Still amazes me how long It takes before there is water on the flames. Here we come with water in the fire truck and begin immediately with attacking the flames.
I don't consider myself a soft firefighter and I am all about being agressive but you have to be smart. They really do not need to be on that roof. That being said, some fires like this they have a USAR component and some they don't, Still trying to figure out how they utilize that.
I'm with you on this thought. What is the end goal? It seems that most of the West Coast FD's do this. Like you just trying to understand the logic might have to put this into my book of tactics.
This is a craftsman style Single family dwelling. What you see is the dormer and attic with heavy fire, The construction consists of studs with no fire stops and a possible basement, the fire may have started at the lowest level and ran up to the attic. This video is 4 minutes long, which means there is no more sexy footage. It was knocked down within that time and contained to the attic only. The first floor was not burned. Last the attic may have been converted into livable space, the stair casing are usually narrow. Thank you for reading this is a good fire to learn from. I don’t reply much but id thought id share. No fires go perfect.
Unless you suggest they get an X-Ray camera to view the hose teams shooting water inside the building, that's the only bit the camera crew can see from outside (and you can in fact see water spray coming from inside out as the interior crews attack the fire, and some water goes out windows)
@charlesrobinson2423 what a neighbor does or doesn't do with their garden hose has no bearing to LAFD operations... would you rather they sat outside to shoot turrets from the outside, because it looks cooler on video, but turns out someone was trapped inside in an otherwise survivable space and died because no one made entry? Or because, you know, walls exist, turrets can't always knock down the seat of the fire, so it keeps burning and the entire house, not just the upper floor/attic/ceiling are lost? Or let the professionals go inside with hoselines to do a proper Primary Search and Fire Attack against the seat of the fire, even tho you can't actually see that from the outside?
That roof is self vented and in flames. T26 has no business being on that roof. But this is typical LAFD. They've had FF fall through burning roofs but they keep doing the same thing
@@SFClark you may have noticed that at the beginning of the video there were already interior fire attack crews. You cannot use a master stream at the same time crews are working interior. Major safety issue
I d like to know why the aerial ladder was t used when they first arrived on scene to knock down the flames from getting out of control and could have used a deck gun on it too to get this incident put out

Where is here?
@timothyreed8417 the netherlands
Stay safe, pop
At the very beginning I see at least 2 hose lines going into the structure…
What is the output of your hoses in pressure and volume?

He ordered through the Sears catalog.
At any point is anyone other than the neighbor with the garden hose going to squirt some water on the fire?

It’s like they 👨🚒 don’t notice the house next door 😬. 🔥🏚️
RIP Craftsman home. Made it to 100

I couldn’t agree more. I see them doing that all the time I have no idea what’s in your minds.
Bars on first floor windows scary if trying to get out
Must. Vent. Roof. Must. Vent. Roof. Someday the California culture will change. Practices like this on a fire like this, just stupid.
That hose ain’t doing shit neighbour

LA switched to MSA scbas? Nice
Why wouldn't they use a deck gun to put a knock on the second floor?
same thought

Noticed one of the truck crew with no Kevlar hood while that close to fire.
They literally let it burn…
So sad that a beautiful Craftsman house burned...
Does anyone proofread anymore? Man's 100 year old craftsman type home burned during the night?
OMG that house is not worth a life. If I saw my loved one on that roof I would be furious.
