FDNY at its best

[darktide370]

The lady at 2:00 gave that look..she wants the cock.

[Unionfirecompany2fan]

Ahh, good old Tower Ladder 21 it's motto is "THE PRIDE OF HELLS KITCHEN"

[3034893118]

I cant believe this FDNY is trying to get to the call and NYPD is just sitting there and not even helping the fire company get through the intersection or get where they are going. This is shocking to see NYPD not helping at all. At 1:45 mark u have this one engine that can not cross the intersection because there is no room at all instead its Pretty embarrassing to see that the Engine crew arriving on scene has to turn right facing the wrong way

[CarlosBcn1989]

What happened? A burned chiken?

[aal49]

Neat views of the bus railings!

[swissgi]

0:37 do u think your cam is x-ray !? lol nice vid tho !

[TheCorbuzier]

too much firetrucks !! ...don't they have hydrants ??!?!!

[DanFrederiksen]

if the cars weren't all so wastefully big then NYC might not be such a hell hole because traffic could flow

[LavyBlack]

I plan to visit Belgium one day!

[wimpie25]

@LavyBlack

Great idea, be sure to check the video's I made of my country! :)

I always wanted to visit the US so I've been there in 2008 and thus this video and some others I've never uploaded.

[GlennVanBogaert]

@wimpie25 Nice, which places I definitely need to visit when I hit NYC one day?

[wimpie25]

@GlennVanBogaert

Well I suggest to see as much of the city outside itself, especially when you're going for only a few days. Most people do the cliché stuff like the Empire State Building, Madame Tussaud's, Macy's and other "museum's" etc. If you do those, as interesting as they are, you will spend alot of time queueing inside. If you buy a week-pass for one of the hop-on-hop-off bus services, you'll get to see so much more.

[NHcrownvic]

@LavyBlack and have a waffle ! lmao

[Fuxser]

so many firetrucks ?? i didn't see somke or fire...

[FevaFordaFlava]

@Fuxser In a public building if a fire alarm is pulled or a smoke detector goes off the fire department must respond. They have no idea if there is a real fire, or if someone just pulled it for a good laugh. Either way the team must come out, and since it is a large building in NY they have more trucks come out to the scene.

[MrRubendeRuiter]

Belgium sucks!!

HOLLAND is cool!!

[wimpie25]

@MrRubendeRuiter

Jep, verlaag jezelf maar tot het niveau van je andere landgenoten die hier op Youtube niets liever doen dan België onterecht veroordelen op zaken dat het allemaal niet is.

De cijfers liegen er niet om dat België eigenlijk de betere leerling van de klas is maar dat deert blijkbaar niet.

[Yeltuh888]

wimpie25

Ik heb voor u zojuist op het duimpje geklikt..

[Mvz91]

@wimpie25 Laat m toch praten. Die 12 jarige heeft waarschijnlijk niks anders te doen als andere mensen kleineren zodat ie zichzelf beter vind. Super mooie video heb je gemaakt. Ik ben vorig jaar ook in NYC geweest en heb wel een paar brandweerwagens langs zien komen dus dit voelt een beetje alsof ik er weer ben. Bedankt daarvoor!

Groetjes van je bovenbuur

[Niel8181]

@MrRubendeRuiter Maar kaaskopje toch :p

[Coasterrider210]

i would love to visit belgium

[343HFD]

That's fun when your in lots of heavy traffic and we all just stop and get out and start walking and leave the engine. People get pissed LOL but we get there faster, unless you want to just plow through everyone :D

[Firefighter1271]

if u think this is FDNY at its best u havent seen shit

[SCFD811]

needza grinder

[NCOProductions]

Wow. Wouldnt it be cool, touring NYC then hey! FIRE! Look the NYPD! AWESOME!

[fdnylover]

fdny is always at its best XD

[callofktulu282]

Belgium...what a shit box country...

[wimpie25]

Leave it to the people who've actually been there to judge how it's like.

I live there and I love the country that is known as Belgium, because it has given the world so much but it hasn't changed by that at all.

[SaLTLiFe4TL]

dont listen to him, its kids like that...that give us Americans a bad name, I have always wanted to go to Belgium, alot of culture and history you all got.

[flames41418]

i saw engine 65 when i went to new york :) check out my video

[mbc2915]

damm tour bus

[xxYouTub3Policexx]

RadioReporter01, when is the FBI supposed to come get me for posting on Youtube? You said you called them. HAHA!

[Unit430]

01:00 Asking where your from is usually a signal that you're about to get shot by a gang banger in L.A.

[wimpie25]

Luckely no-one knows Belgium.

[Wouter112]

Hahaha

[tubesteakdynamo]

@Unit430 < I was thinking that same thing about up here...San Francisco.

[bitchum]

a response time of less than 2 min. in the busiest city in america...god bless the fdny

[Noone0611]

how do you know the response time is less than two minuts? not that I don't believe you, I'm just wondering.

[RadioReporter01]

That's right

[pal2011]

@bitchum considering how small the area is for each fire station it's really NOT that good....

[FevaFordaFlava]

@pal2011 hey dont hate on them

[NYsentinel]

Strength and Honor

[83survivor]

Anybody recalls the $3.00 dollar movie theater around that area back in the 90s before it converted to a play theatre?

[rmcnyc]

You mean the one on 50th, right off 8 Avenue?

[83survivor]

Yep. It was the only movie theater that showed movies three months late and only cost three bucks. It is no longer there, but it was fun, though.

[83survivor]

I know exactly where that is.

[wimpie25]

It's never hard to know where you are in Manhattan.

[82abnoff]

Those young punks will become??? We try, but we always fail.

[51ENGINE51]

Is the FDNY switching from rotators to LEDS? And also do they work 24 24's or 48 48's? thanks

[jd5424]

they are slowly switching to LEDs. there is gonna be like 70 something new engines with LEDS and on a new seagrave chassie

[fireguye4]

24s/15s and straight tours. either 9x6 or 6x9

[psp310]

dont forget the 2 to 3 days off after that

[DdecC15]

Just gotta love how people get out of the way to a huge fire engine with blasting horn and siren. Its like people think the world revolves around them and "...too bad if someone is trapped inside that burning building- I want to be in that lane an not even a fire truck is going to stop me!"

[Taylorhoge]

Its called traffic and lights dumbass

[firefighteravfd]

yea i kno its terrible people are like that

[JohnR177]

After you graduate from the Academy is it likely that you get to choose the station, if not area, you want to be stationed at?

Because I think I want to be somewhere in Downtown Manhattan!

[TwistedJr69th]

You really have no say unless you know someone high up in the FDNY. I'm sorry to break it to you but its all about who you know when it comes to jobs like the FDNY and NYPD. You'll get put wherever they need you. Manhattan, especially Midtown and Lower don't need much help. Good chance you'll end up in Brooklyn or Bronx.

[JohnR177]

O really? Wow, thanks for letting me know. Sorry for false information everyone. Thanks twisted. Brooklyn or Bronx are busy with fires though correct?

[TwistedJr69th]

Sure thing. That is how it is in the NYPD and I'm sure the FDNY too. As a new guy you'll just get put wherever they need you. After you've been working for a while you can have more say in where you would like to go.

[moustafa69]

What is the training lenght and requirements for FDNY, and do u have to be american??

[playswithboobs]

Very nice vid thanks for sharing!

[Zildjian285]

I love it how the trucks have American flags on them, it shows a huge sense of pride - something that the UK has lost recently.

[robotracking]

@Zildjian285 ...............As our flags, we only see to up hold the Royals rights, that’s why we don't go over the top like the US. I think the US really does go over the top on their flag. There's pride and then there’s Boasting.

[AlvinHDavernport]

@robotracking Well, that's obviously your very respectable opinion, but I think you're stretching the definition of "over the top" a bit. I haven't seen anyone complain about seeing "too many flags" anywhere in the US in my life.

[wimpie25]

@AlvinHDavernport

Well in America no, but you aparently have no idea how the rest of the world thinks about that sort of "pride".

[AlvinHDavernport]

@wimpie25 No, I have a very good idea, I just don't see how that should change anything. What if there's people whose misconceptions of America makes them hate the fact that we Americans are very proud of our country? Nothing. I can't see why we should let other people tell us how many flags to wave. You're very proud of Belgium and Europe yourself, and I respect that. I wouldn't go around telling you that you shouldn't think too much of your country or continent :)

[corporaldibble]

@wimpie25 European fears of fascism are nonexistent here. We are not afraid to proudly display our flags. We do not fear tyrants coming to power. So it does not matter how the rest of the world views "that sort of pride". It's sad that patriotism is frowned upon in countries of Europe. Perhaps we are too patriotic, but that is infinitely better than not being patriotic enough.

[wimpie25]

@corporaldibble

I truly respect your opinion on this matter but it is funny that you bring back the reason why we don't like the excesive use of flags is due to facism.

We are not afraid of facism whatsoever, in fact the creation of the EU gave most inhabitants of European nations the pride for their own nation back. The Italians and other founding members for example have never been prouder than they are today, Western-Europeans lead the list.

But they show their pride when needed.

[xXLoneDroneXx1]

@robotracking That's the thing with America. We love to show our pride and patriotism, and there is now 'over the top' for some people.

[ks10308]

@Zildjian285 beleive it or not, since the fdny was hit the hardest during 9/11, they put the us flags a mini memorial. they usually didnt have the flags before 9/11

[731995]

german fire department and us fire department are the best

[wimpie25]

I love the belgian one because its very "american".

[MetalSanke]

Yoyu should see Chiles then. They use E-Ones with Qs!

[AshwinTheMan]

actually, dutch is way better than the german... recent there have been some tests, and the germans weren't so good at all..

[Badsellcut]

FDNY at it's best. Camerawork at it's worst..

[ManhattanSafe]

5 Stars

[Friss99]

stupid yankee drivers. Can't pass by slow when emergency vehicle is parked?

[wimpie25]

Lol, the situation isn't better in Belgium. Thats why most ambulances are equiped with 8 different sirens to make people move. Or atleast to get their attention.

[espada9]

Shut your pie hole Muslim sub human, stop trying to blow up a city that is far too advanced and sophisticated for your 7th century cave dwelling ideology.

[wimpie25]

Lol, does my account say that I'm a muslim?

[ladder06]

Nice video.
