Thursday afternoon, Allentown box 2958 was transmitted for a house fire located at 1021 North Marshall Street at Tremont Street sending Engines 10, 9, 4, 6 (F.A.S.T.), Truck 2 (Reserve 1) and Battalion Chief 43.
Engine 10 arrived and signaled a working fire. The second alarm was struck out sending Engine 11 and 14 along with Air 1.
The 3rd alarm was struck bringing in Engine 13.
Multiple lines were stretched and operating. The truck went to the roof and cut a ventilation hole in the roof. The fire extended in the walls and into the roof area's of the garage and the main home. The house sustained major fire damage on the first floor as well.
Special-called mutual aid companies were Catasauqua Ladder 231, and Greenawalds Engine 1111.
Firefighters battled the fire for nearly 1 hour and 30 minutes before bringing it under control.

What was the “real” or elapsed time between the beginning and end of this video? Just wondering how long the fire was

@fireguy284 5 жыл бұрын

After so long structures become just a total loss. Firefighters put in some hard work you hate to see it end in a total loss.

Would you say that most houses are total losses after a fire?

That structure fire acts like a ballon frame but the windows don’t demonstrate that. I wonder if the windows were retrofitted later.

Is there a part 1 to this? Video starts and house already suffered fire on the ground floor that looks knocked down. Looks like it extended into the attic. Anyone know why they didn't pull ceilings and out it out?

What was the cause of the fire?

Once fire travels through the walls, things can get pretty nasty... This house may even get ripped down, depending upon the severity of the damage...

Each time I thought it couldn't get worse, they upped their game. I thought AFD was better than this. Get inside, pull ceilings and walls and put it out. And try venting the roof somewhere near the fire next time.

Also from the fire. Different materials produce different colors of smoke, depending on kind of material and whether is really burning or sort of smoldering.

Your a clown show, your an armchair quarterback who loves trying to guess why to do from your home when you haven’t a clue. So sit back, and eat h real men work and out out a fire professionally. Or go out join grab some gear and come back and try again numnuts

Fool on the ladder without SCBA hooked up and taking in all of that smoke. Future insurance risk.

He was "yelled" at and told to mask up.

@charlesmallo 5 жыл бұрын

It seems to me that a lot of American fire fighters are ignorant/suicidal/badly trained. For starters their commander should instruct them to mask up before sending them up that ladder. After all, he is (at least in Holland) responsible for the safety of his crew. On the other hand, a well trained fire fighter could figure out by himself that going into that smoke while not using his BA is dangerous.

The bald guy with the Allentown T-shirt is a very bad example of fireground operations and PPE. He should be wearing turnouts and a helmet. Shorts and a T-shirt is not a dress code for a structure fire unluss you are working the REHAB.
