** Fire Inferno ** 3 Buildings Fully Involved (Tony's Liquor) Broadway Newark Nj 4-22-24 P1

the way that the video is edited, it shows the same scene from different angles multiple times. The deck gun was used a lot sooner than the video shows, the driver that used it had to hop over and use another company’s gun due to low manpower.

Dragging 5 inch down the block to a hydrant you passed on the way in

[@hvfd5956]

I never had the pleasure. When I was riding, no LDH. We did have a deck gun and used it more often than most departments. We had a period in which the dumpster companies wouldn't pick up. Store would then set the dumpsters on fire to make more room. We found out the size of the drain hole and custom turned wooden plugs. Then use the deck gun to fill the dumpster to the top. Most drivers were smart enough to look first, but the few that tried to lift a full dumpster ended up blowing a hydraulic line. I did get to pull plenty of 1 3/4 and 2 1/2 and roll up a bunch of it.

Not sure why they do that. I think some efficiency expert came up with that idea. When I was riding (late 70's) our station chief would regularly drill us on streets and where the plugs were. Even though I was a volly, I had to do the same drills the paid guys had to. As such, on calls, we were expected to know where the streets and plugs were. One night we were headed to a fire in which the first in engine was already there, so we knew we had a fire. We got to the place where we were supposed to turn and the chauffeur kept going. Captain ask him if he was alright and he said yes. Captain explained he missed the turn about 3 blocks back. He turned around and went back. Hey, it was 3 in the morning, not like we had to battle rush hour traffic. We layed 2 2 1/2's and I bailed from my jump seat to help prepare the plug. Used car dealer and someone was late and tried to burn the evidence.

[@sturmovik1274]

Not a firefighter, but nobody else has answered this, so I'll contribute what I do know. Early in the video, you can hear them say that they're rescuing people out the back, meaning that there are still FFs and civilians inside. One common rule of firefighting is not to spray from the outside while there are FFs working inside. The water stream can knock down and disorient FFs inside, it can bring debris down on them and it can create clouds of superhot steam. Also, the FFs inside presumably have a number of hoselines with them, so it's not like there's no water being used. They use interior OR exterior water, not both together. Again, not a firefighter, but that's my two cents.

Why doesn't Newark key the hydrant with supply line and then drive up to the fire?? How come your Engines do not use their deck guns sooner to knockdown a lot of fire and slow the extension. (3:25 your tape time) Though they could have been shut down after a few minutes. Once you turned the corner, Don't see the access to the apartments over the Market. Don't see any lines there either. That is the most severe exposure and the most severely exposed due to wind. OK at 8 :30 they are going into the exposure. Looked like a tough job. Once again the reduction in manpower is all too clear.

[@thomaswilliamson5951]

Why did it take so long for them to put water on the fire ?,

[@luicalibre6665]

1. The first engine has to make room for the other apparatus approaching and an LDH supply line blocks there entry. 2. Usually the next engine hits the hydrants then stretches to the first engine or the first due ladder. 3. Using a deck gun from a truck that usually has @ 500 gals of water would drain the tank in 1-1.5 minutes. Yes, the deck gun is under-utilized but a water source must be secured first to feed that thirsty beast.

Well they did take forever to get some water on the exposures which just help the fire spread much further than it needed. If you are struggling to get your water supply up and running then instead of having a couple of guys going up on the roof doing nothing then get them to assist with getting water sorted .Its about making best use of your resources at the time. Sometimes you just have to do things a bit different instead of saying that its not their job to do this or that. I am sure the interior crews were working hard but there was loads of exterior firefighting that should have been dealt with much quicker had the resources been better used. On wooden buildings like these it is more important to get you water sorted as the speed of fire spread can be fast.
