- Birmingham Fire and Rescue LT. Oj Kolodziej discusses the importance of reading smoke, door control, understanding flow path.
The design of the doll house is from the Stop Believing Start Knowing group, Go and check them out. The design has been changed a little from what the plans call for. Lt. Brannon Vernon, FF Luke Ahl, FF Drew Gargus along with myself changed the inner door. And had realistic results.I would like to thank Ed Linsey for recording our training.
No textbook ever existed on fire behavior; it had to be learned death-by-death and the ink was the blood of firefighters.
True.
Same with the fire code and civilian deaths. If its part of the code its probably because it killed someone.
@@AZombieWizard SOP & SOG are usually created because of an incident.
True. But we also do experiments to enhance our understanding of fire behavior and we hope it will help prevent some.of those seaths.
Today, after hours on TH-cam seeing random video's ... I've finally learnt something with this one, now I'll go to bed.
This is a great video. Our house caught on fire in one room while we were at work. It was within minutes of a flashover and really searching for air. The first responders had a very tough task because they knew introducing air in the wrong places would be disaster. They placed three separate men at three entryways and did exactly what they needed to do. There was a big flashover once they entered the house, but they put the fire out and no one was injured. Sure our interior had to be totally rebuilt, but these guys saved our house. Much respect and much appreciation for what you guys do.
This is the fire department in my hometown (Birmingham, AL) that made this video. Growing up, all of my interactions with these gentlemen were professional and very knowledgeable. I’m not surprised they made a presentation of this caliber. Excellent work, and I hope that many new firefighters learn from this video and the model used in it.
Great presentation and thank you for sharing.
that was one of the most interesting video about fire behavior i have seen. well done
man what an awesome demonstration! was in the fire service for over 9 years and have never seen a demonstration quite this unique! Thanks for sharing. :)
Thankyou for your service 💜
Wow that was very Educational Thanks for posting this
Volunteer firefighter here. I learned alot, Watching the video and reading comments below. thank you. Our last fire here in my community of 200 was over 15 years ago that ended with the death of the occupant. Our crew at the time didn't have formal training. We now have 10 volunteers and train under the instruction of Career Firefighters who fly over to us to train. Once again, thank you.
I've seen a lot of these demonstrations at different departments I believe this is the genuine article
great video I admire all the fireman I can't thank them enough for what they do for the community
Excellent program. I know most people who see things happening will learn it and retain the information. These guys did a great job on this presentation. Definitely got your money’s worth on this. The firefighters are very knowledgeable and up to date with the current training.
THANK YOU Everyone should take note of your demo...WELL DONE even for the public !!
excellent job, thank you for recording and sharing.
Fantastic demo.
The culture in the UK is pretty much the polar opposite iof the US - it's all about surpression and very very few people advocate any kind of ventelation at all untill after the fire.
In reality of corse it can be useful, but how it behaves and the fireground must be understood extremely well I think for tit to be safe.
Fantastic video that PROVES that vertical ventilation does not work. Find what's burning and put water on it and stop playing with it.
I don't know, tacvent has come in quite a lot recently and is now used a fair bit.
yep, just did my BA requal the other week and I percieved a change. Hard to know for sure though because as retained you tend to get excluded from any conversation untill their is a core brief update. Least that's been my experience.
good job. I learned on this training.
Thank you, I'm currently working on a story involving a house fire and this was really helpful
Nice Job ! Stay safe guys.
Regards from Texas, 29 years service. Retired for three months and my wife is trying to find me a job!
Thankyou for your service! 💜
Very Nice démonstration. Thank You from France Lyon
Awesome demonstration. Well done
Amazing training.
Very Informative. As an apartment renter. I learned that if you can get out get out but try to close windows and doors behind you. This video proves it could save lives
Excellent video. Well done.
Great video. Glad the instructor saw it so well with his melon in the way.
This is very interesting. Great visual!
LT: "The hardest thing about using the box here is getting the fire going."
ME: "Lighter fluid..."
outstanding! im a lt at a volly co in northern nj, im going to show this at an upcoming drill night, its an awesome demo.
awesome video !
Really good video guys! Firefighter from North Carolina
this house is a very nice idea - ty for showing us
Great demo
I think every fire department should have these to train. Outstanding work. I always say air is the best fuel for a fire.
Great information thank for sharing
Awesome Video Guys!!!
each room only flashed once. a flashover is the sudden and sustained transition from a developing fire to a fully developed fire. so the supposed flashes that occur after that when the fire had died down, and then got going again with the introduction of air, is a backdraught. a backdraught is a well developed fire that is starved of oxygen. when oxygen is reintroduced it deflagrates as it is still at auto ignition temperature
OUTSTANDING!! I'm not a firefighter, but I did go away learning a lot. If more if these type of videos we made, and the public watched them all the way thru, even many times and learn, they will better understand why firefighters do things at a fire that come of looking to many of us like they are jacking around doing nothing or in many eyes, doing something "wrong" tactics wise. Would cut down on the nasty comments overall both from the public and firefighters jumping on the public's comments calling them stupid names and other shit.
wow very good explication TY!
Wow great job
With this kind of prop, you could probably demonstrate pushing fire as well if you put a good fog into one of those vents.
Learning alot from the 16$ dollhouse! Want to express my thanks to all
Cool how smoke goes through certain vents and how it puffs.
In academy now, very useful video.
It got real, boss!! LOL
Where can I find the build plans for the house? This is one of the best I have ever seen in 30 years.
I'm a volunteer in Levittown PA. J Kolodziej
10, 11,12, 13,14??
Great video to show how venting WILL help the fire to progress. In Europe, things get done differently, like putting the fire out before it destroys the building. Also, you need a new driver for the ambulance. He had enough space to turn that darn thing around in one go.
Hello I am a Training officer at my local Fire Dept. I'd like to be able to use a prop like this for our up coming fire academy. Is it possible to get the plans for this? It would be great to get the rookies out of the classroom for a better understanding.
PERFECT! Love it! Good luck :)

Interesting but can't help wondering if this is sending out mixed messages, at least from looking at the comments. The key message I got from this video is to create a vertical vent hole, and allow just enough air into the building from the lower levels to facilitate vertical venting of gases, but not quite enough to feed the fire.
very helpful
Go find that fire room on your 360. Vent horizontally pull a line to the door. Pull a secondary to the vent point of the fire room. Cool from a safe distance while primary line makes entry Make the fire walk backwards from the ability to flash.
This is the coolest thing ever
Great demonstration! He asks what's our enemy? He says air, I say "OSB wood and engineered trusses" are our enemy.
cool how smoke puffs and how it goes through the vents.
Is the double flash over scenario specific to multi-story structures or is it applicable to single story structures as well?
Do you have the build plan for it? Also how long do these things last if I do the same thing in the video?
Camera keeps watching the ambulance ha ha ha making my ADD go wild
so cool
Did you use any kind of screws or wood nails if like to make one of these props for my department
Nice Video
Where can I find the build plans for the house at
Jeff give me your email, I can send it to you.
Jeff Davis was
coyboy82@hotmail.com
Would you mind to send me the architectural drawings too please.
ggaldamest18@gmail.com
Thks!!
Oj Kolodziej if It's not to much trouble could you send the plans to me at bcamp5109@gmail.com
I learned something
'do you know what happens if i do this? boom! this happens. what if i open the vertical door and close the other one? yea that' s right that happens. any questions? '
that's all i understood
Lt. Burn... Nice.
I am a firefighter in sweden and ill tell u these dudes even teach us things we could Do but i got one question for u guys so there is a apartment fire who Do u save first ? The dude on the last floor or the dude on the first floor ? And the fire is worse on the last floor
Ok I'm a kid but I'm gonna guess the venturia effect is it keeps flames from your head when
Hi would it be possible to know where i can get plans to build something like that Thanks
So many lives would be saved if Americans would build concrete and brick homes instead of literal pyres. I'd be scared shitless to live in such house. It's vulnerable to fire, thermites, tornados, just about anything.
The first time a firefighter accidentally put out a fire...
where do I get the plans from?
Where can I get the plans for the house?
I’m 13 and I’m about to be 14. I’m able to join the fire department at 14 but they are letting me join at 13. This was cool. I want to do this.
can i get the build plans for it
I'd be the guy there that would be "can we just let it burn?"
Same 😂
It's hard to demonstrate a true backdraft in a small box like that. I've seen it done in a full size sea train container. The flashovers were impressive. It is a shame they lost so many veterans to save money.
fotmasta could you explain exactly what happened in Birmingham
@@tvjjerome I re-read what I wrote and should have worded it differently. The model definitely fits all the requirements to be a backdraft. On a larger scale the result is more explosive. There was a supermarket backdraft I'm thinking of that was almost like a bomb going off. That's what I muddled in my original comment.
fotmasta no I meant with the veterans
@@tvjjerome In the video he mentions after the buyout of a majority of veteran firefighters, the newer less experienced FFs didn't have the benefit of the experienced vets explaining things on the job. The rookies lacked the sort of apprenticeship you get when working with the old timers.
Why are fires worse in the winter I've heard that
Only thing that needs to change is use metal saw horse next time. Wonder how many have melted the plastic ones?
That's good training boys good training
You think so? Read my comments.
JB91710 well vertical vent is only going to work if you have the man power and done right it's very affective other than the vent the flash over simulation was cool
Mike Demiduk You prevent flashover by spraying the ceiling as you go to cool the gasses as you go through the house to find what's burning. Everything else is playing.
can I get a link for plans
do you have a blue print for this
So when I set a house fire I should leave a window open?
Cameron Morrow you shouldn't be setting fires at all unless your planning on going to jail, unless you mean by accident
X Racer that was the joke lmao
Cameron Morrow lmao
If only it would still cost 16 bucks with today's lumber prices
Also tough crowd lol you should participate more in conversation guys
I LIKE
That OSB particle board is nothing but fire accelerant, this $16 box proves it. How is this CODE acceptable? when I was working in construction during the winter; we could always get a fire going fast with some OSB and some Contractors Grade adhesive for flooring. I can only imagine how fast the fire would spread adding in some furniture , carpet, and plastic window blinds.
That Vidal smoke looks smoke tooken from a video game xd
So I’m late to this but...
how do you firefighters not cry from the smoke? Like when I’m camping I can’t even. And these guys just stared into the smoke coughing a little.
100th sub!
You have the exact same last name as me. Where you from?
What is wood type ?
He asks, he answers.
The instructor is bringing up a lot of questions, but I'm not hearing any answers for those questions. What caused the puffing smoke? I don't see that in my book.
With only one opening the fire is "gasping" for air. While the smoke is pushing out its trying to breath and pull in fresh air. hence the breaks in smoke stream and puffing smoke. Hope that helps.
It's like when you're filling your lawn mower with a gas container, and the little black cap isn't open. The gasoline is coming out in rhythmic splashes, because as the gas drains from the container its trying to suck air in to replace the gas
This is so cool! Im going to make this 4 my sister use her doll house! Im 8 and she's 5 we'll put some Barbie's in and matches it in her room 4 her birthday on Saturday night!!
who know where to buy this house?
“Look what happened there was a double flashover” well I wish I could have seen but the stupid Infa red camera was in the way lol thanks
Julia Chernov ikr. One of the best parts of the video blocked by the flir.
Skip to 6:30 if you want to skip the explanation of the house
🔥 🏠
How can we get a copy of the plans ???
+Northeast Massachusetts Technical Recsue I need your email.
Ruskid2@aol.com
Thanks
+Oj Kolodziej Can you also send it to zeric66@outlook.com
+Oj Kolodziej Could you please send the plans also to jsellers40@gmail.com much thanks!
Hey guys, nice demonstration. Yall try McDonald's cup holders to start your fires. You will not believe how fast they will ignite.
Very interesting training. I watched it through Looks like the spoilt child has had a tantrum and burnt her dolls house down lol
Where is teachers breathing aparatus? Too much issues in a short time.
