    That soot line you pointed out is actually the heat line too. The air was hot enough to damage the sheetrock/paint. The temperature at the floor was probably less than 200 degrees while at that heat line it was probably between 600-1000 degrees. The house held up great considering because of the materials used and how its built. That's what we call a legacy structure in the fire service. A house built today would have been on the ground. Looks like the Fire Department did a great job though. Always make sure you have working smoke detectors in your home. In a house like this one you have around 7 minutes to get out, in today's homes you have about 3. Everyone stay safe.

    Sad anytime someone suffers a catastrophic fire. The 2 worst losses are fire damage and then storm flood water damage. The sentimental part is devasting to the owner/occupant and the cleanup
    costs are huge. It's very fortunate everyone was able to escape this tragedy and no one was injured. As a retired IAFF firefighter, I commend the crew that fought that fire and minimized the damage!
    Very professional takedown Mike, the lot was tight but, you planned it, and executed the takedown without a hitch. 2 thumbs up from here brother. Great narration too.
    The drone shots added tremendous scope to the size of the lot and the volume of debris the building generated. If you have additional footage of this job, please share it with us!
    Work safe, see ya on the next 1

    Nice stop by the local FD. Fire damage didnt seem to extensive actually. The smoke/heat line here is exactly why we teach people to stay low, ourselves included. The temperature and visibility difference from floor to ceiling is DRAMATIC.
    Cool demo video by the way.

    This was years ago. We got a knock at the door and they were turned around and told us that we had 6 foot flames coming out over chimney and my mom yelled for me to get up and I got up and come downstairs and I said what’s wrong. She just got a fire going Fire department the chimney was not attached or I would’ve been here but we use the shimming week logs and the fire department says don’t even cuss so don’t work, but I understand from the farm Marshall that a chimney had never been cleaned and we bought the house. It was winter there and you’re very lucky.

      Really professional job I did admit I did cry when the house was torn down in my eyes it could have been saved and repaired but I'm no home expert and it could have loads of things wrong with it I respect the owners decision and I hope that they make more new memories for their families. Let's hope in the future fires can be prevented and all electrics safer to use and also gas too. I too been in two house fires years apart they do have a devastating impact on people.

    Far too many homes burn down because of faults within the electrical wiring of the building [power cables getting hot without fuses tripping]Also sometimes fan heaters are sold that draw 10 amps whilst being equipped with power cables fit only for 5 amps continuous use [ie 10 amps intermittent use-a recepie for trouble if cable is over stressed]Since my mother's house burned down [electrical fault] I now operate electrical appliences on an "eyes on" basis-no to fridges/freezers /standby mode etc etc.
