[mvfd525]

Great work and great video

[rjkay7]

Great Work !!!

[Larg127]

"DON'T RUN ON A FIRE SCENE!" Bullshit! Great work boys! Excellent knock down!

[ErikAtTheW]

Nice job by the first due engine!

[ocguard]

Great service. Reassuring to know there are still good firemen in suburbia. Great orders by company officer, excellent hustle. Good hoseline management.

[neil10able]

GREAT STOP. So nice to see someone who knows how to jack hose.

[GavinJLang]

Once again, why leave the cars in the driveway? Once you get the stuff you want out of your house move the cars away. I just don't understand!

[generfeld]

time to buy a new house. great work & video

[todd9052]

And I will add, everyone on that department looks like they know what the hell they are doing. Once again, great job!

[todd9052]

Great job guys. The public isn't too impressed when they see overweight guys just dwaddling around. Your hustle makes the rest of us look good

[0504sydney]

that's a big hose u have there Mr fire man LOL!!!

[0504sydney]

ya fire fire ya fire fire ya ya fire!!!

[atbglenn]

@0504sydney when your house burns down I'll jump for joy asshole

[TheWaynelds]

Man, witnessing something like this up close and personal is a very scary thing. this morning i was waken up @ 7:20 by fire trucks blaring down my street, responding to a 2 story vacant apartment building on fire right across the street from me. After they got it out and did the overhaul, a guy came to board up the windows and i had to call them back bc i noticed light smoke coming from the roof. The wierd thing is that exactly 2 months ago, the house right next door to it caught on fire too.

[TheWaynelds]

(continued from last comment) With both fires, Our fire department knocked it out in a matter of minutes before it had a chance to become well involved (except for the small hot spot that somehow skipped the 2nd floor & made it to the inside of the roof & had to call them back again) The fire 2 months ago was on the 2nd floor & they got it before it had a chance to flash over, but 2 months later and theyre still fixing the damage. Even a small fire like these 2 can still be really destructive.

[drbaugh21]

That's the way to flake out a line, make the U. All you pull and pile guys should learn a lesson from the guys. FINE JOB

[2007muggs]

@georgejacktheripper........yo­u have a stupid name and you're a dink. Blow it out your ass.

[hockeygoalie39]

The word's I love to hear out off an Engine Boss's mouth "Leave room for the Ladder" job well done

[luckysod04]

That's gotta be some kind of record

[steelgate663]

Well Done, excellent aggressive interior attack, Very Well Done!!!

[bapabob]

Volunteer or paid, doesn't matter. That was the best hustle, and initial attack I've ever seen on video. Communication was superb, forthought on equipment placing, hydrant location established, just about perfect! Great job to this obviously well trained department!

[FF12EMT]

good knock boys.. but wheres the truck crew to open the roof?

[CForks2]

@FF12EMT ..... uhhh not there...

[bkymic]

Excellent! Good communication, teamwork and fast knockdown.

[gogeorgiadawgs1011]

AWESOME AWESOME JOB GUYS!!! one of the best video's i've seen in a long time =) good job

[OBFDFF]

That was a good response (the part that I saw,) A fantastic knockdown, and excellent teamwork! Great job to everyone!

[georgejacktheripper]

whats this americans actually have a fire service? im surprised they dont just let the house burn the same way they let people with no cash die when they need to go to hospital.

[TheWaynelds]

@georgejacktheripper I agree with you on the hospital thing, but some fire departments, my area in particular, do great jobs at knocking the fire out. I have seen some videos on here where the firemen arent doing anything usefull, just walking around and dont start attacking the fire until it has spread to other parts of the house causing more damage than necessary. luckily my cities fire dept doesnt waste anytime as it was proven twice already. Nice username by the way.

[cassidyact]

Hell yea this rocks that's my aunts house she got a new one we set it on fire on purpose

[ireland9871]

@cassidyact im gonna have your ass arrested for arson u bitch

[Wonkawillie77]

Approx. 90 seconds from when the apparatus stopped at the scene to water on the fire! FAN-FREAKIN'-TASTIC!!!!! These guys know their stuff!!! One of the best knock-downs I've seen in a long, long time!

[vancey3]

i always watch houses on fire when i get mad lol

[jafrommeyer]

what's "handjack" mean?

[707westy]

@jafrommeyer like when you've been at work to long..... you know? Kidding, for the engineer(usually) will be pulling the supply line from the engine to the hydrant.

[mfpd6600]

Well done fellas! Great initial attack, pulled a secondary line from a different rig, placed ground ladders....very textbook. Nice job!

[Avalanche2]

Wow, nice job, better than most career fire departments.

[mes998]

very smooth...nice job



[cheliman1]

What a textbook fire scene! great work! Every firefighter on scene had PPE, and knew his, or her role! Backup/safety line stretched, and escape ladders to the second floor very quickly, and a great knockdown! Very well trained and disciplined Fire dept. Awesome job!! Adding to favorites!

[killerk1467]

great job but wheres the rit team not being a dick but as an officer.. just had @ fire fighters killed in ontario this past week

[iheartobama1not]

awesome footage

[USAamericaUSA]

somone needs to mow their grass

[kyle110796]

nice. was that orange hose around 4:10 a 4 inch hose connecting the hydrant to the truck or something?

[bitcheznhos]

what happens when a house is on fire and someone is in there trying to get some pussy while it is happening?

[geoffbruno]

Nice Job!

[CallOfDuty4Fish]

I just applied to be a Volunteer, JR actualy. I cant wait :P Best of luck guys, stay safe.

[hmvfc]

Guys did throw ladders, multiple ladders at 5 minutes and 6 minutes. EMS guys don't throw ladders because they arn't in full PPE and Chauffeurs don't throw ladders because their job is securing a water supply and staying at the pump adjusting pressures as needed and monitoring for any problems that could cause a loss of water to the attack crew.

One of the best fire attacks I've seen yet posted on youtube.

[ntfd125]

Great job boys

[wfd6912]

Just a question. I know it's easier said then done, how come the chauffeur or ems personal couldnt throw a ladder to the fire room? God for bid the shit hit the fan on the guys and they needed to bail? otherwise great job!

[Fire29Rescue]

@wfd6912 Agreed. Not to Monday Morning QB the job...but someone needs to remember to throw ladders...even if it's just two...

[wfd6912]

Just a question. I know it's easier said then done, how come the chauffeur or ems personal couldnt throw a ladder to the fire room? God for bid the shit hit the fan on the guys and they needed to bail?

[svfdnet]

Great Job!

[DyerFD171]

Jamie: Yowww

Captain: Your on the hydrant.

Jamie: Fuck!!!!

LoL Good Video

[cstoner15]

this might be the only fire video on youtube that does not have negative comments. so looks like you guys did everything very well

[gotgank]

Very smooth, very nice.

[modernwar2ghostrp]

We dont need no water............

[pumper8032]

That was a top job, no panic, no carry on, fast layout, fast knockdown, building was laddered by the next in rig, can't see any real issues there, good on ya.

[jcitrix]

On the roof, why did one FF not have full PPE? Is there anyone on the ground side Charlie? When that FF on the roof crossed the ridge to the backside, he could have fallen and no one would know.

At one point, a lone FF came back out the front door. How many were in? Four total I think. Should he have not come out w/ a buddy? 2-in 2-out?

The supply line is charged right on top of the handline. Does this pose a possible problem w/ pressure on the handline?

Thanks, just trying to learn.

[MorganSoftball16]

whoah, is this a firetruck??

[firekid38]

good stop!

[ATFDFF]

Great job guys, nice, quick knockdown! Also, nice safe response...you have a fire but aren't crazy. Just one thing of note. I am ALL for hustle I HATE guys that meander at the scene. But I get nervous when I see guys running when laying a line. Not saying this is the case here, but I just worry about the potential for the line to get snagged around something (tree) and getting jammed. In that case you have a FF running full speed, getting forcefully stopped and falling...not just normal tripping

[Jimmyd59]

GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!

[MWC3232]

To answer your question on why we do not mask up on the truck at this fire.... It limits size up vision and communication between the crew prior to making entry. With a little training you can mask up in 30 seconds at the door.

thanks for the comments on the fire

[jfagan3]

We rarely get to see fire attacks that go well on youtube. I'll be showing this to the guys at my fire house. Nice job.

[67keefer]

great job post some more please

[fchief200]

mask up before exiting apparatus? You're kidding right? Anyways, before I went through the replys to this video I was thinking the exact same thing; nice work. Good hustle, not balls-out frantic, but hustle, as it should be. Nice stretch, looks like a nice aggressive hit. Good ladder work, positioning. NICE.

[ajstevenqqq333]

They had good hustle gettin the fire out!

[alt149]

Great vid quality,lets see more. Super job on the fire. If this was my house you would be back,not for a rekindle but for steaks on the grill. Outstanding work.

[lvfd1078]

not criticizing or anything, but why dont yall have your masks on when yall step outta the truck? that way all you gotta do when you get to the front door is click in? just curious

[choad33]

@lvfd1078 My crew in my department masks at the door. Haveing your mask on in the truck hinders communication between the crew. It limits what you can see during size up and set up for attack. Finally masking at the door is a pause in the rush to do a check to see if you got all the tools everybody knows the game plan and the crew is wearing everything safe. helmet strapped hood on correct coat on right. we all check each other three thumbs up and its game on.

[raystinsky]

@lvfd1078 Both ways work fine, apparently.

[JACKHAMMER82A1]

nice job and with little manpower at the begining

[fire3fighter343]

very good job fast move on it keep up the good work fellows stay safe

[tennis1984]

[dandoosh90]

Dude perfect camera positioning. I'm also pleasantly surprised by how fast you guys moved. There are so many videos on Youtube of guys moseying about, not in any hurry to get a line in operation. Good job.

[MegaMantim]

Got alot of fire with mostly tank water...nice job!!

[NoHair28]

Great Job!!

[wyleek09]

first due engine co... did a gud job....was anyone home?? there was two cars parked...

[supreme2005]

@wyleek09 I'm guessing those are the owners in the driveway at 0:54 with a few things they managed to save.

[pmanson0624]

its nice to see a fire dept that works fast and safe plus all u guys had u PPE and SCBA...you'd be suprised at the number of dept's that dont follow s.o.p

[mooozer14]

Fast knock; you didn't waste a nanosecond.

Kudos all around!!!!!

[Saxman1806]

nice work guys....not even on scene for 2 min. and already putting water....plus giving orders prior to arrival....damn good work being done here

[thatswusup]
