That is a lot of Nope. Incredible work by you fine folks.

As the man said, There's nothing stronger than the heart of a volunteer. - Doolittle.

Just image if they were surrounded by that fire and in burnover mode

[@daisy9910]

Thanks Terrey Hills RFS for coming to help the mountains community.

[@Blackheathenly]

Thank you from Rodriguez Ave, Blackheath!

[@ShoganAye]

you guys are just amazing. that is the stuff of nightmares. thank you for everything you are doing for us all.

[@binge4k908]

Bear in mind it took so long to get this footage on to KZbin because the firefighters haven't had time to edit or upload. Many of them have been exhausted and over-worked.

[@terreyhills]

I have had to post publishing edit this as I was operating on 2 hours sleep after a 20 something hour shift when I uploaded this so the original title page has now gone :-) (I got the year wrong and listed as shot in 2018).

That fence looks like a lot of trouble. I thought these brush fences were against the regulations for fire prone areas, which this area legally is. Hopefully neither house was lost because of it, but looks like you guys did a great job.

[@mavv7088]

Guys and Girls if this was my house I would be questioning what you were doing there. Houses can be rebuilt, but lives cannot be replaced. (I lost property in the Otways VIC in 1984 so I am not some armchair warrior. Been there done that bought the T shirt). Stay Safe and stay alive.

[@josh6776]

Its called property protection and the whole point of it is to save Homes. The area was evacuated hence why crews where there.

[@redknight801]

God bless these men and women and the work they do!

[@sourlemon83]

this is hell on Earth if I've ever seen it

[@jrs0071]

Good work RFS. but at 4:30 min is a good reason for a colourbond fence instead of straw.

[@simone93xx]

Not an Ozzy but omg! I hope everyone stays safe this is insane!! Well done ladies and gents. Respect right there

[@damiengunston9816]

Awsome job.. well done guys I was part of Bmt Taskforce Initial responce Team WE Batlled our arses off but unfortunately lost the restaurant at Jimby Rinja resort and Five other buildings sometimes Even with a strike force of Catorgory one tankers you just cant beat mother nature...

[@terreyhills]

Absolutely; when you encounter pyrocumulous powered firestorms like that all that can be done is point asset protection. The fire has a mind of its own and the fact that there would have been 30 + tankers and pumpers from the RFS & F+R on scene we were never going to stop it.

[@paulheartsongs]

Amazing work, saving homes and lives!!

[@janetforrester4548]

Thank you so much. Please stay safe. And I hope you get a time to relax with your family over Christmas.

[@madadam81]

Thanks to the many real life heroes risking their lives to protect others.

[@Loxmyf]

Legends, one and all. Thank you.

[@RotorPrankster]

Absolute LEGENDS.

[@geza96]

A brush wood fence, great idea, there are properties I have worked on down hat hill that still elite these fences are ok. Well done guys.

[@TheTopMostDog]

This was a kick to the guts. We defended our house in 2009. I saw shit I never expected to see that day. I dunno how guys voluntarily put themselves in the face of this. Huge respect.

[@terreyhills]

I have the same feelings looking at the members of defence forces when they deploy - utmost respect and a feeling that I could never do what they do; but years of training and preparation and having a great crew to support is key.

[@kevinsloan3019]

wow great video shows how quick it can go from nothing to run like hell!!! great coordination nice save!!!

[@terreyhills]

Thanks 👍

[@funkypaulo]

Thank you for your continued efforts

[@Bracken2656]

Amazing footage well done

[@m00d_fm]

Those guys deserve every bit of that money and more, same with the RFS in other states. Nobody wants to be out there fighting that shit.

[@Akieth0]

Heroes. All of them.

[@arista.g]

Amazing. Thanks

[@cscollen]

Good work Terry hills 7, my only suggestion would be to have multiple hoses out and ready if you are setting up for property protection not just the ready reel! You faced the beast and came out on top! Well done ladies and gentlemen!

[@roberthuber8836]

Getting closer and closer to Dante's inferno every day. Jesus. Good luck out there, wish I could be flown out to help

[@gusugsugus]

holy fuck - god bless fellas. The whole nation want to see you come out the other end of this ok.

[@freecooks]

You guys and girls are absolute fucking heros!

[@terreyhills]

Just ordinary people, in some tough situations doing what we can.

[@travisj2370]

keep up the great work

[@smujohnson]

This is in NSW Australia, in case it wasn't clear to others.

Your my hero!

[@noelzy7839]

Great footage. What go-pro did you use ?

[@terreyhills]

It is a Hero 8 Black - throughout that fire season it really earnt its keep and whilst a little battle scared and melted still works perfectly and has been an awesome web cam for the last year in lockdown.

[@JackBaker954]

Bloody heroes

[@Devar]

Good work fellas

[@AltHistoria]

we left Blackheath as this was happening. Was a bad day

[@shmuliadelman1278]

Holy. Shit.

[@wonniewarrior]

Unbelievable how the same spot kept reigniting even after being doused many times before. If I may, at least in night can see fires easier the actual hotspots better in the dark, thought there is a greater risk I bet.

[@terreyhills]

That is one advantage of fighting fires in the dark, the embers which can cause so much damage are so much more visible.
