LGBT flag and church turns to fire.... hell fire.
Great job on the ladder hose Houston.
That is one hot fire. At 2:29 mark parts of that roof are glowing hot.
Hope the building site been saved !😂😂😂
Wow rocks burn quick.
awesome firefighting, Burned like heart pine, hard to put out.
church had a pride flag, honourable
Did they ever discover the cause ? I DID NOTICE the rainbow flag draped on that fence on I s property !
I am not a religious person, but to see ant old building burn is very sad ,and like most buildings of that age, i am guessing the inside is a high percentage of wood,ie beams etc. From what was an initially slow start, the firefighters did damned well..
Me too. I'm not religious either and I agree there are less hazardous ways to burn a large number of bibles. Finally torching all my stolen bibles is on my bucket list. If you find one in your rented night stand or dresser, take the dam thing with you. They're nearly always in brand new condition.
이것은 미국휴스턴 어느교회화재 진압이네 세계 각국의 소방진화작업을 많이 보았는데 ! 소화장비는 미국이 최고! 소방수 훈련은 40점 정도일가? 소방수 들의 사고는 하는 느낌! 사명감이 없어요! 훈련점 시키오! 미국 소방당국! 다 타버린후에 소방작업은 왜 해?
Impressive operation!
Looks like the majority of the church was saved
This happens to many churches and cathedrals in France…..and I mean many….🤔
And we all know who starts them!!

How could you be meaning a master stream with no gear on whatsoever
s
A fire of that size and only ladder?????
Very slow getting water on this. A lot more could have been saved if they were quicker!
Must have been an awesome sermon!!✝️
I don't have a religious bone in my body, but I am always saddened by church, being destroyed.
That deck gun is a beast
Professional firefighters without turn out gear on????
Facade washers , lack of water,lack of trainning,lack of everything!

Such a nice bldg.
OMG THIS IS REAL LIFE OR NOT
it's real
Use less fire fighters 🧯 😂
If it weren’t for those fire fighters, the whole church would of burned down. I was the one that called the police. That is my old preshool and lots of things happen in that church.
0:02 meow meow!
Is this what`s called ` Holy Smoke ` ?
No . It's more like your blessing just went up in smoke .
V. Dargain These Buildings lie empty most of the year, taking up valuable land, land that can be developed into low cost quality housing which better serves the community than old, cold buildings. In Britain a lot of them have either been pulled down or, converted into luxury flats or, turned into Clubs or, other venues. Most people don’t even bother going to Church nowadays, myself included. Why bother sitting in a cold draughty building listening to a boring old fart dressed up in a colourful frock lecturing to the rest of us about life when they in turn are abusing kids.
The Gay flag......
Very very Good job god hete idolatry Abraham was aginst idolatry moses was aginst idolatry all the Bible aginst idolatry
pump on pump off pump on wtf is that about
Water supply
Has anyone else noticed how churches usually always burn with such veracity. ….big or small. Nothing simple about a church fire.
lots of teak and mahogany, decades sometimes centuries of creosote from candle smoke up in the rafters. decades of varnish and wax on the wooden beams and decor etc.
I would suppose @@jamesdziendziel9187, that large open spaces rather than small comparmentalised rooms, helps the spread of a fire in a church.
The word is "Ferocity" LOL
I can bet not one Bible or / Cross was touched. Churches have individual rooms IE Classrooms which will help contain the Fire, if that Church is an open concept Church, it doesn't stand a chance because the Fire will spread faster because it can't be contained in rooms.
@@jamesdziendziel9187 not to mention many old churches were built with wood that is called Firestarter.
Think it's it's certain type of pine.
Nice stop! I thought that fire was going run the whole roof. Good job by the bucket, they got that water in where it it was needed. Didn't just elevate and point the stream down like you see so many times.👍
They should've burn the flag
No American Flag, No State Flag? Just curious.....
Only flag I see is gay pride,hmmm.
Houses of worship regularly don't have flags because they are worshipping a deity, not a political system.
@@outdoorjunkie13 most I have been in do, and I'm Episcopalian, but not outside, usually inside the Church
@@garyhess7439 Or perhaps the international peace flag, which is identical.
Slow Response 🐌
Somebody grab the holy water FAST
LOL
put it out
sue!
Why are so many CHURCES burñing 😅MAYBE ASK THE BIG GEÑERAL.
Tower 6 is really kicking the shit out of that fire !!
What caused this church 🔥& was anybody inside the church before it caught 🔥 if yes did everybody make it out safely before the church caught 🔥?????🤔🤔🤔🤔🤨🤨🤨🤨
DO YALL SEE THE LGBTQ FLAG AT THE FRONT OF THE CHURCH???
GOD WASN'T PLEASED
why stop the water on this front of the building?
So they started to put water on it, then waited until it was out of control to continue.
Maybe the firefighters were Satan worshippers LOLLIO
Prob used tank water initially and the hydrant supply wasn't up quick enough
.
No loss if it is a woke church
I know the firefighters have to work with precision and focus, however I watch so many of these videos where the FD kinda strolls down the street from the firetruck with hoses. I guess I watch too many movies where they jump off moving trucks and run to the nearest fire hydrant. They’re great men and women. No strikes against them. Just seems odd.
Rest assured, there is good reason dor rhe way they do it.
@@WitchidWitchid That's the problem with US FD. You will see European FD hit the fire hard with water far quicker. They reduce the heat, prevent spread, and make an internal attack much easier. The US FD are too busy letting the sirens wail 1 minute after they arrived and standing around posing.
@@PreservationEnthusiast Nonsense.
@@WitchidWitchid Just watch the videos and you'll see it. If you're blind to the action, that's your problem though.
@@PreservationEnthusiast US firemen don;t show up to a fire to pose. You are making a general sweeping statement with false assumptions.
These parking lot builders never seem t be n a hurry. Takes forever as they slowly move to get the first water on the blaze
are you serious? these firemen were trained to be fast why are they just just standing around being slow pokes?making the fire gets bigger.
Ruy Lozano should go back to riding on the ambulance
The work of tower 6 is very impressive.
Wonder what can burn like that in church build with stone.
Was there a water supply problem, or pump problem or was sylvester turner inside.
Have you seen a gay flag outside the church?
Hummmm a Gay Church........🐝
Nope . Just A church . They all seem to be wearing bulleyes nowadays .
Absolutely amazing work by all involved 💙😁👍😎
Anyone notice the gay pride 🏳️🌈
Houston, you've got a problem 🤣
@ 2:56 I just don't understand the two guys working the blitzfire without gear. Just makes absolutely zero sense at all.
Dont really need the gear to aim a monitor. Those are usually set it and forget it. Departments use that on defensive fires to free up other personnel.
Was that a Gay pride flag I saw? 😲😲😮😮
Holy moly smoke
Just me or anyone else notice 'Gay Pride' flag? On a church? Not phobic, just stating what I see. Great job depts.
Many denominations welcome everyone.
God works in mysterious ways.
When man turns their backs on god and his will, they will suffer.. The evidence in this video is proof of that.. Support what god says is wrong, you pay the price..
Frig tower 6 has some power!! Serious water pressure and volume coming out that nozzle!
ITS A PIERCE.....WHAT DO YOU EXPECT
Houston we have a problem
Great video and this brings back memories when I was a volunteer fireman for St.helens Oregon. It was a early morning fire and it was the first call into my shirt. We just got on duty when we got a call like this one.
Does a brick building burn; you bet it does!
Jim Carrell you are correct and if the fire is intense & hot enough it can cause significant structural problems as it'll weaken the mortar or completely vaporize the mortar and the bricks or stones used will become very brittle
What was burning in the Joelma building fire in Sao Paulo Brazil. The furniture, the paint, the trim, and the concrete was damaged by the entrapped air expanding and the resultant spalling that occurred. If it is porous it has trapped air pockets this will cause cracking and chips popping off the porous mineral building material weakening it.
Gladly this is stone i think. If it was wood then already will be burned down with the rest of the building
The inside burns.
🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗👍👍👍👍👍👍🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
Cancel Christmas!
Awesome Footage Zac 👍🏼
So much for PPE in that department?
Oh, that's sad!
Another pediagog without God bites the dust.
Nice bucket work
I wouldn't be surprised if St. Mark himself had something to do with it.
Jeez, never seen a water jet demolish a building’s roof before! It certainly did the job. Nice work.
But did they get an interior attack going? I didn't see any lines go in that I could tell.
you know it's bad when even the cameraman has to put the camera down to do something.
and what the fire doesn't destroy, the water pressure creates, good work..
To aim a watercanon is more difficult than you think :)
And it's a Blitzfire........
Not a Deck Gun at point blank range!
@@johnwrigley1624 in some FD's its known as a Master Stream
Ive turned down the volume and playing Bloodhound Gang's "Fire Water Burn".. Great footage! :D
Hope the money raised goes to the homeless people instead of rebuilding.
Firemen NEVER seem to move quickly to connect hoses and get the water flowing. It's as though they have decided it's going to be a total loss and they don't care what the loss is to the owners of a house or the congregation of a church..
Life safety or getting people out of the building became their priority first.
The pews in that building might as well be solid blocks of gasoline. I got burned in a similar situation.
That Tower is A Bad Boy Need other Stream or Fog tip coming off the Bucket For Extra Flow..
0:33 America's fixation with their Hose! This is how you do it America! An Engine with a full load of water lays in the hydrant line and stops in front of those windows. The driver gets out and activates the pump. The third FFer blasts each window with 5 seconds of water and within ONE MINUTE, the fire in those rooms is out and extension has been stopped.
Three firefighters, one engine and one minute and they have done their JOB of "Stopping the threat quickly and safely while using the least amount of water." This fire was supervised by an incompetent human.
Are you still embarrassing yourself with your ignorant BS, JB? You've been slapped silly so many times, by so many people who actually know what they're talking about, that your continued dedication to proving your stupidity is surprising.
Since you know so well how to do the job why don't you be a firefighter
@@JasmineLindros Not once in 12 years has anybody told me where and how I was wrong. Least of all you. The one with the biggest mouth with absolutely Nothing to offer. Notice how you had nothing to say about the subject at hand, firefigfhting? Why didn't you tell me line by line how I was wrong? Are you incapable of discussing something as SIMPLE as firefighting? All you can do is make childish comments? Does this mean anything to you? "This channel doesn't have any content" You are a waste of life!
@@ikonix360 How has Guessing you way through life worked for you?
Oh well just a building, mean looking flames
I have attended hundreds of fires in my time but it is always sad to see old community buildings like this getting destroyed
Nice job by Tower 6.....could've used another tower and portable deck gun.
That’s ironic. There was a Sylvester Turner ad before and after this video. For those that don’t know he’s the mayor the Houston fire union backed when he ran in 2015. He was the only candidate that promised not to touch the firefighters pension. Wouldn’t you know, he immediately went after their pensions. I know guys losing $200k out of their retirement because of Turner.
If that wasn’t enough, he went against the will of the Houston voters who voted for Proposition B (pay raise to equal HPD), which passed. He has fought tooth and nail and used city funds to fight and overturn it. The firefighters were not only screwed out of their pension, now there doesn’t appear to be a pay raise raise in site (they passed on pay raises over the years in order to keep their pension).
Anyways. Good video as usual.
lordismo Is there anyway to recall him and give the pensions and raises back to the fire fighters?
None of Your Business to be honest, I don’t know.
lordismo I find these kind of people can make many people believe their lies. They can lie through their teeth and mean it as if what they are saying is truth. My grandfather was such a man when he was a major in Toronto Canada. Pure filthy. A real scum bag. Giving construction jobs to the company that gave him the thickest envelope under the table. Taking money to allow chemical companies pour their toxic waste in his land fill sites at night. A real gem. To this day children are dying of cancers because their houses were built over those land fill sites.
What a complete and utter scum bag.
A real pathetic lying thief.
@@lindanwfirefighter4973 Would you happen to know where some (or all) of these residential areas are that your granddad allowed toxic waste to be poured into?
I thought Houston had many more resources than displayed here.
Nice tower 🚒
Look at that beautiful copper roof, took the patina right off…
Great job attacking the fire from the outside
These comments are a trippppp
sad to see

Yes a beautiful church.
