After watching hundreds of wild land fire videos, this is hands down the best footage I’ve ever seen.

This is some incredible footage. It's unbelievable how it was spotting and moving across that field. That grass looked almost like straw - extremely dry and primed to burn. Thank you for bringing such a great perspective to what happens in a wildfire. Those firefighters are true heroes. We don't see this kind of thing in south Georgia thankfully. Prayers for all that have to deal with this on a yearly basis. I couldn't imagine fearing this kinda thing every year.

That’s so insane how fast the spots take control. So much respect. Living in Oklahoma I’d rather have a day of 20 tornadoes than battle what you boys battle every year. Hats off.

You can see how a 1’ spot fire in dry grass goes from that to a 20’ circle of fire in 10 seconds. In the time it takes him to turn his camera that spot erupts! Horrible. Thanks for the videos man I’m glad I found your Chanel. Wildfires are so interesting to me.

Excellent video. Those awesome firefighters looked like they were playing wack a mole with all those spot fires. As quickly as they occur and spread, it's very easy to get tunnel vision and get trapped and unable to see your safety zone. In this situation, having more than one safety officer /lookout is very important to the safety and survival of the fire crews and engines. Stay safe. (I'm a semi- retired wildland & structure firefighter recovering from 2 shoulder surgeries).

Watched this last year live. Fantastic job.

Wow, all I can say is THANK-YOU!!! Thank You for all your efforts and the risks you take. America loves you guys!

Great point about how people in areas like this should make sure their house isn't surrounded by fuel like brush, trees, grass, etc.

Glad you switched over from Periscope to You Tube. Much easier to follow you this way. Thank you.

Man those spots are crazy. Went from a fully dry field to burning hell. Stay safe this year. I know there is a bad fire north of SF so stay safe.

This is the best up close brush fire coverage I’ve seen

Beautiful covered. It shows what CALFIRE and other departments do during these events and why they do it. Thanks for all you do 564!! Stay safe!!

Hey buddy thank you for the update and your service 💯🙏 be SAFE ✨✨🌺❤️❤️❤️❤️

Great video showing the spots and how quickly they take off.

Can we use this for training purposes in Germany?

Thanks for the having the courage to cover this. Very educational as to just how fast fire can move. Thanks to all the agencies for all they do in times like this. Property owners please clear your defensible spaces. Be safe and take care.

Uck ya, Cal Fire, I love you guys! Thanks for saving California again and again and again...

Wow! This is amazing and terrifying at the same time! Love this type of video!

This is what you call "extreme fire weather" lol. Nice capture of how fast things can get out of hand and why you need to stay on your toes

Super satisfying to watch little grass fires that are somewhat harmless. But the brush fires are the ones that hurt to watch.

This is some amazing footage thank you so much for filming all this!

That's insane how fast those fields went up!

Impressionnantes les sautes de feu

I've always wanted to get a really close look at how fast these fires can grow....any type of fire too...forest, grass, brush, etc. But man I'm glad this was the video I came across. Seeing how fast it spreads in grass blew me away. Didn't expect it to go that fast...more like half the speed lol. Amazing video my man! I appreciate everything you guys do...saving our communities, forming great family style bonds and helping the community with all sorts of fundraisers

Great video. Just seeing this. I live in Lake County

Thats is where i live and you did a fantastic job

Big props to those International trucks for being champs on those fire fronts, just like the hero firefighters.

Great video It was very educational.

Amazing video from Athens Greece keep going

Ya'll are amazing. Just found your channel. The work you guys do can never be recognized enough. Incredible to watch what you guys stand in front of.

Superb footage mate 🧑🏻👍🏻🔥👩🏻‍🚒👨🏻‍🚒🚒

Hi 564 Fire. What great coverage, you demonstrated how the fire can spread so fast with the spotfires!! Also explained very well on the behaviour of the fire and the technology of wildlands firefighting. I ve just recently subscribed on to your outstanding videos, as I have taken an interest on this subject.. read quite a few of the books regarding U.S. Wildlands fires and Your narrative on your videos explains the terminology and sayings from these books, very educational. Fortunately, in the UK, we don't have fire seasons Compared to yours. I fully appreciate what you guys go through, to save lifes and property, before thinking of yourself.. Take care and stay safe. John..

@1:15 fire starting to get into trees, a couple of spot fires........@1:48 FRICKING ARMAGEDDON!!! Holy crap that was fast!!!

Lol deploys fire shelter “make sure you share the broadcast”

These spots are insane

Stay safe when you video taping those fire's

❤

Scary how quickly things get out of control.

At the beginning he and those other guys are lucky they didn't become trapped. Those spot fires just took off.

I remember walking up red rock grade highway 20 just ahead of the fire. Embers were landing on my bare arms burned like hell.

at 5:35 i dont know why they didnt decide to back burn that area around that house, had good anchor point with the road

Hey sir, this is a great video! I own a mastication service / defensible space service and posted this video on our website to show the need for land clearing. Hopefully that's okay. If not let me know please. Thanks for the great footage and commentary!

Isn't it easier to make 3 strips of clean land around the recurrences?, or make 2 irrigator defense blocks around that are activated at that moment

It's spreading damn fast

Looking back on this I think I want to become a wildland firefighter

Stay safe out there this year, it’s gonna get rough and bumpy quick

I watched the paradise fire film on Netflix, and I’m watching this video right after

Impressive cinematography here. Dude is in the thick of it. Much respect to the camera dude and all of our firefighters out there trying to keep us safe in the face of forest mismanagement by the liberals running this state into the ground. #564fire #calfire #wildfire #fireaviation

Hey 564 do you carry a tool with you or anything

Wow that is terrifying

You Firefighters deserve more Respect and consideration/compensation from your government. Though I know this vid is from last year; my opinion is still true. Take care. Cheers from Ottawa. 👍🇨🇦

got anymore footage of the ranchfire/mendocino complex?

I think he wanted the broadcast shared but I may have misheard that bit.

Great video. How are you videoing and taking stills? 3 arms? :)

What's your background? Great insight and commentary.

Did they managed to save the houses or did they burned? Sry my english sucks I'm from Germany

Dude, just be safe, brother.

I worked that division that week. What date was this taken? Thanks for sharing. Great video and commentary.

when use a (SOIL OR MUD YOU EAISLY STOP FIRE FASTLY).

I can't understand why these guys are not getting paid what NFL/NBA/MLB ECT- ARE GETTING PAID! they need to switch pay checks I hate sports for that reason! Smh these guys have more balls then any sports game on t.v

Unitgamer said to sub

I fire fire in Australia

Why are those guys all just standing there lol???

so late

Did that deer have any doe? Yeah 2 bucks!

Usfs says 25 feet of defenceable space i say 50 feet

0:12 Walter White started the fire, obviously...

Attack it from the black and put them out with brush attack engine strike unit and i know they will be still be over run as well

What a disaster !!! .... like HELL popping-up all around you as the wind blows..... and it's SO much worse to understand that it was Arson : (

you're literally in the safest place you could be right there standing in the black.

This video is fucking amazing 😍😍

dude...grab a freekin hose! WTF

Yikes

You could have put out a couple spots without the drama

Veoma slaba oprema. Bogata drzava a kamione sa velikim mlaznicama sa dodatkom puhaljki velikih gdje u sekundi deset kvadrata gasi ne mogu da imaju i da iskoriste u slucajevima ovakvim. Cestitam vatrogascima gdje pokusavaju ugasiti veliki pozar sa malim crijevima.
