Outstanding job! From the time the rig stopped to water on the fire…. 45 seconds. The first firefighter off the rig was masked up and ready to rock n roll. Kudos to the crew of engine 3 👍🏻
Tulsa Fire department kicks butt. We have an amazing team of firefighters who jump into action quickly and efficiently. Most fires are out or under control within minutes of their arrival.
Tulsa Firefighters, you are a role model for emergency services in the United States. You are always quick to attack and always dressed with the protection you should have in this environment. When you see the rest of the firefighters in the US who are relaxed and lethargic, Tulsa would be the place I would settle in if I moved to America considering the security you have as a resident with this magnificent rescue service you have in the city. Hats off to Tulsa Emergency Services!
Kinda sad to see such a fast, aggressive attack negated by a fully preventable burn-through. Between 1:00 and 1:25, both the chauffeur and officer watch the nozzleman drag the line through the flames, even helping feed it toward the door, and no one goes "hey, hit that spot behind you"? Glad no one was hurt.
It was a very good attack with that exception! You should never go past the fire unless a second back up line is in service to take care of those spot fires. Good job other wise!! Remember that equipment the taxpayers buy for us is not cheap we have a responsibility to maintain and care for it.
Fully Suited on arrival, water in 59 seconds! But I don't understand walking by ground fire and dragging your line through it when it could have been snuffed in two or three seconds. Appears the line ruptured as well.
Agree with you Jim. Quick water and nice stop. Also wondered about the walking thru - when a narrow Fog-pattern could have been used on the Side A exposure & subsequent Attack.
TFD rocks! Out of all the videos on TH-cam they are the most aggressive to get water on the 🔥! From the driver to the ff etc. Hats off to the Tulsa Fire dept.
If I could I’d move to Tulsa and join that department! In every video I’ve seen from there they are prepared and go right to work with no hesitation. I’d be proud to be a Tulsa firefighter.
OMG! These guys are from another planet! Water on the fire fast, already wearing PPE getting out of the engine, using the onboard water rather than pulling 2 miles of 5 inc LDH…The second engine even used the garden hose…On the bad side, I still think everybody should wear gloves and eyes protection.Refreshing anyhow!
I have the feeling they made a training with european fire figthers. Exactly like this they work here in Germany or Nederlands. Fire Fighters prepare themselves during the ride to the fire and they use the onboard tank for the first attack. During this time the other fire fighters try to establish a permanent water supply from hydrant. Realy good job and you can see, that it is all about training and preparation. Ok, the burned hose is a small thing wich they sould improve next time. 😊
Saw that burn through on the first attack line before the nozzle man even opened the pipe! 30 seconds of ground sweep would've prevented that and saved a couple hundred bucks. It isn't like they were going to save the structure lol!
In my opinion, this was a single-line fire. Nothing really to save, the only exposure was the power lines. I agree that since there was no real urgency in fire extinguishment, the ground fire should not have been missed. A learning experience.
Quickest and most effective response I have seen, even if just a shed fire. These guys were togged up ready and worked as a well coordinated team, no pussy footing around. Be safe.
These guys are on it and get the line charged fast. I swear I've seen several other videos where it's like the union requires a 10 minute break before starting water.
If I failed to protect my line like that, I'd be washing undercarriages and rebuilding pump seals for the next two months. Otherwise, that was a darn good (and fast!) deployment and knock-down.
While it's nice that they had water fast, they risked a LOT to save LITTLE. There was no reason to pull the engine past and be under the wires. There was also no reason to go charging right up to the doorway of the shed. Nothing in that shed was salvageable, and you have NO idea of what's in it. Plus you destroyed a section of hose because you went past fire without putting it out. Don't be in such a hurry for nothing that you endanger yourself. That shed was a total loss before they got there.
Great knock down, but take time out to extinguish the ground fire first before dragging your hose through it, and burning your hose while your inside the structure fighting fire !! Also never park your apparatus under power lines.
You guys are the shit! I've watched videos from other departments at it seems like they all just lolly gag around and let what should be a quick knock down turn into a fully involved fire. I am so glad I live in Tulsa, because I know that FD's response will be quick and effective.
Whatever happened to dont pass by fire? Completely avoidable rupture as the first FF drags his line INTO the fire and leaves it there to burn. If that was an interior crew he would cut off his own water supply leaving everyone at risk.
Exactly. Use this as a teaching tool to learn from not only his but the officer and engineer's mistakes as well. The nozzleman may have dragged it through, but the other two helped feed it right through those flames as well. Luckily it was only a shack, but still an inexcusable mistake on a fire that small.
But was it? The nozzleman was too aggressive, and the Officer and engineer didn't seem to have the spatial awareness to notice he failed to extinguish the fire on the ground prior to dragging the hose line through it, going in that shack, and as a result, the line was burned and ruptured. What if there hadn't been an immediate backup line and that was a rolling structure fire rather than some shack? It should be used as a teaching tool to be more thorough. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast.
@@gonuts4donuts you make some good points about the lack of line control. What is good is to see how quickly they had the water going. They lacked proper line disciple instead taking a more lax approach. What was good was the operator had water flowing and set so quickly. The nozzleman did a good job putting water in the right location. The second firefighter should have had the line out of harms way as is required in my department.
Hopefully one day we’ll learn to treat fully involved, unsavable structures with the respect they deserve. Stay OUTSIDE and be smart! Hyper aggressive firefighting with nothing to save or rescue gets people hurt and killed.
Is it me or did that look like a 2 alarm lawn mower garage fire? Seemed like a lot of overly aggressive tactics for something that was already gone, and that posed a risk with the overhead power lines…
Aggressive firefighting - I thought this shed/garage should have been Defensive. Did I imagine hearing ammunition detonation sounds? I would have been behind tree with face shield down praying not propane tank or two in there.
Great fire fighting engine air is perfect water to the nozzle within 40 seconds. I have seen the other engineers LA city especially wait three minutes. They drag their freaking supply line a quarter-mile down the street while the guys are waiting for water. Not these guys. Retired fire captain.
By USA standards, this was fast. I would never have gone into a fallen down shack full of God knows what and alone while it was still hot. The shed is on fire. The power lines are threatened. You can see that from the driver's seat. You stop before the shed, activate the pump and deck gun the shed for 5 seconds using tank water while you pull a booster line to mop up. That means this could have been knocked down by the one-minute mark. Stopped at 0:12. Water flowing by 0:32. The structure soaked by 1:00. Not started at 1:00, Done at 1:00.
That's the quickest I've ever seen american firefighters start to put a fire out, from arriving at the scene to the first water starting to flow, normally it takes them ages... The 3 units were a bit of an overkill just for a shed fire though... nice vid
That was so awesome how they got water in the fire within 59 seconds… the British would have gotten the wet stuff in the red stuff in 32 seconds… and that my friend would make all the difference! (Get over it there is ZERO need to rush for a fire like this…. ZERO….no the whole neighborhood won’t burn down and no they won’t act slowly when they really need to act fast)
That happens all the time. As for 3 units showing up, sometimes the way the caller phrases the emergency, it calls for a larger assignment. A "garage" can be anything from this little shed designed for a Model T Ford, or an equipment garages with many large trucks inside. You can always cancel equipment.
@@brianog5267 These guys are throwing 3 times as much water as a British engine would, and they carry 2-3 times as much water. You might have water on the fire a few seconds faster, but the fire is OUT faster in the US.
@@ffjsb Yeah I’ve watched my local city department here a few times as well as FDNY and Boston FD…. Pretty incredible fire fighters all around.!….Ditto to the Brits and the Danes and whoever else is out there killing themselves for us to be safe….thank you for your efforts

Agreed. More of these folks need to be ready to go. I rarely see it. Great job
Standard practice in Britain.
Got that fire out under 5 minutes of arrival. One of the best fire departments in the Nation. Great job Tulsa 👍🏻

No shit, right? Fog the GROUND fire in front of you before advancing.....nozzlenuts! "I'm on the nozzle...I'M ON THE NOZZLE!"
Another expert.
@@jimmccabe801 ya don't have to be an expert to know that a hose will BURN THRU if you lay it in the fire...

Stockton is pretty much the tits as I see it. Tulsa is definitely up therw
Saw that hose burning through way before it burned through.
I am watching from Elmira NY good job firefighters on getting control of that fire
from setting the parking brake to wet stuff on the hot stuff in under 60 seconds. Now that's a well trained crew.
OMG! These guys are from another planet!

As long as you’re ok with fire burning through your only attack line…. Then they did perfect
Awesome footage. another job well done by TFD
Great Footage as usual!
Nice video! Good to see another in Tulsa.
The Dale Earnhardt '3'on the door of the Engine was nice.
Three firefighters saw that the hose was sitting in fire especially the guy without gear on that was moving the hose around
That is a real fire departament. You are braves my guys. GBU.
Saw that burn through on the first attack line before the nozzle man even opened the pipe! 30 seconds of ground sweep would've prevented that and saved a couple hundred bucks. It isn't like they were going to save the structure lol!
That's was a crazy fast knock down. Well done 👍
Nice to see some firefighters not afraid to work!
Never met one that was afraid to work.
I'd rather have a firefighter that was smart enough to NOT put himself in danger for a dilapidated old shed that's not worth saving....
How many hoses do they burn thru a year?
Great response
I am always concerned about ground fire and dragging hose over burning debris. Also are those power lines burning overhead?
Looked it
In my opinion, this was a single-line fire. Nothing really to save, the only exposure was the power lines. I agree that since there was no real urgency in fire extinguishment, the ground fire should not have been missed. A learning experience.
Burned through hoseline on a shed fire...go get'um brothers!
Awesome footage of them pulling lines off the engine and fire attack. Looked like a toasty one!
Quickest and most effective response I have seen, even if just a shed fire. These guys were togged up ready and worked as a well coordinated team, no pussy footing around. Be safe.
"Be safe"...
They were anything but...
wow that was a quick knockdown guys well done and great to see. if only the other units did the same with a knockdown like this.

Hose line burst because it was burned through.
and thats just stupied , put fire out as u go not when u leaving ,
Wow did they ever get water on that fast, impressive
Great knock on that job. Be safe out there.
Great knock down, but take time out to extinguish the ground fire first before dragging your hose through it, and burning your hose while your inside the structure fighting fire !! Also never park your apparatus under power lines.
Nice footage 👍. You knew what to shoot and for just how long. Keep up the good work.
I am watching from Elmira NY what caused that ahed fire?
Nice knockdown for a shed. Takeaway here is never allow fire behind you, and poly melts easily.
They were lucky, no 20# Propane cylinders stored in the shed. And the eclectic lines didn't drop.
You guys are the shit! I've watched videos from other departments at it seems like they all just lolly gag around and let what should be a quick knock down turn into a fully involved fire. I am so glad I live in Tulsa, because I know that FD's response will be quick and effective.
I fucking knew the hose was gonna get burned through haha. Oh well, it's a better place to learn that lesson than in a structure.
Alles richtig gemacht! Tanklöschfahrzeug, sofort nach dem Schlauch Chaos Wasser !
Great job guys. At last an engine company that knows what they're doing and how to get the job done instead of acting like the Bowery boys.

Not to mention dragging the hose over burning debris (which ruptures at the 1:37 mark!)!
Is it me or did that look like a 2 alarm lawn mower garage fire?
Seemed like a lot of overly aggressive tactics for something that was already gone, and that posed a risk with the overhead power lines…
No such thing as overly aggressive.
What Was The Cause Of The Fire ?
Climate change
Aggressive firefighting - I thought this shed/garage should have been Defensive. Did I imagine hearing ammunition detonation sounds? I would have been behind tree with face shield down praying not propane tank or two in there.
Just sharing thoughts on first clip - not meant to completely dump on great team attack. PS - I have 3 propane tanks in my shed & it is 4’x6’.
Now that’s how you’re supposed to get water on a fire…
Engineer should’ve stopped short of the powerlines
Ahh Mr. Taylor from the Cancer Squad. Nice.
Great fire fighting engine air is perfect water to the nozzle within 40 seconds. I have seen the other engineers LA city especially wait three minutes. They drag their freaking supply line a quarter-mile down the street while the guys are waiting for water. Not these guys. Retired fire captain.
great attack !
See, water does put out fire. Many departments could learn from this.
Engineers doing good but they need to keep an I on Those powerlines
Sheila must be pissed
"stretching in"..........................
RIP power lines
Great job! This is why nobody ever says "F*ck the fire Department"
By USA standards, this was fast. I would never have gone into a fallen down shack full of God knows what and alone while it was still hot.

Some other departments should take lessons from Tulsa.
Just don't learn hose/line positioning from the Tulsa FD. Apparently somebody forgot that fire burns stuff, including their own hose.
@@chris71mach1 That and don't park under burning wires, and don't go into a leaning, fully involved shed...
Yeah, so they could learn how burn through a hose line on an unoccupied outbuilding and other pearls of situational awareness.
maybe pull a bit more forward next time to stay clear of the compromised power lines.
Or stop shorter so you're not under them at all...
