Shortly before noon a fire was reported in the 600 block of Dauphin Street. Units arrived to find a row of 6 ordinary constructed (Type III) row houses with fire in two buildings.
A second alarm was struck and eventually all personnel were withdrawn from two of the buildings. The crews utilized a defensive attack to extinguish the fire from that point on and supported the fire wall in the third building.
The fire was wind driven and in buildings that were vacant and or under renovation. The buildings were in poor condition and cleared of any potential occupants.
Crews operated for about 4 hours. The fire was started by a burn barrel on the C side that extended into the building.
Outside fires are illegal in the City of Harrisburg for this very reason.
This video is shared as an educational opportunity. We operate based on our city, our staffing and our policies and procedures. You should operate based on yours.
We support healthy discussions on strategy and tactics. We do not support trolling or mutts.

My father was a paid firefighter for 30 years. He loved every second of his job. From the camaraderie, to fighting fires, to saving peoples lives. When he retired I could tell that while he was enjoying life in Florida, he truly missed being a firefighter. Hard to believe this March 25th it'll be 19 years since he passed away! I love watching your videos, Brian not only because it's clear that you love what you do, but it also shows how much of a hero my dad and all firefighters are. Be safe out there!

Thank you for the feedback. And I'm sure you're right, those who love the job while on it, never really want to retire and miss it every day after. It's a job that's hard to really explain to others, but it's really the best one out there!

Nice job, Chief. All your guys were definitely in "game day" mode. The high winds definitely showed how a solid block of buildings can hide a working fire without a good 360\size-up. I've been inside in zero visibility when two alarms worth of air horns sounded the evac......still gives me chills.
@brianbastinelli

Thank you. These guys work hard to be ready for moments like these. There are so many voids in this type of construction that can hold a tremendous volume of fire. We don't like to end up in these situations, but there comes a time when you recognize that the cards are stacked against you and you have to account for the safety of the firefighters.

These are what we call terraced houses in the UK . Vital with these types of houses that there are partition walls in the roof space between each house. Terraced houses are very common in UK towns, but ours are built of brick or stone.

These homes were built in the 1860-70's.They have a fire wall every two houses on this street. They are build of brick. The wood is an exterior cladding that was added in the 1880's.

From Central Texas, where we USUALLY don't get weather like this(2021 was the exception - I endured 4.5 days without power in an all electric area). When I first saw this, I thought they were going to lose it. Great job guys and gals. Some of the best work I have seen recently. FYI, anyone who has been in a burning building and have the ceiling come down on you - you know, they will always miss it once they are no longer fighting the monster. I got out early, so it has been 47 years for me. I did 6 before I left. I still carry my gear, just in case.

Good job keeping it contained. It looked like a firewall was a great help. I was a little concerned about the huge kink in the initial supply line though. It appeared that it must not have been too much of one since firefighters just kept stepping over or around it. Just an armchair quarterback but it seems that can't be good for the GPM.

Clearly good leadership, the guy with the body camera really knows what he’s doing and you can tell it gives the firefighters confidence and faith in what their doing!. I mean all firefighters are brave and do the job to help people and run into burning buildings so on other videos my criticisms aren’t aimed at them. I always state my point is about the training. You can just see how well trained these are, the whole teams communicating and working together. Rather than other parts of the U.S. where one firefighter is doing something while all the others just stand around… isn’t their fault it’s just poor training and no leadership direction. Hence why the guy with the body cam in this video is so good!.

This video is great for me, as an experienced Fire Buff and person who is wanting start a firefighter career as a volunteer. I realize this is a paid department and RU-vid is unkind sometimes with comments. But, this department is one of my favorites. We are located near Pittsburgh, in Wheeling, WV. Something else that this video does well is capture the reality of the job. It's nice to see music videos and fun videos, but in light of the events of the past few weeks in Baltimore and the reality that firefighting is one of the toughest and most dangerous professions in existence, shit can get real real fast and its not always rock music and flashing lights. This is an emergency and every firefighters' job is carefully coordinated. Thanks Chief!

Thank you, I appreciate the feedback and good luck on following your path into the fire service. You're right, though we often see glamorized versions of what we do, it is a down and dirty job, but it requires education and understanding and not just skills training. The decisions are tough and often made on your gut feeling. Coordination and constant communication and feedback are critical to helping make the correct decisions at the right times. You always hope you're doing the right thing, but sometimes the fire wins and sometimes as you noted in wins in horrible ways.

Wow Brian. You guys had a lot going against you on that one. Most of which seemed to be the wind which was not letting you monitor conditions.
@brianbastinelli
@brianbastinelli 2 года назад
Ya, that one threw a lot at us. The wind was a pain for sure. combined with the fire having a good hold of all of the voids and the poor condition of the homes, once we knew they were clear of occupants, and conditions weren't improving it became clear that we had to pull back.

Definitely east side cowboys. If that was western Pa, sticks up and let it rain for the next few hours as an initial attack. Granted there are some heavy hitters on the west, but few and far between.

Always look forward to your videos, Chief. Two questions. 1) Is that a typical response to an automatic alarm in Harrisburg, or was this call upgraded to a box alarm after the initial dispatch? 2) What was the reason for entering on the Alpha side, as opposed to the Charlie side? Seems like Charlie side was a better option as it would’ve put the wind at your back instead of in your face. I’m sure there was a good reason for the decision that was made, and I probably just missed something. Can you elaborate on this?
@brianbastinelli
@brianbastinelli 2 года назад
Thank you. Our typical AFA response (and initial fire response)is 2 engines, 2 trucks and a chief. If we find a 'working' incident we upgrade to the full 1st alarm which adds our remaining engine co, a county truck company, a heavy rescue for RIT a county air unit and our staff chiefs (up to 3). The fire was hit from the rear by the first line, but the back of the building was well involved and in very poor condition with holes in the floor etc. Also, with row construction many times entering from the rear is not something we are able to do due to access issues. A lot of these neighborhoods are backed right up against the next street with no alley or foot alleys and with many fences. That we had this type of access to this building was something atypical for us.

Thank you. That was the first of many falls on that call, but Ibuprofen took care of that, lol. These were actually class III ordinary (brick and joist) construction, I do not believe there was any balloon framing. But there are many interconnected voids nonetheless and that coupled with a strong wind and good fuel source for the fire made for a rapid fire advance.

Thanks for the question. We do not have an assigned safety officer. Initially I am the sole incident commander. As the incident is upgraded the duty chief and possibly other admin chiefs will respond. We then assign roles to them as they arrive.

@poppiarlin5612
@poppiarlin5612 2 года назад
Sometimes that is much easier than finding someone to fix it. I have no issue with that. 21 of my 41 years in the fire service I was a battalion chief. I never wanted to be so special that I couldn’t lend a hand. Now grabbing a hand line and making an interior tack is a no no, however lending a hand is another story. One night at a three story apartment building fire, I told the second apparatus to reverse law to the wrong hydrant. The entire bed came off. It was enough however his first choice was much closer and I’m the one that changed his choice. So I was right there helping load that hose right back on that apparatus.

Always a part of the team and always a firefighter. One of the lessons that can be hard to learn is where that line is. Knowing when to get involved and when to stand back is a skill that is developed over time like the rest. Sometimes I still have to learn that lesson but always working on getting better. Glad to see you got in the mix to help, I'm sure they appreciated that gesture.

They are all brick and joist construction from the 1800's. In the 1980's they were purchased by a guy (all of them) for $100.00 each. He did some rehab work to them and sold them off. Part of that rehab work was to clad them all in T-1-11 board on the exterior. Many people are supposed when they find out the age and construction of these buildings.
