He was a legend. Rest in piece

@@DLAW221 yeah, forty years of the service, from his first to his last siren. Thank you.

@@dimaleoniv7987I just realized I spelled something wrong I am very sorry. I meant to say rest in peace 😔

I though the same. At 1:35 to 1:45 you can see firefighters inside the burning structure even though the building is obviously lost. A safety distance is kept at no point and a firefighter is almost hit by debris. I found this unit took unnecessary risks.

Couldn’t agree more. No thought to using the reach of the line and every once of fire can be reached on a shotgun house from the windows along the side. This is simply demonstration of normalization of deviance. We train to go through the door, so every time we are presented with an issue, we go through the door. Action without thought. I’m not being overly critical, I’ve done the same myself, many times. We just need to do better and learn what FSRI has taught us.

Definitely!

Hey Mate, so nice to see this. I love being a Fireman, giving back to the community is the best feeling in the world. I'm in Sydney at least once a year, wife is from there, happy to bring some Tee Shirts from my crew for you.

You couldn't have said it better. I plan on being a firefighter when I grow up!

@@wesrobinson7366 Thanks mate I really appreciate it and take care of yourself.

@@valeriehines4642 I hope you do and we need to teach the younger generation to look up to firefighters.

@@valeriehines4642 If you live in a town with a volunteer force you can join early.

Yeah big salute and respect to them! 🫡

What do you expect it’s in LA.

Just bloody stupid, get on and do other stuff when a ladder is of no use.

That firefighter was going on training instinct. However for a unresponsive patient before you put on a blood pressure cuff you wanna check for a pulse first. This guy went straight for the blood pressure cuff.

@@john-martin No it's pretty obvious you don't need a ladder. Just wasted time.

I’m retired from LA County and there isn’t anyone that is going to jump on City’s case it’s going to be me. That being said, the guy that took the nozzle after the flashover was not just correct but a Captain. He did so because flashover can happen back to back and the second is always worse. X pattern to the roof of the fire will cool the gases and make better conditions for entry! The guy that was on the nozzle and came out? Not sure why he came out but look closely he had a glove on!

The entire show was a cluster!!!!!!

@@bondservantministriesinc.672 LAFD and LA County FD Sucks!!!! Absolute horrible departments and operational tactics!!!!!

@@NguageTrains and what department do you work for?

@@bondservantministriesinc.672 We aren’t talking about me, this both la and la county have absolute horrible fireground tactics and command structure, this fire was a very small home. Yet they made it into a chaotic situation that it didn’t need to be. Dumping hose in the front door, running around in a panic, no order from the chief as far as keeping everyone together. You guys couldn’t put a fire out if you all stood around it and urinated on it…..

Yeah man seriously, one guy didn’t have his suspenders on and another didn’t have his SCBA waist belt even clipped like wtf.

@@brysonstringer183 it’s important to account the fact how easy the rush of a working fire can make you forget simple tasks. You can do bunk up drills and mask up drills all day everyday. When the tone drops, there will still be mess ups. They must keep training until it’s near impossible to miss the simple things.

@@martiam451 maybe so in a volunteer dept, but in a career dept that runs fires daily, certain things ( should) become 2nd nature, like getting your gear on right, especially suspenders so his pants didn't come down after they get wet.

Are you serious???? Lol.

They didn't even need to cut the bars.. they could just break the glass and shoot water through the window...

They should dispatch you and your BarcaLounger to all fire calls. They can set up your chair on the front lawn and you can bark out advice.

That firefighter is lucky he didn’t get hurt because that is a hell of a lot of heat coming out of that door at once. I am glad everyone was safe

Technically it’s not a flashover it’s a good example on smoke ignition though and why you get ready before the do and have the line in hand

If they just showed up with water and put the fire out in 15 seconds like they could their jobs would start getting cut.

Yeah for all the things that went wrong 🤣🤦🏼

It's simple thing are done differently here in the USA. Large departments with a lot of resources tend to use older tactics. Departments with less resources will use transitional attacks.

@@j81870 done differently aka done stupid and risking life's. There is so much done without thinking or reason in this video.

@@sebrassino Just because you disagree with the tactics it doesn't always make them stupid. And what level of risk is taken is different around the world. Now would I have chosen those tactics? No I would have used a transitional attack. But that is how it's done by the LA City FD . That's the they have been doing things for years and it works for them.

@@j81870 dude... Doing things for years. It's change that makes you better. Learn and practice newer tactics. Putting lives at risk due to poor training of a commander and then the excuse of this how they do it for years. That's no excuse. You always have to look for improvement. Working more efficiently. Practice basic procedures so they becpme a habit. The level of risk is taken is to high and could be easily avoided by simple changes. There widespread available yet the pride of some people that think knowing it better is standing in its way.

@@sebrassino Poor training are you kidding me. You act like they are some underfund, untrained brand new Volunteer Fire Department. So if you don't like how they do things in LA City than stay out of LA. No need to bash them since it's obvious you don't understand how thing works in LA City FD .

Well, bye!

@@joshacevedo2274 Another future LODD heard from ...

How many garden hoses do you prepare?

Better to plan than to rush and cause an even larger fire

build was a burn to ground. save the trash. have some fun. but, they needed to get more ventilation so it would not flash over like it was. Black you jacked. you see black going back into the building like that you need to vent and cool at the exact same time. it wanted oxygen badly. and do what ever it needed. it had the Heat and it had the fuel already building up. when you vent to are allowing 3 thinks to happen. oxygen to move into the fire. heat and unburden vapor fuel to move out if roof venting.

How do you know it was abandoned.

@@Master-ls2op it was already ventilated by the fire, windows blown out, fire coming out if the roof, probably why the decided not to go on the roof and vent.

read the smoke it was not vented. Black smoke is fuel and can easily flash all it needs to do is get in the correct ratio of oxygen, fuel, to heat and boom. that smoke is dark gray-black. with a nice aggressive rollback. don't know what the full options are but removing bars and getting clear airflow low and high will help keep the heat low and protect the exposures.

Not a single one of you commenting have any actual experience fighting fire and it shows….

I always ask that especially with the new style SCBA's........... 20 years ago I rode/ worked a lot of shifts with Detroit FD and they used old style Scott Packs which once you masked up, you had to be on air, so they waited until they were on the porch to mask up. Now days a mask can be on, and just plug the regulator in before going in. Kills me to see guys getting off custom chassis engines still putting on coats, hanging packs. 🤦‍♂️ My guys get off the engine masked up, tool in hand if not the one stretching a line to the door.

I was thinking the same exact thing I saw that black smoke and immediately after a flash over happened

That one was gone from the start.

It is also to prevent the fire from spreading to other houses you know

Hahaha to funny

US FD don't tend to get water on early. They stand around watching it burn for a bit. It's kind of like a controlled burn.

Good practice why waste it?

Need a means of escape for those going interior to fight the fire. Hard to get thru steal bars of stuff goes bad inside.

@@irishdrums4753 Basic got that right you get a May Day call and they can’t get out the windows?

@@HB-yq8gy exactly. That’s why ladders go up and bars are removed…obviously this home is a loss, but better to do it and not need it versus worst case…

Thats not a rule at all. Went in first on the nozzle with uncharged line at least a HUNDRED times. ...I would not on this one though!

Uhm….I’ve routinely stretched dry

And never go in alone. If you're on the nozzle, you need someone to handle the hose. This video is a good example of how NOT to fight a fire.

What about search for a known life hazard before a line is in place and operating? Are you really going to wait for a line to start your search? I am not talking about this particular case, but when you start using "Never" you limit your ability to do our job of saving lives...

Right off Crenshaw, everyone's favorite

Job security neighborhood huh? Lol

I'm a UK firefighter in the West Midlands. Why does nobody spray water into the building??? Genuine question. Such a weird way of fighting fire. No water sprayed at all.

Grass

@@jonwillis4109 Why waist their water.... The house is already a goner..... And the outer walls contains the fire well so it not spreading 😉😉😉

@@jonwillis4109 hi john from west Midlands I'm also a brummie. Take care out there Jon.

What’s a LDH? You mean IDLH?

The oxygen levels are fine , it's just the fire still growing and the flammable gases have reached there ignition point.

@@andyoxleyonhistravels Still growing? Nah, at this point it already flashed over, spread to other rooms and vented through the windows. Whatever fresh air comes inside is used up pretty quickly.

@@TheWaynelds No it's flashed over in the back part and the flammable gases in the front have then flashed. Trust me I know. Please tell me you ain't a career firefighter ?

@@andyoxleyonhistravels Fire needs o2 or it won't burn.

@Pete Bennington Well done you just stated the obvious.

I think it is called flashover

@@Cheesecake99YearsAgo Correction, it is not to be confused with backdraft, which is what occurred here. Flashover is when a high concentration of smoke pushes itself out of a space under a roof and pushes fresh air in to create a convection current that allows heat from the smoke to radiate down and ignite fuels underneath that the initial fire cannot reach. Backdraft is when there is limited to no air intake into the space, which would normally smother out the flames, but there still exists high amounts of heat and fuels inside. Once air is suddenly let in, which is what happened in the first when the firefighters opened the front door, combustion can restart itself and ignite the smoke. The smoke can only be ignited under a very specific concentration (which is not known), so a backdraft is very unpredictable and may not immediately occur when oxygen is let into the room. So that firefighter next to the doorway is lucky to not have been directly in front of the door at the wrong time.

You should be a fire fighter.

If you knew anything about fire apparatus you would know that is normal overflow.

Yeah they love smashing windows and making holes to stoke up the fire. Then stand around watching it burn for a bit. If you're lucky they might put some water on when it's well involved.

To keep burglars away ? Why not

Iron bars*

That's how they have to live.............welcome to big " inner" city life

I was going to say that it seemed like just too many on scene to be organized and disciplined.

Yeah a lot of "how NOT to fight a fire".
