The powder would be horrible in very small rooms, also because I smothers the fire by killing air. That also means it's also suffocating anything alive in it

Yeah the test was not done properly and was done in the wrong environment. would like the hallway idea.

@@rivitraven things don't typically live long while on fire

@@rivitraven why do you think that makes it worse than a regular fire extinguisher, they do the same thing?

What if the fire is outside? I would like to think that my fire extinguisher I was relying on to save my life would work outside as well

When you de-energize a Class C you end up with a Class A

she's probably thinking of F fires. b is more like a spill, where F is like a half pot of grease

exactly. They used the wrong environment.

I was just about to comment the same thing. Worked on them for 15 years.

A flammable solids, eg wood paper. Water works B flammable liquids, eg oils, greases. Smother C electrical fires. Turn off electrical source D metal fires gtfo

Sean Rea lol forgetting class K my guy haha

@@jodysexauer9444 same, im currently in the navy and alot of what we do is firefighting. I chuckled a bit when she said class ABC.

you should go to the dome and make a super hot fire and put the entire extinguisher into it and let it explode and see how well taht does

^ this. Class B literally specifies liquid fuel source fires.

The scariest fires are metal ones. Like lithium will literally be ignited by water and start burning

Thank you kind soul

As a damage controlman(navy) that was irking me to no end. Thank you!

@@shiyotso1 What percentage seafaring-folk are firefighters?

@@matthewellisor5835 pretty much anyone that walks on the ship. When you join the navy, one of the essential classes you go to is firefighting. Because you are on a ship and isolated on a giant metal boat in the middle of the water, there's no fire department to help you out, so every enlisted sailor has to be trained in shipboard firefighting.

They say that soldiers are all infantry first, and their specific MOS second. In the Navy, all sailors are damage control first, and their specific rate second. I was a nuclear machinists mate. My General Quarters station (my "battle station" to civilians) was an AFFF station. I ran one of the stations that made firefighting foam.

Bingo. Just like the vase one would work much better in a hallway. You'd throw it and it would cover the floor/walls which would be much more effective than throwing it at a fire pit. Especially an open fire pit

"Ment"?

@@DaveTexas Yeah you know. The past tense of mean??

Brink Shows the past tense of "mean" is "meant." "Ment" isn’t a word. Anyone who has finished the fourth grade knows this. At least you know enough to be able to edit a comment, so I guess you’ve mastered kindergarten-level knowledge. Next, you need to work on adverbs, because you don’t have the first clue what they are. I bet you can’t even identify the incorrect adjective used instead of an adverb in your original comment.

Instead of playing with it 🤣

@@gunna2cool yeah, that's the joke..

@@yaboidustin2447 😆

Yes

You are right they are primarily used to extinguish dumpster fires

That's what I was thinking. In an enclosed space, it wouldn't fly everywhere and would mean there's less oxygen in the room too

They were literally standing in front of a big enclosed space that they’ve set fires in before.

@@educatedsloth Toss one into the US presidential debate offices then

Yeah, that's my take on it. In a room that cloud of suppressant would help more, but outside it's all blowing away before it affects anything.

Underrated comment

YOURE HERE TOO Just saw u and Justin y in a daily dose of internet video, Justin is also in this comment section. I’m now convinced you two are the same person

Hahahaha

They used the Fire extinguisher the wrong way. You dont spray "all" in once, you make bursts on the bottom of the fire.

I’m just wondering about your notifications if you’re everywhere like guessing on how many videos I’ve seen you on it’s like a notification a minute

I keep seeing you everywhere WHY

Also, controlled bursts, not a solid stream. You only have so much pressure and media to work with, so blowing your load all at once is wasteful and ineffective. Blast the base, evaluate what's still on fire, blast again, repeat.

it’s also where the most heat is. Aiming at the base where it puts it out faster.

@@nijamkaj Lighter fluid.

Agree, powder cant work if it is directed in fire from above with small stream like they did in video. I tried extinguish controlled diesel fire (during training) with 5 kg (10 lb) extinguisher, I managed put out maybe 50% of fire and my mistake was same as seen in video powder simply bounces in the air and wont work. Little later trainer used smaller (maybe similar size like seen on video) extinguisher and managed put fire out. He used maybe half of powder and I used all available powder ... around fire were all white but fire still blooms.

@@GamesMaster4554 yes 1 week ago

Were you not here when the actual king of random was around lol

What would said oxygen be in excess to?

As well as the gas fire relighting the wood.

I agree with you. That firepit looked like it had a fire/air funnel. So, it could get air in through the base where if it were in a house, all it has, is what is available in the open.

@spoonicuss I'm just being pedantic; it's not important to almost everybody, so I don't really know what I was hoping to achieve by pointing it out, but "excess" would normally be referring to that which is not included as part of the sum of what's required, or having a use. "Excess" oxygen would be oxygen which was remaining; the unused, or not required; the leftover, or the amount remaining once the total had been subtracted the required/used amount. There are other ways I could describe the definition, but I've covered most common contexts. I'm only wondering if I missed something and you pointed out something which could be relevant to the video for me to understand it better, but can come across somewhat arrogant, or condescending, when asking for clarification, etc. There really isn't an absolute necessity to be entirely strict with apt definitions if the sentence makes perfect sense for pretty much everybody that understands the context, but I pointed out, or questioned, the use of another word that somebody used seemingly incorrectly and it led me to understanding the comment fully - it wasn't clear from the initial format, but I'm glad I asked for clarification because it wasn't just me which understood it as it was written literally. Sorry if I've complicated something unnecessarily, but my annoying approach does sometimes produce positively constructive results. Granted, I'm learning that this isn't the majority of cases, but I do sometimes achieve more than just irritation!

I agree completely I’m kind of disappointed

I was going to comment that

Dont say it was a bad test, They were testing outside since its more safer than indoor

I was about to comment that lol

Ditto. Same. Agreed. Not used as intended.

I agree. I was thinking the same, they weren't designed to put out a fire pit. I was thinking more about floor fire

ABC extinguishers (which are the most common in use in houses and other buildings) are a dry chemical agent (ammonium phosphate). Most fire departments have a water extinguisher (usually 2.5 gal) which is normally referred to as a “can” or a “water can”, but the common fire extinguishers that are rated ABC are going to be dry chemical

Plain water extinguishers will exacerbate class B fires. The flammable oils will simply float on top of the water and continue to reignite and burn while being splashed around. If you want a water-based extinguisher that works well on class B fires, use AFFF (Aqueous Film Forming Foam).

Water is a big No-No for class C fires, as it conducts electricity. There's a reason why ABC extinguishers use dry chemical agent. About the only thing that water can be used on is a class A fire like what they had in the video.

Wandering Calamity that is correct, but once the electricity is cut to a class C fire, it becomes a class A and you can use a water extinguisher on it

@@wanderingcalamity360 It's worse than that. If you use water on burning oil, the water sinks to the bottom, boils and releases steam explosively. Water on oil fires is deadly. However, water would have been the best solution to the wood fire we see in this video.

There were a few videos that used the ball in a box, and it actually did quite well. Of course, not 100% effective, the fire actually recovered, but it did do better in an enclosed space.

Nobody likes me

@@i6h565 i can tell

That would be cool. Using real fire would be incredibly dangerous, but they could test the wet blankets in like a room with heaters or maybe a sauna. That could represent the heat from a fire in a controlled way.

@@rdp16rulez They should use real fire, just don't have a person under the blanket. They could roll a chair or a dummy on a skateboard through with the blanket.

I think you will have a much better result by using liquid instead of baking soda as well as some way to break the vial inside before throwing it. Two liquids (even as simple as vinegar and baking soda/water mix) will mix together much better that liquid and powder. Breaking the vial and shaking the ball will allow said liquids to at least somewhat mix instead of just relying on splashing. On top of that, the reaction itself would create some pressure so when the ball activates it's more of a fizzy burst instead of a splash followed by fizzle. Of course at that point using glass is a bad idea due to shards, but you might get away with other materials. For example a ziploc bag fill of vinegar inside of a (preferably heat sealed, or at least zipped and taped) bag of baking soda-water mix. To activate, squeeze the bags until the ziploc inside opens, then shake and toss. Having the outer bag taped as well as zipped should allow for more pressure to build up instead of the seal just cracking open. Ideally you'd use movie style breakaway 'glass' for the outside container, but then i don't know how the inside bag/container could get opened.

@@AgentWest Hey Agent West, thanks for taking the time to write such a detailed reply. I think your right; it might have trouble fully mixing in the flame AND the vial inside might not break. I could connect two glass containers side-by-side so they they both make contact with the ground and smash at the same time. I'm not too worried about glass debris myself as I'm a lampworker, but for others I agree a non-glass container would be better. Thanks again and have a great weekend!

Extinguisher, not hydrant.

Ok I can confirm that there are now better comments

You hit the nail on the head. The effectiveness of any fire extinguisher is directly related to the extinguishing surface area agent vs the burning surface area. The fire they had going looked small, but it had a LOT of surface area. This is also why we use fog nozzles for firefighting. Simple bulk water works very well too, as we saw with the water bottle. For more information, look up the fire tetrahedron.

Right?

Relevance?
