Crews battling 4-alarm apartment fire in downtown Portland

I'm super in love with this concept of 'mutual aid'. Seems like a natural aspect of equitable regard at play there. Bravo everyone for work well done.

Thank you, Portland fire and rescue! Put the wet stuff on the hot stuff.

So this is how KPTV Fox 12 Oregon shoots the fire scene? Every amateur fire scene photographer on KZbin is doing a MUCH better job. We start with a scene of several firemen just standing around and talking. We then go to the fast action close-up of a water stream going through a smoking window and an attempt to spray a window with the glass still intact. Then there's the nail biting thrill of the photographer trying to relocate with a hot camera attempting to see if there are any birds nests in immediate danger. All in the first minute and 8 seconds of action. I just hope I can stand the excitement of the last 27:05 of this "blockbuster"!

KPTV is the best station in Portland I hope noone was hurt in the fire

[@gillesrenaud6926]

If it's the best tv station, they did not send the best cameraman.

[@kittenduo411]

@@gillesrenaud6926 Yes they did when the camraman has to stay back so far away from the fire.

Zoom is not your friend.

Too bad about the fire. This video could/should have been better edited.

Are these firefighters volunteer?😅

[@jharris5387]

I see two truck companies and a single engine company and that's all I see. The camera operator is obviously smoking Crack as he or she gives us a good view of the trees. This is all the Portland fire dept has to offer?

Poor camera work.i do not care about the trees.
