Had to wait for 2nd alarm companies and for everyone to get off the 3rd floor

Rescue 2 held em up

@@SkylerFire other building caught fire while they were waiting. Seems could of put water on sooner. But I’m not a fireman.

Glad you enjoyed

@@SkylerFire thank you for the video

And that's how you get yourself killed in the line of duty. Just because you're FDNY Rescue 2, you don't get to do whatever the fuck you want to. Command is there for a REASON.

Ultimately, though, Rescue 2 obeyed the command and got off the top floor. When a lieutenant and a deputy chief disagree, the deputy chief usually gets his way.

So true. R2D2 said they had it 6 minutes in and made no headway. To be fair it is a frame so a fire like that is expected to extend. Should have had a line up there when 119 went up.

Thanks same to you

Thanks

Good point!

Oh jeez! Glad it’s back for Christmas! Thanks

Thanks

Glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks! Hope you are all settled in now!

They had 3 lines operating. Can’t put tower ladder into ops until the 2nd alarm companies arrived on scene because they needed another engine to supply it. Members were still on the fire floor

@@SkylerFire good to know. Thanks.

For sure

Yes they are okay thanks for watching

Yes it was

For sure

Thanks

Thanks Happy Holidays

Much appreciated

Thanks!

For sure

Thanks! Will do!

@@SkylerFire your welcome merry Christmas happy new year

Thanks

Thanks much appreciated Merry Christmas

Yup

Yup

Only the best!

They use the air when they really have to

@@SkylerFire Ok hero. Air should be on EVERY time you are in an interior fire. Just because you can breathe, doesn't mean you're not breathing toxic chemicals. Cancer is real.

@@bradleypryor5586 cant agree more. I see it every time on these FDNY videoes. Its sad. Get the air on, and go attack the fire. Thats why death is so common.

@@dgvideodk You are 100% correct. Air is free and the "I'm cool" factor of not being on air is long gone. Same with having the dirty gear. On-air and clean gear should be the new "cool". @SkylerFire sounds like a FF wannabe to me.

Rubbish they should be using air anytime they are inside a smoke filled building no matter how thick it is. There is a reason why departments like the FDNY have such high cancer rates, its because of poor leadership and not insuring the firefighters are using the PPE effectively. I take it you have never been a firefighter?

Members on the roof and exposure

@@SkylerFire I figured there was just saying it was getting its tip licked lol.

Appreciate it

Sorry to hear that

Insurance should reimburse you guys.

At the command post you will have the 1st due battalion chief and division chief at command post…. 2nd Alarm gets another Battalion Chief that gets assigned as RUL which is Resource Unit Leader. 3rd Alarm gets the Citywide Tour Commander that can be a Deputy Asst Chief or Asst Chief. 4th Alarm gets another Asst Chief or Chief of Ops. 5th Alarm gets the Chief of Dept at his discretion

If they need 145 to deal with this then something is very wrong in the department and their use of resources not great.

Nothing wrong with getting some additional training. With that many personnel not using SCBA inside the building, and that much confusion and delay in evacuating the third floor, they NEED additional training.

Thanks Merry Christmas

Thanks. First week of temps dropping

Oh okay. Here in illinois it's candles space heaters

Slum lords people trying to stay warm. Also overloaded extention cords for Christmas decorations

Well yes

FDNY does an interior attack, searching for victims. They cant start with an exterior line, it would drive the fire inside.

They are old school. Go inside and fight it that way. I think that's a good idea, but with that much fire they should hit it from the outside to knock it down and then go inside. Keep in mind that they have a lot of tall buildings and that's the only way to do it is go inside.

We take great pride in interior firefighting even when it’s a losing strategy.

This is FDNY not Europe…

Good question. And for starters just like like they said above this would have been a good idea to knock it from the outside then proceed in, which we call a transitional attack. I dont not have a solid answer for ya, but we REALLY emphasize life as our number 1 priority. A couple of things though...we realize the severity of burns that you get from steam and in the ideal scenario we like to have an engine company and truck company in there simultaneously completing extinguishment and confinement, and search and removal, placing the hoseline between the victims and the fire. This is a perfect scenario that sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. And It would be pointless to do if our victims are either steam burned or succumbed to smoke inhalation because we took too long outside. Thus we classify our style as aggressive firefighting. Unfortunately our duty is a necessary evil. If we take on a passive approach and always stick to hitting it from the outside, we pose the risk of our perishable skills and training becoming lost and void. FDNY is for the most part pretty consistent with the amount of actual work (fires) they get while other places in the North Eastern America may not see as much. So what happens when it's actually a confirmed entrapment or a downed firefighter that we have to retrieve but can't because we lack the skill and experience?

Thanks. First cold week usually when this type of stuff happens

Waiting for 2nd alarm engines already 3 lines were in ops.

2 Lines off the 1st rig. On one hydrant, 2 lines off 2nd rig off another hydrant… tower ladder needed to be fed off another hydrant. They had to wait for 2nd alarm companies to arrive. Members were still on the 3rd floor can’t operate until they drop down.

@@SkylerFire Thanks for explaining! I'm not a FF but it makes sense.

Can't operate tower ladder until all members are confirmed off the floor

For sure!

Remembers where on the top floor

They were on the 3rd floor water wasn’t knocking the fire down, they had to back down. Was to heavy of a fire load

Thanks for watching.

Had to wait for a 2nd alarm engine to feed the tower ladder…. They have to grab a hydrant and stretch to the tower ladder…

Waiting on 2nd alarm companies… as everyone was committed.

Yes first day winter too

Thanks. Themajestirium is not my dad lol

Thanks

Members where inside….

Does sometimes

No

Thanks for watching

You have no idea what you are talking about…. They have to wait for water from a 2nd alarm engine company….

Hahahah

OOS

Typo thanks

Really bad spelling…. You clearly don’t know anything about the FDNY.

Because you fight fires from inside first….

Had to wait until the 2nd alarm companies arrived. Engine company has to supply the tower ladder hydrant was at the end of the block. Roof firefighter was on the roof ladder needs to be there to get off roof.

Thanks
