Jacksonville Fire Rescue Department fights vehicle fire that catches commercial structure 

That is a fact...glad you could tell what we were dealing with.

@@thejfrd2490Go to show once again how stealth your Team is 🥹🇺🇸 ~ we appreciate your dedication and selfless sacrifices. God bless you.

@@thejfrd2490 I was going to mention that I hope the Fire Marshals Office recommends some better inventory control to them in the future. Separate the steel and iron for the aluminum and they could probably get a pretty penny for some of that stuff.

With all due respect, over the course of about a dozen videos now I've witnessed female personnel both in and out of full turnout gear, stand back and perform a support or observation role. Which begs the question, do they actually participate in actual suppression or do they just enjoy the limelight offered by the status of their positions? Again I hate to be that guy but it's an alarming trend I've noticed and it keeps repeating.

Appreciate your support

Us too

Not heros, just dedicated to our city!

Man calm down. It was less than an hour and this is their job. Let em work for that pension.

@@haulingfuel4759 oh we work for that pension...don't you worry about that

I believe magnesium is still used...but not a lot.

How much hose length do those big trucks carry? Looks like a lot. PS -- Fire scares me to death. You're braver than me. God bless you.

thank you all the way around!

It was handled quickly

Agreed and thank you!

It was hot and steamy for sure

Appreciate that.

thanks 19

thank you and yes it could have been.

Amen! You could say that again!

just part of the job...TEAMWORK

We put foam on it

I am a firefighter and I have amazing access

@@thejfrd2490 When I heard other guys on the crew addressing you as "Sir" I knew you were part of the department. Perhaps a senior member? That's awesome! That gives you unfettered access to the fire ground. You'll have a loyal following at work & beyond. I work closely with a volunteer department in our district. I'm a power lineman. They call what you shoot "fire porn". Arm chair fire fighters give sometimes useless pointers on how to proceed with out any knowledge of what you guys face everyday. My hats off to you! When I'm at work. No one dare offer any advice. They think we are absolutely nuts doing what we do?

@@johnclyne6350 I've got a few years on the job....

@@thejfrd2490 When I hear a few years your being very modest. That translates in my eyes as atleast 30 years under your belt. People didn't start calling me "Sir" until I had north of 34 years doing utility work. My wife says it comes with age. Before that I was called "hey kid-get me the Frammis!"

may have???? pretty sure you would know if in fact you saw this personally.

Thank you...I think the business got away fairly well all things considered.

@@thejfrd2490 Good to know!

@@MaryLopez-hc7rc not a ton to burn but old car parts...they have value to the business, but I think it could be much worse.

We were well aware of those lines

We are glad too

Should have, could have, would have.... No injuries!

And the lack of used of foam on a hydrocarbon based fire

Rookies? Please tell me what department you work for? Are you a volunteer?

We used foam...watch the whole video

@@thejfrd2490 IAFF 4173, Class 1 Department. Went through Standards on Stockton St in Jax. Yes, if your nozzlemen straight stream everything and have no idea how to use a fog nozzle, they're rookies.

@@RealJeep Shocking, as a professional, I would never call another department "rookies"...we are the largest Class 1 department in the world...our department is 1900+ strong...how big is Lakeland? I think you have misread this fire as it was deep seated in many engine blocks and in amongst a lot more trash...this fire was not actually in a structure where a fog nozzle would allow the steam to help extinguish this fire...rather the steam would just rise and dissipate and not actually penetrate the seat of the fire therefore cooling it like you would want from a fog nozzle... But thanks for your input! Come visit any time and I will show you the finest "Rookies" in the country! I did not catch your Name and Rank, please share

It really was

it sure was hot! A quick rainfall at the beginning made it extra steamy!

Nothing fancy about it....

Ho visto molti incendi in America su RU-vid e qualsiasi vigile del fuoco europeo si metterebbe le mani in testa a vedere come vengono spenti negli USA. A partire dall'attrezzatura, soprattutto l'elmetto, arretrata di almeno sessant'anni, così come le tattiche per attaccare il fuoco.

We disagree...MERICA!

First units on scene are always in their bunker gear. They don't mask up till they're there on scene to save air. Additional units dress out as they arrive. As for water, yeah you'll see that a lot where fire fighters are standing next to something burning and spraying other parts of the fire 30ft away. But Europeans love talking shit about how Americans fight fires but they never offer any solutions that are not already in use by most US departments. Or for that matter, invented by US fire fighting services. As for man power. US crews stack more people than needed to actually fight whenever there is a big fire like this because they use them to rotate in and out as well as rescue elements should something go wrong.

we put it out fairly rapidly

Lots of different things to consider while working this.

It is...500 gallons, but that isn't enough for this fire...you can see in the video a long lay of 5 inch hose (big yellow hose)

It was long, not sure exactly the distance, but GREAT pickup on your part.

not a huge structure, collapse hazard is minimal.

thats awesome.

the creek became an issue as we used foam and runoff with contaminants

Keep watching!!

bouncing it down on the fire.

it could have been much worse...handled quickly

Thanks Debbie

Maybe you should watch this again, and read the description...this is not a structure on a foundation

We are not the ones who levy fines.

We did use foam...but thanks

Agreed

Appreciate you watching!

thanks

@@thejfrd2490 crazy I used to live in paradise village and passed this place all the time... It always seemed a little sketchy to me but just my opinion... Thanks for the hard work putting this fire out.

@@thejfrd2490 btw will y'all be releasing the video of the rooms to go truck that burned today in Oceanway?

Foam helped

Very!

petroleum based products produce black smoke

It was only thing holding up that part of roof, smothering the fire as it drops.

it was still running...don't think it suffered too much damage honestly

ok

the radio transmissions are put in when available...they are not always available.

@@thejfrd2490 Okey Dokey

@@Wavy287 thanks for watching

@thejfrd2490 thanks for producing this type of content

They were working/prepping a vehicle.

i don't think it was as involved as you may think

We do not care to joke at others losses.....sorry

Where was your dad Chief? You are incorrect about our people...they are top notch...this fire was put out quickly.

@@thejfrd2490 my DAD was fire chief in Tarbela Dam most sensitive area...i saw many fires of switch yard also...many jungle fires many workshop fires.....i saw him supervise such fires for 20 years your guys were lazy and were not throwing water on right places where fire could have died quicker....but any how i did enjoyed the vdo as this fire brigade thing kinda runs in my blood...and you guys have so much equipment our guys never had any mask they only had helmets n boots to work with.....

@@Homeopathic.Treatment they are far from lazy....we disagree with you completely...but do appreciate you watching.

sure is...

Collapse was an issue...there really wasn't much to save, so safety was more important than anything...sorry you don't agree with the tactics, but you also said, you weren't there...easy to command after the fire from a video monitor.

we will look into it

It is a unit used to get our crews back to a working condition. Cooling, rest, hydration, check of vitals...

we are glad as well

Italian Fire fighters enter in the chat 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

the fire was put out very quickly...did you not see that part of the video? Or do you just like hearing yourself make dumb comments?

@kenblock5033 where?

@@thejfrd2490 stupid comments? Before making a damn judgment I invite you to look at how Italian and European firefighters, including Russians, operate. they operate in even more dangerous and narrow contexts than in the USA, with much smaller teams. This is because the tactics are better as is the equipment. only the helmet you use in America would be rejected because it doesn't have an anti-flash visor, not to mention that to wear the gas mask you have to take off the helmet. simply unacceptable due to the danger it poses in risk areas. I believe that the stupid comments are very different, given that many American comments are criticizing the work of the Fire fighters in America on RU-vid for the techniques that are still from the 1800s.

@@kenblock5033 lucky we all are entitled our opinions...thanks for your input.

salvage yard but a completely unorganized one i sure would not want to buy an engine or transmission from them in fear i get one that been laying out in the yard forever

"hoarding mess"? its a business

@jays106 actually, the engine blocks were all lined up neatly

Thanks for your input

watch again...I don't think so

That is not our lane.....

Not really something we worry about.

at least there are still some caring people left in this world...thank you

For what?

they were working on a car

yes there was.

go talk to them...you think that possibly, they brought the stuff under the structure to escape the hot sun?

But didn't

Solution: English

probably because you have that sort of a mind...legit business here

I would hardly call this "inner city"

@@thejfrd2490 I'm sorry, I meant within a city boundry!

@@cavalierguy6754 I am afraid that businesses like this operate all over the country

I think you are misinterpreting things...we all have our own way of dealing with things and humor is often one of them...this call was a fire and it was HOT, but no one was hurt and damage was minimal...some jokes back and forth are not the end of the world... sorry if that offends you!

english please

@@thejfrd2490 ich kann kein Englisch , No Englisch

There you go...Germany is better...go live there!

@@thejfrd2490 i live there 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

no idea what you mean

English if you don't mind please

Instead of saying "challenge me, anyone" why don't you say how. They got the wet stuff on the red stuff in a yard full of obstacles out in a rural area and hit it with 2.5" lines in order to extinguish the blaze as fast as physically possible.

How so?

@theroachden6195 he is looking for attention...my guess is he isn't even a firefighter.

That does not fall under our department.

it is a salvage yard...fancy name for a "Dump"

Not sure what exactly you are trying to say

We will look into it...thanks

glad you were humored

@@thejfrd2490 Still doesn't compare to seeing a 6in line charged at mains pressure while still in the hose bed. Nobody got hurt. All 4,000 feet plus the storks flailing around like a twelve pound sledge.

@@mrstrangetiger3228 oh my! Sadly these things happen from time to time...we always hope there are no injuries but also no slowdowns in operations

Well first off...is the "F" word necessary Secondly...this fire was put out in fairly short order I would argue that we were aggressive with this

@rivermcratt3683 "delicate?" Ha! Just shows how intelligently that you can express yourself.

I am guessing you are wrong...middle of the day while the business was open...might want to think that again

I think you are misinterpreting things...we all have our own way of dealing with things and humor is often one of them...this call was a fire and it was HOT, but no one was hurt and damage was minimal...some jokes back and forth are not the end of the world... sorry if that offends you!
