Has this fire company ever heard of WATER! WTF. all they do is cut holes in the roof and rip the outside of the house off. They all stare at the fire in the roof, and one guy looks like he's spitting on it. It was light out when the video started!

All real firemen now not to put a hose stream into a vent hole. As for the fire it was located in an attic that did not have good access for inside hose streams.

I live in Pelham...where in Pelham was this?

[eclemente79]

It was at 984 Split Rock Rd. in the Manor. if you get off the Hutch going south bound it is the first street after going under the bridge towards 4 Corners

@Norfolkscot ya i could see how untrained firefighters from the UK who know nothing about fighting real fires would think that. See we try and save structures here not let them burn to the ground. I am sure someday you will read a book and learn this stuff.

you obviously are not a trained fire fighter or you would not have made a idiotic statement like that.
