DISCLAIMER- If you suffer from motion sickness, this video might not be for you. The camera is attached to my helmet, which is attached to my head. Obviously, I am constantly looking around to maintain situational awareness and keep track of the progress of the fire and fire attack.
Bonus Footage- This is the entire helmet cam footage of the house fire at 32 N Buena Vista Street that was previously released. I have had several people request more helmet cam footage, so here you go.
The original video with dash cam footage is here • Newark Ohio Fire Depar... which has a full description of the events.
I have additional command view fire videos on this channel as well as my other KZfaq channel at / traumawave

I love the command view. I wondered about the ladder, it was half in the window, making it not useful for bailouts. The fire was being fought from the inside which would result in the fire being pushed out of the window and towards the ladder. As soon as it was put up I wondered what it was for and started saying it's last rights. Was it balloon type construction to have fire from the basement through all floors? Overall great job on a tricky fire. Thank you for sharing your high quality videos. My hat is off to everyone, from dispatch to the nozzle operator and everyone in between. A well trained, organized, professional department that is an inspiration to all Fire Fighters.

@Barefoot0Walker 3 жыл бұрын

nice perspective. what are your ladders made of, aluminum or magnesium? it seems that the second would be unsuitable because the metal could burn, but i know aluminum can catch fire too. in any event, i wondered why the ladder was left in the flames, but guessed that in all the confusion, it was the least of the concerns. what was the outcome of the alarm at the warehouse?

I have a question about the ladder placement in the second-floor window. Shouldn't it have been placed to the side of the window to avoid the fire damage that it surly incurred? I was taught to do that, especially in case of a flashover explosion. What are your thoughts?

@FromGamingwithLove0456 3 жыл бұрын

Depends on what the ladder is being used for- you'd have been taught to put it to the side if you were going to smash it to ventilate (if that's what was called for)... or under the sill angled properly if you were planning on using it to enter, and under the sill but at a shallow angle to offer a bail out option for interior crews... Maybe you'd extend it over the window if you were planning on rigging a system to lower someone at some point- There was some discussion about the topic to your question in the other video that is of the same fire... I think it got placed there with the intention to move it- but then things got distracting and it wasn't noticed until it was too late. A lot of good commentary from the chief over in that video if you go check it out.

@brucestambaugh 3 жыл бұрын

Hi, I really enjoy your videos. I do have one question. What conditions would lead to a decision to go defensive on a fire instead of an interior attack? Would it be the condition of the structure primarily or are there some others that are just as important. Thank you and all the men and women for their service to their respective communities.

@pirox2720 3 жыл бұрын

There are a number of contributing factors on that call, structure, how big of fire, if for some reason the fire won't stay knocked down and others. Chief Decker uploaded a couple of videos in the past where they had to go defensive on things if you haven't seen them yet.

@commandvisionfire 3 жыл бұрын

There are a number of factors that would dictate a defensive operations. Things like condition of the building, the amount of fire involved, and available resources just to name a few. Each situation is different and the IC must look at the totality of the entire situation utilizing risk analysis to determine if defensive operations are appropriate.
