To be able to maintain such a high volume of output without a fixed (municipal hydrant) water supply is truly impressive. Hats off to the water supply officer and members.
Sorry to be the one to disillusion you but even that is not a guarantee against having a catastrophic fire. As a structural firefighter I have responded to fires where the home was fully involved even though there was an early detection. LNG issue house exploded thank God it was not occupied at the time the homes residents were away and the cause was the LNG leaking from the gas furnace finally collected enough to reach the LEL when it was ignited by the pilot light of another gas operated heater the resulting BLEVE destroyed the house and damaged several others before we could get there. Response time 5 minutes Volunteer Fire/Rescue Brigade. Always be fire aware and have insurance.
@@davidlenzi3551 I never said it was. Anything can happen and your house could burn down or explode in a flash. Heck I've see videos of crewed firehouses burning down. I was just implying that a professional fire station in a large metropolitan area with hydrants tested on a regular basis would give me more of a sense of security than rural VFD's that have to truck water in with tankers and apparatus from various locations and distances near and far from the fire. I've also watched videos of responses to fires that by the time first units arrived after such a long drive the buildings we're already fully involved resulting in a total loss. I'm not disrespectful to those firefighters in those areas because many of them do an outstanding job fighting fires in that situation. In my opinion all firefighters deserve a pat on the back for the service they provide.
@@jimm8246 Seamos honestos,hay bastante lentitud y paseos sin sentido,o sea perdidas de tiempo innecesarias de algunos bomberos cuando llegan y cuando estan en un siniestro...Lo demas es cumplir con su deber.
Wow 😮 I've seen more than my share of big fires, but nothing like that fire. Hope there were no injuries to anyone related to this incident, I t think that the only fire I can remember that comes close to this incident. Is when I was a kid, there was this old abandoned factory that burnt that took out a whole square city block. Thank you to all firefighters everywhere for protecting the citizens of your coverage area.
So is this a cheaper way of demolishing am aging structure, selling a building to the insurance company or just an accidently fire that burned undetected for far too long before discovered. If fire alarms were present and working it might be a good investigative tool, considering what appears to be a very rapid spread, also the type of materials and fuels could offer an explanation.
Thanks for bringing this to us! Nicely done, great job firefighters! The Lord bless you and keep you, Turn His face and shine upon you, Grant you grace, mercy and peace, In Jesus mighty name, Amen.
Yip. Once anything go-up in flames, the only thing firefighters can do is prevent it from spreading to nearby businesses, and let most of the fire burn itself-out. And anyone on a aerial appartus, should have the oxygen mask on before ascending the ladder. Common sense.
