  • See? Smoking can kill you noobs

  • For Sale: 1989 Chevrolet Astro Van.

    AWD model, this car is HOT!!!

  • "looks like a van's on fire" how did you conclude that?

  • @acondrey838

    you know what, give it a rest, I'm talking out loud as I'm coming upon what looked like a condo fire. Who the hell cares If I speak out loud. Are you the you tube dialog cop. I think your comment about my talking makes you the perceived idiot here. If you don't have anything good to say then shut your pie hole.

  • @vintageyellow71 haha, It's all in good fun man, everyone does silly things, don't take it to heart

  • AHA IT IS THE SQUIRELLs FAULT.

  • Good on that company to train the newbie.

  • They had SCBA on their backs, but they weren't wearing them.

  • I'd like to point out that just one of those firefighters had SCBA on. Smoke is bad for for you - but include smoke from burning plastics, fabrics and glues in a car and you get smoke that seriously bad for you.

  • Now that's what I call a HOT ride.

  • I've seen people do this for insurance claims.

  • i still dont understand... what is it thats on fire?

  • get away from there, those tires turn into flaming bullets when the catch fire

  • get away from there, those tires turn into flaming bullets when the catch fire

  • you shouldnt have been that close to it lol those tires like to explode and the bumbers and burning plastic

  • @1Rooker Are you a Firefighter?

  • ....love the random firefighter prying the engine open

  • very nice video but why the tiller 1:12 ?

  • This is what happens when you listen to Radar Love while driving.

  • Nice vid bro!

  • good ol' astro vans ... they light up too easy, and to have an idiot with a smoke with gas around,,,yea buddy!

    faved this w/a thumbs up!

  • wow....how long to get some water on it? but on the other hand i like the way he closed the door!

  • what the hell they had a fire extinguisher just sitting there they should have used it

  • @benry200 Why waste it when they could just use the fire hose?

  • do you think it still works?

  • looks like fraud to me. 

  • Anyone got marshmallows or hot dogs?

  • Did that idiot seriously say, looks like a vans on fire after he already said it was a van ?

  • Stupid firefighters no SCBA on.

    

  • did anyone remember to bring the marshmallows, hotdogs and the beer?

  • I reccomend that you never smoke in a car no matter what! looks like LAFD was using foam?

  • SQURIILL

    

  • "looks like the vans on fire"  FUCKING EPIC!!

  • great job narrating. "yeah looks like the van is on fire"

  • @hlandscaping17

    wow, give me a break, do you have nothing better to do. what a pussy, go get your own stuff and post it instead of spending time dogging others.

  • @vintageyellow71 im just saying great job pointing out the obvious

  • @vintageyellow71

    He was not narrating that the vans on fire he was telling his blind friend its on fire ^^

  • @vintageyellow71

    So people that post their own videos are free from criticism? I had the same thought, as did at least 18 other people. As if it's not completely obvious that the fucking van is on fire.

  • @hlandscaping17 It's called talking to yourself. It's a great alternative to trolling.

  • WOW!! how did you get such exact information? Respect Dude. but really HOW?

    If you're reallly a good investigative reporter I may Have a job for you.

  • Actually, it is unlikely that his cigarette ignited the fumes, as it has been proven that it is impossible to light patrol or gasoline fumes by cigarette. I'm not so sure about kerosene. But being a fire investigator I can tell you that if he had fumes in the car and even attampted to light a cigarette, there would have been an explosion and a body in the car. I would guess the most likely cause here is arson.

  • Stupid american firefigthers. Why dont they use the breathingtube when they are working? Not cool enought? LMAO!

  • @vinkelnisse Stupid? You sir, are the stupid one. They do not need breathing apparatus while working a vehicle fire. Whats the point? You take 2 steps back and you have fresh clean air. I bet these "Stupid American firefighters" Are better than your Swedish firefighters. 

  • @CuseRecorder hahaha, miffo. Do you know how toxic it is? No i dont think so. By the way, I wondered why it took so loooong time to get water on the burning objects in US! I look at one fire and it took 3 min 43 sec. They just jumping arond! Jesus man!

  • @vinkelnisse By the way CuseRecorder, look at this.FULLY INVOLVED HOUSE FIRE-ORLAND PARK,IL . What the hell are they doing. They destroying the whole house. Why are they demolition the downstairs when it´s burning on the roof? Hahahaha, jesus what an A-holes.

  • @vinkelnisse

    Are you a firefighter? Huh?! Are you?

  • @vinkelnisse

    ventilation is essential, also the fire likely started on the ground floor and spread upwards due to balloon construction. so your best bet is to shut the fuck up and go to fire school before you ever comment again on fire videos, dip-shit

  • @vinkelnisse

    Traffic. Number 1 reason. Jumping around? How about you go watch some videos of your little fire departments and leave real one in America alone. Miffo

  • Stupid american firefigthers. Why dont they use the breathingtube when they are working? Not cool enought? LMAO!

  • Wear your SCBA!

  • So, your saying that your uncle is a fag!!. Because the owner was in him and he did not want to get caught with a dick in his mouth, so he ran away. Uneducated spik.

  • Did he really say looks like a vans on fire?

  • @Socom54 yeah he does .

  • Did he really say looks like a vans on fire?

  • A gas leek? Hmmmmm.........is that like a gas leak? Or is it a small green onion that gives you gas?

  • Looks like a vans on fire?

  • 12 people were hoped to see a video of justin bieber in a van fire

  • @txxmiles if only lol

  • Lol Random Squirl

  • no airpacks??

  • Was the squirrel at the end watching the van fire too?

  • speal cheque ur tekst befour u sand it  snoke

  • oh itsr varn

  • FIRE VAN OF DOOM!!!!

  • Ja ne ist klar, schön mit Vollstrahl draufhalten. ;)

  • this dude is on top of things this might be a van fire maybe

  • "looks like a vans on fire" lol

  • Американцы дебилы !!!!!!!!!!! Ходят как на базаре и огонь сбивают в сторону дома ...все на стены .. МОЛОДЦЫ !!!! Особенно этот медвежатник просто класс в области открывания дверей замков ширинок ....

  • That's awesome. Feel sorry for the guy who owed the van though

  • Those guys have my respect not everyone wakes up says I want to stand right next to a burning vehicle that may explode and put out the fire so it doesnt spread and cause more havoc. Hat's off to you guys, no need for a pissing contest of whose the better firefighter. Just do your job's well, its all that matters.

  • LA City fire...don't talk crap about them. I'm sure they've seen a fire or two. Yeah the probie on the nozzle should have maybe been on air, but no not really. In this situation he wasn't in a TRUE IDLH environment, so I would have probably done the same thing. These guys fight fire on a daily basis, they know when they NEED to be on air.

  • why doesnt everyone shut the fuck up and stop being little bitches because they did everything by the book. the smoke was going straight up in the air, not being dispersed around the van so they didnt need their SCBAs on. trust me, i know, i was a firefighter myself and ive fought my fair share of car fires. i took the training and i know how it goes. so shut the fuck up and keep ur fucking comments to urself till u know EXACTLY wut ur talkin about...

  • Aren't you in business as a Chem-dry guy????? That's not the way to be a business owner. I hope your customers don't read the stuff you write. You should be thanking those Fire Fighters cause one day you Will need them. I hope your van never catches fire. I would like to say thank you to all Fire Fighters! Your appreciated... Stay safe

  • fuckin yanks...cant trust them for shit....

  • i like the end (:

  • I bet the owner has a moustache, all americans do lol

  • WTF i saw 1 just like this this one guy was smokin a cig while carriein gas in da back of his truck he sped up we saw smoke we drove up and called 911!

  • weres the bas

  • oh... its a vanfire...i thought it was the building...

  • I'm surprised the firefighters didn't make you evacuate, the area could have exploded if the gas tank were full.

  • Comment removed

  • most firefighters dont wear BA's for a car fire...in fact they find car fires pretty boring so its a whatevers thing...ive been in a semi controlled burn where the firefighters engulfed wood houses in gasoline and i put it out wearing nothing more tahn the turnouts and a hood plus goggles...

  • i dont get this... there was the fire extinguisher beside them but they used the water, if they use the fire extinguisher then it would take 5 sec, and the fire goes out, but with water it takes much more time, as u see :/

  • @megvagyimmartizenyol That fire extinguisher is no where big enough to handle that fire, I don't know why they even brought it out. It would take 20-30 to put that fire out and it would not cool the hot metal at all. Water is the best choice unless they have the capability to inject foam in the fire line, that would be the ultimate choice. Water will cool the contents down and eliminate smoke quicker and allow them to do any investigation sooner, they will have to get the VIN# for the report.

  • @ffjsb sure, just every time, when i see (in movies xD) they always use the extingusher and it puts the fire out fast :/ maybe its because its a movie :D

  • this was in ottawa?? cuz riverside...

  • @

    Bla Bla Bla Bla- you're a waste of Skin. nothing better to do then be a retard on the internet. Real nice. the world is full of stupid people like you. What a blow hard.

  • @vintageyellow71 Don't call anyone else stupid until you learn the difference between real and really.

  • @vintageyellow71 Also the difference between leeks and leaks.

  • @TrebleClefRobert

    I don't remember dogging you or even writing you. Why are you writing me with such venom dude.

  • @vintageyellow71 I've already explained it. You had the nerve to call someone else stupid when your grammar is horrendously horrible.

  • @EMTBigBen Grow up. Excercise some charactor will you?

  • @EMTBigBen

    What is your deal dude? EMT? Please. I appreciate you guys and all but don't try to push people around when it comes to fighting fires. And judging by a few of your most recent comments on other videos your pubescent little punk ass doesn't know a damn thing about anything. Look at any response video on YT and you can point out a thousand things everybody does wrong, but you weren't there with them, so shut your mouth. Its always easier to point out other peoples mistakes isnt it.

  • @EMTBigBen and use all a favor LEARN TO SPELL MORON!!!!!!!!!!!! US A FAVOR!!! US A FAVOR!!!!!!

  • @EMTBigBen talk about morons.....do us a favour and practice what ya preach retard...

  • @EMTBigBen Hey, self righteous prick, go fuck yourself. Did you hear the fire fighters ASKING HIM TO SEND THEM THE VIDEO?? He was NOT in the way, your just jealous because you prolly started the fire you stupid fuck. I don't see anything this guy did wrong.

  • Comment removed

  • @EMTBigBen

    You're such a big tough guy aren't you?? Boy, you really told me didn't you? Boy, I sure won't do that again!!! O brother, go try to push your dog or wife around. People like you who suffer from small body parts can only get satisfaction out of attempting to be some sort of big fella on line. Mind your own business.

  • @vintageyellow71 dude, chill. 1. if he was in the way of the FD they would of just moved him aside. they have no issue moving people away. 2. it even sounds like the FD WANTS the video. so back off man

  • @EMTBigBen I like how you even go on to criticize the firemen for excercising there own discretion.

    There were squirrels hopping around gathering acorns and shit yet the firemen were remiss for not using breathing equipment.

  • @EMTBigBen

    Only pussies wear SCBA's to a car fire, why don't you keep your pussy ass in the back of the ambulance where you belong and let the big boy's handle the fire? Or are you one of those new pussy guys who were SCBA's to every little call that comes in and goes through 5 bottles of air on a house fire were the real guys that know what their doing only use two. Grow a sack, or take the one out of your mouth and put it on.

  • @gfd498 Your obviously some punk kid who knows jack shit about being in the fire service. Man I wish you'd come to my fire house, we'd show you real quick what we do with "Know it all" boys like yourself. Keep thinking this way boy and your brothers will be dragging your stupid dead ass out of a fire some day.

  • @chiefkyle64 Alrite "chief", If you were in the fire service your self, I doubt you would be acting like you are. Your probably the one who's the punk kid who thinks that because he visited daddy at work he's now an expert. New's flash ass hole, I know more shit and more about the job then you could ever think of. And yes i'm a career, and on a city dept, on an engine company that gets more calls in one shift then you probably do in a month, assuming your even on a department. ttyl Cadet

  • Comment removed

  • Did they send 2 trucks to this? Out of curiosity (if i'm correct) why?

    I'm from the uk.

  • @fwed1 this is probably a light force meaning its a truck company and an engine company put together (LACoFD does it like this at least) the truck and the engine are one unit

  • that squirrel is cute

  • This gives me more motivation to stop smoking hehe, flick a cig in his own vehicle.... douche

  • smoke'n what I wonder

  • you show so much intrest. Then go oh it's a van fire lol. I work FD. Did not take them long to put that ou.

  • 1:01 he says looks like a van is on fire. THanks Mr. know it all

  • that scba does alot of good in the truck!

  • And the mask does alot of good hanging in its pouch!

  • the owner of that van in my uncle JOSE but he run away that day cuz he don't have a driver licence ///

  • @TELORINODELHOYO

    are you serious

  • @TELORINODELHOYO ur realy smart saying that on here cuz the cops can see that and now they now he wus driveing it

  • @TELORINODELHOYO well your uncle if this is his was dumb

  • @TELORINODELHOYO don't be a fucking idiot..anyone with the name Jose would either be on a bike or bus.

  • @TELORINODELHOYO Or green card.

  • This is why the Valley sucks

  • D'oh!

  • A burning car is really, really hot. And they smell bad the next day.

  • Why are the guys not on air

  • a burnin chevy astroid :P

  • jesus people can be so stupid

  • Nice camera skills. Georgetown of Kettering OH catches on fire alot. It's not serious but will keep you entertained for a while.

  • I don't know who is running this show but why are they not wearing SCBA and are not on air for this fire? I'm sad to see such carelessness...

  • lesson of the day kids RULE #1 don't dry minivans

  • adam54ben, before you go shootin' yer beek off, try being a rookie firefighter, instead of a freakin' armchair quarterback!!!!!!

  • these guys are nt smart u used a fog to keep the smoke out of your face ya ok bt magnesium that is in all engine blocks and right under the gas n brake pedal which burns bright white as you can see a lil in this video. reacts crazy with water and will burn right threw your turnouts so thnk what it will do to your face.. proper ppe's at all time..and jst cuz u didnt get smoke in your face dnt mean u didnt get the rich fumes...

  • hmmmm,i was thinking wht is snoke when u writing lol......at 2:37 lol

  • I know. o well as they say

  • R u firefighter, a stringer or what, cus thats pretty good camera work for a civilian.

  • no, im just a regular guy with a camera. thanks for the props though.

  • Watch the very end of the video and you'll see the one responsible for the fire returning to the scene of the crime.

  • Well that is a dumb thing to say. "Maybe tanks but not masks?" What the hell good are tanks if you do not put the mask on except useless weight on your back. Vehicle fires are defensive fires. Not worth your life.

    If this is LA they should be ashamed. Full PPE 100% time on vehicle fires. 100% of the time.

    A chief off duty near here came across a vehicle fire with a person trapped. Went up to the window to reach in and died on the spot. One breath. Just one breath. They are incredible toxic.

  • but there is also OSHA standards.....

    that wasn't enough smoke to need to breath air.....

    they packed up because they were told to. But you don't need to breath air with such small amounts of smoke.

    on top of that "what are good tanks if you don't put the mask on?" those guys were in the back of the truck they ALWAYS pack up. but if it was your car, would you want them to take the time to doff the are packs for the sake of someone else's criticism?

    probably not.

  • dont buy a chevy van with out carfax lol

  • I see two things wrong with this video just watching it once. First off, the van is a total loss already so the first guy should of took the time to put an scba on. second of all, they should not have started spraying on the driver side. it could push the fire to the building by embers and what have you, plus it adds more smoke damage to those who have their windows open. they realized that towards the end of the video and changed side of the vehicle.

  • dude, whats that building made of? and how far does a wet ember fly? not far. PLUS, do you know what an amber is? typically wood. cars aren't made of wood.

    and who would "have their windows open"????

    I think your evaluating this too seriously.

    I wouldn't have my window open, and I don't think anybody else did either.

  • thats what you get for not littering and throwing it out the window

  • no shit what a tard

  • Good shooting

  • Thanks SWIFT, Keep on truckin. Have a good one.

  • In my opinion you should always have the proper PPE with you. Conditions can change and its better to be prepared for the worst than not prepared at all.

  • random ending

  • Lost precious time to wait for the water to be turned on - don't seem like all the practice drills helping much here.

  • Hey Toppass123. The van was a write off Einstein. And i saw no problem with the amount of time to get the line charged.

  • Those firefighters aren't very smart. Using that ultra high pressure hose. All the fumes, smoke, soot, ash, and embers immediately were flung towards the apartment building. They probably should have aimed the hose parallel with the street. Also, should have worn respirators, I think.

  • every fire department has their own way of doing things

  • are you a firemen ??

    probably not shhhh

  • u don't know what your talking about respirators u mean scbas? and no fuck no they're are not going to line it up parallel to the street they need enough space to maneuver around the car and trust me the embers wouldn't of caught that apartment on fire those firefighters are fucken smart! and your completely not learn! usually yeah always good to wear scba in this type of incident but if its an old timer they don't care really.

  • uh dont cars explode? i wouldnt want to get too close

  • whats up with all these videos and no SCBA ?

    i wouldnt think of going without in a situation like that. sure the senior firefighter handed the nozzle to the guy with the pack on but it wasnt long before all 3 were right up clost to the van. The smoke is toxic.

  • I agree w/ fireeater999cmcc, why bother wearing them if you are not going to use them. My guys actually use airpacks on vehicle fires. Its not a hard concept to understand.

  • Another great job by the LAFD quick Knockdown

  • those guys are idiots...where are thier airpacks?

  • idiot is you who calls it an airpack lmao theyre outdoors its optional haa idiot is you who is not even in the fire service

  • are u even a ff dumbass

  • lol... gas tank ignights.. BOOOOOM

  • lol 0:9 - 0:13 looks like call of duty 4 when u get hit by the grenade he's all shakey

  • nice footage

  • OMG its a house fire *runs around corner*

    never mind its a van fire *yells to by standers* damn its a van fire * everyone clears out*

  • Great use of the BAs you got on your backs there lads..... why bother wearing them when you don't bother using them, you mustn't value your lungs too much. Excellent video 71!

  • Moron, hes lucky nobody got hurt.

  • no scbas. stupid, stupid, stupid!

  • It's still good, it's still good!

  • thats a dangerous job, could you imagine if there was a propane tank or two in the vehicle

  • are you a stringer?

  • large fire department not wearing proper ppe!

  • Where are our mask? You have a guy on the line without proper PPE! Common now its 2009, LA fire you guys are one of the best depts in the nation and are suppose to set a good example as is every dept in the nation should

  • iI know
