Good job on saving the car guys well done

Merry Christmas. Good job containing the residential property fire to one building and protection of adjoining structures. Also great salvage of the roller. 🎄🌏

From a long time volunteer firefighter. Being I'm in the U.S., I don't understand the hydrants being covered below ground. Is this common? I did see another video of this same fire. Great coordinated effort. And that is an absolutely beautiful Rolls. Merry Christmas from the U.S.

@@jimbrewer2893 Yes it is common in Australia & New Zealand. Most hydrants are located on the corner of intersections and at intervals along cross streets. Standpipes are carried on the trucks. These are screwed down onto the outlet 4 or 5 turns and then the water valve is opened using a T shaped key. Standpipes usually have 2 outlets. There's probably less chance of a hydrant being tampered with, being underground, not sure if that's the real reason though. Hope you have a Merry Christmas 🎅 too from Australia 🇦🇺

We taught to lessen the impact for the home owner and for fire investigors, its not easy and its difficult as a fire-fighter knowing that sadly your unintentionally destroying memories and treasured items in the pursuit to extinguish a fire....this hit me hard at my 1st house fire so in my life and I tell others to keep copies of treasurer photos, or documents on a portable hard drive & jewellery, passports etc in a fire proof bag, convenient to grab if and when you need to evacuate mine is next to my bed

Yep...that's a "pretty significant" fire. Can't agree with that.
