God damn it. It drives me nuts to see people letting their SCBA mouthpiece just flying around, hitting the hydrant, hitting the tools their carrying, getting dirty. Can everyone just put it back in the waist strap....it takes 1 second...literally. Thank you.

he cud of water hammered the engine, n its better to let the hydrant flow for like 3 seconds that way no build up will go into the engine pump

@ProudVolunteer19 Obviously having class is something you do not care about. Watch your horrible language. Children watch these videos. What kind of example are you setting.

The way I was trained we would flush the hydrant before laying out all that hose just to be sure it worked then we'd hook up to it. Then again the department that trained me had different instructors teaching different ways of doing the same thing then they wondered why their cadets couln't get it together

@djjerc probably not. depending on the capacity of the engine they probably already had at least a 5 minute window to add water to the tank to the engine. Sorry you have a shitty engine. talk to your city about getting you a new one.

@ProudVolunteer19 and those are actually a little too fragile too.......

good call

Before you say "Why didn't he flush it", look at the road... There is water there so they must have been flushing it and this was a film of their second or more try with the hydrant.

to slow everybody died in the fire
