I mean... if the firefighters were screaming and panicking then everyone would be fucked.

@@bailey125 You mean as they tend to do in the videos showing the US fire fighters?

Sometimes firefighters have to shout to communicate better, so I think that's normal.

American firefighting seems to be chaotic.

@Zdravko: I agree, but did you expect something else from the country: - where the firehose pump system was invented centuries ago - where the 'hook container' concept for FB use was invented in the 70's - which houses one of the main manufacturers of portable, high volume systems, which are exported world wide (incl. US) - which houses one of the main manufacturers of hydraulic cutting equipment ?

Hey. i’m going to croatia

You should check "helden van hier : door het vuur" it's a serie about Belgium fire department in Antwerp. I even like it more than this one

U idiot lol I want to see them with a real challenge, chemical factory fire, let's see how good they are at fighting that.

@@11xr1east Don't worry about that, but if you're looking for firemen running around, you'll have to spend a lot of search. A local FF once told me: Firemen only run in (1) movies and (2) the US :-)

Ook bij schuurbrandjes moet je opletten

I agree. In Sweden, Netherlands, Denmark and more we are FAST. Takes like 20 seconds from arrival until water is on the fire. In the US, most of the videos I've seen, it takes like 2 minutes (or more sometimes!).

Here is a nice video showing it from the outside, how fast and efficient it is. The truck arrives at around 2:30-3:00 in the video. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gJN8msip37uUhqs.html

Because we use a high pressure hoserail. The American firefighters can learn about it with their fancy truck which are not effective

Again if you haven’t seen Americans operate stop loosely saying false facts. And also the reason we take so long is most of some of the departments are volunteer which means A. They have to come from their job B. They have to come from home C. Or any other inconvenient space. When we do a rive there are certain guidelines we have to follow such as we aren’t allowed( in most cases) to have our helmets on while responding) another problem that you guys are stating is that we simply stand around with a thumb up our cracks. We don’t most of the time there is a team doin a “360” where the check the fire out of let’s say house fire or a car fire. It takes a second then a second team goes into said or or checks into the car for any victims. If there isn’t then and only then are they aloud to douse it with water because steam can give the victim even worse flames. So please before you start stating off stuff that you”seen in a video” learn about what we do and how we do it. And please understand that all firefighters such as myself are here to protect and serve not get belittled in a comment on a KZfaq video because someone “saw it in a video”

@@sure_ur_right8164 A lot of European FDs are also volunteer or retained (on-call); it's as high as 90% in Germany, for example, and most of England outside London relies on retained firefighters. Not disagreeing with your main statement when I say that, though! Every country has its own way of doing things which has evolved over the decades, and a lot of KZfaq commentators seem to assume that there is only "one true way" of doing things, which simply isn't true; I wish they'd be more open-minded.

Actually doesn’t take 5-10 minutes it takes about 2-3 minutes. Go fight fire in America first before talking shit

Every Fire Appliance will have a full set of Hydraulic Spreaders, Cutters, & Rams

@@CDB8939 Depends on where you are, what service you work for and what training you have hydraulic tools available. A halligan is always there and easy(er) to grab with a hose line in the initial attack. But good point if you've got the gear: use it! :)

@@BenignViewer UK Fire Service, All my Services Pumps are equipped with a full set of Holmatro

@@CDB8939 That's awesome. Glad the UK invests so much. In Aus (specifically my service in Victoria) you won't have all that gear on every pump, although most will have at least a combi-tool. 👍👍

They use a CAFS called 'OneSeven' which is environment friendly: www.bmt-fireandrescue.com/en/products/dls-one-seven/one-seven-compressed-air-foam/

Michiel Klaver yeah, very common system here as well but it is not being used for environmental reasons.. The manufacturer highlights it as eco friendly but many researchers are of a different opinion here now. Just interested in knowing if this discussion is taking place outside of sweden as well

@@olofnilsson5755 if it does the job quickly, it's far better for the environment than letting things burn, especially with all the modern synthetic materials involved in fires today...

If you don't use foam, it takes a lot longer to extinguish the fire as it is polluting the environment with much more harmful toxins than the foam would. In the long run, foam is safer for the firefighters and is better for the environment.

Not many US Fire Dept understand the efficiency of hose reels and retardant. It beats the heck out of me why they just don't learn that lesson. By the time they lay in a hydrant and full bore line that small job got bigger and don't even get me started on their ridiculously unsafe BA procedures, which seem to be random or non-existent!

Much love back from the Netherlands.

zie je niet vaak het zou je maar gebeuren

Grote kans dat de delen kunststof in het slot gesmolten zijn waardoor de deur en de rest van de wand een geheel zijn geworden. Je ziet het ook vaak bij autobranden en de vergrendeling van de motorkap.

BigCat376 around 2000 liters,

They probably moved the vehicle to the side of the road (on an overpass) and left the scene. One of the more wise things to do when there is a fire. They're probably a few 100 meters away.

Because it often goes alot faster to use especially in fires like this

It's the first attack line: especially on motorways, getting a line for water supply can be a big problem. For almost every fire, it's standard practice anyway to start fighting the fire with a first attack line. Your fellow firefighters will take care of finding watersupply for the big hose(s) while the first attack is taken care of by other members of the crew.

with the attack hose reel / booster reel you can start a fire attack within 30 seconds upon arrival; Apart from it being very effective, one team can set up a supply line and normal attack line at the same time

The black rubber hose is also high pressure, so despite its smaller diameter it can put the same amount of water on the fire as a standard hose. It is also better in atomizing the water because of the higher pressure, which helps to cool down the gasses and smoke in a first attack. Its also connected with a foam agent tank, so foam can be used instantly without having to set up the equipment first, in case of vehicle fires with flamable fuels this is standard procedure, to avoid spreading around the fire (I have seen that happening on US vehicle fire videos that often, even spraying burning gas over fellow FFs on the other side of the vehicle)

we have both :)

Ja klopt op het moment van blussen heeft de politie de weg dicht gezet.

dat zie je heel duidelijk in de film toch ? wat mis je dan ?

SpyingDutchman Kom op man, het zal iets extra edit werk zijn. Je kan ook overdrijven

I can't find anything on helmet-hierarchy in the Netherlands. I do know that clothing is used to emphasize someones task/rank. 'Officer in charge' for example, is the person that is the most qualified in big emergencies (large multiple vehicle crashes with multiple casualties). He/she will deploy a green emergency beacon on the vehicle he/she is driving. The green beacon could also be used to notify other ambulances which ambulance crew was the first at scene (and thus is likely to have the most knowledge of the situation) Those people usually pull a green 'hi-vis' (not really hi-vis, but the idea is the same) over their normal clothing. There's probably more, but I don't know about that.

I don't know everything, as I am not a fireman. But the helmetcolor is not showing anything. Historically the helmets of the firebrigade were white, with black uniforms, bearing white high viz stripes. Nowadays the color of the uniforms and helmets are changing. In the Netherlands the ranking is quite simple in the fire brigade. Every vehicle has a commander (bevelvoerder in Dutch). The shoulder section of his uniform is of a different color. Unfortunately I don't have the different color available from the top of my head. When two or more vehicles are dispatched, a secondary vehicle will automaticaly be dispatched with an officer in charge (officier van dienst). He has a different shoulder color than the vehicle commanders. If more than one officer in charge is necessary on scene, a higher commander will be called in. One vehicle will be called to be the commanding vehicle for every branch of the emergency services. This vehicle will show the green flashing light. In the Netherlands btw the emergency branches flock together in emergency regions. Very big incidents will be anwered also by officers of the regions. They don't fly a green light, they drive green vehicles. In my region the command vehicle provided by the region is a green truck. But that one is only used in very big incidents.

NoahsNoah Heel zeilig

Waarvoor

Yes we do

@@fire247 Very nice, we use it in austria too, its a perfect system. Are you using only normal pressured lines or high pressure (40 bar) too?

Dat weten we op dit moment niet

Waarschijnlijk kortsluiting, of overbelasting van het electrisch circuit. Veel mensen sluiten extra koelkasten, of vriezers aan. Brandstof die door een lekkage op het hete uitlaat spruitstuk terecht komt, is ook niet goed voor de uiteindelijke staat van een voertuig. Wat ook de oorzaak is, het is met een aan zekerheid grenzende waarschijnlijkheid, dat hij niet door de volgende APK komt

Is dat egt jou camper 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

ik denk een te warm geworden motor. omdat dat deel er het ergst aan toe is, zou het in het leef gedeeld gebeurd zijn dan zou de achterkant voor een deel zijn weggebrand en weggesmeuld

Een autobrand kan verscillende oorzaken hebben, maar het meest voorkomend is kortsluiting

Eeeeuuuuh??? Een brandblussert???
