Into The Smoke Season 1 Episode 1 - Christiana House Fire

[@firedawg1075]

Great stop!! Be safe out there and keep doing what needs to be done! Thanks for sharing...

[@MedicMike772]

Well done. Can't wait for more. Nice stop.

[@wildebtw]

Great video, its about time that fire has some pov type show. Nice to not see a ton of keyboard heros going nuts on the comment board. Its easy to critique the situation sitting in clean air from your comfortable home. In some sitations it is necessary to not don a ba untill all the hose is laid in. Great editing, I hope to see more. -Alberta, Canada

Really nice work! Can't wait to see me!

[@PFDChaseVids]

Very good video for a first episode, you guys did great

[@ImLearningStuff]

Awesome video, guys! Keep up the good work and be safe!

[@seanm5809]

So much for property conservation, When the back sliding door was intact. Could have easily opened it. Instead of taking hook and playing baseball with the frame. Had plenty of other windows out. When were ladders used as battering rams to bust windows?? Wow

[@boycesnow569]

They started busting out glass when they figured out it was good for venting out the smoke??

[@stevenlubrino4707]

Always, always take out window frames, don't want a guy who is lost/disoriented to hit the frame and turn and go the other way, make the opening as big as possible, this is why he was swinging at the frame to dislodge from its base, and ladders have been used for venting for centuries,

Strong Work! Great Video.

[@TrialzGTAS]

I enjoyed this a lot!

[@TheFluffy1986]

nice stop ... But i have to ask Whats with the lack of PPE ??

[@steelerfrk]

Why don't you safety goo roos throw the NFPA Guideline Book and all your other safety books at the fire and tell me if it goes out. Leave the work to the guys that respect the craft and understand how it needs to be done. Great video and commentary. Looking forward to more in the future!

[@jordanthayer7599]

@7:47 what is up with ben afflecks helmet? that thing does NOT look safe to use... looks like shit my great grandpa used.

[@nkervmedia]

Jordan Thayer looks like a leather helmet to me. Leather can take a ton more abuse, and can last longer than a plastic helmet

[@bobbozzelli1865]

bad ass good work!!

[@bigcountry30662]

Why are most of the caps still on the bottles? Something is fishy or Im loosing it

[@daddytwostroke4453]

+FireRescue595 these are the new air-pak X3s that connect from the side facing the pack. the cap is on a cascade system slash RIT connection.

[@ajeschelweck362]

+Lunch Lady its mainly a fill port. The RIT connection is on the right side of the harness that has a quick connect. it has a 3 foot hose connected to the fitting and is stored in a pouch on the harness. The pack is a Scott NXG2 and has been around for a little over 10 years now.

[@SuperWally8]

Are u doing season 2 for into the smoke

[@smokeyNJ78]

Great Video. Be safe.

[@kyler5277]

[@spencershaw9554]

6:35 just take those easy flips off hahaha

[@johnrowbotham5054]

What’s your thoughts on the PPV fan. Do you use electric, so it’s not putting more CO in to the structure? Great vid stay safe all of you. 👍🏻

[@jacobkeppler1984]

Cool video 🚒🇺🇸

[@nethaneelhernandez9061]

Not a very good roof cut, cutting through the joist is a no no. I agree with just opening the sliding glass door.

[@JB91710]

Vertical Venting. No smoke showing in the second floor but they do it anyway. The holes he made in the ceiling were the size of quarters. This whole process risks fire fighters lives and accomplishes nothing.

[@nebraskaninkansas347]

Its an inspection hole. Cut to confirm if there was or wasn't extension into the attic. Just because there is no smoke in the 2nd floor, doesn't mean attic extension can't occur.

[@owensweetland342]

Walk. No need to run. Have gear completely on. Chiefs too. Take a moment prior to entry.

[@goldgold555]

Please make more!!!

[@jackangermeier2468]

did you guys notice from 0:38 to the rest of the time they were in the truck that the truck seatbelt system showed that only 2 guys in a full truck were wearing their seatbelt? wouldn't you think your officer would check that?

[@daddytwostroke4453]

+Jack Angermeier no, because rescue 12 operates in a little place we call "the real world"

[@mikegaskin5542]

+Lunch Lady I also live in the Real World and wearing my seatbelt has never inconvenienced me.

[@hiltzy]

Your scba works really well when its not even hooked up and the caps are still on the bottle. UNBELIEVABLE!!! seems like every dept in this county needs to go back to the fire academy and learn how to do the job. Oh yeah, that half ass melted helmet you wore into the training tower trying to melt looks real cool too..... complete fools.

[@ajeschelweck362]

+hfd88 What's UNBELIEVABLE is you obviously are not up to date on the current equipment in the industry. Which then would also lead me to the conclusion that you must not train that much either. I think you may need to go back to the academy for a few refresher courses of your own! IMO. The SCBAs this department uses are Scott's NXG2 model which have been out for a little over 10 years now. Those little caps you saw were covers for the fill port on the bottles, and the bottle connects directly into a first stage regulator on the harness through a quick attach/detach hook up. And that melted helmet hmmm.... This is a busy department that sees a lot of fire. Good job on the keyboard firefighting try....

[@alexanderhouston7315]

plaese do more of these

[@theodrake2394]

When you clearing the glass from the window are you not essentially allowing oxygen to potentially alter the environment within the structure? is this a necessary risk to create a point of egress?

[@IntoTheSmokeTV]

While opening up windows introduces oxygen it also allows for toxic and super heated gasses to escape from the structure. Venting windows should always be done in conjunction with a hoselone to "counter" the introduction of the oxygen to the fire.

[@K1ngDre-DMZ]

carrying the ladder incorrectly, not properly shaved, not preserving windows/property, un organized and no ppe while walking up to the scene to ask a question

[@jackangermeier9458]

Andre Morales these guys give times out of their day. This was. a morning call and they are volunteers. Maybe they were about to shave and the call came? We don't know the situation, so don't criticize. Being a volunteer myself, i have been in that situation many times. Also, maybe they get taught different ways to do things. everyone has their own way, and thats just how it is. the window busting? yeah i would've done that, and so would many departments. Maybe you wouldn't, again thats your thing. You do you, they'll do them

[@K1ngDre-DMZ]

Jack Angermeier so what you are telling me is a career firefighter doesn't give time? They don't shave or take showers and get calls and still have to rush to get into their gear and run? There are standards for National training and how to do things the correct way. If what you are telling me is "go ahead and do things the way you want" is okay, then that's how people get hurt and killed

[@jackangermeier9458]

Andre Morales I'm pretty sure these guys are all volunteer..

[@jackangermeier9458]

Andre Morales and yes there are NFPA standards, but many people (and i'm going to guess you don't know this either) don't know that NFPA is NOT required. They are suggestions.

[@tonypuntillo4931]

[@LCERRP]

whats the song called in the intro

[@rollingpillz]

Nailed it!? Smashed the place to shit before fire fighting more like. guy in a pair of jeans!! On the fire ground. All that was missing was the big top and circus music

[@derrickguffey4775]

If you don't like the video don't watch. No need for criticism or smartass comments. Are you a firefighter? A difficult and dangerous job these men and women do in saving lives and property,are you doing anything even remotely close?

[@BrandonHarper365]

what cameras do you guys use for this?

[@firechaser21]

will it be on tv

[@michaelcurrie8772]

When/if any of these cowboys go through a full-time professional academy the first thing they will learn is safety and wearing PPE. The fire got put out, but a lot of work to for these guys to get squared away. Yahoos with melted bourkes and helmets that were put in an over at 400 to look cool? Come on, lets not pretend. Literally first thing you learn first day at professional academy is NO running on the fireground. I've seen a couple of these videos and more to watch, my opinion is its a bunch of young and energetic guys trying to do the right thing, but trying to look cool is more important.

[@patrickhamilton5994]

+Michael Currie These guys are an extremely busy department, which is why they were chosen for this series. Although I agree with some of the things you wrote, I am sure they have different SOPs/have maybe unfortunately become a bit cavalier about their jobs. Stop hating on volunteers mr. I just went to an academy.

[@mikegaskin5542]

As a volunteer, I cringed at the way every window in the house was broken. It's unnecessary and counterproductive. If you ventilate thoughtfully and strategically, you can control the flow path and minimize damage - especially if you use a PPV fan.

[@greyman686]

Really? I bet one could do a search on here and find a video with full time folks running on a scene pretty easily. Come on, let's not pretend right?

[@JohnDoe-yq5bd]

1.fuck no running, if you have a fully involved structure. Fire you better move like someone’s life depends on it. 2. They can replace a door out of everything being destroyed by the fire a door will be the last thing a home owner cares about. 2. Only people that think it’s a good idea to put a ladder next to a window before you vent then reposition it are those that haven’t been to many of any fires. A ladder is a tool and taking a window out with the ladder allows. You to see conditions in that room before you’re face to face with it on a vulnerable ladder position. Is it the best option? No does it get the job done? Yes.

[@2401penetanttangent]

Intro music is so long by godshed eyes

[@Annnton17]

Everyone is a Monday-morning quarterback or a safety Sam. This department sees fire everyday and accidents with rescue every week. They can blow most departments out of the water.

[@owensweetland342]

Replace your Bourkes! Who you trying to impress?

[@Hoft119]

wow!!! ever heard of PPE!! or IC

[@FreemanWithrow]

Guys if your going to make a TV show on firefighting make sure everyone uses there PPE!!!! I'm a FF Of 10yrs and see way to many mistakes that will get someone hurt or killed...now with that said it's a great production and could be a great show but those mistakes cannot go on..

[@FreemanWithrow]

Acually as a 10yr "volly" we have all the same training as career Firefighters..I have trained many FF in my life and with a comment like that you seem like a couch FF...and the guys making this Vid are vollys as well...maybe you should just keep watching fire videos in your moms basement

[@stevedonaghey6436]

***** Disappointing.

[@pjblake1969]

Taylor Northrup There are systems set up so SCABS don't get hired. Why would any union man want to work with a guy that has been keeping their wages low ?

[@Bennyboy6993]

If anyone is a current or vet firefighter can you please tell me how to become on of the guys who actually goes into the burning buildings in case of a fire, I don't want to be one of the guys outside with a hose I want to go in. Should I get emt basic or intermediate to do so? What kind of college should I do? How many people in the department actually want to go into the buildings?

[@LCERRP]

This fire department is located in New Castle County Maryland. Almost all departments there will do things such as no scuba drive crazy and lots of other dangerous thing. That's how it works in that county and that's something that won't change.

[@chaseoaks3026]

What's the song in the intro?

[@curtispuckrin3074]

Where is the preservation of property?! Gotta love the guy trying to hit a home run swinging at the 3 inch patio door frame. As a full time firefighter I fully acknowledge the importance of volunteer firefighters to their communities, but this was a not an incident that unfolded as it should have. Yes the job got done, but ya thats all I am going to say. Ok, maybe one more thing.....lets set up PPV on a building that has as many holes as cheap swiss cheese......

[@Melodre]

That's horizontal ventilation. It prevents rapid expansion of the fire and helps suppression crews, plus if there were entrapments that would preserve life by pulling heat and smoke away from victims/firefighters.

[@MrKevinthelittle]

what's the point of breaking all the windows ?, i understand the ventilation aspect of it but isn't 2-3 windows more efektive on a guiding the smoke in one direction out of the building point of view? sry for the bad english . i'm from germany

[@ffmark94]

Fire fighter egress

[@RITirons]

I love the "seasoned" helmet on the guy from the truck co. What a clown! Training Center hero right there. At some point the light will come on and he will realize that no one buys that look. And is it the cool thing to do on camera to run through a yard carrying your scba and tools.

[@chiefwhammer6916]

Bad tactics boys. Check out the latest fire behavior research by Underwriters Laboratories. Search flowpaths and FDIC 13 here on youtube.

[@Mrgnothing1]

this just looks and is unorganized mess with no safety. also they seem to do more work than is necessary, eg, breaking every window instead of having people inside looking for people trapped.

is Christiana fd a career department of a volunteer department with live ins?

[@jackangermeier2468]

they run a paid crew, but they also have a volunteer truck too, so possibly live-in people, too.

[@jackangermeier2468]

never mind. completely volunteer. have enough live-in's to staff 1 rescue-engine, their ladder and an ambo. big department.

[@tah9191]

Jack Angermeier not completely volunteer. Combination company, we don't have live in volunteers. We have 8 career staff and part timers. The career staff supplement when volunteers aren't available. No home response either.

[@kylelonesky6192]

why even use the positive pressure fan???? there is no way possible the structure could have pressurized with all the windows and doors out....

[@gocoastgaurd721]

Kyle Lonesky Basically all positive pressure fan does is push a lot of air in to push a lot of smoke out.

[@kylelonesky6192]

+291xMac yea I get that. I'm a firefighter myself, but in order for it to work effectively, the building needs to pressurize in order to push the smoke out like its designed.

[@gocoastgaurd721]

Kyle Lonesky That does make sense, think they kind of helped with the hydro vent. But I do see how only having 2 openings would be more effective.

Everybody on here who has something to say about safety violations, please feel free to leave the safety vest on and stay in the street. There isn't any room for any of you safety keyboard commanders. Until you come ride or check the place out and the guys there, don't pass judgment. Recently at a fire that was more than likely a defensive attack to the safety world of firefighters, the guys pulled a victim from original fire apartment and saved him. We do what we do, and we do it quickly and effectively. Come on down and ride, get off the computer if you want to or feel the need to preach safety to us.

[@MrClod-we7mr]

dont run at fire area pls

[@drakesgrandkid7019]

you never go on the roof by your self you always go up with someone.

[@tonypuntillo4931]

Plus you have the right lenght pike pole.

[@owensweetland342]

What's up with the "no gloves" approach with the various crews, like the guy with the roof ladder breaking windows?

[@calaxlover18]

Why brake all the windows ? Is there really a need to completely destroy the house and add to the damage that's already been done? On the initial attack shouldn't you wait to completely ventilate as to not add fuel to the fire. As soon as the fire fighter broke the sliding door (which he just could have slid open) notice how much the smoke increases. Now I don't know how much of the fire was knocked down before they started complete ventilation, but you still don't need to go full force on the windows, or sliding doors. PS if you hit the corners of the frames they get knocked out more easily.

[@RayRayBeats]

They're men. They like breaking things.

[@TheDeebs77]

Windows are a source of egress, every window that has a ladder to it needs to be a door but for the sliding door i think it was just for easier access

[@jackangermeier2468]

TheDeeds77 true, but they had also started suppression of the initial attack at that point. most was steam.

[@jackangermeier2468]

plus, smoke is the feed for fire.

[@gocoastgaurd721]

Taylor Northrup The increase in smoke came from breaking the window. My pet peeve with this op was the lack some people with packs on. (i.e. guy on the roof) and how some didn't have their straps fully tightened or on, (Guy with waist strap off coming through the door) and how some weren't fully geared up upon arrival (not talking officers and chauffeurs here, just fire fighters). I agree, fire fighter damage should be kept to a minimum, but if you look the areas where the doors and windows were fully broken were already burned.

[@heavyhitta52]

I guess masks are over rated. Lol. Why even wear a tank? Not strapped either. Hey. You do what you want it's your career

[@andrewreed2668]

Reading these comments just amazes me. Every one of you FF's are on here trying to brag about how you go to more fires and you're better than everyone else. Listen, I hate fires. That is someone's house. Their entire LIFE that could be burning. It pisses me off to no end to hear guys talk about how they hope they get a "good" fire. None of them are good! Our job is to get there, and save lives and save what we can of these peoples possessions, and do it safely so we can go home to our families. It seems like so many of these departments in MD and DE especially just want to go to fires for fun and they think it makes their @&$! look bigger because they are so aggressive. Well to me it makes you look like an idiot. There's a reason there are so many FF injuries in these areas. Slow down and think guys, you're being wreck less, careless, irresponsible, and you're doing a disservice to yourself and especially your family. This young generation of FF's needs such an attitude adjustment..

[@MrTJSpicer]
