.
I've been in a ride along with FDNY Ladder 10, one worker was off so i had a free seat in the truck, I saw the chauffeur yelling at pedestrians and stupid drivers, even though the crew knows that the pedestrians and drivers don't give a fuck
Fdny 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 love respect and appreciate you guys thanks great catch as usual ! Joe
German Horns: "Hello, can you pleasy make way?" American Horns: "Get putta the way you b.....d or i`m gonna make you loose your ears". THat`s what i call sirens
Im from new York and frequently visits NYC and is planning to move there in the future so all the many trips there this is normal for people like me max volume is what it would actually sound like
The conversation between these car drivers and the firetruck must be like: FDNY: Drive! Car: There's a red light. FDNY: DRIVE! Car: I can't FDNY: Oh you will. Wait, where's my air horn? There it is. Ah, some german guys in New York City. Air horns like this would never be allowed in Germany because ... they're toooo loud. Yes! Sometimes it would be nice for german fire departments I think. But it is what it is.
Super video. Hoffe ich komme auch bald mach nach New York um meinen Traum wirklich werden zu lassen. Der Verkehr hier in Deutschland ist nicht so wie dort ^^ New York´s Straßen sind überfüllt und alle wollen halt irgendwo hin ^^
The FDNY needs to give them headsets, In Maryland, All FD Stations have headsets so they can contact each other while responding. RIP to the FDNY Firefighters Ears, They problay lost their hearing from that
Dieses "Feuerwehrkonzert" könnte man auch nach Berlin bringen. So ne Ladung Megapresslufthorn und kreischende Sirene sorgt hier eventuell für Mehr Aufmerksamkeit.
So müsste die FF/FFW auf den Autobahnen läuten, solange bis es auch der Letzte bei keiner gemachten Rettungsgasse begreift. Immer drauf auf das Bullhorn, und wenn es andere nervt!!! Ich feiere den Sound!!!
They have all of that except the train horn, (not sure about the chrome rims), I've seen them respond with rumbler, a bit more effective, sometimes not so effective. It sorta suppresses the siren so I would use it at night
Dude I got into FDNY Rescue 1's firehouse and the guy who gave me a tour of the house offered me to play around with the sirens and horn, it was insanely loud. Louder than this video.
![**RIDE with the FDNY!** Heavy AIRHORN Response to FIRE on 7th Floor of Garage [ MAN Box 1065 ]](/img/n.gif)
Listen at max volume for true NY experience
Damn, that's loud.
Yesss that's crazy super loud 🔊🔊
I love that big flag
R.I.P. airpod users
surround sound
There's nothing quite like hearing a fire engine roar thru the streets of NYC. It's actually pretty amazing.
As a New Yorker who listens to this daily, I’ve gotten used to it.
you lost your hearing not get used to it
No way you can get used to it.. It would drive me crazy
@@dillon17 well they will be until you get out of their way..
That's just the problem, people get used to it and than next they dont move out the fucking way
@@michaelbeiler7164 I was about to say this but you long since beat me to it.

PEDs: doesn't move
Fdny: *lays brick on horn*
best part is unless their window is rolled down, the siren and bullhorn are really quiet inside the truck
We should give them 50caliber or something.
@@cia5602 I've been in a ride along with Ladder 10, it is actually a bit quieter.
Love the German comment at the end: 'and just when you thought traffic in Hamburg is tough' .
One of the things I love about the USA are the awesome police cars, fire trucks etc with all their lights and speakers
yeah you really get a chance to admire them as no one moves out the way ;)

Oh, how sad.. I wanted to have a heart attack there, now I know it's a bad idea
It's not like you can plan a heart attack bud. Lol
Beautiful sound.
Max volume with headphones is the true New York experience
a German accent...music to my ears having spent 2 years stationed there.
They talk about how they thought the traffic in Hamburg is difficult, typical germans
Lol this is actually one of the best FDNY video
Air Horn I love this Sound!!
Bro, if those trucks are that loud, I can only imagine how terrifying it was to hear the whole city scream when 9/11 happened. It makes me wonder.
Back then they had Pa300 sirens not the EQB2 ones like they have now BUT I’m sure it was loud cause you had everyone Responding
Half the fdny was going to the wtc plus departments from outside nyc and plus the nypd and a shit ton of other agencies. There were probably thousands of vehicles responding at once

I love this 😂bro has no chill and that’s how it should be 🤣
I love this horn.
Same
I've always wanted to go to New York mainly for this
The siren be like: “Welcome to the gulag” *destroys ur ears*
Holy shit, that's really LOUD ^^
The Germans are everywhere😂
Yes we are xd
Man, You can hear it a mile away!😯
Holland here: note to self... NEVER get hurt in New York... ever!...
It has to be insane as a firefighter to drive in this traffic.
I've been in a ride along with FDNY Ladder 10, one worker was off so i had a free seat in the truck, I saw the chauffeur yelling at pedestrians and stupid drivers, even though the crew knows that the pedestrians and drivers don't give a fuck
I love it i miss nyc when it was like this

Not really. Air Horn in Germany is pretty loud too. But nothing is as loud as US fire engines
Musik in meinen Ohren!❤
Even with all that noise , the yellow cabs still don’t move !!
That’s the way it sounds like!!! 👍👍👍👍
This is so relaxing, Ladder 4 Air horn is dark, storm!!
Damn ladder 4 is loud
That dude casually rides his bike infront of the fire truck while blasting sirens and flashing lights 😂
That's the dumb $h!+ about NYers is that it ain't always the drivers, it's the cyclists and pedestrians too. Top tier morons! 🙂
Some New Yorkers don't give a fuck.
Im from new York and frequently visits NYC and is planning to move there in the future so all the many trips there this is normal for people like me max volume is what it would actually sound like
great video thank you
I love the flag on the back I wish they would have flags on our fire trucks over here in the UK
Remember when NYC streets had Fire Lanes in the middle now we got bike lanes.
Now just imagine if they had an train horn on those trucks, it’d be even louder!
id my eardrums ever feel comfortable i always come to this video to give them a taste of the real world.
Best job ever
Credit to those in the nyfd for what they do and for dealing with that traffic in giant trucks
Love it 😂👍🏾
That lady with the black dress on is a real New Yorker
Also ich wäre definitiv taub 😂😂 Und mit Hamburg kann man das echt nicht vergleichen 😂
Ich als deutscher, Feier das auch extrem ♥
Als Deutscher solltest du Kommasetzung lernen!
Me: Hey! You wanna hear the most annoying sound in the world?
Me: *plays this at max volume*
Music to my ears.
Listen to that Q scream 👌 love it 🎶
Awesome!
Love it loud
Takin care of business, and keepin it real!
Amazing 😉😉😉😉
spine-chilling adrenaline
The conversation between these car drivers and the firetruck must be like:
FDNY: Drive!
Car: There's a red light.
FDNY: DRIVE!
Car: I can't
FDNY: Oh you will. Wait, where's my air horn? There it is.
Ah, some german guys in New York City. Air horns like this would never be allowed in Germany because ... they're toooo loud. Yes! Sometimes it would be nice for german fire departments I think. But it is what it is.
Doesn't German firefighters have the smallest horns ever? Its a literal police airhorn put on a fire engine
Love It
LOUD A CAN BE IM LISTENING ON HEADPHONES AND T S CRAZY LOUD

My new alarm tone
Respect for yellow taxi that stay quiet over the horn thunderstorm...
Sounds like they haven't had a fire call in weeks
When I am a fireman I'm going to lean on the switch to make people deaf.
I need that horn on my BIG RIG.
Hi Is A Grover Air Horn I Think Or E-Tone
Probably a Grover Stuttertone as Kyle said
Os melhores do mundo
When ladder 4 full send their eq2b siren and horn
Siren for warning, air horn for punishment. Industry standard.
The FDNY needs to give them headsets, In Maryland, All FD Stations have headsets so they can contact each other while responding. RIP to the FDNY Firefighters Ears, They problay lost their hearing from that
Welcome to big cities! Get over yourselves if you have issues with fire trucks responding.
Welcome to New York City, where your ears will be destroyed by fire trucks.
Harnessed the air horn, and sent it in to battle
Traffic is # 1 problem
Erlc players: must be the wind
I like the part with the Q.
,, and I thought the traffic in Hamburg is horrible ‘‘
Way worse here in New York City haha. Our fire trucks go down the road at 5 MPH when theres traffic, they can't do shit.
Great Catch. Bicycle rider in the red shirt needs to get out the way! :)
New york baby!
As a firefighter I’ve gotten used to doing it
Ja, ja, nicht nur in Hamburch ist der Verkehr schwierich....;)
Dieses "Feuerwehrkonzert" könnte man auch nach Berlin bringen. So ne Ladung Megapresslufthorn und kreischende Sirene sorgt hier eventuell für Mehr Aufmerksamkeit.
I can hear that 864 miles away
Joa da sagt man immer der Verkehr in Hamburg ist schwierig! Ich vergleiche auch gerne Birnen mit Äpfel.
0:46 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
That means “MOVE”
So müsste die FF/FFW auf den Autobahnen läuten, solange bis es auch der Letzte bei keiner gemachten Rettungsgasse begreift.
Immer drauf auf das Bullhorn, und wenn es andere nervt!!!
Ich feiere den Sound!!!
It doesn’t matter how loud your sirens are and how many lights you have. If people don’t act like they should..
This helps my ptsd I don't know why though
Die Einsatzkräfte haben es nicht immer leicht, sie müssen schnell am Einsatzort ankommen und müssen sich zusätzlich mit dem Verkehr abkämpfen.
I wanna meet #4 one day
That’s car for - “GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE WAAAAAYYYYY!!!”
I can’t belive how no one moves, they all just cycle past or sit there
They Need A Rumbler, Martinshorn, Chorme Rims, K5LA Train Horn, & Real Q!!!!!!!!!
that is a real Q
@@spaghetti9845 nope
@@spaghetti9845 It's not, but they do have them R1 had one on there's with the dual eq and q. I'm not sure if their new one still does.
They have all of that except the train horn, (not sure about the chrome rims), I've seen them respond with rumbler, a bit more effective, sometimes not so effective. It sorta suppresses the siren so I would use it at night
@@omfgCantGetaUsername All versions of the Rescue have the real Q, so does the squads.
insane that the avereage new york driver just doesn't give a shit about sirens and won't even move
the equivalent of you being right next to a fire truck using a martin horn
Dude I got into FDNY Rescue 1's firehouse and the guy who gave me a tour of the house offered me to play around with the sirens and horn, it was insanely loud. Louder than this video.
I think they should use more horn.
wowwwww!!!!👍👍👍👍👍
Taxi drivers just be there like Bro it ain't affecting me why should i move fast 💀💀
ah ja der Verkehr in Hamburg jaja
they should just make a second deck exclusively for fdny
Only in New York baby
it's a loud tradition
Whatever the call was I hope everyone was ok

That’s insane. What emergency response?
I use this to sleep.
