This is really quality video. Was the structure completely down by the end or was the shell still standing?

@OjibwaWarriors - Three cinder block walls remained standing. Thanks for the complement.

Any structure fire incident should be requirement for donning SCBA while enroute or on arrival at the scene. At least thats how it was where I came from.

Really good video and I know you were in a car. Nothing worse than listening to a bunch of blabbering kids.Next time pull their socks off and tape them in their mouths or lock them in the trunk and you'll have great video's.....

[saleen49]

@rico334 Most of the video was shot out of the car, leaning against a street light. Hey, kids happen. Thank You for the complement.

@saleen49 - can you tell me what is the blinking blue light up on the light pole by the fire?

[saleen49]

@sharppointy1 The light is from a Police security camera.

[sorrywilly]

Heavy smoke and no air paks on the guys on aerial ladder on the other side too.

[sorrywilly]

Heavy smoke and no air pak on the guy on aerial ladder on the right side. Dumb!

[enid0mom]

@sorrywilly And you can tell this how? With the long telephoto lens, it is impossible to be sure of depth of field. The smoke could be 100 feet in front of the guys on the aerial ladder (between the camera and the ladder).

what an amazing video. I read the article and there was one tenant living in the build and she had to jump out the second floor window. (no fire escape???) She was treated and released from the hospital along with a fire fighter. The article also said the Arson investigator was looking into the fire.
