  • waste if diesel....

  • @2URBO2 Don't even start it.

  • NOW THATS A BONFIRE!

  • Wow, this is environmental friendly!

  • OMG thats like a flaming tornado aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!

  • We just did a 500 gallon diesel burn today but ours was in a burn trey. gets hot up close

  • holy crap

  • Expensive?

    May be, but using not more than 0.6 % can not generate a lot of costs.

    Water consuming is max 40 gallons/minute, they took less than 100 seconds!

    Imagine 60 gallons of water consumed makes 0.36 gallons of foam concentrate.

    Will you any more discuss the price of this action?

  • ATF foam is the best you can get... It's used in airports. But it's not cheap...

  • This fire would not have gone out with water. That is why they used foam. This is a class b fire because it is a flammable liquid. You need to stop the vapors from burning and water will not do that on its own. Try lighting a small kitchen pan full of gasoline or diesel in a parking lot and try to put it out with a water can. Let me know what happens lol
