Doesn't look like there's any reason to be on that roof. It's starting to self vent, meaning the structure is starting to fail. Should've gone defensive sooner. Don't die for a building.
@25mfd Its hard to say, what I can say is that more often than not, you need guys up on the roof to ventilate so interior guys can fight fire on the inside. Without the truckies, interior attack would be so f-ing difficult because it will be hotter than hell and you wouldnt be able to see anything.
@ross0the0man its true u buttmunch, LAFD is the slowest fattest bunch of slobs that there is in the fucking land. they just sit on their fat asses and stuff their face with burgers and pizza all day long. only thing they're trained on is nose picking.
Until you are the guy driving this truck, and pull up with all kinds of overhead obstructions, and need to get the stick up because your crew is going to the roof, you will find the best way to get it in place. I would have done the same, and If anyone knows anything about this truck company, saying they know what their doing is an understatement.
@Iggyracin Huh? I'm not familiar with the term. If it's a cable in the air, it's not friendly around here. Either way there are a butt load of other cables directly above that one aswell.
@monkeybone444 Its a Cable TV or Phone line. and although I dont agree with making your guys raise and lower it to get through its not an immediate threat. And yes I don't deny there are TONS of other lines above but in this situation it looks like all sides have lines above them but they appear to be a safe distance away and the lines are in no immediate danger from stress due to the fire. Anyway hope you had a good Thanksgiving.
Risk Management anyone? Risking what to save what? This isn't a question of aggressive or effective truck work it is question of effective risk vs benefit analysis.
@19hamish78 conservation of life and property. Idk where you are from but I'm pretty sure that's a universal thing. And just FYI, LA City truckies are some of the most effective and aggressive roof ventilators in the world so be careful when you think that they are performing random tasks. I urge you to watch some of the other videos of LA city firefighters performing roof vents and see how fast and effective they are, there are plenty. Just don't regard them as careless!
thats not a power line you moron. you better read up on where each line is placed. power is at the top idiot! the line above the truck ladder is a phone line.
They obviously cut the power, but still.. I agree a very dumb thing to do while climbing up a ladder... And in addition where the fuck are there SCBA Masks???? i guess there lovin that smoke.
@FireFighter3281 It wasn't a dumb thing to do. They have to get on top of that roof somehow. You weren't their therefore you don't know the situation.
@Kopihucky Really, so running inside and climbing on top of a burning building is minimizing the risk? They probably placed the later in that position because it may have been the best position. You weren’t there so you don't know the situation.
@xFreakPyromaniacx If you don't know what you are talking about dont comment on it. Likely you don't even know why ff go on a roof. You clearly don't know the diff between risk mitigation either.
@Kopihucky I know what I'm talking about. Don't get mad at me because I'm not the one leaving irrational comments. Also has it ever occurred to you that power lines have insulation and perhaps the power was cut off at the time?
They go to the roof alot of times when they shouldn't. Ya its not vent well when its blowing out thru the roof. Risk assessment. Some crappy LA warehouse. Heres a news flash: they actualy go out by them selves. Why put someone on that roof so the fire will go out at 12:00. Do nothing it goes out by itself 2 hrs later.
first no reason to step foot on the roof it says that this building is a warehouse there is prob a big fire load inside , secound at 1.35 you have the biggest cluster fuck of hose ive ever seen have you ever heard of supply line ?
yeah..lets go vent the roof that is already vented...keep stupid stuff like that up and you will have a LODD on your hands....surround and drown next time guys...also look and see if you have a few master streams instead of that 1 1/2 hose that was a mess by the truck.
Looks like a phone line wire. Not high voltage. We have had this video at every IST that subjects Roof operations. This fire got out of control fast and these guys did the best they could in a tight space!
LOL! I wonder why LAFD thinks their sh*t doesn't stink...? That is about as unprofessional a fire scene as I've ever seen. WTF was the Truck co doing? Not one of the truckies wearing a mask, not to mention the engine ops with spaghetti hose lines everywhere!
It is so funny to me when some guy gets on here and criticizes a fire video that was not even present! Where do you work? have you ever been to a fire like this one? These guys get these pretty often, but this fire got out of control fast and they got off the roof! No one died or got hurt, so they did their job just fine. Arm chair quarterbacks are so funny to me. I do not even work for LAFD and i think it is lame to talk shit when you have not the slightest idea what u are talking about.
idk i understand your circumstances but thw hose is unexcusable that was pretty bad atleast have your lines organized but everything else was well done .....so what they drooped that ladder shit happenes no body got hurt that all that matters
I know for a fact you're department would have killed 3 or 4 guys if you were at this fire. I have seen hick department on these and they stick 100 hoses in windows and do not even do truck operations. They wait for the fire to vent itself out the roof and put a snorkel up and surround and drown, huh? Then all high five each other, go back to the station and get called back for a re-kindle 8 hours later. LAFD is the shit and they do a good job! LA County is better, but that is hear nor there!
none of that ever happen, stop acting like a tuff guy. We all know u are a fat little poser. You do not have to lie to make friends and be "cool" so fuck you!
You do not have to lie to make friends and be "cool" Ahhhh, is that what your mummy told you, cause you were so unpopular, you wanker,if you ever fancies your chances or want to send any off your gay mates to fight your batlles, there will be a nice reception for you at Soho fire station in london. i aint wasting my time talking to a prick like you anymore
I know LAcoFireGuy we are very good friends, and his name is dennis. This is youtube, and we are all firemen! NYC's fires are just as hot as L.A. County's and United Kingdoms. We do the same job everyday. This you tube stuff is crazy! we need to back each other up always!

hey are you having conversations with your self? do you know how gay that looks? LACITY68 and I both know how gay you are! you homo, and FDNY does make fun of you, you scone eating fags!!!! go steal another identity u homo wanker!
LAcoFireGuy!!!! I found you dennis! its ralph. I had to change my 3 year account because of some weirdo fire buff. He was leaving stalker messages on my profile, emails, lol!! This looks like a nasty job! is this county's or city's fire? either way you guys now what the fuck you are doing! Hey see ya for the St Patty's Day parade!!! I already talk to rick, can't wait. call me
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Who is this guy? he is 40 years old and acts like this? I know he is not a fireman now. LOL everyone knows our departments are the best! I bet he has every season of EMERGENCY! hey confagman, come by station 127 in carson! That's where they filmed the show. They might show you the flashing lights on their rig!!!! you retarded homo!
I was there after the fact and I do not remember any guys from the UK there. We have USAR teams, and would not call outside help in for that incident. nice try liar. you were not in new york, and you are not a firefighter, so stop trying to look cool. You need to fight fire to be the best in the world.
LA County gets fire, LA City gets fire, FDNY gets fire, Dallas? fire. UK? no they do not get any fire. You have gay as sirens and lame ass trucks. You do not work there so this should not offend u
Ther was units from all over the world that came and helped for a few days!!! You mean you didnt see them or you werent there, cause i was there for fucking weeks and i met and thanked as many as i could
FDNY guys makes fun of you!!!! We all do, you guys are silly! go deliver a pizza in that fire truck of yours!!! before you said FDNY was a joke??? dude We all know you are not a firefighter and you were never at 9-11. so stop lying
like fuck we do, we dont make fun outta nobody, i know this dude and hes worth ten of you fuckers, we went on an excahnge to london and they get loads, so why dont you kids who arent even firefighters fuck off and play somewhere else
Its a pizza delivery truck now, lmfao respect him LACITY68 he was at 9-11 fighting hardcore fire in new york with the boys at FDNY, lmfao!!!!! he was thanked by the major of new york he said. He was thanked for staying the fuck out of the way
sd25pn? who the fuck is sd25pn? dude this guy is stalking me! scary shit this internet lmfao! this guy is a poser wana be firefighter, he said he worked for charleston city f.d. and was at the fatal fire that claimed 9 lives. My cousins work there and said he never was on the job, or at any fucking fire. we called him out on it, and now he has a similar name to me, the same account lay out on my main page, and writes to me non stop! lmfao i have never been stalked before! kinda flattering lol
My favorite part of this video was watching all this guys post comments like if they could have done a better job.When in fact they cant even turn a oven fire in their houses. Run away momma!
dude u said you were a solider? you said you were in the fire department your whole life! you living in a big fat lie! you said you were a druggie and alcoholic? that makes sense! we caught you in a lie once again lmfao u are a drugged up fat ass, u were not even in the service were u? let me guess you were a navy seal, right? or no a Army Ranger? or secret service.
The other thing about the roof ladder is that I would never jeopardize my brothers safety for a roof ladder if we need to get off a roof quick I'm sure as hell not gonna risk dropping that ladder on my brother who im there to protect. But sorry for upsetting you LACITY68. the east coast is a lot different i guess
are you kiddin me eltedo804 from cabin john park volunteer f.d.? that doesn't even sound real. YouTubed your F.D., wow what experience. do you even have a high rise? hold your sarcastic comments and take a look at where your coming from.
size up was not shown on this video. This was the only spot for the a/o. The powerline is a low voltage phone or cable line, Don't be an l.a.county pussy. we did what we needed to do to get the job done. I can understand you not taking risks when your not getting paid to have fun volunteer boy. Same goes for you conFAGman...
If they put half that number of firefighters on the roof into the structure with hoselines they would have put the bloody thing out before the roof collapsed
Surely these guys are profesionals! throwing ladders, handling lines, getting caught, they are some kind of a toy fire service! and yes it seems LAFD do cuck, especailly if you watch this video
255 Fallen Firefighters since 1886.Don't tell me this Fire Department sucks buddy!
You guys watch a video that is 2 minutes long and thats your opinion.About 5 months ago Brent Lovrien lost his life.He saved his fellow Firefighter and a 12 year old girl before dying.I doubt that sucks.
the LAFD does not suck. salemfire24 were you there? i just came out of the lafd tower and i can tell you its not f***** up. and to say the lafd doesnt go to fires is just ignorant since i have been on we have had numerous major emergency fires. one thing thing you obviously didnt learn in your academy (that is if you are even a firefighter) is that we are all a brotherhood. im only a boot and i at least know that. dont talk s*** about something you know nothing about.
these guys suck, your not suppose to put ladders under power lines but lafd would not know those guys could not put out a fire if they stood around and pissed on it. thats what good the academy is not good at all. they come in and they think they know everything and they never been to any fires. thats what fucked up the fire department is the academy.
My favorite part is where the second firefighter from the top takes the roof ladder/escape route away from the firefighter on the roof. What's more important? A $500 ladder or your partners life. Thankfully the FF was able to make the leap of faith over the parapet onto the aerial.
does any fire ever go perfect volunteer boy? let me answer that for you since smokey log cabin johnny rescue on the weekends F.D. lacks structure experience...NO. pretty easy to arm-chair quarterback a video. once again, take a look at where your coming from before you critique.
I agree that no fire goes perfectly, but I admit, I didnt know the circumstances behind the ladder placement, but when we run high-rises (which we do) we take a lot of that into account. and there is absolutely no reason to hate on volunteers. I dont know what your system is, but where we are you go through all the same classes as the career folk and are just as qualified to be on a fire ground. sorry I upset you, I just thought it was something that would be mentioned.
When I was a teenager, I lived in a very tiny town, with about 100 people, no services and only one paved road. When there was a fire, someone rang the bell and everyone grabbed shovels and buckets and came running. Our only 'fire truck' was a pickup truck with a water tank on the back. Fire prevention and quick response while fires were still small was very important because if there was a major fire, such as a structure, the nearest "real" fire department was an hour away!
Ok the Volly bashing was unnecassary and in poor taste. Same goes for the career side. I myself am a vol. fireman, but after college I am going to test to become a paid fireman. I am going to stay a vol. after I get hired, because I'm not going to forget where I came from. Then the volly's who think there better because they "do it for free." Come on now, most vol. fireman aspire to be paid fireman. Infact, most people I know who say that are the ones that couldn't pass the tests or get hired.
Oh yeah, I forgot,the guys that throw a department name out in there post, thats just stupid. Do you actually think anyone believes you? I know I don't.
As for you, no one on here said anything about being better for being a volunteer either, so stop putting words in mouths. And I completely disagree about the volunteers all wanting to be paid: most I know have successful jobs but enjoy the satisfaction of doing something so fulfilling as well.
the guys on my dept. for the most part just want to give back to the community. There are a few of us that aspire to the career side of things - but for the most part. We do what we do - because if we don't. . . then who will?
You should realize that in a great many towns and rural areas in this country volunteer fire firefighters are all there is and it has nothing to do with not being able to pass a test or get hired on. They are all there is because there are hundreds and maybe thousands of little towns and suberbs that people live in but don't have the money to support a paid firehouse. It's okay, you're young so you get some leeway for being ignorant.
I noticed that nobody responded to the fact that by volunteers doing the job for nothing that you take away paying jobs from guys just like yourselves. I'm not talking about farmer judd in shit kick America, I'm talking to the volunteers in departments that do a considerable amount of runs. You guys are the scabs. That's all I have to say.
Departments that run on career and voulenteer/paid on call side of things are better able to afford training and equipment (read: can be more safe) because there are people willing to do it for less money - or just because it is the right thing to do.
We are all brothers and sisters in this industry. We have to look out for one another - we can't look at anyone as a "scab" - it'll lead to disaster. That "scab" might very well pull you out of a blaze one day!
most career ff's start out as a volunteer to see if they like it, then they move on to take exams. Damn, Ltmoty i guess volunteers have no place in this world just because we dont get a paycheck to do the same exact thing as you do.
Yeah sounds good you going to pay 90% raise in taxes to cover that? sounds good at the start but when your full time 6 or 7 crew in a small city gets in trouble they sure don't even bat an eye to call for help of others.
Heck lets have a crew on stand by getting paid for nothing cause if the first 12 get into it bad and help we sure wouldnt want to call for a mutual aid. Must be nice to have money to blow..
Oh, and by the way, most paid firemen are extremely passionate, so much so that they set out to attain their dream job. Some even up and move, like myself, to a city where the job is present. The true fact of the matter is that most vollies can't pass the entrance exam so they have to settle for the "club".
Yeah, the members of the "club" have more balls than you'll ever have. You were just talking shit about how safety isn't a priority to you and then you have the audacity to slam volunteers, who in my experience are as good as anything on a paid staff. Dude, this job for you is really about being the fucking hero isn't it?
Hey buddy just wanted you to know that just about every career firefighter I know started as a volly(including me). And the fact of the matter is that it doesnt matter because in the long run we are all fire fighters. Where i come from vollys are in charge of most of the state because of the lack of large citys. But in my book a volly is more couragous because he works his regular job ( around here its farming) and then goes and saves assholes like you when hes called to the job!!
Your right. If my house was on fire and my child was trapped in her room I sure would want to rely on volunteers who may or not be around over paid professionals. The truth is that volunteer departments are taxpayer funded clubs and should be disbanned and replaced with paid county departments. This is not the 1800's and the need is there but is being stopped by scabs.
And another thing.... that idea is impossible due to the lack of people that would be able to work there. most of the vollys at my station are also city firefighters (including me) and they are also working a side job with that. THAT IS 3 JOBS!!! Your lazy ass obviously does not work very hard because your just sittin at you computer putting down people that have way more balls then you'll ever have you fucking shit!!
Im saying that its a dangerous "PRO"fession and sometimes you have to do unsafe things to acheive an end. As far as volunteers go , I'm a union firefighter and I consider you and the others like you, scabs. What if we volunteered teachers ,electricians,steelworkers or plumbers? I think some heads would be broken on the jobsite but it's perfectly acceptable to do our job for nothing.
Wow, screw you. I'm a professional with an extensive background in volunteering, and I'll take my volunteers over your "pros" anyday. For you guys, firefighting's a job, for volunteers, its a goddam passion. Our department wouldn't survive without the volunteers. You shold seriously be ashamed for both praising unsafe practices and disrespecting the volunteers. Quit trying to be damn hero.
Sometimes short cuts are taken at fires but I gotta love these comments that are probably submitted by volunteers who respond to 200 or less fire calls a year and 2 or 3 structure fires at best. This is what goes on everyday and sometimes it's not done like your saftey officer has taught you in the smokehouse on Saturday while burning hay. This is what seperates the men from the frauds who walk around with the " I tread where devils reign" tee shirt.
Are you saying that by not following safety procedures you're a real hero as opposed to those who do? And what's with the diss on volunteers? Not cool dude, especially when taking the safety measures doesn't take any more time to do than to do it half-assed.
And while that may have been a Cable/Phone line it doesn't matter. If you dont know, dont touch, that caould have easily been a live service drop for a neraby building.
Yo Boss...I think they were confident that single line was telcomm and not power... It's pretty standard for LA City...on the flip side, we did have a Capt go down w/critical burns after coming in contact with high voltage in a similar situation, albeit in the middle of the night...his hands were fried and I believe he pensioned off after that (he had 28 years on at the time).
Not too mention poor areial ladder placement, at what point is ut ok to cross under a potentialy live power line to access a roof, plus have it get stuck on your pack, come on people RISK VS BENEFIT, what if that wire was live and ended up on that ladder. I think we forget what he over all goal is. EVERY ONE GOES HOME! Poor firemanship and firegound safety on their part. Their actions dont even meet NFPA safety and health standards.
AMEN!!!!!!!! There were so many things that bothered me about that video its not funny. AND WE WONDER WHY WE KILL 100+ FF'S EVERY YEAR????????????????
Lack of airpacks at the end, tangled hose lines, unsafe ladder ops, dropping equipment off a roof, etc. What an embarassment to the fire service. Any of these guys still alive? Have they killed or injured any of their brothers? What bad judgement and safety practices. I bet CAOSHA would have a field day with this video.
im not trying to argue but as they were doing the ventilation something went wrong..i dont remember but when he dropped the ladder there was still a guy there and they dont have the time to fix evrything..like chief says "rather see you alive instead of you dying because of the equipment"!!
Fire 101.. If there are wires, they must be HOT. unless confirmed. last smoke class I went to said building is naturally vented due to fire spread (judging by the video only). why on the roof? must of forgot a tool! i hate dear chief letters
A bit of trivia...this call actually came out as an AUTO FIRE! I work right by 9's and was at 4th-Central when the call came out and right away you could see it was no auto fire!
is that an electrical wire these ff are climbing under!?

@azngeckolord No doubt what you say is true. Ventilation in conjunction with a coordinated fire attack is key.
All of those negatives you mentioned are either eliminated or reduced with truck company work.
Truck work mostly involves NO WATER so i'd have to give a slight danger advantage to the truckies.

It is so funny to me when some guy gets on here and criticizes a fire video that was not even present! Where do you work? have you ever been to a fire like this one? These guys get these pretty often, but this fire got out of control fast and they got off the roof! No one died or got hurt, so they did their job just fine. Arm chair quarterbacks are so funny to me. I do not even work for LAFD and i think it is lame to talk shit when you have not the slightest idea what u are talking about.

FightThe4Strokes 2 years ago
I know for a fact you're department would have killed 3 or 4 guys if you were at this fire. I have seen hick department on these and they stick 100 hoses in windows and do not even do truck operations. They wait for the fire to vent itself out the roof and put a snorkel up and surround and drown, huh? Then all high five each other, go back to the station and get called back for a re-kindle 8 hours later. LAFD is the shit and they do a good job! LA County is better, but that is hear nor there!

My favorite part is where the second firefighter from the top takes the roof ladder/escape route away from the firefighter on the roof. What's more important? A $500 ladder or your partners life. Thankfully the FF was able to make the leap of faith over the parapet onto the aerial.

does any fire ever go perfect volunteer boy? let me answer that for you since smokey log cabin johnny rescue on the weekends F.D. lacks structure experience...NO. pretty easy to arm-chair quarterback a video. once again, take a look at where your coming from before you critique.
LACITY68 3 years ago
I agree that no fire goes perfectly, but I admit, I didnt know the circumstances behind the ladder placement, but when we run high-rises (which we do) we take a lot of that into account. and there is absolutely no reason to hate on volunteers. I dont know what your system is, but where we are you go through all the same classes as the career folk and are just as qualified to be on a fire ground. sorry I upset you, I just thought it was something that would be mentioned.
eltedo804 3 years ago
When I was a teenager, I lived in a very tiny town, with about 100 people, no services and only one paved road. When there was a fire, someone rang the bell and everyone grabbed shovels and buckets and came running. Our only 'fire truck' was a pickup truck with a water tank on the back. Fire prevention and quick response while fires were still small was very important because if there was a major fire, such as a structure, the nearest "real" fire department was an hour away!

Ok the Volly bashing was unnecassary and in poor taste. Same goes for the career side. I myself am a vol. fireman, but after college I am going to test to become a paid fireman. I am going to stay a vol. after I get hired, because I'm not going to forget where I came from. Then the volly's who think there better because they "do it for free." Come on now, most vol. fireman aspire to be paid fireman. Infact, most people I know who say that are the ones that couldn't pass the tests or get hired.

As for you, no one on here said anything about being better for being a volunteer either, so stop putting words in mouths. And I completely disagree about the volunteers all wanting to be paid: most I know have successful jobs but enjoy the satisfaction of doing something so fulfilling as well.

ewenlillard 3 years ago
You should realize that in a great many towns and rural areas in this country volunteer fire firefighters are all there is and it has nothing to do with not being able to pass a test or get hired on. They are all there is because there are hundreds and maybe thousands of little towns and suberbs that people live in but don't have the money to support a paid firehouse. It's okay, you're young so you get some leeway for being ignorant.
anooseholay 3 years ago
I noticed that nobody responded to the fact that by volunteers doing the job for nothing that you take away paying jobs from guys just like yourselves. I'm not talking about farmer judd in shit kick America, I'm talking to the volunteers in departments that do a considerable amount of runs. You guys are the scabs. That's all I have to say.
Ltmoty 3 years ago
Nobody's taking anyone's job because a lot of communities can't afford paid guys anyway! Are you listening at all?
Sarifan 3 years ago
Departments that run on career and voulenteer/paid on call side of things are better able to afford training and equipment (read: can be more safe) because there are people willing to do it for less money - or just because it is the right thing to do.
We are all brothers and sisters in this industry. We have to look out for one another - we can't look at anyone as a "scab" - it'll lead to disaster. That "scab" might very well pull you out of a blaze one day!

bombero89 3 years ago
Yeah sounds good you going to pay 90% raise in taxes to cover that? sounds good at the start but when your full time 6 or 7 crew in a small city gets in trouble they sure don't even bat an eye to call for help of others.
Heck lets have a crew on stand by getting paid for nothing cause if the first 12 get into it bad and help we sure wouldnt want to call for a mutual aid. Must be nice to have money to blow..
valet5242 3 years ago 2
Oh, and by the way, most paid firemen are extremely passionate, so much so that they set out to attain their dream job. Some even up and move, like myself, to a city where the job is present. The true fact of the matter is that most vollies can't pass the entrance exam so they have to settle for the "club".
Ltmoty 3 years ago
Yeah, the members of the "club" have more balls than you'll ever have. You were just talking shit about how safety isn't a priority to you and then you have the audacity to slam volunteers, who in my experience are as good as anything on a paid staff. Dude, this job for you is really about being the fucking hero isn't it?
Sarifan 3 years ago 2
Hey buddy just wanted you to know that just about every career firefighter I know started as a volly(including me). And the fact of the matter is that it doesnt matter because in the long run we are all fire fighters. Where i come from vollys are in charge of most of the state because of the lack of large citys. But in my book a volly is more couragous because he works his regular job ( around here its farming) and then goes and saves assholes like you when hes called to the job!!
ncfirefighter910 3 years ago
Your right. If my house was on fire and my child was trapped in her room I sure would want to rely on volunteers who may or not be around over paid professionals. The truth is that volunteer departments are taxpayer funded clubs and should be disbanned and replaced with paid county departments. This is not the 1800's and the need is there but is being stopped by scabs.
Ltmoty 3 years ago
And another thing.... that idea is impossible due to the lack of people that would be able to work there. most of the vollys at my station are also city firefighters (including me) and they are also working a side job with that. THAT IS 3 JOBS!!! Your lazy ass obviously does not work very hard because your just sittin at you computer putting down people that have way more balls then you'll ever have you fucking shit!!
ncfirefighter910 3 years ago
Im saying that its a dangerous "PRO"fession and sometimes you have to do unsafe things to acheive an end. As far as volunteers go , I'm a union firefighter and I consider you and the others like you, scabs. What if we volunteered teachers ,electricians,steelworkers or plumbers? I think some heads would be broken on the jobsite but it's perfectly acceptable to do our job for nothing.
Ltmoty 3 years ago
Wow, screw you. I'm a professional with an extensive background in volunteering, and I'll take my volunteers over your "pros" anyday. For you guys, firefighting's a job, for volunteers, its a goddam passion. Our department wouldn't survive without the volunteers. You shold seriously be ashamed for both praising unsafe practices and disrespecting the volunteers. Quit trying to be damn hero.
Sarifan 3 years ago
Sometimes short cuts are taken at fires but I gotta love these comments that are probably submitted by volunteers who respond to 200 or less fire calls a year and 2 or 3 structure fires at best. This is what goes on everyday and sometimes it's not done like your saftey officer has taught you in the smokehouse on Saturday while burning hay. This is what seperates the men from the frauds who walk around with the " I tread where devils reign" tee shirt.

Are you saying that by not following safety procedures you're a real hero as opposed to those who do? And what's with the diss on volunteers? Not cool dude, especially when taking the safety measures doesn't take any more time to do than to do it half-assed.

Yo Boss...I think they were confident that single line was telcomm and not power... It's pretty standard for LA City...on the flip side, we did have a Capt go down w/critical burns after coming in contact with high voltage in a similar situation, albeit in the middle of the night...his hands were fried and I believe he pensioned off after that (he had 28 years on at the time).

Not too mention poor areial ladder placement, at what point is ut ok to cross under a potentialy live power line to access a roof, plus have it get stuck on your pack, come on people RISK VS BENEFIT, what if that wire was live and ended up on that ladder.
