Unfortunately, I disagree with the speed that the driver used to lay in that feed line. If for some reason that line would have become tangled, the feed would have taken much longer to establish. In this case it worked out well, but this is not a drag race. Just my thoughts. They, however, overcame MANY obstacles to contain/extinguish that fire.
@@edloeffler9769 you say it's not a drag race but wow the amount of fire vids i've seen where a crew takes ONE WHOLE MINUTE from the time the alarm sounds till the time they are literally out the door and you should see the bad comments... folks are ripping the crew apart for "taking to long" or "dragging their feet"... i think the public appreciates the all out hustle and maximum effort in this situation... there are too many vids of fire crews being UNFAIRLY criticized for their lack of effort or moving too slow... well, i suppose i'd rather be criticized for being TOO FAST than for being too slow
Great job everyone who responded to this fire and it brings back memories when I was a volunteer firefighter for St.Helens and how things change since I was a volunteer firefighter.
This was an awesome catch. No lame focusing on the engine for a minute and a half, it made you feel as if you were right there on scene, got the blood pumping awesome catch thank you!
Strong, fast, proffesional work! GREAT JOB LAFD!. a few non-kosher things I noticed . E68 has a ghost FF. in the early part of vid the Capt and Engineer are seen hustling. Engineer E68 pulled two side hose lines (stingers?) and streched the to the fire. He ran back to the hydrant supply? to turn on supply line. The supply line was not charged. The capt. was going back and forth abd eventually picked up a hand line himself. WHERE TF IS THE FIREFIGHTER!! THER IS A FLEETING MOMENT WHERE THE FF IS SEEN AT 0:37-0:40 BUT NEVER AGAIN
What are the differences between the first arrival engine and the second one? They look different. The first one has draft hoses on the side and the second one does not.
Sometimes I really think we are pretty smart people but then I see things like the Amazon Van just park there knowing damn well the fire department is going to block you in for at least a couple of hours and you didn't attempt to move the van so you know you can continue to do your job. Smh.... Oh yeah great video on the pre arrivals keep up the good work.
They could have been returning back to their first-in district, from a drill or a non firefighting assignment. Captains don’t dress when supervising at a drill…
Why does lafd always arrive without their gear on? You can always take it off but it takes time to put on. And then you always watch guys laying line and looking around for someone in gear to do something with it
I can't speak specifically to LAFD's policies, but some departments are moving to a "don your gear at the last minute" approach based on the idea that turnout gets contaminated by carcinogens through usage, and the more time you spend in your gear, the more you are exposed to left-over contaminants from previous fires, etc. And they don't want gear in the cab of the truck for the same reason - you don't want miscellaneous contaminants leaching out into the interior of the truck and exposing everybody who rides on the rig, on every single call. It's part of the whole "clean cab concept" stuff that's en vogue these days. Now again, I don't know for sure that that's the deal with LAFD. I'm from the opposite side of the country and have no connection to LAFD at all. But I strongly suspect that that's at least part of the reason.
That Officer off of T94 should slow down on the meth pipe en route to the call! Stop screaming at everyone and for god sakes no mask on when u charged in? Lol! U go Nancy!
Wow , this is supposed to be a prestigious department? Some of them running around like chickens with their heads cut off . So much for leaving the front open for a ladder truck . Captain Marquez acting like this is his first fire ( guess air paks were optional at his first fire )
Threaded LDH is extremely common throughout the US, as most hydrants accept a threaded coupling without the need for an additional adapter. Its rare to see any type of storz style quick-connect here.
@@Nervegas - not sure what part of the country you're from but from what I've seen here (NC) most LDH is use Storz couplings, with an adapter for the hydrant end. And more and more hydrants are showing up with the Storz coupling "native" on the steamer port. The only threaded LDH you usually see around here would be something like a short "pony" section that's carried in the engineer's compartment for those cases where the hydrant winds up 10 feet from the truck. We used to carry a section like that, that as threaded. But even then, I think we only had it because it was donated to us by another department. If we 'd bought a section just for that purpose it probably would have been Storz coupled...
The hose rolling out of the compartment with the truck driving was awesome! Nice catch.

There’s an art for it to NEVER kink.. I was an LAFD Cadet and witnessed the incredible art behind how it unloads and is carefully loaded back !
That's probably the fastest lay-in I've seen, great footage!
Taking the hydrant that was right in front of the fire would have been faster.
Those firefighters hustled and the neighbors were trying to help. Good job by all.
That's what I noticed tool. Everyone hustling. Nice to see in these times.
man the engineer on the first engine hes spot on! good work!

Wow those firefighters really know how to hustle. Great job and great video.
Great work by americas finest firefighters.
The FF from truck 94 with 2 saws and 2 hooks! Priceless!!!! 💪👏👏👏
These guys showed a lot of hustle.👍👍
Damn, that was a super fast forward lay

I wonder how old that Seagrave Engine is. It’s in great shape!
Excellent catch😀👍👍 very nice audio, & video footage as well!!!!! Thanks for the video, & the channel. Keep up the good work.
What are the differences between the first arrival engine and the second one? They look different. The first one has draft hoses on the side and the second one does not.
The difference is make and model. The first engine is an older Seagrave engine (usually used in reserve) and the second is a newer model KME engine.
Great early arrival vid. Big thanks for No play by play interruption. The vid speaks for itself.
Great camera work, super action shots....thanks for sharing.
i remember hearing E46 say they were in the area. truly surprised to hear "press enroute" from metro haha. nice coverage bro! strong work from 68s.
46's boot looks pretty hot
That driver had that LDH flying off !!

3:15 capt should be dressed out already, come on man. Clean cab is one thing (dumb), but damn put your bunker gear on the way in
Getting cancer is dumb?
They could have been returning back to their first-in district, from a drill or a non firefighting assignment. Captains don’t dress when supervising at a drill…
Ha, sucks they missed the hydrant right next to the engine or they wouldn’t have had to lay in all that hose
Giving them too much credit
Nice to see a proper forward lay
Amazing Footage, What is the Hazmat Unit used for?
It's always sent in structure fires when these types of conditions on fires exist
If is usually used to contain runoff
The guy with the sunglasses & the guy in grey.👍👍👍
He looks like Jeffrey Donovan

It is called clean cab concept. Keep the cancer causing chemicals out of the cab area….turnouts can be laundered (at the station) hard gear cannot…
Love the sound of the pump she working very hard.
46s made it all the way to mid-city? Must have been a busy day for everyone else.
100% correct . Looks like 46’s 94’s , 58’s we’re nearest AV units
...this is a"CLASS 1" Department.... ? wow.
Great video btw
I guess 46s doesn’t need PPEs
New style helmets???
Amazon going to make that delivery no matter what 🤣
several minutes on scene and still just one engine? Go LAFD lol
Look up -structure fire in Korea town. Great show of resources from LAFD
🚒💨
I would've taken the line from the the guy who said go get me a breather..come off the piece ready you clown
46’s in Mid City? Lol nice footage
Yup they added themselves when they saw the loom up when they were headed back to their district from a follow up to Cedars-Sinai

When’d they do away with their “west coast” helmets??
🇧🇷 👉 😔
Why don't car owners remove them when a residential or commercial establishment is on fire?
Old school job shirt?
The Driver Needs to slow down a bit when laying the 5 inch he could loosen the fitting..
Looks like a stortz those take a lot to disconnect
It’s 4 inch and he is laying it just fine…
A little low on ppe on this one.
Good but less editing and more raw video would help understand the fire and scene better.
Of course LA would have to females on a crew
Civilians deploying the green lines! 🤣🤣
46 don’t believe in turnouts or what?
They responded via line of sight after some administrative duty. So not a typical call out.
Prob coming from a medical.
selalu begini, mana kamera dari helm petugasnya, lagi semprot air terutama, jadi membosankan
I can see why they catch cancer, nobody had on a mask, just breathing in all the toxic chemicals
The female FF mmmmmm 😋
You're 🤮🤮🤮
Sad to see the CLOWN helmets !
You notice nobody is wearing them (unless they have to) because they are so damn heavy.
tell the engineer to quit running around then put a helmet on. he already looks bad ass with the shades. the wedge haircut will be fine.
Is LAFD going backwards? Threaded LDH? I guess that the purchaser was acting on Chiefs orders?
Threaded LDH is extremely common throughout the US, as most hydrants accept a threaded coupling without the need for an additional adapter. Its rare to see any type of storz style quick-connect here.
