Tasha Hunt and Koyne Watson, thank you from another Okanagan BC Resident for the fantastic work killing another potential beast. The past days have been incredible with fire starts (fire bugs and pyros at play) up and down the valley. Your speedy speed boat efforts are obviously a great gift you gave back to a community. Your boat rocks, and so do you both. Thanks BIG time! HIP HIP HOORAY (x3)
4 years later and still one of the dopest things ever captured and to be done. Kudos to that guy. Oh he definitely captain of the ship when they got home lol
Got speed? that man! may God bless him and his finely tuned machine when in doubt all you have go do is turn up, and this man did! Props on the driving amazing skills.
5th video in a row of watching a boat/jet ski put out a fire. This one was the most impressive. Probably sounds like a dragster because it has a dragster motor in it. lol. Well done!
I was there last summer dealing with the fallout of fires in and around Whisper Lake and Prince George. 87 North was totally useless. We had to ride through Kamloops all the way around just to get to Prince George. Glad to see folks like this guy handling that business. If I would have to reroute farther east just to go west, it would have eaten up more than a couple of days.
I used to work on twin-cats whose two caterpillar engines would each shift the equivalent of an Olympic sized swimming pool every two seconds, it's a damn impressive sight up-close and personal, but those things were huge compared to that little thing. What I'm getting at here is that comparatively speaking, the power to weight ratio on that thing must be through the roof, lol 👌 🍻
Is this the fire that the dude started in his yard by angle grinding without paying attention to the sparks he was throwing? I know that's east shuswap rd. If it is, I was up in juniper across the river while this was happening.
@@mattcreek824 shit, it doesn't feel that long ago. I was on a roof working and the smoke cloud was freakin huge. By the time we were done the job the entire mountainside was lit up.
Nah this isn’t that one. The one you’re talking about wasn’t this long ago and went straight up the mountain and west towards sun rivers. This was a year or 2 before that.
Smoke another dude. The jet boat operator could not open it up at the 6:30 mark because fucktard filming douche was in the way. It's not rocket science stupid!
That's a lot more difficult than it looks, you tilt your nozzle skyward and it pushes the stern *hard* into the lake 👀 Faster is better, but you have to turn the nozzle shoreward too.. and guess where that sends you.. 🤜🤛
Great video. Have you thought about running it through an image stabilization program? It would take out a lot of the shake for a clearer view. Just a thought.
Controlled burns are never done in such dry conditions and so near residential properties. Interesting fact. Fires are caused by three things........men, women and children. Along the line there is ALWAYS a human element involved. Even down to spontaneous combustion in silos which are caused by incorrect storage conditions.
next time any man's wife says "you do not need a supercharged jet-boat" show her this video.
😂😂
Best comment ever!
Lol yup. Man thats funny
Mike Gordon. Dude. Awesome comment. 👍👍🤣🤣
And they never complained about that noisy boat ever again!
Haha brilliant comment

That’s awesome!!! Glad they were recognized!!!
Great stuff
You know turned to his wife and said hold my beer and watch this!awsome job
The best sounding fire engine I have ever heard!
4 years later and still one of the dopest things ever captured and to be done. Kudos to that guy. Oh he definitely captain of the ship when they got home lol
That boat has a hell of great sound!
I love a V8 with open headers! Music to my ears
this guy deserves a medal, he probably saved those homes from certain disaster....a hero in my eyes.
Congratulation for speed boat owner! That is awesome!
That's no speed boat
Other uploads say he definitely " Helped"....I'd say he contained 95% of this fire. Not just what you see, but how much it could have been !
I'd say if it wasn't for him by the time Emergency Services arrived it would have been potentially out of control!
💯
Yes it is wasn't for him the entire earth would have burned down. All the oceans would have caught fire.
yes.
@Anime Tiddies I would have been the same if he didn't do that.
Bet that guy doesn't drive a prius
He vomits at the thought of them
He probably does, just nobody knows
Who would?
👏🏻👏🏻😂😂😂BEST COMMENT!!!!
It would have exploded and made its own fire.
Fire crews get there and be like what did they call us for. Lol
...maybe they were up for some water skiing.
The guy got a service medal from the police and fire department abd city of Kamloops
We needed this guy this week!
no doubt.
Now he can add 'FIREBOAT Operator' to his Resume'
Very impressive i hope he doesn't have to pay for his fuel for the rest of the boat season what a legend!!
BC government is so backwards they’ll probably fine him for eroding the bank
Not all heroes wear capes . .
Some just drive realy cool boats
Got speed? that man! may God bless him and his finely tuned machine when in doubt all you have go do is turn up, and this man did! Props on the driving amazing skills.
I know I'm a few years late , but , great work ( from a former firefighter ) ! 👍
Just think of all the times this boater practiced this on his beach dwelling buddies. Practice makes perfect.
legend has it hes still fighting our fires to this day, one boat trip at a time.
How have I not seen this video before, I’m from there and did the initial attack firefighting a while back, classic vid boys
Town folk ought to chip in and pay for his boat fuel for a season. Nice job✌👍👍👍
Probably racing fuel
I hope they do.
This guy is too awesome!
A moment of silence for the fish that sacrificed their lives in the making of this video.
Did that guy really ask "is the boat water proof?"
Lmao
Well I mean even boats are not something you want to submerge. They can be left in rain but will get dirty quickly
His phone😂
Phone, not boat
Sweet. What an amazing couple of guys! Thank you for your great efforts.
this is still one of my fav moments in kamloops!!!!
5th video in a row of watching a boat/jet ski put out a fire. This one was the most impressive. Probably sounds like a dragster because it has a dragster motor in it. lol. Well done!
holy shit never seen this done before cool shit
Call Him The Fireman!!
Call the boat that

Fireboat 1 on scene!
Haha
I can't stop smiling what a great guy
Home town hero!!
This, is the new coolest thing I have EVER seen in my life!! You guys rock!!!!
Next time someone is trying to help a situation and YOU aren't, stay the hell out of the way!
The hero is the owner of cobra contracting out of Kamloops
Great job! The best part is, he’s having a blast too!
in jersey, firemen would be like good job, police would write a summons for open pipes.
You've done it before, and you'd do it again, Kamloops is on fire!
That was one of the coolest things I ever seen good thinking from the jet boat driver kudos to him
Kudos that speedboat driver and his/her skills at directing the discharge from the jet to where it was needed.
I came here for the fire, stayed for the engine sounds ! That was badass. What an effort to help out. Props. Ba-da-bump! I'll show myself out! Haha.
No props...actually jet drive! 👍😂😂
Holy SH!T Those are 2-300ft roosters. Those people need to be recommended for their courageous act.
That was the greatest thing I've ever seen. Give that man a gas card.
Bigg Respect . I love it .
Heros dont need capes, sometimes all you need is a badass blown big block jetboat with a place diverter
THESE HOUSES ARE ON THE RESERVE ALONG THE THOMPSON RIVER. VERY COOL. I HEARD OF THE GUYS ON THE BOAT THAT PUT THE FIRE ALMOST OUT.
Bless you and your badass boat - good show !
"HE PUT FIRE 00000TT !!!!"

Simple and creative at the same time!
Amazing bro!!this is wonderful moment for the word🤗👍 thanks
I bet the guy driving the boat had a righteous firefighter mustache !!!
thats a hero right there!
Awesome video.. just remember not to use a zoom function on an awesome video like this!
Awesome. ..That's real Talent..God Bless him
If I lived on a lake or river and my house was burning instead of 911 I'd call this dude.
iIwanna build myself a redlining v8 fire truck. What a ripper of a bloke. Well done mate.
Is this the fire that the dude started in his yard by angle grinding without paying attention to the sparks he was throwing? I know that's east shuswap rd. If it is, I was up in juniper across the river while this was happening.
Yes that’s the one. I was working next door to this house in the morning and was also in juniper at the time of fire.
@@mattcreek824 shit, it doesn't feel that long ago. I was on a roof working and the smoke cloud was freakin huge. By the time we were done the job the entire mountainside was lit up.
Nah this isn’t that one. The one you’re talking about wasn’t this long ago and went straight up the mountain and west towards sun rivers. This was a year or 2 before that.
And the fire department is like "WHERE IS THAT FIRE"
Good job hoser.
Give this man a ice cold BEER. Outstanding!!!
If this boat is named “Suck My Wake” my life will be complete.
With Dan Aykroyd driving......
66 people down voted this? Are those the guys whose wives said they could only own a kayak?
Honestly this guy deserves a farking medal
bro was saving homes and having the time of his life
I dont know what's better the boat or the hammered guy in the background.
I'm imagining the fire department rolling up on this just seeing water being spurted from down below
yeß
Well he got free drink at the bar that night. Great job.
Nice video work Bro!!!
The guys holding the camera got sprayed too but they ain't mad ine bit. That's how rad this guy spraying water is.
That man is a national hero.
Nice way to go , guys perfect aim, nice jet kool thanks BigAl California.
Who filmed this should have stayed away instead of getting in the way
Beachnative42 obviously uve never bin on a boat in the lake there definitely not in the way that boat has more than enuff room to do wat hes doing!
Smoke another dude. The jet boat operator could not open it up at the 6:30 mark because fucktard filming douche was in the way. It's not rocket science stupid!
Shut the fuck up you skid
Beautiful and very good.
That man is a legend
That's a lot more difficult than it looks, you tilt your nozzle skyward and it pushes the stern *hard* into the lake 👀
Faster is better, but you have to turn the nozzle shoreward too.. and guess where that sends you.. 🤜🤛
Love the eloquent commentary
I saw a jetske put out a boat fire , and now this is just as awesome, nana and papa aka the hunter wishing you well
Freakn Awesome! !!!
This guy doesn't drink budlight.
Great video. Have you thought about running it through an image stabilization program? It would take out a lot of the shake for a clearer view. Just a thought.
That was at my birth town and those two people are Awesome
'Is your boat waterproof?'......Bless his heart.
all boats aré
Someone by that man a beer!
Hell yeah that is freaking awesome
Very impressive!!
Awesome video

That was awesome
My step dad once put out his buddies boat fire with his rooster tail and it was badass😂
TOTALLY AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That dude is great
Fuck do I love it here in Kamloops
and this year a big fire broke out on that plateau on the next level up, but a bit closer to town. woulda needed a bigger boat.
to all of you out there this is how we put out fire in CANADA Canadair CL415 water bomber and with super charged boat wow
who is running the camera? You looking where your pointing???
pshodean don't know if you knew this but he was on a boat
That is some of the manliest shit I have ever seen. Proud to be your American neighbors.
$500 with the gas to put the fire out totally worth it
5:02 what is that falling down from the Sky ?
