Fire in Weld County field

[@ohhi1134]

I grew up on a farm in the UK. One day I got caught on foot in a field of burning straw. My only way out was to jump through the flames. A field fire burning straw moves incredibly quickly and the heat is intense. That farmer took a huge risk. Pulling a harrow flat out in a standing grain field like that can easily go wrong. A breakage and the whole rig would slew round, the tractor would be immediately trapped unable to move and would have been engulfed.

I was one of the first people there too, lucky the cabin burning was under our above ground water tank. So I hit the emergency drain lever and poured out 3k gallons of water and snuffed out the fire. We lost the cabin but the rest of the ones near by didn't get touched. This is why camp grounds don't allow smoking inside our cabins. Well the main reason.

From "11 Scariest Things Caught By Drones" by Chills. "10. When a freak thunderstorm sets this large hay field on fire in Weld County, Colorado, a brave farmer named Eric Howard hops in his tractor and heads straight for the action. He has a wild plan that's about to greatly help firefighters contain the 30 acre blaze if all goes well. Thinking fast, Eric quickly carves a long path across the field to keep the fire from spreading. It's a firefighting strategy called a fire line, which is where you remove the top soil so that there is less material to burn. He barely manages to stay ahead of the inferno and the dancing flames grow tall enough to melt the paint off his trusty tractor the whole time. Eventually the wildfire is contained and Eric is credited by the firefighters for his gutsy plan, which probably saved additional acres from going up in flames. Let me know what you would do in this situation and if you think Eric should have left it to the professionals." -Chills

Therefore our team have to leave him and continue it by ourselves, but it is also don't have much progression. I probably most of the blame. Besides that mentorship, I also had some issues, laziness, my leadership, parent issues, running away from stuff, too idealistic, scared for no reason, college & work, etc. I am also currently burned out from everything that has something to do with my hobbies, which are graphic design, video editing, programming, and not to mention gamedev. I should've seen my therapist more often. I decided to disband the team and we continue by each of ourselves, so I don't hinder their future, and rejoin when things are alright.

A brave and lucky man. My hats off to him. He's lucky the wind didn't shift in his direction. This could've been tragic. Im glad it all worked out.

Well done. This is the best way to stop the running of the fire 🔥. My father did it to.

that farmer was really smart. preventing the fire from spreading by creating a barrier saving a good number of his crops

[@calebray4159]

That's got to be stressful.

[@TheKonga88]

Really?

[@BepBepStev]

Absolutely. Even though that man is just the neighbor, he knows how much money was just lost, and hes on the edge of being killed. There have been farmers who got stuck in their tractors as they caught on fire and were killed. This man is a badass

The CROP is the solution !!! Bravo Colorado's farmer with the John !!! ;o)

[@fsj197811]

I love that you can see how it burned out at the fire break. WELL DONE!

[@firefighter3760]

around here with so much corn, a lot of the time thats the fastest way of getting the fire out or under control

[@StormsandSaugeye]

Especially here in Ohio, where you have miles and miles of corn fields. Best to plow under what you can to save the crops.

Farm fire is very common in India during hot summer. I belong to Punjab state of India, its agricultural hub of india. And during summer when wheat crop is ready, many incidents of fire happens. Its very heart breaking and sometimes cause for suicide for farmer who take loan for that crop.

[@SamDru]

Is there any heat wave in India?

[@PrabhjotSinghGrace]

@@SamDru during summer heat waves are very common in North India. Specially in May/June Month

[@mwhitelaw8569]

It gets very hot there from what I've been told. It saddens me to know people kill themselves over things like that. But extending oneself brings a particular stress that would do that to some.

In the fifties there was a trash fire that got close to our hay field, and the wind was blowing towards the farm. He ran back and got my grandfather and they hooked plows up to the Oliver 770 and Ferguson 35 we had, the cut a ridge and saved our farm.
