Awsome video I used to be a vol. firefighter it was a childhood dream come true wouldent of stoped but, Life throws curve balls and I had no choice hope to re join very soon..Reynoldsburg Ohio over and out
Great video... But where are the 80% of EMS Calls??? I know not that exciting!!! I love railing on the siren and horn - parting the traffic. I give them as much cowbell as I can.... Glad to be part of the team!!!
@SuperPitbullMan a backdraft is when the oxygen supply is cut off from a fire and it burns down until it starts smoldering. Then the fire finds a new oxygen source (a window breaks, or someone opens a door), and the fire blows up. That's the basic concept. There are other thermal science aspects of it, but that's the gist.
Wanna loose all that extra weight? Bcome a frefighter. I've been doing the firefighter training course for almost two weeks thats 11 days that I went down there, 10 hours per day, and Ive lost 19 fucking pounds. I was at 195 now I am at 186. And thats eating even more that usual lol. Greetings to firefighters worldwide from Banfield, Argentina.
i love it im enrolled in a vocational school as a senior in a firefighter/ EMT class and i dont think there could be a better career in the world whether volunteer or paid
I'm only an explorer right now, but I can't wait to do this! I went to the burn building for the first time a couple of weeks ago and it was the best thing ever!

I've always wanted to be a firefighter, but since I'm not an American citizen yet, i am not qualified to be one. That's why I've decided to enlist in the military to be a citizen way faster than a civilian.
i love bein a female vol. firefighter its the best job in the world even if i dont get paid i love helpin ppl i was aved by a firefighter hwen i was 5 i was traped in my room with a fire blazing and ever since then its all i wanted to be was a firefighter
@queenbit01 lol nvm i viewed your profile. after i asked about the comment you posted reminded me of a local girl that busted her ass to become one of the best.
The only big difference between full time and volunteer is call volume. If there werent so many call all depts would be volunteer. My house runs 10-15 calls a shift, Theres no way to make sure you have adequate volunteers for all the calls. Thats why we get paid, not because we refuse to do it if we don't make money.
Being a firefighter is the best job in the entire world! You cant get this big of a family anywhere else! We are always there for each other, no matter where we are from! Im proud to say I LOVE MY BROTHERS/SISTERS! BrotherHood For Life!
Anyone that fights fire, myself included, that says they do it for saving lives and all that jazz is full of shit, you guys know we do it for the rush LOL!
@Masonblog be in very good shape and get ready for some tough training. and study your books hard, theres alot more to firefighting than u would think
you should probably take an EMS course, since now most firefighters are Paramedics. lots of studying. but in the end, it pays off, hell of a rush. Good Luck
thank you for all ya'll do.. my fiance is a firefighter and i'm so proud of him and his job.. i get excited when i see a fire truck running code but i pray for them at the same time.. i don't think i could ever say thank you enough for keeping our towns and homes safe from fires and rescuing ppl from wrecks :) thank you :)
@ndemt911 i came from Chicago to be a volunteer in Tennessee! I wouldn't say i wouldn't go back but it would take a look to make me. do miss my fighting irish brothers though!
@ndemt911 I believe the statistic is 80% of firefighters are volunteer. Been a Volunteer Firefighter for almost 6 years now and I love every bit of it. We risk our lives for free! God Bless My Brothers and Sisters in the Fire Service......We Run In While Everyone Else Is Running Out!!!
@theone2225 yea i think it is like there are 900,000 fire fighters in the US and 600,000 are volunteers while the rest are paid and i like your comment at the end (First in Last Out) is my stations saying
@theone2225 I do like your comment and im not trying to start a fight but i believe that anyone who is a firefighter (paid or not paid) is a hero. I don't think of a fire fighter any less even if they are paid because they risk losing everything as well as volunteers. Stay Safe!
good stuff i love it. It gets me so pumped when im at the station. Firefighting is my life and i wouldnt give it for the world. I dont know what i would do without this job.
I've been a Volunteer FF for Seven years, and I love it. I've been involved in Criminal Justice Field since I was 18, almost 10 years. I will say that I've expierence "The Brotherhood" stronger in the Fire Service then in Law Enforcement...
I know alot of these guys are saying FLASHOVER but in fact it is backdraft, this occurs when heat and heavy smoke and unburned fuel particles accumulate in a compartment or confined space depleting available air, when oxygen is reintroduced to the mix (opening a door or window) it completes the fire triangle which causes rapid combustion of said heat, heavy smoke, and unburned fuel particles. Fire Fighter/Investigator Newton County, Texas number 6914 great video though!!
firefighter321123, At the 1min mark of the video that is called a flashover. Just about a firefighters worst nightmare. Look close at the video and you can see that everyone is pulled back with only one hose putting cooling water into the structure. They were expecting it to flash. First sign that a flashover is coming is thick heavy black smoke essentially boiling from every opening in the structure. Do a search at wikipedia for more detailed information.
I believe the military, police officers, and fire fighters should be the highest paid jobs in America because they risk their life everyday for someone else. Oh and i cant forget about the paramedics and doctors which most doctors are paid good
That explosion at 1:00 looks like something BLEVE'd* inside. There's an initial blast wave, pushing the fire out the openings (container rupture), then moments later a second explosion and rapid combustion that ripples through the smoke (released vapours hitting the UEL when the initial shock wave recedes and draws in sufficient oxygen). I rather face a box of live ammunition than a box of rattle cans.
here in CA for the past few months i have noticed the public turning against firefighters. many police and firefighters are being laid off. some of the remarks in support of measure H in Stockton is just plane disgusting. but as history shows, it takes a major disasters for the public to realize that they do need firefighters. in CA that disaster will probably be an earth quake. its just too bad that its gonna cost so many more lives then it should.
@docman789 I don't believe it's a backdraft due to the fire that is already present. I'm thinking if it's anything other that the gas line that another room, behind the fire we see, flashed, or if it was an arson, there is a possiblity of a second starter or device the aronist could have planted.
@Callmemrbest i dont think it was a backdraft cause that only occurs in the final stages of the fires life when the oxygen is depleted...this fire had plenty of oxygen by the self vent it did...it is a poss flash over thou
The explosion you saw was indeed a backdraft. No gas line inside that building would have been large enough to level the building as seen in the original video. It was not a flashover because it is impossible in a brick building as brick does not combust and also flashovers do not create that type of force, as backdrafts do. Also as you can see most of the flames come out, retreat, then the whole place goes down. The full video is on flashovertv under backdraft levels 2 story building.
@firefighter321123 It could very well be a ruptured gas line, but smoke is an unburned product of combustion and at the right temp it will ignite and if the smoke is dense enough it then it will explode, such as what happened at 1:00
@firefighter321123 :Was a Flashover , Very old structure, in Paris, TX , I saw it on discovery channel, maybe with theses informations you'll be able to find a complete video about it on the net.
@firefighter321123 it wasnt a flashover or anything like that. The building fully involed had a top floor collapse that fell on to the lower floor causing them to collapse as well which blew out the walls and contents inside this fire occured in paris,tx acouple of years back.
@firefighter321123 complete structural collapse starting with the top floor. blewout the walls and the contents of the building into the street. Fire occured in paris,tx acouple of years ago.

@firefghter19 i thought it could be a big backdraft but a ruptured gas line does make more sense.

@firefghter19 its could also be the rear of the structure collapsed? Thats the way it looks to me.

@docman789 I don't believe it's a backdraft due to the fire that is already present. I'm thinking if it's anything other that the gas line that another room, behind the fire we see, flashed, or if it was an arson, there is a possiblity of a second starter or device the aronist could have planted.

@firefighter321123 Either that or could have been a back draft or a flash over

@Callmemrbest i dont think it was a backdraft cause that only occurs in the final stages of the fires life when the oxygen is depleted...this fire had plenty of oxygen by the self vent it did...it is a poss flash over thou

The explosion you saw was indeed a backdraft. No gas line inside that building would have been large enough to level the building as seen in the original video. It was not a flashover because it is impossible in a brick building as brick does not combust and also flashovers do not create that type of force, as backdrafts do. Also as you can see most of the flames come out, retreat, then the whole place goes down. The full video is on flashovertv under backdraft levels 2 story building.

Flashover baby!
Look it up on Youtube, it's hot smoke lighting up!
Something any firefighter do not want to get caught into.

Looks like BLEVE or smoke explosion

@firefighter321123 It could very well be a ruptured gas line, but smoke is an unburned product of combustion and at the right temp it will ignite and if the smoke is dense enough it then it will explode, such as what happened at 1:00

@firefighter321123 it wasnt a flashover or anything like that. The building fully involed had a top floor collapse that fell on to the lower floor causing them to collapse as well which blew out the walls and contents inside this fire occured in paris,tx acouple of years back.
