fire in Toledo tfd and tpd on scene

[@Urbakdor]

About 2 mins in I was like "this has to be a controlled burn".

[@electricboyo]

To me it appears the electric service is totally disconnected: No overhead wires are seen going to utility pole. And with several boarded up windows too, I think this is likely to be an abandoned residence. Therefore FD is mainly keeping the flames dark enough to protect the exposures on either side. But not making an aggressive attack on the fire building itself.

[@marianneturner7267]

That would be my guess as well, in fact there may have been a previous fire in that house. I've seen a lot of these lately, the homeless break into them, light a small fire to keep warm, and ultimately setting the whole house on fire.

Super video, thank You! All the best from Czech volunteer firefighter...

[@elijah3427]

Thank you very much!

[@jeffharjessr.9893]

Could have been a controlled burn/training burn. House was boarded up. Some winks and the front door.

[@stephaniekelly4384]

House fires always freak me out. Where i live there's been 5 in the past 11 years including 4 fatalities

[@Sea-cucumber1151]

Looked like a control burn and or training, boarded up and had a sign on the post as well. Just trying to keep the trees and neighbors house from being affected.

[@LSFIREVIDEOS]

Fantastic video!

[@mikeymcmikeface5599]

not really

[@elijah3427]

Thank you very much!

Where in Toledo was this?

[@elijah3427]

East Broadway and star

[@jamesaddie4895]

This better be a controled burn if not this fire department

[@johnclyne6350]

Did anyone notice the bald faced hornet nest in the tree across from the structure fire?

[@marymargemorgan6756]

Only one hose???

[@terrenceanderson7966]

Is this a controlled burn or what.. it's no eargency to fight the fire.

[@virgilhilts3924]

You should learn how to spell before criticizing others.

[@terrenceanderson7966]

@virgilhilts3924 I got my point across, apparently 😅 so 🤷

[@JeffRobinson-m3e]

Goner on arrival, fellas.

[@cathleensteele6808]

Was this a vacant house??

[@elijah3427]

yea, it was vacsnt

[@transilvanischervampir666]

Warmer Abriss 🤫

[@dongelinas5990]

Water issues??????

[@fireguye4]

Probably a department training

[@teresaallen3045]

Looks like electric fire I hate see house fires

[@Trish0305]

There is a comment saying that there are no electricity wires going to the house if you read all the comments✌️

[@CorradoMartone]

Voi non siete pompieri ma lavoratori che con molta calma e senza nessuna fretta spegnete il fuoco stando bene attenti a non sporcarvi le mani. Chi ha fatto questo video poi è un assoluto incompetente perché dal fuoco si passa alla casa spenta. Spero di non perdere mai più tempo a guardare un video di questo genere.🤬👎

[@elijah3427]

This is in America and we have procedures in place to keep our firefighters as safe as possible during the process. Not sure what you're rambling about but regardless of the occupancy of a structure, the fire must be extinguished to prevent it from spreading.

[@CorradoMartone]

@@elijah3427 Grazie per aver risposto. Ma l' America è l'unico paese dove ho visto simile spettacoli. Quello che trovo incredibile è la passività e la lentezza dell' intervento. Arrivano 15/ 20 pompieri con 5/6 automezzi e poi si vede una sola manichetta in azione con tutti i pompieri che guardano senza fare nulla. Andate a vedere video simili di altri paesi. Mi spiace rimango della mia opinione.

[@elijah3427]

@@CorradoMartone I understand

[@averteddisasterbarely2339]

​@@CorradoMartoneif you've seen other videos of American firefighters then it's not hard to understand that this is not the normal approach ! This is a vacant house with no power ! It's most likely a controlled burn !

[@CorradoMartone]

@@averteddisasterbarely2339 Grazie per aver risposto. Ho visto molti video sui pompieri americani. Mi spiace ma il loro comportamento ai miei occhi è sconcertante. Lenti, privi di ogni iniziativa, con procedure che fanno ritardare l' intervento. Per esempio le autopompe non hanno quella manichetta di pronto impiego che servirebbe per l' immediato intervento. Dovete svolgere 50 metri di manichetta, attaccarla all' idrante e poi forse cominciare a spegnere. Vada lei a vedere gli interventi di pompieri d altre nazioni, vedrà che diversità di intervento. Mi scuso per la lingua usata ma il mio inglese è scadente. Saluti.

[@Johnny64ism]

no effort to get any substantial water on this fire. A lot of walkin around perhaps they were having water issues or the lack thereof

[@derrickw5204]

It apparently was a controlled burn . The fire department here does them twice a year to rid of abandoned houses that have become a nuisance .

[@Signal14Dev]

No because I’m Toledo we don’t like attacking from inside when the fire is on the roof so we decided to attack from outside which take longer

[@hillbilly4555]

Poor video

[@JB91710]

Oh NO! The USA fire Disservice can't help being inept. When you drive up and lay in, you can see the fire is exiting the rear of the structure. What do they do? Focus on going inside which takes time, is dangerous and greatly limits their access to the burning material because of the HEAT AND SMOKE they have to fight through. All they had to do is pull a 2-1/2" line to the rear and soak all those rooms. In one to two minutes, they could have knocked this down LONG before they could have gotten the front door open. THEN, they pull out their favorite TOY, the ladder if you didn't know what I was talking about and proceeded to wet down the shingles. Wonderful. Any real firefighting was edited out. Too embarrassing to leave in? If this was a controlled burn, they didn't bother to practice firefighting!

[@lukehess2360]

You’re not overly bright, are you? It’s a controlled burn/training fire.

[@JB91710]

@@lukehess2360 Either way, my comment still stands. They demonstrated no training in that video. Nothing but Flame Watchers. Horrible water application. They didn't even try to learn or practice anything. Third Generation Real Firefighter!

[@jimbrewer2893]

@@JB91710 Mr. Firefighter himself. We meet again. I know, you wrote all of the training manuals. All of the NFPA standards. You know everything there is to know about fire science and fire suppression. Gee, I wish I knew as much as you.

[@williamedwards1528]

The house was lost from the very beginning.

[@JB91710]

@@williamedwards1528 That's not a call a firefighter can make. Their job is to stop the threat. Even if a structure will end up a total loss, it's a great opportunity to practice on a live fire. But the lazy USA fire service almost NEVER takes advantage of that. They just like to watch the flames
