  • I'm on the Fire Dept that responded to this call. I was on duty and at this call. The Fire Chief actually recorded this video.

  • Thing is you can't just put out an electrical fire. You need the supply to be shut off, and in cases of electricity meters, they are owned by the electricity board, and no one is allowed to tamper with their equipment. There was nothing else the person recorded the video could do.

    BTW I work in the electrical industry.

  • I want popcorn for the movies.

  • I guess you had to many christmas lights plugged in?

  • FIREWORKS

  • @davyboy90 In a case where property damage is at risk, the best course of action in this case is to physically sever the input using an insulates axe,such as a fire axe. In Texas, at least, you are allowed to use what ever means necessary to prevent loss to life or property.

  • ...now THAT begs for a deluge of balloons filled w/salt water and vinegar...!!

    BOOSH! BIZ-ZZ-ZZ-AA-AA-ZZ-ZZ-ZZ...PHI­SS-SS-SS-SS-ZZ-ZZ-II-TT! BOOM!!

  • so, how does the power company know how much to charge you for that month? Do they just give you a break, since it was their equipment that almost burned down yoour building?

  • Same thing happened with our meter which you can view on my page. I don't have the video of it happening as I was pulling a bush away from by the meter so it wouldn't catch fire. Neighbor had an ABC fire extinguisher and we used a quick burst to put the fire out it worked. It popped a lot afterwards but there was no risk of a fire after that and even if it did catch on fire again I would have just did a quick burst again. We have a brick house too thankfully.

  • @spenceray357 it sounds like popcorn!

  • this is just like a small fire work

  • Car wash is turning to "car ash"

  • all of a sudden I am in the mood for popcorn
