David Schick thank you for your service brother!

How can u tell it's a probie? Just curious thanks!

@@zildpais orange frontpiece on the helmet

I noticed all the probies too, lots of new guys assigned to midtown and upper west side companies. Actually the probie helmet front pieces are red, yeah it also says probationary on them as well.

NycFireBuff who are the guys in blue shirt and shorts that seems be helping with random things? Are they firefighters too?

@@gunslinger1824 Yes those are the Engine drivers or "chauffeurs" they stay with the truck.

Well if the used high pressure hoses the job would be easier

oliver sommer ummm how so

oliver sommer no not really.

What is a 10/75?

@Justin Case Always got to be a dick....congrats.

Not a ladder, but I've riden the tailboard on engines. Try it in the dead of winter. They don't do it anymore. The last time I did was 1988.

Yes that could be very Stressful if they caught a hairy 1st due Fire . For sure !!

Last summer mid-town was loaded with pumpkin patches, you could not throw a rock and not hit one. In fact the last 5 years so many new guys have moved into Manhatten.

You are absolutely god damm right... Now that we have that out of the way , your country needs to give back the 6 counties in the North of Ireland !!! ☘ Up the Ra

FDNY is technically one of the dumbest.. look at other countries in Europe. They are 100 × more professionel and quicker + they have better equipment

@@sucvizcuvk3526 Yes just like the London Fire Brigades Equipment, no high ladder platform for the Grenfell tower fire. They borrowed one from Surrey. FB.

@@pfsm1238 I would welcome the inbreds getting em back, up the British Army.

E-44 was 1st due

Yes E44 was first due, but yes E58 had a whole company of pumpkin patches.

Them boys from ladder 13 saved my life back on 86th st in the 90s...Arson fire 86 & lex at 3am (of course) FOREVER in my heart, Capt Hynes!! God bless them all. 💜

Its what they connect to the hydrant @4:20

Incorrect. Very seldom does that happen. Ldh is the common practice. Suction hose is generally only used on a static water supply

Hahaha , when the street lights come on .. lol

@@pfsm1238 that's when the monsters come out. (ahh, probies)

Over the last 2 years you could throw a rock and not hit one.

Jim Davenport Manhattan is an island surrounded by water.

@@machia0705 And being that it's pretty dense city it presumably is fun of fire hydrants? I don't get it but I'm sure there is a good reason behind it.

Yep.

Squads, in case they do need to go find a source.

Was stuck on manual focus for a minute. Fixed it and the rest of the video is clear.

HG I.A. For this run it should be 4 Engine companies 2 Ladder companies 1 FAST unit 2 Battalion Chiefs 1 Squad company (if available) 1 Rescue company (if available) 1 RAC unit This would be for a 10-75 transmitted by the first arriving Incident Commander. Edit: A really good resource if you’re interested is FDnewyork.com. They have really accurate information about FDNY. It’s where I got the info about the 10-76 standard page out.

R`vyn Grega is 100% correct

Tim Burm1 absolutely! Though I believe when they transmit 10-75 or 10-76 it automatically upgrades the unit response. But I could be wrong. This was a year ago and I’m sure it has changed.

I counted 3 aerials on this incident.

@@poppiarlin5612 1 of the ladders are the Fast truck. ( Ladder 26 )

Firefighter Assist and Search Team. The function known as RIT or Rapid Intervention Team in most parts of the country

Fast doesnt mean smoothly and smooth always means fast

@@mikegaskin5542 now I see wonder what RIT stand for? Thank your an explain. As I attended Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) in New York. 👍

@@tuhannguyen5573 RIT stands for Rapid Intervention Team

If a firefighter is trapped a team of 3-6 firefighters will go in. Search for him and get him out and medical attention.

You're right. Engine 58, not Ladder 58.

In my area that may mean 1 of 2 things. Either A. He's a great Captain and they want to train as many under him as they can. or B. He's an awful Captain and no one wants to work with him. Either way that's a lot of extra work on both sides. Haha.

He could be seconded training and has brought the recruits to the fire scene for hands on experience

Beam52 They’re not recruits, they’re already on the job as probationary f/f’ers. They might have been at some probie training and took in a job.

hey im from the UK how can you tell if they a probies ?

FDNY Engines roll with 500 Gallons of water in the booster tank at all times.

Also depends where you are in the US. We run 1000 gallons on our first dues currently. Our newest piece will carry 750 because we are transitioning to low hose beds.

Depends on your setup. We run one pumper with 300 gallons while there is a pumper/ tanker that carries 1500 gallons typically an engine will carry between 350-500. It depends on where you are and what the needs are in your area

Yes you are correct Pat

Most departments always have a least 1 line out ready to back up the 1st line in case it gets damaged or they need another line for the size of the fire.

Da lobt man sich doch die Schlaukörbe

Kaczmarczyk Robert in Germany they let the house burn down and then rebuild it into an apartment

It's not a Mechanical Q siren its Electronic that why it sounds different

All the rigs on FDNY now have the electronic sirens that sound like the old federal Q2B mechanical siren.

@@rah2182 They really don't

@@nightfury8440 Your right they don't

Echt jetzt. Deutsche Feuerwehrmänner und -frauen sind definitiv schneller. Vor allem dieses Rumgehampel mit den Schläuchen....das kann man sich gar nicht ansehen.

He's getting all the water out of the hose so they can put it back on the rig

Thomas he’s dumping water from the hose

When a water supply system become taxed, the flow pressure from hydrants on that supply grid will decrease. When the flow pressure from hydrants on the taxes grid dips, soft suction or soft supply hose connected to hydrants will collapse. Hard suction prevents collapse of supply hose due to decreased flow pressure from an over taxed water grid.

Ok thanks. I was always taught never to go under 10 psi residual but I guess if you have an overtaxed system then that could be pretty common. It’s almost like it becomes a drafting from a hydrant situation. That’s life in the big city! Lol!

Mike Ruskowski sometimes if they can’t find anyone from the same firehouse that is available from another shift they’ll bring someone from another station’s off duty personnel. I think the 10 Code would be 10-14 which transmits an emergency signal from additional persons to fill designated positions.

That and firefighters always swap shifts with one another from different companies and fire houses.

That's fdny's aggressive tactics at hand

They definitely k OG what they're are doing

In a large, professional FD in which you know backup is pretty close behind, the initially arriving crews can act knowing that they have chiefs, dedicated RIT, backup crews, etc., showing up within minutes, which allows aggressiveness based on the initial sizeup. Nice job NYFD guys, much love from Houston Fire.

Electronic EBF 4. Ride list is posted at the beginning of the tour.

Sean O'Brien what about BAECO?

True

We were having some technical difficulties. Thanks for the feedback.

FDNY has blue on the back because in New York State that is the only where it is legal to have blue on fire apparatus. Blue and Red and White is typically seen as the best lighting combination (at least where I live) because it offers the best of bright white lighting, the distinctiveness of red, and the visibility of blue. Amber is used on the rear as it is also very eye-catching. Note in America there is little standardization in firefighting. Many places have traditions such as Chicago's FD using green on the right side of their rigs or DCFD using blue on rescues and green on ladders or California's steady burning red light law.

@@nightfury8440 Thank you so much for info Back when I was really young my parents took me to go see Alice s Restaurant ( the movie) and I say a New York state PD car with a 174 federal roof becon it was BLUE me being a small child was shocked at the time only over sea's ( British ) PD where the only one I knew had blue. Around my hometown all PD had the early NYPD type becons. CLEAR dooms with red and clear. Then the state Law changed and boy if any other EMERGENCY piece of equipment thought about having blue let's just say the LAW writing by my state was very very clear no 1 and I mean no 1 could have Blue. My state has a very powerful PD lobby in state capital and what PD says PD gets. Anyway no fire no Ambulance no support ( chief's ) cars could have BLUE we did start using a GREEN small flasher on command vehicles to I D the command ( Chiefs ) location on large lots of equipment at scene to show Commands location. I was in Lost wages ( Las Vegas ) and asked a fire crew what the BLUE light was for on there FD Engine and thay just looked at me and laughed did not answer my ???? To make a long story short I always thought that BLUE was only for PD. Again Thank you for explaining.

Just throwing it out there...There are federal standards, but they aren't required, just guidelines. Some states follow them to the T, others do not. Georgia (per Fed I think) LEO blue and/or white only, Fire red and/or white only, EMS any combo of red, white, and blue...and more. The Fed standard is an orange strip al the way around ambulances, I think 12" tall. Construction, Amber or amber/blue lights. Incident command, green light. There are probably more that I have forgot, it's been several (18+?) years. Oh, purple light or flags, funeral. Green light in canada...Doctor. But they don't get the ROW, nor can they speed.

@@Caderic Thank you for explaining In my state the only one that can have BLUE is PD what's funny is on the water ALL emergency vessels must have Blue. RED flashing on water means DANGER or vessels are working with explosive type Dangerous type weapons. The NAVY had red flashing lights on there Torpedo test vessels on a test range buy my summer home. Love to watch them all day long do there testing.

@@rp1645 You see the blue light thing in several states. Sometimes it's just state police sometimes it's all LEO. I didn't know about the boat thing. That is interesting.

Its a personal choice. I never do

Can't be cool if it's on

Monitoring public scanner feeds online via phone apps or personal programmed handheld scanners, just like the news media, fire service enthusiasts, general photographers, etc. Right place & right time also helps.

It really isn't much more difficult

No running on emergency scenes, it is unsafe. Sometimes it happens, but ideally it does not.
