On August 13th, 2007, the Cascade Complex wildfires - in Central Idaho - overran a fire camp where several hundred firefighters and support personnel were camped. The fire's arrival was not a surprise, the fire that threatened the camp had been burning with similar intensity in similar fuel types for over 2 weeks before this incident occurred.

  • @we4saken2b2gether in case this hasn't been answered yet, I was there & we were called back to fire camp from other parts of the complex and were watching for spot fires... that's why we were "just standing around"

  • amazing footage, but what the hell is everyone doing just sitting around?!!! you call yourselves firefighters?

  • Reports claim that the fire was caused by a burst of hot air from Howard Stern's anus.

  • the fire fighter ppl wasnt gne do nun to put it out lik wtf day need to get day ass fired up

  • Most of the Yellow Jackets were contractors, Such as supply/cooking meals etc. However, as my self and other pilots that were there moved our aircraft just prior to this. Saw it coming. I believe the person in charge was instantly relieved of his duties.
