*MAJOR INCIDENT* - Holborn Electrical Fire 01/04/2015

[@vinnymanone]

Saw this on the news yesterday and thought to myself 'I wonder if anyone will get photos/videos', Damn ! This is way better than I could have hoped to see, truly amazing stuff mate ! Love it, 10/10 :)

[@CobraEmergency]

I'm to blame, I spent 2 hours nagging him to go :P

[@ViperUK]

CobraEmergencyVideos hey, no one nagged me, just needed some help deciding ;)

[@CobraEmergency]

Aha okay :P

[@vinnymanone]

IGradeVideos Great decision, whoever decided ;)

[@CobraEmergency]

Epic on-scene video mate ;). Aha I forced you to go, and you got all this! :P Love the capture of both the fire scene, up close there with that unmarked fire officer's BMW - that was epic. Then the rest of the scene with all the vehicles such as the CSV/HART vehicles as well as all the fire vehicles like the command unit with its command lighting flashing! Lots of small charred holes as well, spewing out smoke! Woweeee you got that rare BFU unit onscene and leaving! Only if it used its blues and sirens! =D Awesome with those huge container trucks being escorted in, but damn that idiot for getting in the way and all the other idiots that got in the way! God some people - and that one man with a hat who just 'walks' casually in front of these huge container trucks as they're moving! Good video mate ;)

[@ViperUK]

CobraEmergencyVideos Thank you! Hey you didn't force me, just encouraged ;) Was lucky to get what I could since the incident was on-going so cordons were changing, vehicles were coming etc...

[@helenclark2247]

+IGradeVideos you mean thankyou

[@catlover4971]

Too much zooming, if you do that you need to hold your camera steady

[@captainahvong2247]

It's quite hard for anyone, as they would be in a dangerous situation and something could happen, so they can't exactly be perfect.

[@romk.m.1081]

At 4:12 an interesting warning sign for cyclists at the left on the back of the fire engine. I cann't read exactly what are the two words written at the bottom of the bike mark, but I believe it should be something like "no grip to the pole", as some adventurous cyclists would do, am I right?

[@jacobchurch3282]

It said stay back

[@weeardguy]

I really get the feeling that clinging on to firetrucks is really something that happens/happened in the US only... I have never seen it in Europe nor have I ever heard someone talk about doing something like it.

[@darrenvoysey6913]

often stay in or around holborn,...usually the only worries are taxis, because if they don't take a fare, they don't care...esp around aldwych

[@LucianAndreiREV]

Awesome on scene video! I saw that on the news this morning.

[@ViperUK]

LucianVideoEEV Thank you! Sounds like this incident went global. It will be at least a few more days until it's fully under control.

[@chris-jb5ds]

Wasn't this the same day of the Hatton garden robbery.
