@MASTAFLY Only 20 firemen there. Two men each tac unit and 3 men per truck and 3 per engine. They will call off duty guys or vfc in if needed. They had to take out a few spares for this fire. The flames werent the problem. It was that the elevators were burnt out so each guy carried 80 pounds of equipment up 17 flights of stairs, causing a firefighter to suffer a bad heart attack. Also they had to evacuate alot of people and most of the residents are either physically or mentally disabled.
@MASTAFLY Tried to get there but it was too far to walk and it was bad out. Lots of rain. Nothing was visible anyways. Still enjoyable to see all the trucks in one place. Expect another fire video around Christmas. I can go every once and a while and I think Im getting a good camcorder for Christmas. Im waiting for a fire with visible flames. I dont know what to do now that winter is here. Its pretty calm here one winter comes. Ahh mabey we need to make GTA vids.
wow must have been hell out there since you guys are understaffed
