Huge Fire in Downtown Los Angeles Destroys Storage Area

[Mikyz12]

Why is a two year "boot" trying to teach the rookie about "fully open"? Lots of movement, but action that only required half the excitement.  Relax guys and take a few seconds to have a plan. Five seconds of thinking, saves about ten minutes of effort. Nice fire though.

wow that's a big fire

[AlessandraRulez]

burn motherfucker burn

[Orangematz]

why are you so close to the fire? Get away!

[txfirefighter]

big fire = big water guys...wrong handlines to pull on this one...2 1/2 would be proper choice..not 1 3/4

[LAFDExplorer58]

the hose they are using is a 1 a/2" line... 2 1/2" line would be better

[LACITY68]

there are 2 lines involved here, the first one the boot is handling is the 1 3/4" notice the yellow on the nozzle. The second line is an 1 1/2". I'll take two attack lines totaling 325 gpm with better mobility than one line, 2 1/2" at 325 gpm. LAcity13 is right, It really isn't a big fire. The title is misleading.

[rockinfireman95]

i agree 100% with you

[LAcityFD13]

its really not that big of a fire

[CynthiaLovesYouBuddy]

what i dont get it?

[GoLAcityFD]

what dont you get?

[CynthiaLovesYouBuddy]

the 2 and 1-2 thing

its confusing

[GoLAcityFD]

umno its not? its the hose sizes 2 1/2 inch hose and 1 1/2 inch hose on a LA city Engine theres a 1 3/4 hose line for structure fires its yellow and theres a 1 1/2 hose for usually auto fires etc its white with black/grey theres the 1 inch hose line for brush fires its white and theres the 2 1/2 for structure fires like commercial fires theres the high rise hose pack for high rise buildings to connect to standpipes etc thats dark grey and theres the 4 inch supply hose line thats to the hydrant

[GoLAcityFD]

and theres the hydraulics gpms psi's etc etc but i dont want to get you more confused n lost

[GoLAcityFD]

no why would you get a 2 1/2? this is a 1 1/2- 1/3/4 line to a attack its a shed not a structure well house fire nor commercial or industry building

[butteroll]

why are only some guys wearing scba? they should all be wearing them..especially the guys with lines..

[LAcityFD13]
