Sounded kinda like the squak box from Emergency there at the beginning. You knew when that thing went off for anything over 10 seconds, stuff was about to get serious for Squad and Engine 51. Impressive RAC rig they got there! Excellent work with the drone as usual!
Fantastic footage. It was amazing to see all the emergency personnel working hard at getting the fire 🔥 out. I've never seen so many tanker trucks on one call. I hope there were no injuries fighting this fire. Have a great day my friend,and stay safe ❤️🙂⚘️🚒.
Hopefully there were no injuries to anyone related to this incident, a massive area to control. Thank you to all firefighters everywhere for protecting the citizens of your coverage area.
Yea the OC will call for a strike team of tankers . These are already set up in advance . But you can call for a strike team of anything trucks , engines , EMS
I never cease to be amazed how municipalities and counties allow structures such as this to be constructed without a source of water that can provide ready water to multiple fire apparatuses and sprinkler systems. Internal sprinkler systems use a lot of water and will run a well dry in a matter of minutes. It's a wonder that an insurance provider would even consider covering such a structure.
I tend to agree with you. A structure that big in a rural area should have been made to have their own water supply or not even allowed to be built in that area.
Wow ! i think this is the most tankers i have ever seen at a call out in a video! I know its rural and no Hydrants ect so with the warehouse / factory being so large ect they were definatly needed! bravo to all the fire crews who attended in fighting this masive fire and im glad no one was hurt or injured in tackling it. I salute you from the UK as has been said further down all firefighters no matter what country ect they are in are all part of a brotherhood that stand together through good times and bad!
Don’t think this fire was knocked. Looks like majority of it was because it burned most of the fireload. Tough when you’re relying on tankers for your water supply. Nice work on the video.
I find it amazing they were trying to draw all the water off one hydrant....seems they would set up multiple drawing points with all the trucks waiting idle in line.
They must have had a contingency plan to get so many water tankers responding so quickly. I think I counted 18, but it was hard to count. I liked the multi coloured ladder, it sure made it visible! 🇨🇦
I guess the tub is faster than making & breaking hard connections? Great footage; crazy tanker relay. I'm amazed the facility didn't have a sprinkler tank.
Ephrata, PA, had a similar fire about a month ago. Martin's Country Market had a 4-alarm fire. They had units from Lancaster, Lebanon, Berks, and Chester Counties. Lots of tankers there too.
when ya say they got a good knock on it and they obviously dont as that is still a good 5 alarm fully involved structure fire . The core of that building is gutted and visible fire showing all four corners . Its contained sure but by no means knocked
Well, of course all these tanker trucks are needed due to a shortage or even absence of fire hydrants close enough to the response site! No wet stuff to put on the hot stuff means to sit and wait for the fire to go out by itself! I wonder why water supply is a problem in industrial areas, where fires may have dire consequences, as opposed to "ordinary" building fires. Otherwise these firetrucks are just awesome! Did I spot some yellow trucks? I had always thought fire trucks are red! All the best! Oh, I forget: great drone footage at 5:50!
Wish you wouldn't spend so much time filming the trucks. We can't see the progress in knocking down the fire if we don't see it from the earliest possible footage.
Nice drone work. Were you able to share that with the IC in real time? Maybe they should have called in some front end loaders, to breach some walls, to allow access for more hoselines.
Wow, great catch, so much cool stuff in this video. Never saw a full canteen unit before, other than RACs, and so many tankers. And the drone shots are always amazing. Thanks!
Hello and many greetings from Germany First of all: A huge thank you to all firefighters, not just the American ones, all firefighters all over the world, for the very often dangerous job they do. This was the first time I saw that a fire department had a mobile canteen. Could we get more information about this vehicle? I would be particularly interested in the supply capacity. And at the same time, kudos to the unit that maintains such a vehicle. It's always all too easy to forget how important this vehicle is to the forces deployed. Therefore, a big thank you to this unit that owns and operates this vehicle. The Lady
A canteen is commonly not owned by a fire department due to taxpayer funding being much more needed to go for other safety related equipment. This part of the country will tax the citizens to the extreme and throw away the money on a canteen for a fire department. The upkeep on that thing would be expensive, adding to the fact it would rarely be used. In more sane parts of America, the local RedCross chapter will pay a local food truck operator to set up a canteen when there is a larger fire to contend with, and the red cross will pay for the food.
The Best in Show of the Great Tender Parade had to be the tractor tanker from Vineland. Good lord there had to be tenders from other States! Amazing video too.

Dam would have stuck around if I knew you were floating around the scene,I was there early on in the job since it’s a mile away from me, had some good access to the scene I could have got you in for some good footage.
Snowball turkey factory closed more then 10 years ago. It had become a hangout for degenerate kids and some urban explorers. My friend lives across the street and there was just a fire a couple months ago and some shady people caught trying to steal equipment. It has been an ugly landmark in our town for too long.
