chief....back the fuck away...you got boys to do that work

Sounded like consumer grade fireworks, no mortars or anything like that. Why would they do something so stupid?

dont fireworks become useless when you soak them with water? Why would they need to burn the house down?

bad

A fireworks fire during a violent thunderstorm. You go boys awesome

It was a fire fueled by fireworks in a wood frame home. They can't just wave a magic wand and put the fire out. They had 2-3 lines set up fairly quickly. They would have been justified to go with a defensive approach...but they chose to go with a more aggressive interior attack, putting themselves at risk. It always takes a couple of minutes for them to really get going because they have to establish a steady water supply. They also had to get through the garage doors. The fire spread from the garage to the main part of the home (not uncommon). They managed to get it under control and prevented the home from being totally engulfed. This was actually a pretty good job. Sometimes preventing the fire from taking the entire home or stopping it from spreading to adjacent homes is the best that can be done and is actually a win. That was the case in this situation. The firefighters did their job here. Those fireworks should not have been stored in the garage. They should have been stored in a detached shed in a backyard...and perhaps should not have been in a neighborhood at all. Fireworks facilities (retail shops, production facilities) are zoned to be away from neighborhoods for a reason.

Nice deck gun. What the ????

I watched a controlled burn of a roach infested house..they trenched around the house added some accelerant, lit that then torched the house..Glad i wasnt their neighbor..

It's as if the firemen want the house to burn down. They don't seem to be putting it out. Lots of people, no water. Nice to see all of that expensive equipment and the house is a total loss. Could have gotten the same results without spending all of the money.

Biggest financial mistake that can be made, looked like a nice home, they had a huge amount of money tied up in illegal fireworks, home ordered burned down, insurance probably not covering the owners stupidity, and most likely have a mortgage, and facing jail time, and big fines!

Touching. A sight to behold

Couldn't the digger pull it down?

Is that a booster line they are using on a structure fire seriously

wow this seemed really s-l-o-w response wise. wandering wandering....fitting masks....fitting again....masks off I guess because now we're fitting masks again. turn air on....is my air on? can someone check? no it's ok, i can check. yes it's on. OK, now tell me about this fire you reported.

Thank you for your service?

firemen are hot......

The fireworks display in New York State is garbage. Nothing compared to this one.

insurance isnt going to cover this

Another example for how embarrassingly bad american firefighters are. The fire was still small, and a firefighter was already there. The house could have been saved... But no. We wait until we start putting water on the fire. These guys suck.

Every year people burn there houses down with this shit

I hope all are safe and not injured. I am sure the husband is sick about it and will never make that mistake again.. Insurance should pay it because he paid the premiums..

Happy 4th of July 🎉🎉🎉! Oh wait......😮

Fireworks in the garage. Brilliant, but it's not insured.

Who is paying for the flooded basement in the house next door? This seems to be a terrible idea from so many aspects of safety and property protection. Regardless of the agency that organized it. It's a great watch though.

Chainsaw anyone?

This fire was put out quickly. The fire department had nothing to do with the controlled burn other than conducting it after the ATF and bomb squad ordered it because the garage was still full of professional grade fireworks that were unstable.

Get Smoke alarm and carbon monoxide alarm

This video is getting more negativity than warranted. Lots of mistakes and some lessons to learn for sure, but they stopped the fire. It wasn't a start to finish master class on structural fire fighting, but I've certainly seen much worse.

Insurance should deny the claim.

Dam big man dragging that 5” is NOT easy .

this was my friends house, also live right around the corner

Awesome video yet again! That was a great show too!

That last one was massive.

Why is it that firefighters can't have their BA on and ready to go the moment you step off the truck? Not very professional when you see the house burning and a half dozen hosers kneeling in front of the flames putting their gear on.

Almost had that on Bruce Drive :)

I say good job. All the Monday guys CSD.

Inexcusable! How do you not protect the exposures appropriately? The Bravo exposure most definitely has thermal exposure damage.

Hopefully, the insurance company paid for the control burn, and damage to the neighboring houses. Taxpayers shouldn’t have to foot the bill….

Where's chief's hood at?

1 3/4 attack line? Oh boy….

It seems like venting the roof before lighting it off would have made for a more efficient burn 🔥 and possibly cleaner

How did the original fire start?

Feuerwehr zündet nach 5 Tagen das Haus wieder an und brennt es ab.

Ich frag mich, wo hier die ganzen Klimakleber und Umweltschützer sind? Da wird überall auf der Welt ein großes Theater abgespielt, nur bei den Amis, ja juckt das keinen Schwanz.

So lets just store a bunch of fireworks in the garage of a residential home. What a stellar idea!! 😂

The US fire department cannot put out fires because they are too crazy, there are hundreds of examples, wood burns well - you put it out with WATER

Oh, so let’s have a play day and inconvenience the neighbors and displace them from their homes, let THEM incur toxic smoke…and, make it difficult for them to get up and down their street to live their regular lives, just for our self indulgence. Controlled burns are suppose to be that - controlled and in a controlled environment, which this is NOT! How incredibly unprofessional and wreck-less of these thoughtless agencies. What a fiasco.

Why not cut holes in the roof so the fire and heat could go straight up?

There was absolutely NO REASON to go interior with fireworks still going off in the garage. They should've brought a 2 1/2" line up, and used it first. I don't know why the officer at 4:48 thought it was a good idea to go interior with no hood on in a garage with fireworks still going off... SMH.

Clown show
