Biden caused this unbelievable illegal immigrant disaster. And as soon as Adams started blaming Biden then suddenly the FBI shows up to investigate Adams. And some people actually believe Biden has not weaponized the FBI, DOJ, and DHS.

Much appreciated! Thanks

[@joed9491]

One thing I noticed with FDNY compare to many other agencies. They're not afraid to use their aerials. With that I mean they put theirs to use while I see so many other video's where they sit idle at the scene of a fire.

[@SkylerFire]

If it’s at the building it’s suppose to be on the building

[@microdot153]

Thank you so much Skyler for being out in the cold so many many hours to capture such amazing coverage. AND HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY. Great present given to you even tho it was a few hours late !! I appreciate all you do to get the fires first hand and then share them with all of us.

the way this fire ran there must have been a large attic cockloft area to hide and run . not to much fire at ground level . Bit of a shock for the working folks whom were unaware of this fire yet as it started through to night. Great coverage of the whole event .

[@SkylerFire]

Seemed like they had fire in the deli and Cockloft at same time. This fire was way ahead of them. Hearing multiple ceilings 4 or 5 too so they had to work hard to get all that opened up

[@xaclockard9472]

I don't like the way smoke is gaining pressure pushing through the side wall brick!!! Very smart to pull crews out and regroup on tactics!

Interesting technique to use the tower at street level instead of setting up a Blitz gun.

[@SkylerFire]

Can do more work with a tower ladder, more pressure they had to get thru the multiple ceilings. Was 4 or 5 to get to the Cockloft

[@donkauke2372]

Skyler…to bad you couldn’t convince when you discovered heavy involvement in the rear. Wonder why exposure 3-4 was not covered earlier (as you tried to point out). Last buckets placed on 4 side. Thank you for all, coverage and knowledge of operations.

[@SkylerFire]

For sure! Thanks for your comment

[@BeckiMuttley]

One thing I always think about when these taxpayers burn is that’s probably somebody’s only income maybe for the whole family too. So many insurance companies try to weasel out of paying too. The FDNY do an incredible job, getting water on the fire very quickly and getting the people to safety but it must be absolutely horrendous for some people if everything they have is in the business and they lose it all.

[@SkylerFire]

Sadly very old buildings and a lot of stuff and clutter inside

[@SkylerFire]

No turnout clothing… FDNY knows who i am

[@northeastcarhunter]

Not sure how i missed this video the day it was posted but i did. Great coverage once again, your shots are amazing. Happy belated birthday Question, why do they bring the towers down to ground level? Wouldn't they be more effective from above?? Hooe you have a peaceful and quiet holidays, Be Safe Out There Edit: How Long Was Total Operation On This Scene??

[@SkylerFire]

Thanks much appreciated! They bring tower ladders to street level to get into the Cockloft which is the space between the ceiling and the roof. Around 4 hours was duration

[@rpgaun]

FDNY needs tow trucks to drag those vehicles out of the way. Or work with NYPD to accomplish the vehicle removal. We moved vehicles all the time.

[@SkylerFire]

Well sadly towing is not like it was a few years ago as a few tow pounds were removed so now they just ticket a lot of boots

[@Eric-sn4qz]

Great video as usual, has the audio of this job been released yet?

[@SkylerFire]

Thanks and idk

[@phillipalben7458]

Why didn’t the bucket start attacking from over the roof? Couldn’t hand lines attack thru the sidewalk? No experience here, just curious. Thanks.

[@SkylerFire]

Multiple ceilings over time. The pressure of the tower ladder helps get thru all of them to open it up to get to more fire

[@mondonproductions4088]

My childhood neighboorhood

[@SkylerFire]

Thanks

[@The_DuMont_Network]

They pulled two ladders and replaced them with two more. What is the difference between the towers? Looking for education, not criticising. This was really a sleeper. Went from seemingly small to a major conflagration in no time.

[@SkylerFire]

The fire was way ahead right away. There seemed to be 4 or 5 ceilings Fire was running space between the top ceiling and roof cause it’s all on a common roof. They also had heavy fire in the basement at the same time. Tower ladders have the buckets a lot easier to use master stream that way

[@robertbroughton1443]

First a building collapse, now a major fire. I feel for you guys up there in NYC. As a midwesterner living in Florida, looking at these videos, and previously worked with a retired NYPD officer, in the past when crime was so rampant in the 70's, and early 80's, business owners put those bars up to protect their businesses from crime, now their buildings are being destroyed by fire, because they are an obstacle for firefighters. I'm wondering if there is any enforcement of the building codes? And now due to the "migrant crisis" up there now, things in my view just went from really bad to perilous. I just hope for the citizens sake, that your elected leaders (local, and state) realizes what their policies are doing.

Hey! I have been a paid fireman for 11 years in a city. I am just wondering why in multiple videos you guys smash all the windows? I was always taught to strategically vent the windows near the fire with a hose line in place. All you’re doing is feeding the fire. No disrespect. Just curious what y’all teach?
