Thank you! I really like the new R1, too. This channel might be a little different from the others (which we also watch and really like!) because my 7-year-old son is a big part of it. The channel happened very organically--I started out taking videos for him, then started getting into it myself. The first couple videos I made mainly so we could watch them easily on our tv, and figured why not make them public. The response has been great!
Thank you Triple J Fire for another great video. I see by the caption that this video is 11 months old, but it is one that I haven't seen before. I commend you for your steady hand on the camera. I guess that is the work of Mom. Some video cameras in other videos get Jerked so that it is extremely hard to watch them. Thank you again & you are to be commended for your camera work.
Thank you! It’s a combination of good internal stabilization these days (I actually prefer to shoot on iPhone over my “real” camera!) and editing out the lousy parts!
Again I really enjoy your videos. As for your child's enthusiasm; I was the same way & at 16 joined my local Volunteer Fire Department and in 1983 became the Department Fire Chief. Although no longer active at 75, I most definitely enjoy your videos and hope that your child keeps the enthusiasm about all things Fire Department.
@@yukonjak05 I’ve never seen it, but doesn’t necessarily mean it doesn’t happen. I think it’s usually just too chaotic and unless NYPD was there watching it happen, wouldn’t be able to even find the drivers. I have heard on the scanner about units being delayed on a box because there’s a car blocking the driveway to leave quarters, but never heard the follow up to how they eventually got the car out of the way.
Not a stupid question! There is one Rescue 1 in NYC, in Manhattan. There is also a Collapse Rescue 1. Each borough has both a rescue and collapse rescue- Brooklyn is 2, Bronx 3, Queens 4, and Staten Island is 5.
I wish I knew the full answer to this! Blue is only allowed on the rear of vehicles in NYS. Blue has better visibility against red/white/amber… but I don’t know why R1 has all that blue and other rigs don’t.
It only looks like it on video but not in real life! I think it’s the interaction of the frame rate on the video and the rate of flickering of the lights, which I’m assuming are LED. Happens every time I catch an MTA bus on video! 😂
