FIRE - BIG FIRE - PRIO1

[@fire247]

STORY OF THE FIRST ENGINE LEADER ON SCENE ⬇️⬇️⬇️ Since there are many “expert” firefighters from the US and German reactions in the comments i will post my reaction in English. At arrival on scene the inside of the hall was burning completely including the top op the roof (black smoke). Parts of the roof were already coming down on the outside. Explosions from gas cilinders and other pressure holders could be heard. The first officer on scene declared the building “unsafe to enter” and made the initial decision to a “burn down scenario” Hydrants where to far away and 1 hydrant can only sustain 1 engine. While responding to the alarm “grote brand” was given... In Almere there will be send 4 engines and 1 truck mounted platform to the scene, and a large pump and hoses to haul water from upto 1000 meters from the incident. A second large pump was also asked. The first engine on scene had difficulty opening the gate. The gate was installed recently and the crew was unfamiliar how to open it (agreed). On the other hand... there was minimal damage opening it (just lock and rail). First engine was used to prevent the fire from spreading downwind to the escavators and other trucks and machines. Later all the equiptment was moved by personal of the company under protection from the first engines crew. The second engine was given the order to prevent the fire from spreading to the “sorting station” and cabins what can be seen in the video. The fire in the building could not be reached with handheld lines or stationary monitors without entering. The tower platform later used uses 2000l/min water and also could not reach all the burning mass inside. (It was waste from construction sites) The large pumps where needed to get that much water there. The RC monitor used also uses +- 2000l/min so the total capicity water needed was at minimum 4000l/min without the engines using water. kzbin.info/www/bejne/q6K5pGdnjp2kbNk the large pump with hoses can be seen in this video. Thx to HV Almere There where no holes made into the walls of the building for 2 reasons. 1. Parts if the roof where coming down. 2. Inside the building a secondary steel wal was installed about 4 to 5 meters high where the waste was dumped against. No risks of personal was taken. The building was already heavily damaged upon arrival and could not be saved from the beginning. Acces could probably be better but made no difference, also the use of a lonely hydrant 200 meters away to support 1 engine would not have made any difference. Any advice of using an engine to pull the gate down with chains?? 🙄 dream on!

Fire 24/7 Thank you for giving us a very good description of what you had to deal with. You really had a tough job on your hands.

[@nowinter7355]

Never mind those Captain Hindsight guys, especially when they are from Germany. I'm all for a constructive criticism, but second guessing emergency workers in what I consider amongst the toughest and most important job is plain embarressing and insulting. I've said this before here, a very good family friend was a firefighter all his life, died of cancer without ever seeing his pension while saving lifes. Before he died he started to tell some of the horrible things he had to see during his carreer. He was not a very nice guy, but upon hearing his stories, I forgot all of his grouchyness and tough outlook on life. I have a deep respect for anybody going out there day by day for often very little pay, dealing with onlookers, insults and selfappointed experts while saving peoples lives and livelyhoods. Kudos to you.

I am retired from a large fire department after 35 years and I like the calmness that prevailed. Thank you Fire 24/7 for explaining their thinking and reasons for reacting like they did. I agree with their thinking considering their limitations. What I do not understand is how and industrial area such as this is not required to have it own water system such as hydrants or huge water tanks that would be for Fire Use Only. I also think that I would have really considered putting one of our rescue chains around that gate, hook it to the engine and simply pull the gate off its tracks and out of the way. Thank you again for the great Vlog and try not to be bothered by the criticism from those who do not know the situation and just like to criticize.

[@1961fireguy]

I see the same problems occur in other countries as they do in the U.S., not enough hydrants and water supply to support these huge buildings. No sprinkler systems to catch fires when they are small. Good work guys with what you had to deal with. I have 35 years experience, just retired and these fires are a loser from the beginning and you handled it right protect the responders.

I just spent 20 minutes reading the comments on this video and they basically sum up human intelligence these past two thousand years. You will always get people who assume they can do a better job and people who will always try to put others down to feel better. No matter what you do in life there will always be someone who tries to correct you or tell you what your job it. Thankfully thought there will always be people who defend you and stand their ground against these people who try to spread their opinions as facts. So many people talking bad about these firefighters and acting like they would do better without realizing they had no water supply, how in the world will these people in the comments fight a fire better with no water. Thankfully there are always people to point out the facts these geniuses have conveniently missed. Seriously this happens in every profession so if you are the type who think you know better without having any knowledge or experience in that subject then just do what the rest of us do and sit back and enjoy without trying to correct professionals with your opinions, you will probably enjoy life for once if you did.

I agree sir. We always say, it's risk versus benefit. If someone was trapped inside then maybe (if conditions allow) send a team in...here there was obviously no one inside so there is zero need in sending teams in and risking the already severely compromised structure falling in on them. Protect exposures to prevent any other property damage and use monitors and aerial equipment to do the rest. Building was a loss on arrival and materials inside were refuse/recycling anyhow. This is why companies buy insurance to begin with.

@Reg. Oper. Team High Pressure Hoses went out of style in America 40 years ago. Modern light weight building techniques made them impractical to use. They punch right through wall. Foam is used somewhat, Class B is most popular. CAFS is rare, I believe in it, cost and maintenance hurt. Budget cuts usually hit fire service first. Also some localities have banned foam, run off can cause "environmental " concerns. As far as out dated trucks with a million lights, regulations have made new pieces so expensive Department have to run wheels off of them to get payback. Huge amount of lights is again a regulation thing, trying to make apparatus visible. Training and tactics are all over spectrum because regulations and laws are the same.

Whilst by the time external services arrived it was too far gone if someone had visited site earlier and caught it very early after ignition they would still have been stuck as the two double extinguisher cabinets each side of the warehouse entrance are conspicuously open and empty....

Why did the first engine on the scene not hook a set of chains up and rip the gate down? Surthe cost of replacing a gate would be far less than that of the building? Are insurance companies not on board with this?

[@VgPaassen]

insurance companies don't allou that they need to cut ells they wont pay

[@tasel5791]

Mayham thats total bs, they didnt do that because 1st they would very likely damage their truck with that and 2nd it most likely wouldnt work anyway

It would be so cool if some of the guys commenting under this video could join a local fire department because apparently they can put out a fire using just the power of their mind and no water

[@rusty_stapler3022]

Lmao right, people need to understand what it takes and circumstances before judging, these guys only had one hydrant that was 200 meters away, no way they were going to save this building.

That's what we are taught aswel.. if there is no savable life or property go defensive mode and fight the fire from outside and let it burn itself out

Is dit type bedrijf (afvalverwerking) niet verplicht om bijvoorbeeld brandkranen te plaatsen? Het is niet de eerste keer dat een afvalverwerker in brand vliegt.

I wonder why a large facility like that doesn’t have a hydrant system? Is it not law in a country as developed as Holland?

[@natanvanhelden385]

@@jaywhoisit4863 Holland is a part of the Netherlands, and the part they were in was not Holland ;) But there are a couple of (dutch) people in the comments mentioning the same. I don't know the laws, but it does indeed seem dumb not to have a hydrant system in place!!

Jay Whoisit our country is in dutch: Nederland In English: The Netherlands The Netherlands is split into 12 provinces, 2 of them are Noord-Holland and Zuid-Holland In English: North-Holland and South-Holland Those 2 together are Holland So yeah, Holland is just a part of the Netherlands

Interesting how people seem to be more interested in the semantics of the geography rather than answering the question: Why isn't there a hydrant system in place at that location?

Sooo are there no hydrants in the Netherlands? That business surely must have had a water supply, so there must have been a water line in the ground. Why did they have to get the water from that far away?

[@jacobmcalister8650]

The warehouse was outside a water lined zone because it was so remote, and to answer the question does the Netherlands not have hydrants? Well the do but it is underground water line they use and they use hydrants that are carried on the trucks and then plug those hydrants into a hydrant point to get water to the truck, it is a similar system that is used in Australia. The reason they got the water from so far away was because the was the nearest water point. If you put on subtitles (make sure it is on english) and watch from 7:30 to 8:25 it is explained.

[@ChesterWolf]

To answer your question yes they do have fire hydrants but they are located in a hatch Underground they connect direct to the mains water supply. Why are European fire hydrants Underground number 1 to stop them from becoming damaged number-2 to it offers freeze protection number-3 it stops vandalism or misuse.
