That car was so happy when it saw the fire department... set off a mini fireworks display and everything

[@sabbathfan1969]

Excellent catch 😀👍👍 especially with the sparks show!!!!! Thanks for the video & the channel!!!! Keep up the good work!!!!!

[@brianbrown826]

What a good idea to use the kerb stone to slow the circular saw to a stop!

[@katzgar]

there is a concept called a sense of urgency, these guys need to learn it.

[@stlpaulie]

To what end? The car was already totaled. Nothing they could have done would have changed that. You can try and say there might have been someone in the passenger compartment but if there had been they would have already have been dead. Rushing around wouldn’t have changed the final outcome, but it might have gotten them injured.

Great video!

Nice catch

[@southlafirephotography]

Nice!

[@jmWhyMe]

Absolutely inexcusable that the K12 was so hard to start. That is lack of maintenance

[@thumperjdm]

Yup. Isn't that K12 supposed to be started/tested daily, to ensure it's functioning properly?

@@thumperjdm sure is.

Wondering about the poor white car behind the fire car Close to the body shop..

[@ronaldking2619]

No SCBA or eye protection when using the saw. Great way to have a short career.

Have you guys got a Tesla on fire yet? How's that play out? I'd like to see that situation. Great vid

Be the change you want to se in the world.

[@scottrobinson3353]

Why are vehicles even parked that close to each other 🤦🏻‍♂️

lt LA

[@thevillage38]

Half the fires in LA are homeless encampments, average 24 a day What a city!

[@jerryupp9387]

These fire fighters need to practice on moving faster to put water onto a fire. When my 76 year old dad was alive he could move 10 times faster than you all

[@user-dt5vv7lv2l]

Just respect all the firefighters!!!

[@timothyreed8417]

The car was toast by the time the firefighters showed up. There were no exposures to worry about. Can you name a faster department? Have videos?

[@oxygen7955]

Nice!
