  • @GirlsGutGutsTooFFEMT I see. now I know what can be used to put out a metal fire. thanks.

  • @aurora990 As far as I know a class D Fire exsunisher which has a poweder substance of some sort

  • @GirlsGutGutsTooFFEMT I had seen water sprayed to hot metal and it does explode. I was not sure if a metal fire can cause an explosion after water gets sprayed until now. what is used to put out a metal fire?

  • @aurora990 Yes 

  • @pennypacker90 I see. the audio said it was a dumpster for metal shavings. afterwards, it turned out to be magnesium not hot metal that caused a dumpster explosion.

  • maybe if the dumpster had magnesium it it, that reacts with water

  • does a metal fire cause an explosion when sprayed by water?

  • it was sad hearing all that over the pager

  • Sad.....Sad situation.

    Seemed to be a bit of lag in central`s response back to units on scene. Verifying the ambulances. I never heard central verify the request for hazmat.
