  • damn thats a big fire

  • Surround and drowned.... thats the first thing that came to mind when the video started, and sure as shit I scroll down and its the first comment. lmao.

  • Wow! Quite colorful,Yea when it gets to that stage,short of protecting exposures there is little one can do! Great video thats for sharing!

  • Well atleast the homeowners took one good thing out of this. The flames looked quite beautiful.

  • Best thing to do is let it burn, why waste the resources!

  • and where are the aerials? my dept. would have had atleast one stick up with master stream and 2 tower ladders mutual aid to that with master streams running and a hell of a lot of hose lines on that.

  • @longcut93 hydrolic plat form and the other is a pump

  • Heck, a few pounds of spackle, 20 gals of paint and a bit of sheetrock and it'll look like new!

  • This department needs to understand... LARGE FIRE=LARGE WATER!

  • i like trains

  • I like cows...

  • black ppl own this ?

  • damn nice house but big fire LOL

  • and its now a car park

  • Its just a little charred, its still good!

  • cool

    

  • Comment removed

  • she's a gonner!

    

  • "Engine 1 on scene, we've got light smoke showing....hold it to the first engine and truck."

  • Surround and drown

  • NO THAT'S MY HOUSE

  • when i was 12 i did this by accident to a abandon house that me and my boyz broke into. we lit fires to see and didnt put one out. you'll be amazed how quickly fire spreads. therefor i got 3 felonys and the judge sent me to a mental hospital smh dont play wit fire kids

  • @aBluntOfHaze lmao

  • kleine brand brandmeester

  • @freakshow771 thats fine, watever keeps firefighters safe and keeping their mind clear fight the fire

  • thats my house

  • Hey jake, this is Molly, just got a call from Doc. Watson. Said the old barn across the street is burning like a wood stove. Better round up the boys

  • @sumdood1 they are about 5 times of the height away not 1 1/2.

  • @sumdood1 yea  but the collapse zone they are in is equal to a sky scraper

  • nice video

  • if you havnt got any hydrants, break out the marshmallows and enjoy the show...thats why their insurance is so high anyhow...

  • lol can you get any further away?

  • thats a situation where you roll uo on seen and the only thing you can say is well fuck me

  • cant save it, let it burn!

  • must have been a slow fire station lol

  • @MSkudlarczyk2008 u ever seen fire grow before? it can go from a little flame from a candle to this in the matter of 4 minutes, ive had a fire in my friends house that went from a dropped match to fully involving the house in the time i had to get 500 yards up the road, get our engine and get it back down to the house

  • looks liek you coulve yoused a ladder truck on that

  • just let the house burn down. not even a tanker task force would be able to put that out

  • no Chance to get the Fire off...

  • Man.. That looks like a beautiful home too...

  • INTERIOR ATTACK :D

  • get a masterstream on that bitch

  • Pretty good placement of the hose streams, a lot of times guys aim at the flames at the top of the structure and end up throwing water on the ground on the other side! Aim low!

  • LOL its almost a waste of water - doesnt seem to be any exposures to really worry about. Just let the thing collapse on itself and call it a day

  • Surround and drowned....no way to save that place, but a god place to train Probie's....

  • @rmls34 I wouldn't even make entry to begin with. We don't have too many newer homes in my city, but from what I've seen they have tho POS floors with cheap support beams that fail quickly.

  • If this wasn't Clayton county then this house might have had a chance. I've been to Clayton, (I live in New Castle, DE), and must houses are in the rural area.

    There trying to build up big communities, but some people have bought huge aches of land to place houses like this on them. Unfortunately, the nearest fire department is 7-8 minutes down the road.

    That was then though, things have changed now though.

  • a little surround and drown action

  • i might be wrong but i believe it was from a flame about an inch tall but im not sure...

  • Anyone ever know how this started? Looks like a nice newer modern style house. Pity!

  • MAN! Might as well get out the hot dogs and marshmallows.

  • that was my house

  • That was 3 months ago..how you doing now?

  • a ladder truck would help put it out faster and save more but not much .

  • Save the garage door!, oh and the front door to! Don't forget the front door!.

    Yeah ... what are we saving again? Even if your not a firefight its pretty obvious that house is gone. No ladder, or anyone is going to save that house, let it burn, sweep up the ashes, let the insurance do its job, and start over. Sad truth, but gotta move though the tough times.

  • that is so tue like for are atation we just finialy got a new truck and its not the best but its nice.

  • i agree. Sometimes you just gotta let er burn but with an attempt (need not be a larger attempt) to extinguish and keep under control. especially for onlookers to help keep up community support towards the FD. Atleast thats how our dept. does it. Many citizens dont understand why the FD doesnt fight the good fight even though it is quite obvious!

  • Did you save the basement? J/K! Yeah a tower wouldn't have changed the end result... plus I didn't see any exposures. I could be wrong, but it looks like it's too late to matter.

  • You guys def need a tower ladder

    1:High rage of attack

    2:Its a muitpail story house.

  • @lordvader665 look at the uploaders comments "only 1/4 house standing and in a non-hydrant area" no ladder would have done any differance to this as they need hydrants and there aint any hydrants there

  • tower is pointless at this point too far gone just gonna push it back down

  • wtf no towers? um hello i think that would have worked out much better if u had a tower there helpin from the top

  • alot of places dont have that luxery. Most volunteer depts just dont have the means to justify needing a truck. While they are nice to have they are just not that practicle for volly stations

  • guys take offense to being called volunteers..................ev­eryone wants to be a paid man. The means are there dont be fooled..........the first state is not just a saying, they ask! they get!

  • wow grammer anyone?

  • @acadianmedic

    It's grammar LOL!!!

    That was awesome.....

  • @acadianmedic Fail.

  • @acadianmedic you're an idiot....

  • @acadianmedic

    *Correction*

    "Wow, grammar anyone?"

    Shut your mouth instead of embarrassing yourself.

  • @BIGRED224FOREVER i dont im proud to be a volounteer if i was paid it would be a bonus but i wouldnt change being a volounteer for anything

  • an aerial might help with that

  • Suround and drown!!

  • Only 3 Hoses for Big fire like this ?

    It´s like dropping a Balloon filled with Water into a Forestfire.

  • although it would be great training for rookies

  • This structure is obviously not going to be salvaged, there are no exposures, everything inside that is not burnt or damaged by smoke or water is not going to be recovered. This is were you just let it burn. There are no exposures, you just have to tell the owners there is nothing that can be done, salvaged and thats the facts.

  • I bet the insurance company will love you for that.

  • I was being funny. We had a class and a guy from dcfd was bustin our balls because we say heavy fire

  • Look how nice those hoses are all layed out... We need a lesson on that out here in CA lol

  • Lol yeah. That'll make clean up a hell of alot easier! Nothing like a fireground layered in hose at 4am!

  • lol I wasn't even looking at that until you mentioned it haha. they have it made if they are gonna throw a triple layer or a flat load back on those trucks haha

  • Looks like a rural area so even if the call was recieved when the fire was in the initial stages by the time crews arived on scean the fire would be pretty big

  • what is heavy fire..... i didn't know fire weighed anything. lol

  • non-FF folk..

    firefighter talk for "HOLY SHIT THERES FIRE" (lots of fire showing from exterior)

    .. or ur bein sarcastic

  • Where is this fire? I am new to you tube so forgive me if my comment are boring

  • it is in clayton delaware

  • What happend, did they dump gas around the house and light a match?? I don't know if I have EVER seen that much 5" on the ground at one time!!

  • I looked up the Clayton Fire Department, they have pretty nice stuff. To counter what Lindstrom says about the department not having a ladder truck, it's not true. They have a very nice 2007 75' ALF. But why use it when the house is mostly gone anyway?

  • There is a truck on scene, briefly shown on video, but due to heavy fire and almost total lost, only 1/4 house standing and in a non-hydrant area, the truck was not put in service

  • Well Jmed and Ryan who all of a sudden made you guys fire fighting experts. When a structure is that well involved it is a "looser " Truck or elevated stream would be nice but when you dont have a truck and a lot of places don't you do the best you can. You ain't saving it anyway. Don't knock them when you don't have the facts.

  • im not knockin no body. i was just saying that this is a perfect call for a truck.

  • Should have called for a Stick or Platform..

  • IDEAL REASON FOR A TRUCK

  • that sucks

  • WOW how long has it been burning?
