Elkhart Brass was proud to sponsor the first ever High-Rise Operational Tactics Thought-Leadership (HOTT) Event at the UK Fire Service College in Morten-in-Marsh. We brought several of the top instructors from the US to the UK to meet up with trainers and firefighters from all over the world to talk strategy, tactics, and share ideas.
This is a mini-documentary about the trip and lot of the take aways. We tackled it all!
Gas Cooling vs Surface Cooling
Built Environments
Target Flows
Nozzle Types
Water Supply
Turnout Gear
Apparatus
Many want to point out the differences between the USA and our European brothers and sisters, but we simply learned "There is nothing foreign about flowing water!"

The ending line about water is great.

No walking about on roofs, cutting holes was done. Good. Note: the UK does not have a national fire service. Only Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own national fire services. England and Wales have regional fire services, each with their own training facilities. Wales has 3 regional fire services, and England has 45.

Great event, should have all US departments watch this. Regardless of anyones thoughts on the smooth/fog argument, the point stands that firefighters around the world want to be the best and perform at our best. At the end of the day, we are all brothers in service to our communities and each other. Bickering and fighting divides; collaboration and communication unites. I wish we could host international, hands-on conferences like this all over so everyone could see how closely connected the fire service really is.

Fantastic documentary showing how much we are the same and at the same time how local firefighting around the world is. And just as a side note from a former German firefighter now serving in 🇨🇦 …. “European” is as much of a brought description as “American” firefighting. There are many differences all across the continents. But what we all have in common is serving and protecting the people #forThem

Fantastic video and well presented. As a UK firefighter used to gas cooling and not using our 45mm/52mm and 70mm hoses often, this video was very informative.

one thing I love... there is not "one single perfect solition" for all problems and challenges, it is a healthy mix of everything needed that helps solve the problems the one part at 09:00 was interesting when he explained the issue with standpipe systems and 10 floors as well as fog nozzles... they teach their firefighters both versions for attacking... because it is the healthy mix as it turns out... the propper technique for the challenging situation thx for this documentary and the insight in this international project

@firey9998 Год назад

Great documentary guys, I’m a UK firefighter and learnt so much watching this. I’ve always thought in the Uk we over complicate fire attack with science and figures. When in reality we should be using more of a straight stream approach to get on top of fires. Thanks👍

@joshuathomas3309 Год назад

I have never had the two ideas shown and compared and discussed so well. In my region we started adoptin european style but probably not very well, as Chubb said its not extinguishment cooling gasses. We have started avoiding and not even using smoth bores and pick on too much water but forget we subconsciously go to it when in defensive structure fire fighting and aerial assistance .

@courtneyhull5988 Год назад

Thank you so much for putting this together and sharing your experience! I’ve wanted to visit the UK Fire Service College since I had an opportunity to train with the Oxford Fire Brigade while studying abroad my senior year of College (2002). (I’m from US) I now challenge my fire/ems students to complete a global research paper in their education because it’s important to compare/contrast and learn from each other. This was a fantastic watch and I’m sure I’ll be watching again and again!

UK mostly have brick buildings, but Sweden has a lot of buildings built out of wood and the same technique is used there as far as I can gather. Amazed that the US has about 3,5 times the amount of water per minute!

@dalesaucier Год назад

What a great opportunity that you guys had and I thank you for sharing your experience. I have great respect for all of the American Fire Service reps in this video. It was awesome to see the instruction and tactics of our UK counterparts and the explanation of their tactics.

UK person here. Morton in the Marsh is just up the road from me in Worcestershire! Great video! My Grandad was a firefighter after doing the Artic Convoys with the Navy in WW2. I used to beg him to tell me stories of fighting fires. He was in Bromyard, a really rural little town and outside my Grandparents house was a bell on a pole which was the old alarm system apparently. One night I could smell burning and i kept telling my Nan, then low and behold the Safeway over the road was fully engulfed! I watched it for hours from my bedroom window.

@alanm8932 6 месяцев назад

That's a relief! I was thinking your fascination with firefighting stories was going to lead to a mysterious fire in your own home... Glad to hear it was the nearby Safeway store.

@Paramedic772 Год назад

@johnmacdonald2556 Год назад

What a fantastic documentary which shows a multi-layered approach to dealing with and managing fires within structures.

@gordonwybo898 Год назад

We as firefighters can always learn something new regardless of how many years on the job.

@fenztiny Год назад

That was just awesome to watch. I'm a volunteer firefighter from New Zealand and I've learnt some new tactics that I'll try at training. Please keep these videos coming. We can never stop learning and we should never stop going back over the basics

@alanm8932 6 месяцев назад

6:25 interesting to hear UK firefighting is focused on masonry buildings. I've noticed a lot of new homes in southern England are masonry ground floor with timber frame & OSB (wood sheet) upper floor. I hope the water supply is suitably upgraded where they are building these houses.

@lucasnadeau2376 Год назад

Awesome to see the continued determination and dedication that these firefighters have. This is how the best get better, by sharing and learning with others from across the Globe. At the end if the day we all have the same goal, and that is everyone goes home. EGH

@PaulCoatesTrailRunning Год назад

Great video. I work at Fire Service College as an associate instructor for ship fire training. As a recruit we did smooth bore, then trained for gas cooling /smooth bore. Ship fires require additional training and we try to limit the amount of water, as the steam produced can burn crews. I wonder how the smooth bore technique onto ceiling/ walls (decks) would work on a ship fire?

@almerindaromeira8352 Год назад

I would have liked to see some german points of view. Maybe next time.

@thecornishwildcamper Год назад

I'm not in the fire service but watching this and the techniques used are very interesting and I'd like to learn more about fire science.

@st05002125 Год назад

Excellent video, of a fantastic facility, team and practice development. I’ve have the good fortune of being a paramedic faculty member on the RTC-I course at this venue, with firefighters from around the UK and the world. Honestly the best training and development facility I have ever visited!! From and outsider looking in - I was left wondering if there is a feasibility to manufacture nozzle that delivers droplet and smooth stream flow simultaneously, and use the draw effect of the higher flow to move the droplets deeper into a room, cooling both gasses and surfaces together?

Greetings from Detroit, Michigan I wish I could’ve been there for this. Does anybody know if FDNY retired chief Jerry Tracy was there? He lives for this stuff, wrote a book about high-rise fires.
