The one minute clip on the $27 million dollar Fire-Boat? Maybe we'll see more about this boat in a video for fire-fighting planes and helicopters.

If you want good on point information on high tech fireboats without "filler", search KZbin for videos on the most recent generation of NYFD boats.

What a fantastic documentary about the fire boat. I enjoyed **all 3 minutes and 11 seconds** of it. 🙄🤦‍♂️

The personnel on the fireboats and rescue craft are the most modest people you'll meet, but when the need arises, they rush in while others leave the scene as fast as possible.

You don't use oxygen masks! Your B.A. sets use air! Oxygen is flamable.

Oxygen isn't flammable by itself, it makes other things ignite, and yes they use regular air because it has oxygen in it.

I was visiting Seattle several years ago. I was given a personal tour of their new fire boat. It was not in service yet. It was awesome! Then a few days later it was out in the bay running trials when we up in the space needle.

@paulfielding2785 Жыл бұрын

Oxygen is an "oxidizer." While O2 isn't flammable, it's introduction into a fire creates an explosive increase in the burning process.

@scottsasser7749 16 күн бұрын

Well, yeah, because they get access to water constantly. That's why they can put more water on a fire than a firecraft. Now what they need to do is all these fires that are on land they should send fire water trucks, so didn't it have a supply of water? Constantly and the hoses need to be up-to-date. They don't leak. They keep their fire truck so spotless and shiny, but they don't keep there. Hoses and good shape all the fittings. Have you ever seen it on TV? Look at the ground underneath the fire truck. Is it dry or is it wet if it's wet? Then it's leaking

Iv seen fireboats used to supply meny engines on land. There just another tool in the fire service.

Why do people keep calling the tanks that firefighters wear oxygen tanks, that's not what they are! They are just compressed air, if they were pure oxygen they would create a hazard

I wish people would get there act together. They are air packs with compressed air in the tank NOT oxygen same air everybody breaths but is compressed to 4500 PSI. Don t know why everybody thinks there is combustible oxygen in those tanks

Not O2 breathing apparatus but compressed air. SCBA.

Reminds me of "single propeller helicopter", "chinook propellers can clash each other", what is the actual price anyway? I heards a chance of swimmers as invasion, then if wrong info, colours looks like egypt or arab anyway? Fireengine supposed to be all red? Ships can install "own flood as water will drop to sea anyway". Unless this is like blackoil on sea and fire(if swimmers exist)? Or if just for fun thing might happen? Why is it written like that? $27m?
