[@IowaGrandpaTrain]

Hey, saw your video on ABC national news tonight. Congratulations and I hope they paid you well for it!

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

YES INDEED AND THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@donarmstrong5872]

@@THEMAJESTIRIUM1 I noted that on the news they said one fireman was seriously injured. I figured it was the one that took a tumble when the hose slipped and started flaying around.

[@thomaswyile5168]

Very sad to see one of the holiday markets destroyed by fire 🙏🏻 Thank you for the quick response and great video John!! Stay safe and I hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday!! 🌲

[@jimwilson5338]

Only a small part was destroyed by the fire, the rest was destroyed by the FDNY

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

YOUR WELCOME AND I AGREE....VERY SAD INDEED.....THANKS SO MUCH, MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR.....

[@JG-gj9vh]

Great coverage as always brother. Merry Christmas to you n your family.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

THANKS SO MUCH.....AND OF COURSE MERRY CHRISTMAS.....

[@esmeesme7666]

What a mess! So sad. Hope clean up will be soon. Thanks for catching this call, John. A most HAPPY CHRISTMAS to YOU! 🌲❣️

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

YES, THEY ARE STARTING FIX IT ALREADY I HEARD ON THE NEWS......IT WAS SAD INDEED.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@songmansteve]

You never a beat! great video as always. Stay safe...and warm.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

WELL, THAT MEANS A LOT TO ME AND OF COURSE THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@GunillaRasmusson]

So sad! This should be a time of joy! Watching this in Sweden (time 16.40) Same weather here! --- Hope they could continue the market.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

YES, IT IS SAD AND YES THEY ARE FIXING THE MARKET BACK UP RIGHT AWAY I HEARD.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@joelittman-m1o]

what’s said is what happened to Sweden

[@lukenshazard127]

It still kinda amazes me that FDNY allows civilians in the area to “manage their own risk”…….I think I like it.

[@hngbones]

It's public property so they have no authority to tell people what to do. It's at there own risk though!!!

[@thomaswyile5168]

⁠@@hngbonesthey absolutely have authority to ask the general public to leave the area etc. if a true danger exists 👍🏻

[@ScannermanFDNY]

JJ is well known in the FDNY…and is in Chief leebs book…He is given access He is one of us. He has captured many things that are used in FDNY training…Bob

[@ScannermanFDNY]

JJ great job! 🎉

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

OK.....BUT IN PUBLIC ANOYONE CAN FILM.....YOU JUST HAVE TO STAY OUT OF THE WAY.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@prestonm.64]

Nice Crown Vic John! Great video as always. What an unfortunate situation

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

MOST KIND OF YOU AND OF COURSE THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@hopeindarktimes]

It's truly amazing how much water is needed to quench fire. Fire truly has a never-ending appetite.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

YES, IT REQUIRES LOTS OF WATER INDEED.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@RogerRischawy]

Saw this video on the NYC TV news tonight. Some of the booths have reopened. Nice coverage by a skilled filmmaker.

[@robertschwartzman195]

JJ Thanks for the video. What I have a problem is the FD not using a FLIR instead of tearing canapies apart to find fires or hot spots.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

I HEAR YA ROBERT BUT SOMETIMES THEY DO THINGS DIFFERENTLY.....OF COURSE THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@mikel9567]

They did use the TIC. Had you paid attention to the video you would see them use it. Opening up the remaining units had more to do with victim search as well as check for other sources of ignition. Neither one of those would necessarily show up on a TIC.

[@sherristonenyc]

They're looking for bodies and propane tanks.

[@kennykolourinc1250]

great coverage John as always…you were right in the middle of it thanks

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

I TRY TO ALWAYS GET THE BEST FOOTAGE WHEN POSSIBLE FOR YOU ALL.....THANKS SO MUCH KENNY.....

[@MPWEST83]

Very unfortunate that this happened, but as always the FDNY kicked butt. Thank you so much JJ❤

[@ad-dx9gi]

Thanks JJ be save out there!!!.. Great job FDNY..God bless all the Members..

[@nancybrock510]

OMG, thats a horrible fire, sometimes my fear level for you goes way up but i remind myself, you would NEVER risk your saftey, thanks so much for doing what you do to keep us all informed, stay safe and warm, thank you!

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

YOU ARE RIGHT AND MOST WELCOMED.....THANKS SO MUCH NANCY.....

[@micahgoodreau]

saw your clip on ABC nightly news!!!

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

YES INDEED AND THANKS SO MUCH MICAH.....

[@bobandvirginiaravera4775]

Missed the ABC News here in the Shenandoah Valley of VA.. However this an amazing video, JJ! When you think of all the possible scenarios the FDNY has to deal with, I could not have imagined this!! So close to Macy's!!! Great catch!! I was just thinking "What a Mess" and you just said it on the video. It is so sad there are so many crazies out there, I hope this was not a deliberate act.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

I TOTALLY AGREE.....IT COULD HAVE BEEN A LOT WORST FOR SURE.....THEY DID A GREAT KNOCK DOWN INDEED.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@johndavis6119]

Great video John. Looks like a bunch of outdoor vendors who set up a food court for all the shoppers. This is quite a mess. I sure hope no death batteries were involved. Stay warm up there.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

WELL, I AGREE JOHN.....IT IS VERY SAD ESPECIALLY AT THIS TIME OF THE YEAR TO SEE THESE TYPE OF FIRES.....LOTS OF LOST REVENUE FOR SURE.....SO FAR THEY HAVE NOT MENTIONED THE BATTERIES AGAIN.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@skimmer8774]

Looks like they did a fantastic job knocking this down as quickly as they did. Great video as always.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

YES INDEED.....I AGREE....AS ALWAYS THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@richleeson2160]

Different story if those propane tanks had gone up, great job by the FDNY, not knowing if there was propane in the stalls, not good for the stall owners at this time of year, great job John stay safe pal

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

I TOTALLY AGREE RICH.....IT COULD HAVE BEEN WORSE FOR SURE AND SAD TO SEE AT THIS TIME OF THE YEAR ESPECIALLY.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@Cashcrop54]

[@patbarlen2764]

Ty JJ, what a shame. Fires anytime are awful, but the Christmas ones are so sad. I may have ask you before, but who is responsible for the cleanup?

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

WELL, I AM NOT SURE IN THIS CASE BUT PROBABLY THE MARKET MANAGERS TEAM.....IT IS SAD TO SEE THESE FIRES ESPECIALLY AT THIS TIME OF THE YEAR.....THANKS SO MUCH PAT.....

[@genewhite7566]

Great Job filming and by FDNY. What were the FF doing to the propane tanks that were puled out?

[@AlGenovese813]

10-70 also could also be a long stretch. Some of the huts were blocking hydrants. On the news, they said they have insurance.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

YES INDEED IT COULD AL.....I HAVE NOT FOUND WHAT THE ISSUE WAS BUT IT COULD MANY.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@AlGenovese813]

@THEMAJESTIRIUM1 Marshall's just said faulty wiring. Electrical problem.

[@stevewolf9211]

Great video as always John. Thanks

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

YOUR WELCOME AND THANKS SO MUCH STEVE.....

[@rspearsonyt]

thanks JJ, a sad occurrence for the many vendors who had booths there, many who did not have insurance on the homemade products they had for sale 👎 Merry Christmas JJ 🌲🙏

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

I TOTALLY AGREE.....TERRIBLE ESPECIALLY AT THIS TIME OF THE YEAR.....THANKS SO MUCH.....MERRY CHRISTMAS.....

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

I TOTALL AGREE MAUREEN.....THEY ARE SMALL BUSINESSES THAT CAN NOT AFFORD A DISASTERS SUCH AS THIS.....THEY ARE WORKING TO GET BACK UP AND RUNNING ALREADY.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@johndean5251]

Great Job

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

AS ALWAYS, THANKS SO MUCH JOHN.....

[@caroleknappsmith9010]

It is my understanding that as long as people are not in the immediate area, and they are familiar to the FDNY, and do not interfere with the performance with their fire fighting, they are not hasseled. I know that this channel and Skylerfire are well known to the FDNY and well respected. All the coverage we see is in close up, and in no way interferes with the fire fighting. I feel so sorry for the people who lost their huts. It is surely heartbreaking for them. Great knockdown by the FDNY, or it could have been so much worse. Blessings to each and every member. Thank you John for your great work. Best coverage, as always. Blessings to you, sir. ❤❤🚒🚒❤❤

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

YOU ARE RIGHT CAROLE AND OF COURSE AS ALWAYS THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE KIND WORDS AND SUPPORT.....

[@jose.davidvilafane1942]

Thank you good video

[@barryperri6629]

You must have been in Manhattan, I know you hang in my beloved Bronx. Thanks for an enjoyable video.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

YOUR WELCOME AND THANKS SO MUCH RICHARD.....

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

I WAS IN THE BRONX ALL NIGHT AND IT WAS RAINING TERRIBLY.....I WENT HOPE AND WAS JUST GETTING TO GO TO SLEEP WHEN IT CAME IN AND I RAN TO THE CAR IMMEDIATELY.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@jeanohlerkingflower7284]

What a sad mess. Too bad for the water issue--might have been a different ending. But also could have been a worse thing if it weren't for the amazing work of the firefighters. Looks like everything was extremely combustible. Yikes. I appreciate the thoroughness of these heroes as they search the smallest corners for the possibility of a spark somewhere that could reignite and cause a worse mess. Thank you for your faithful video work at all hours in all kinds of weather.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

YOUR WELCOME AND I AGREE ON THE GREAT WORK OF THE FDNY.....THANKS SO MUCH JEAN.....

[@FernandoZavalaTAT]

The Grinch put in overtime last night, between the fire, the hydrant/water pressure issues, and the possibility of a battery being involved. Glad nobody was hurt 🙏

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

MAYBE IT WAS THE GRINCH FERNANDO.....HAHAHA.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@jamesdunn8893]

Merry Christmas

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

THANKS SO MUCH.....AND MERRY CHRISTMAS JAMES.....

[@thomasfreeman7770]

Like I have said in the past I’m surprised that FDNY administration has not been able to convince politicians not to allow this. Poorly built wooden structures in close proximity. Many with cooking going on. Street blocked off by the structures and gates. What a recipe for disaster.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

I HEAR YA AND TOTALLY AGREE.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@bardownbender40]

how are you able to get get so close to these fires with the FDNY members

[@rolfsinkgraven]

A big mess, hope your favorite snack place was not burned down John, bad weather too film in wow.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

NO, I NEVER ATE THERE BUT THANKS SO MUCH ROLF.....

[@WitchidWitchid]

Maybe that charcoal grill thing caused to fire. Maybe it was smouldering.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

YES, I WAS THINKING THAT BUT THEY ARE INVESTIGATING NONE THE LESS.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@michaelkuck9335]

Would you give a short Note about the final result what happend to start the Fire? 😮

[@glennn7438]

ABC creds Saw your video on news

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

YES INDEED GLEN AND THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@lukenshazard127]

Wow, lots of propane bottles!

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

YES.....

[@lsackman1]

John what ever happened to the fire truck that went in to the park

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

I HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING ELSE OTHER THAN IT IS GETTING REPAIRED.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@graceangel5146]

I know what a hard loss this is. The local market where I live is currently my only source of income. I can’t imagine what I would do in that situation. I hope they can rebuild quickly.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

YES, IT WAS A VERY SAD INDEED.....THANK GOODNESS THEY ARE REPAIR THE LOST STALLS ALREADY TO GET BACK TO BUSINESS.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@keithnichols7926]

If the fire doesn't destroy your booth, FDNY will. Seems to me the troops were a bit over-zealous here. The booths had curtain closures that enabled easy entry. No need to rip them open.

[@19irving]

I noticed that, too. They didn't have to throw the benches. Aren't they supposed to help SAVE lives and property?

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

WELL, THEY DID WHAT THEY HAD TO DO.....PERIOD.....

[@jimwilson5338]

It's because there were no windows to smash out, they love to smash as many windows as they can...

[@LegioXIVGemina]

Those plastic drapes were pretty tough though. I was waiting for the circular saws to come out.

[@dawnm1292]

Don't ever criticize our FDNY they did what they had to do to keep that fire from spreading

[@stephenhusak6098]

Damn JJ any closer and you would have been on the hoseline .

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

HAHAHA.....IT SEEMS LIKE THAT AT TIMES BUT I HEAR YA STEPHEN.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@judenew7977]

How awful for the vendors who had those specific huts

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

I TOTALLY AGREE.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@ExcrementalDisplay]

The fire is awful close to one of those propane heaters.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

YES, THEY WERE VERY CLOSE INDEED.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@gaborandrejszki2553]

Really sad situation! :(

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

I AGREE GABOR AND THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@MusicLoverPearson]

Looks like arson to me the grinch who stole Christmas did it

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

THEY ARE INVESTIGATING TO FIND THE CAUSE.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@johnhoran9063]

Thankfully the propane tanks didn’t go off on them while being so close…

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

I AGREE JOHN.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@johngoglia-gh7ql]

[@MARKLOCKWOOD2012]

willy nilly not built to fire code i guess why it went up. hopefully some scrooge didn’t set it on purpose.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

WELL, THEY ARE INVESTIGATING IT AND YES THERE SEEM TO BE SOME FIRE CODE VIOLATIONS INDEED.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@RichardMcGuire-ik6fl]

Great video, a few items in this mess could have been a lot trouble. FDNY did a good job. Stay well

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

I TOTALLY AGREE RICHARD.....OF COURSE AS ALWAYS THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@ceskgalaxycreations2751]

I don't understand why most of the fire men are just standing around watching 1 person put out the fire, is this like the new construction job? take as long as you can to do 1 thing.... then take lunch, then sit around and watch 1 person do their job? Explain please

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

THE FIREFIGHTERS YOU SEE STANDING ARE WAITING THIER ROTATION TO FIGHT THE FIRE AND TO RELIEVE THE OTHER MEMBERS CURRENTLY WORKING THE FIRE.....NO ONE IS JUST STANDING AROUND DOING NOTHING I ASSURE YOU.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@peacockgrandma]

Thanks John what a mess to clean up. Those poor vendor's.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

YES INDEED ON BOTH YOUR POINT AND YOU ARE WELCOME.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@joanfether8749]

Lots of money and damage loss. Someone didn't close up shop the right way.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

YES VERY SAD INDEED AND PERHAPS SOMETHING MAY HAVE BEEN LEFT ON.....THE ARE INVESTIGATING TO FIND THE CAUSE.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@michelestrassburg9424]

I have asked "when, not if" a fire will occur. Space heaters, plastic chairs and plants surrounded by plywood. Hmmm, at least the FF's are going to be well employed for some time. Sad to watch such a waste of talent due to others irresponsibility.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

I HEAR YA AND UNDERSTAND MICHELE.....THANKS SO MUCH.....

[@jbrat4313]

Thanks, stay warm, it's brick up there.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

[@marcopstal9584]

A couple of FF wearing their SCBA. All othrs probably think their immune to smoke and all toxic fumes.

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

OK.

[@scotto3826]

It's that magic smoke that's not toxic because it's "outside".

[@Biscuit-un6cf]

THE HOMELESS PEOPLE ARE GOING TO GO SHOPPING THERE SOON AS THE FDNY LEAVES 😂😂😂😂

[@THEMAJESTIRIUM1]

NO, THE POLICE SECURED THE AREA IMMEDIATELY.....THANKS SO MUCH.....
