This video is being shown on the Los Angeles Times webpage as footage of the Jan. 2, 2012 Hollywood garage fire. Whoever posted this should sue the L. A. Times for stealing your footage without permission. The LA Times would surely sue you if you posted their stuff without permission. You have my condolences on this fire. I hope no one was hurt.

@wms72 That actually makes me laugh since there is snow all over. I did try to find it on their website but couldn't. I guess it's like when we had the protests going on in Madison, WI and the news showed footage of protesters with palm trees in the background.

it was parked against the garage, but pulled away.

@highcountrytimber

Lololol snow? Why not just use a glass of water while you're at it?

@highcountrytimber cars don't just explode.

@highcountrytimber Putting the fire out from the structure thats close to other structures are DEF the way to go! Cars don't just EXPLODE they take time and with the cold water on them make kill a ff by shooting off parts, but theres not going to be a problem letting the fire continue there while taking care of the potential damage to other homes by putting out the major problem in the structure... Great job guys!

@highcountrytimber Dude shut your your hole. You have no idea what you are talking about. The cars will not explode and putting the garage out saved the house. As for using snow to put out a vehicle fire.... Yea you go ahead and knock yourself out with that.

@highcountrytimber That dept. did just fine. Those cars aren't going to "explode". The damage to the silver car is already done, snow isn't going to help anything. By your rediculous comments I can tell you're not a firefighter.
