  • what was the address of this fire, the building looks eerily familiar.

  • @1stresponder1, right down the street from the firehouse

  • how does a microwave start a fire in the attick? just wondering, I have heard of stranger.

  • that building was transformed into an apartment building. 3 floors. and the attic was an apartment itself.

  • what does it mean when the smoke goes black?

  • White is USUALLY a signal that water vapor is present. Darker smoke is USUALLY a signal that organics with no water is present.

  • @Zugvogel1 lol, i know that ive been a firefighter myself for some time know, ive been on enough fires to know what can kill me

  • @WillSmithsMom It didn´t need to be a Backdraft.Also a Flashover can be deathly.But Why they don´t pull hte Ladder a bit away and continue Spraying water at the Roof...? There is enough Space between Buildung und Ladder ?

  • Thick black smoke means that there is a very angry fire somewhere in that building.

  • @Jet3800 really thick heavy black smoke is usually an indication that there is potential for a backdraft

  • you are so wrong i lived in that house when it happened there is no attic what are you talking about it was in my apartment and the dogs are mine there pugs

  • the wiring for all the elctrical outlets were all old and outdated and the amount of electricity that was running to the breaker and out was too much.

  • the wiring in that hous was bad.....like i said be fore the landlord was notified mulitple times of this and did nothing except to say that it was fine.

  • my friend lived iin that house and lost everything he now lives next door to me, when i heard about that fire i was amazed.
