Time to switch to battery operated saws. They've come a long way and are great for situations like this

Absolutely no need for VVing. 1. It's an old and rotting house that could have an unsafe roof. 2. The fire wouldn't make it safer. 3. You soak that fire room with tank water through the windows and then open all of them. All from the exterior. 4. All that Visible Burning Material out back being ignored. 5. 7:00 Hey CHILDREN, the fire is still burning so what was the point of going on the roof? I'll tell you what. GETTING OFF!

Piss poor job, five minutes to get water through the front door. Once they open the roof stand around and look at the Fire who would ever think to come down the ladder take out the side windows let some of the pressure off. Certainly it wasn’t in the morons mind holding to pick at it. Ask that could’ve done it. No wonder they were from Texas. John

I’m in the attic they haven’t got through the front door yet you’re moron park the ladder truck as far as ways you can who would ever think.

A rocking intense structure fire...Great job HFD (#18) getting a quick 360 and getting lines into operations for exposures and fire structure! I don't know what kind of fire load was in the rear of (fire) structure but whatever it was it was rocking? That is one of the challenges for HFD! Houston has absolutely NO property/occupancy zoning control, so firefighters never know what they will encounter even when responding to a bread and butter residential structure fire. Great job HFD! Be Safe!!!

Going up on the roof without sounding it not good. There are videos of firefighters falling through the roof into heavy fire. Look up the Fresno CA firefighter that fell through the roof even sounding the roof he still fell in.
@andyoxleyonhistravels4 жыл бұрын
I cannot understand why they do it. They seemed more worried about going on the roof than actually putting some water on the fire that was already venting towards the back of the building. An old roof like that vents well enough as it is .Any good interior crew with a hoseline and thermal image camera should be able to make good progress inside. Stay safe guys.

All anyone has to do is use common sense and logic to figure out what is needed at any of these fires. Firefighting is Not Rocket Science. You do NOT have to be There to figure it out. The Obvious is exactly what you do and yet 95% of American departments have no clue what that is and the videos prove it.
