  • @firefighterunit251 dont know what planet youre from but at my firehouse we put the wet stuff on the red stuff to make it go away

  • Bad comments? I was there they were on the roof as a R.I.T team there was suspicion that there was possibly another person in there that was a truck company up there not an engine company

  • water is not use to put out fire it used to cool down the tempture of smoke.. smoke is gas vapor the water used to cool down before it can start fire again..

  • Took to long to get water on this fire. Not sure if they had water issues, OOS hydrant, relay. Fire was already in the voids and under the eaves. Two lines fighting this fire from the inside should have been their SOP. Didn't look like an outside operation to me. Just my observation from watching this, no disrespect to the CFD.

  • @ppfdkid Because they have minuts, hours to seat there and criticisize the action some one had seconds to act on.. Sucks but thats life.

    See a comment "open up the roof" Don't see a reason to risk firefighter safety with roof vent on that tyep of roof. Even more so since that window is doing a good job of venting...

    I do agree with having a line up the ladder charged, but thats just me. Not a complaint.

    Stay safe

    P.S: I don't think any FD is better then the next! Training differs!

  • @tbone6636 because in a fire like this there was potential victims, masterstreams often push the fire on a higher lever than a handline, and in the beginning of the video you can see this was a what looked to be a one room job with no way of employing said masterstream.

  • What happened to the nozzle on the second line? Looked like a clog or something.

  • Those look like Scott Airpacks but sounds like a MSA pass device.

  • @drgLACity yea add fuel to the fire without a charged line. good call jerky

  • Yeah, but such a simple fire turned into a shit show.
