We hate to criticize you....but we will. Nicely said.

The car had nothing to do with the fire continuing

I thought they wasted too much time on the car and should have focused more on the garage roof with what they had to prevent it from getting into the attic and home.

@@virgilhilts3924 You have no clue what you are talking about

And ... they drove apparatus over the neighbor's property likely breaking the underground utilities. Urban emergency apparatus need to stay on road\street\highway. They can get stuck-placing them out of service {while awaiting king kong tow truck}, or fall over due to soft substructure {underground springs, voles' tunnels etc}. Your apparatus are expensive take care of them, use them wisely.

@@henrythompson8582 Not sure where you saw fire apparatus parked in the yard?

Water supply would be my best guess. If you listen to the radio chatter there is lots of back and forth about finding the next available hydrant, which when you read the description it says the closest one they had already hooked was almost 2000 ft away. That single hydrant, with that much distance is only going to supply so much (you can see the supply struggles on that 2.5 line around the 14 min mark) . I don't know the specs of that ladder truck, but if its anything like the one we have, it might have a 500 gal water tank on board. Our ladder has a 2000 gpm pump, and if memory serves puts out around 1400 gpm through the main gun (I could be off on that but I think that's about right). That means you maybe have 20 seconds before that tank is bone dry and your ladder truck turns into a paper weight until you can get a good steady supply line to it.

@@jminc That's why where I live the county and city departments regularly train on relay pumping. It's not needed very often, but it's good to be able to do. They recently had a large scale training on a new section of road, where they had nine (I think) engines from different departments relay pump over one mile.

Everyone goes home, but the homeowner

Exactly

Yeah, I though they had it knocked down,then the car lit again,

They were clearly struggling with water problems, not much they can do with empty hoses

Absolutely right, and did you notice how they could have saved the owners car but they simply ignored it and let it catch fire, and it was a fire that worsened the situation. Absolute amateurs if you ask me. They could easily have prevented the fire spreading to the car.

@@STHFGDBY yeah ,you’re so right , my same thoughts, was that their first fire? Come on 🙄 ,they just let it spread to the rest of the house, when they could have use the water they had at first, he was spraying water where their was no fire over the house😲 we would have knock that fire down quickly .

A sensible analysis?!?! This cant be KZfaq. I would of also liked to see the drone footage of the house.

That driveway would have been just as easy with a “massive” tower ladder. The problem is not the size of the apparatus, it’s letting members operate apparatus that are too big for their driving abilities.

It would've been quicker if the driver of the ladder truck drove straight into the driveway instead of backing in.

Wolfgang548, It doesn't matter either way, they didn't use the ladder for elevated ventilation or fire suppression for a long time. As a retired Truck Co. Engineer, this was my job to place the piece, unless instructed by a higher ranking officer on scene. Our ladder was all manual, (screw Jack's,) but in less than 3-5 minutes I could place my truck, have it set up, and my vent crew moving up the ladder to vent a roof. This is what good training accomplishes. We use to train for hours on basic fire hydrant hookups, truck placement, driving training. (Our town was comprised of old mills narrow streets, and other side of town was big houses like this video.

What did the video say, 2000 feet lay. Even a supply line will suffer friction loss over that length. Hate to have to retrieve and bed 2000 feet if 6" hose😳

And You wouldn't believe how high the Taxes are there!

who approves these developments without considering fire hydrants??

I really wish people like you could be permanently banned from watching and commenting on fire videos!

Yes, that fire engine tank feels like it only last seconds. The hydrant must have been quite a distance away?

@@teamidris I might be wrong but I think it was over 1,000 ft away. That's a long way and more hose than they have so I'm sure they had to relay a lot.

@@bettysmith4527 The reason I ask is because the car burning seems to add more fuel to the fire to the house itself.

Enter the house and head toward the garage, try to keep the fire to the garage. Ask your self what's more important, what's in the garage, or the contents in your home?

@@stevehamman4465 The fire spread from the garage...contain it.

Punch a hole with a Fireman’s 🪓 axe, I think they had one, in the middle of the garage door aluminum or mild steel panel and let loose a hose all around instead out come the Stijl saws looking to extract a car while providing air draft to feed the fire… I certainly hope this video served as a Training Tool as to what NOT to do and what to do…. Sad the owner was having cardiac arrest watching as manuals were pulled out to be referenced, Step 1 find hydrant Step 2 NO hydrant Step 3 Cut Garage Door open Step 4 disregard car burning in lane way …. Did anyone order a Pizza?? Who ordered the Pizza?

Today computer with visual and map information exists. So the computer program can navigate you to the next (good) fire hydrant if the local firefighters do not known the position. Specially if the place more rural than it is possible - we all only human and make mistakes. I do not understand why the firefighters near the fire not wear breathing devices. If they can not put on all on the way to this fire why not do on way from fire apparatus to the fire? Fire chiefs have a build-in GOD-mode, this typical around the world - they are a bad example ... but normal firefighters? I think too that after the first water supply line finished they need a second one from an other fire hydrant or tanker. It is easy to forget how many water do you need at place, specially every foot water hose hold back water what you need at fire place. It is again one other human mistake. Training and knowledge need time and the own will of every fire fighter from the local place. Do you can cut a slice the pizza from the U.S.A. military knowledge - and put it into the firefighting part. I give everybody of them credits - then we not know near nothing about the exact situation. No map picture, not how many tools (human resources, fire apparatus, structures) they have, can use or order from near, nor the typical one-man-show (in typical military structure countries the fire apparatus follow a chain line (mostly 4 till 6 vehicle together)) we see here, or the other sides of the house or place. The real life is not a one-horn horse farm place.

I was about to say the same.. No ventilation whatsoever until mentioned after the 11 minute mark by the chief. They should have opened up that roof in a couple of spots right off the bat... Unbelievable.

You have to get in front of the fire always. If not you just push it through the entire attic every time.

@@douglastuten5340 gotta wonder if they were pulling ceilings down looking for attic extension, or just hitting room and contents fire where they found it

Yeap you’re so very right RJ, 👍🏽we see the same things, I wish they had done better than that..😲

Yeah. Why didn't someone move the car before it seriously caught on fire?

@@19irving simply why did they not put a smaller line on it to prevent it's fire from entering the garage? Just one or two minutes of effort would have put out that source of fire. The lack of water supply or not having a tanker available is awful.

Cancel the prior drone comment. I just watched your other content. What are you using? Great stuff btw! Just a thought… I have a Mavic-2 pro / Mavic-2 zoom (better for emergency scene vids) / Air-2s / Mini-2 / and now.. my new favorite ..Mavic-3 The Mavic-3 is a bit pricey, but has incredible flight time (I’m getting approx 45 minutes per battery) It also does incredibly well in high wind. It has awesome range (telemetry/control/video streaming) .. I’ve gone 4-5 miles in a high-RF interference area) And… best of all ->>. The dual camera system !!! The telephoto/zoom gives me near perfect imaging at 1-3x and at 7-9x, but can go up to 28x !! GREAT for keeping out of the way and accessing a scene without interfering with ops. Btw.. I have a second “modified” Air-2s. I can now use it at unlimited altitude (not used often.. ) AND…. NO NFZ GEOFENCING!! There are multiple areas that I fly near that are MISTAKENLY entered in the DJI “no fly zone” database. Getting LAANC and DJI approval is a hellacious process when attempting to get a drone in the air, especially for fire/ emergency scene operations. Combined with the RC-Pro or Smart Controller, it is a great solution for fire scene / search & rescue operations / etc.. Thanks again. Great footage / great channel!

Thanks ya not every fire I launch my drone, mavic air 2 & mavic entrepreneur with a three mail camera

what im sayin 1 hose line and nobody doin shit really

With all due respect, Ortego, this dept. looks like the 3 stooges. Absolute clown show. From the chief and ladder all over the neighbors lawn, no hydrant maps, nobody cares about the car that could explode at any second. Using a single hose. Chief should have to answer for this. Imagine the insurance company seeing this. I've never done a day in the academy but even I know this much.

This was painful to watch. Just piss poor training all around.

Nice nimble ladder, but a waste, it wasn't utilized for ventilation or elevated water platform in a timely manner.

@@dubzytse710 yes, that was crazy, 1 hose 20 guys doing shit .

No it couldn’t of.

the US building materials seem to be unsavable...after watching some of these reports, it seems to me, they are focussed on life rescue, neighbour protection and a controlled burning. Our german fire departments also look to save the building, especially theold ones, built with stone walls, who often are reconstructed. Cars would be the first to pull away... perhaps there are different assurance conditions...🤔

Looked like it was already on fire at the start of this video.

It has to be slow because if they use too much water they might run out.

Some one explains why the ladder truck was there .after 16 minutes it swung into position. An still no water . An then FINALLY .DAMN

He probably is not paid in the first place.

No neighbors have a f150 to yank drag light car 30 feet back? It’s not like the FD rigs used the driveway so there was ample time....

@@petedavidson6931 Does that look like a F150 type of neighborhood? lol

Where should we store our gasoline? Serious question.

@@suemcnellis6107 In your car's gas tank and no where else.

Sue Mcnellis Shed away from house.

Gasoline in a proper container cannot CAUSE a fire. It can certainly add to the problems once one is going. Radiant heat won’t make it explode. It can compromise the integrity of the container. There must be fumes and an ignition source. I have been keeping gasoline in my garage in every house I have had in the last 50 years. All of them were attached garages. I never had a shed to put it in.

I know people without sheds who just store it outdoors in proper containers under bushes to avoid the sun.

It's a plausible idea. But when the scene is hot, hooking a vehicle is difficult. Maybe if a Squad truck had a launched dart/grapple on a cable with winch. It's a thing cops have tried testing for police pursuits.

Something such as a chiefs vehicle…..

Actually, if you look, the fire in the car never affected the garage much, if at all. Garage was already well involved,

I've always been opposed to sprinklers in residential. Too many chances for false alarms and then everything gets ruined. But sprinklers in garages seem like a good option. Gasoline, chemicals, aerosols, paint, grease, cars, etc.

I live in STP. Minnesota, very glad I got a real fire dept.!!!

There is not one hydrant in our community of 2500 people

most new construction homes are not sprinkled, this wasn't large or expensive, well this up north soooooo, lol..........ok

Exactly

Unfortunately, not always required everywhere. I would surely want to have sprinklers, and fire blocks in attic sections, so it can't easily extend all across the whole attic/cockloft. But all that costs extra, and some developers may not even offer it if not required, nor do they always tell buyers it is a good option to consider. A lot of people never think of any of this stuff.

What? Residential construction does NOT require sprinklers. NOT one home, new construction in NJ is sprinkled. Have you been an American for long? Sprinklers. That's funny

@@mtvjackass74 In CA , all of our new construction is required to have sprinklers. If you notice there is a lot of damage to the side of the house. Heard a fireman say solar panels. Could be that or many fires being caused by Smart Meters, especially in. Canada

seriously weird and not necessary

Where all the Orthodox are taking over. Probably the house was being used as a small hotel, knowing them.

@@fp5495 only because I use to do lawncare work back In the day in that area

The two small explosions were most likely from aerosol cans overheating and blowing out. Happens all the time with a fire in the garage.

Actually, the explosions were the front shock absorbers popping from the heat. Quite common in car fires.

@@bobvidoni5898 Do you think it was the bumper shocks or maybe an air bag? That thing flew pretty far, it's lucky nobody was in the way.

@@stephenhanneken3041 I am very well aware of explosions of aerosol cans in a fire. I just watched dozens of aerosol can explosions videos, both individual explosions and mass explosions of a tractor trailer carrying a whole load of cans. NONE of them put out the smoke that was seen in the second explosion. Unfortunately because of where the camera was focused at that second, the actual explosion could not be seen. They result in pure flames. Something exploded in the garage, but I don’t think it was a garden variety aerosol can. A case of aerosol cans close to the garage door could conceivably cause the damage to the garage door visible. But what would have set it off? It doesn’t require fire to make an aerosol can explode, but it does require excessive heat over 120 degrees F. That would make having aerosol cans outside of air conditioned air in places like Phoenix, Arizona dangerous. As far as the shock absorbers is concerned, you imply exploding shock absorbers are a KNOWN danger of car fires. I have seen videos of car fires where the shock absorbers have exploded and they seem to have been much louder, so it is, indeed, a known danger. If that object had gone a different direction, it could have caused serious injuries to one or both firefighters. Given that, why would firefighters be that close to a known danger? Why wasn’t there a greater effort to extinguish the fire in the car to prevent a known danger? Firefighters are known to take extreme precautions in the presence of known dangers. Like ammunition “cooking off” in a fire. It is extremely rare for an exploding bullet to have the velocity required to cause serious injury, but injury from exploding ammo has been documented. If ammo starts going off in a fire, firefighters withdraw to a safer distance and stay there until the sound of exploding ammo has ended as far as can be determined. Nowadays, civilians even have access to smoke grenades and flash bangs.

Nope that suprised me too. The Chief ran over it too. That's a big no no at my FD. This was just a trainwreck from the beginning. Need a lot more training.

That’s never been permitted in my department. They would have real problems if their only supply line burst.

I thought the supply line was flat/ not charged.

@@peterwilliams7145 i believe it was flat as well

I also thought driving over it was wrong, even if it was flat.

These departments were once extremely aggressive and well lead. Now, this new generation has nonclue and its the former firefighters fault. Wth happened to firefighting???? Is it all about cool looking trucks and chiefs buggies????

No worries, there will be some "pro" firefighter chiming in here to make excuses for them.

Here in the states attorneys are lfiling class action suits for using the fire fighting foam. Everything causes a problem for someone but that is no reason the rest of us have to suffer. We have a hugh problem with fentanyl O.D. deaths now. This is as a result of pretty much banning the use of normal opioid medications because the idiots were getting high on that. I told my doctor it is the natural order of evolution. If you are stupid enough to do it and die we didn't need you in the gene pool anyway.

American fire engines carry WAY more water than European engines do. You clearly don't know what you're talking about.

@@ffjsb That certainly depends on the state, city, village. Based on the videos, there is no water in your fire trucks, all the water is taken from the fire hydrant system. There are, of course, tanker trucks to get water to places where there is no fire hydrant system. We typically have 5000L or 2500L and 250L of extinguishing foam in the fire truck.

@@RaimoLehtinen You CLEARLY don't know what you're talking about. American fire engines usually have 500 gallons at a MINIMUM, and that's generally in a city. More typically it's 750-1,000 gallons. And the first engine on the scene here is an engine-tanker, so it has at LEAST 2,000-2,500 gallons (7570-9464 liters) on board.

@@ffjsb In every American firefighting video on youtube...that I have seen...a fire truck arrives and the hoses are connected to the fire hydrant system. So I'm talking about what I've seen on youtube videos. Whether you have big tanks or not, it doesn't seem to help, fires don't go out quickly, usually everything burns and for a very long time. Methods, working methods, equipment, fire trucks with "giant" tanks ... in many cities they are very old-fashioned.

No. Fire departments need to make a list of the number of hydrants that are needed and report it to the homeowners. I bet the homeowners insurance premiums are sky high. Usually the installation of a good water system will make the premiums lower than the tax amount needed to provide adequate fire protection for a community.

They said the home had solar panels on the roof. Likely a cobbled together amateur "electrician" tied into the breaker which cobbled to the meter.

This is NOT a “great video”! Someone just lost their home and belongings!!!

Depending on the department and their SOPs. My department can get tanker operations going pretty fast.

“1500-2000 feet to the hydrant” That doesn’t sound quite like a tender operation.
