Arrival Video: Firefighters battle this fully involved house fire

[@Nick_J_]

Whoever covered up that brickwork should be jailed

[@lmccluer]

As a former firefighter of 35 years plus, both paid and volunteer, I love watching videos on fires. I guess it’s because I miss the brotherhood, training and putting the wet stuff on the red stuff. I miss saving life’s first, and saving property second. What I don’t understand is pre-connect hoses were brought into the service to allow firefighters to quickly pull a hose off the truck on arrival, get it charged because it’s already “ore-connected”, is an expeditious fashion to allow a quick knockdown of a fire, slowing the spread of the fire, and allow firefighters a quicker, safer entry for search and rescue, if needed. Video after video, I see arrivals, I see firefighters pulling pre-connects, then waiting forever for the engineer to charge that line or lines, so an attack can be made, while the engineer connects the feeder line from the hydrant. Why does it take forever on a lot, I’m talking what seems a majority for the P-C to be charged? Are engineers waiting for feeder hoses to be connected? If so, why? All are typically carrying a water tank just for that purpose! If protocols say wait until a feeder line is connected before charging a P-C, then why have a P-C? That’s why P-C’s are usually an 1 1/2” or typically a 2”, so you aren’t draining the tank so fast. Crews should be able to connect a feeder hose before the tank is empty! Ok, rant over, although I don’t consider it a rant, it’s a question as to why. And it may be me, but that’s my observance.

[@jaybee6806]

Louis McCluer I agree with you. I watch video after video and what I see that could be a quick knockdown ends up turning into an unfortunate situation. Here in Hawaii we live with our windows open all year long so, we train to get water on the fire first thing (tank to pump) 750 gal. tank with 2- 1 1/2" pre connects at 185 gpm. In less than a minute we have water on the fire. Hard from the yard, reset the fire, transitional attack is all water first. I shake my head when I see pike poles and hooks being taken off the truck but no hoses.

That’s how I started, except we called our program Cadets. Back then we were a public safety department, which was both firefighting and police under one director. Cadets were from 14-18 years old. I started when I was 14, ended up being in it for over 40 years. Volunteer firefighter, cadets, reserves. 911 dispatcher then in charge of our 911 center, at the same time a reserve police officer. Then seasonal park ranger for our state, then a full time officer. My dad was a volunteer firefighter and reserve policeman, both of my brothers were in cadets, my youngest brother went into the Air Force as a security then K9 officer, then full time law enforcement.

[@richardolsen2798]

@@RepublicOfTheWolfPackXanthera Electricity, even at high voltages, like 345,000 volts, will not follow a hose stream back. A firefighter wearing proper PPE would have to be very unlucky or in a tangle of wires that for some reason had not shorted out when the insulation burned away to be injured by electrical shock during a house fire. It has happened, but so has being struck by lightning, the latter more frequently. Should the electrical supply line to a burning house come loose and fall, fire fighters at the scene should all be made aware of it, and leave it where it fell, command notify the power company, and avoid dragging or carrying hoses or other equipment across it.

[@richardolsen2798]

@@RepublicOfTheWolfPackXanthera Actually, there is a table that has been compiled by laboratory testing that electrical conductors carrying 12,000 volts or less can be sprayed with tap water from a hose stream from as close as one inch. Most people don't know that pure water, rain water before it hits the ground, or distilled water, is an insulator. Pure water is never found free standing in nature. I was a volunteer fireman for 26 years, 16 as a chief officer. I've done the fire stream into 345k volts a number of times. I'll let someone else do the 12k volts, though.

The firefighters inside can be seen by the streams of water blowing outward.

Not a firefighter just curious is 2 minutes an average amount of time from when you arrive til you start putting water on fire? I know hydrants have to be hooked up and so on, but trucks have water tanks and there’s different size hoses for different operations but to me I’m thinking why do ont they have a hose on a reel that someone can pull out and start putting water on the fire until the hydrant is hooked up and other line is charged? Just curious

[@Trojanny]

Firefighters, let's get going on automatic in-home firefighting systems. Yes, expensive now, however, areas experimenting w/ all kinds of ways.

[@skymedic48]

The firefighters have nothing to do with that. That's homeowners who pay to put them in. And to retro fit a house of what appears to the age of the one in the video, would likely cost more than what the house is worth. And, they dont neccesarily put the fire out...they kepp it in check, but can be overcome dependent on type of fire and structure.

was there a gas leak?? what was hissing at start.

[@derekmunro5100]

That was the refrigerant from the a/c unit.

[@stevenkelly9731]

Time wasted with all crew members hooking up to the hydrant and the line person having no SCBA on.

Yup, a lot of it!

Looks like the vinyl siding was added togheter with styrofoam insulation sheeting on the outside, which in fact is an effective way to insulate an old brick building, you just don't want to have an AC on fire next to it. l

[@adredsox79]

I can’t believe the firemen went to do a inside attack with all the ammo going off. Usually they make a call to do a defensive attack do to the ammo. Granted most of it going off is harmless but there are sometimes it can be harmful

[@fdMT_EnGy]

There was no chief to make that call, he was too busy being a firefighter again instead of leading.

[@rosejohnson9957]

I know this was a while ago but one thing I always wondered was when you see your house on fire why don't you move the car!!!!!!

It could be the door or window they fled out of was no where near their car keys!

The fire service has got to do better than that with the first arriving companies. Train, train, train.

[@nickakers7985]

I’m glad I live in a large city with a well trained fire department.

[@tewksburydriver8624]

I agree this was not perfect, but people don't truly realize how difficult it really is to fight a heavy volume of fire that is in the lowest part of the structure, or the highest, or both. Zero visibility in an unfamiliar building, you try and find access to the attic. Not as easy as you think.

Sounds of ammo going off in the fire , now that's scary

[@NkrumahMorgan]

Walter Baker - It is not as scary as you’d think, if you know how plain ammunition and fire reacts. Without the chamber/barrel to compress the explosion, ammunition is not that dangerous. Check out this KZbin video that specifically tests what happens with ammo inside a fire. A loaded firearm in the same scenario is a different matter altogether. Because it has the compression it will shoot as if someone pulled the trigger. You don’t have the same concerns with plain old loose ammo. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aYTPgIulrNx2asU
