Wow! Sho. Just came over here from Dash cam Australia. Never knew this existed. So smart. Thank you for this & your service! *You learn something new everyday. Be safe out there! 🙏🏾❤️
I’ve always had a huge respect for all firefighters, but especially the volunteers. I had no idea they had something like this. Thank God they did. I hope the men in the first fire truck survived and.
Aw..i miss old Betsy..The old 3.4.D was a cracking truck....could pump 950 litres a minute and held 3000 litres.... although we did nearly get microwaved on the back of that truck at the Morwell mine fire.....
Just the other day we were commenting on the new 4.4’s and how poor the auto gearboxes were but at least those boxes on the back are a thing of the past! Credit to you guys for the years of service you did with them. I see them all the time now on farms being used as bushfire trucks at harvest! I’m glad our government phased them out!
holy shit, i was feeling sick for them,imagining the real thing, although it really doesnt seem so safe in the back there with the silver fire blanket looking thing as their only protection. such courageous people, and they wouldn't be able to cope without all the volunteers, can you actually picture saving someone elses home knowing yours is burning? true heros
Hey Dee, under the shelter on the back of a truck like this, with the fire curtains is actually incredibly safe! Especially when it’s compared to the old method of lying on the deck with a woollen blanket over your head with one arm holding a hose with the branch set to fog!
The water for this system comes from another tank that can't be used for anything else. You can run the truck out of water and still have this protection.
@@josephastier7421 I am not sure about this particular model, but all crew protection uses the same tank of water for firefighting. There is an alarm that goes off once you are about to go below 750 litres. In bushfire environment, all firefighting seize immediately once that alarm goes. in an urban environment where you got steady supply, we often let is run out.
If it took you seeing this video to have a different level of respect for these men then you are an idiot. Theres absolutely nothing in this video that makes them deserve any more respect than you should have had in the first place. You need to see a water system spraying their tires to understand the job they do. Scumbag.
Yeah, respecting firefighters is so edgy. You sound like the typical snowflake Fox news watcher who can't dare to think for themselves because you might overwork your brain.
Chase McDude yeah, I never said I had no respect previously, I said "new respect" and you sound like an unappreciative prick with a chip on your shoulder. Think before you write messages and refer to people as scumbags! SCUMBAG!
@@chasemcdude9231 Try not to cut yourself on that edge pal. Getting salty over someone's youtube comment and insulting them - real mature. Not going to engage in an argument with you, but just remember that disrespect will never be tolerated.
you ever watch that video of that fireman running away from a bushfire and not making it out in time? yeah. shit puts bush/forest/field fires on my top ten ways i dont want to die
This is awesome, but it should be noted it's only going to be effective to a certain point. I would say lighter fuel types but this wouldn't save you in big timber.
My god I would HATE to be one of the guys in the shelter on the back. Just having the flaps to save you...... 😳 At least inside you have the exterior of the truck to hold it and also protect you. But to be on the back and be WAY MORE exposed..... 🔥😬🔥 NO THANK YOU! But thank you to all those who are willing to potentially go through that to help others.
After watching it in a real fire I thought it would be move violent but apparently not. Still scray to have to think about how little is keeping you from getting seriously injured but it works well.
We generally don't have the issue of "burnover" like they do. We just don't have areas like that that would burn openly. Our areas that do burn are forests and usually no trucks are up there.
@@testy462 there's nothing "usual" when burn over happens. That's the whole idea about investing in back basic safety equipment. But another billion on long overblown military isn't an issue over there ...
@@testy462 Im late to the party by a few years on this comment but you need to come to the Great Plains. Big range fires all day long. It will burn through thousands to hundreds of thousands of acres in an afternoon.
There's a huge difference between fighting a fire in a construction and one surrounding it. Sprinklers are mandatory on certain size of buildings. Anyone is free to install such equipment on their own house ...
@@firefighter_dj also they had the CFS Ute there as well and in a burnover drill were vehicles who dont have water or the actual burnover equipment the trucks try to lineup to allow the other vehicles to hide behind them. the CFS said after that the front truck did the right thing, even though they didnt have any water left the truck is more likely to survive a burn over then the ute is and a collision at that speed wouldn't do enough damage to effect the back truck from operating
Two mistakes 1. The time between the horn and whistle is too slowing a burn over it should be exactly 10to 20 seconds 2. The paper on the dash should have been moved because of the radiant heat that can cause a fire to starting the cab
so when the flames hit...the water helps guide it to the men?...would it not be better to have the water spraying on top of them...away at the flames.....I want to pick straws on who sits in back...
I think the only thing scarier than that would be having to deploy your personal fire shelter.
Major respect to firefighters.
TIL. Never knew this type of system exists. Thank you for sharing!

Ditto!
I’m from the U.S and never seen this before. It’s pretty awesome. Much respect

Men in the first truck? This sounds like a generic bot comment.
My Lord....How much the trucks have changed. I remember doing burn over drills on those trucks and the newer ones
I never even knew the trucks were equipped to do this. Thats awesome. Great vid.

Dee Campbell inside they also have a one-use-only blanket that they cover themselves with.

Ravena not sure who told you they were one use only, it’s a thick woollen fire blanket that can be used multiple times.
@@GrandAdventuresAustralia I understood their comment as "one-per-person"-use, not one-time-use
1,000 liters a minute to save your house. A lawn sprinkler to save themselves. Pure valor.
What is the minimum amount of water that has to be left in the tank incase this drill has to be used? And how much water a min does it use?
1L
750L. It will provide roughly 5 minutes of protection.
The water for this system comes from another tank that can't be used for anything else. You can run the truck out of water and still have this protection.
Joseph Astier Makes sense mate cheers 👍🏻🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

I feel like those guys in the back would be much safer if they got in the cabin.
No room. The heat screens are well enough to keep them safe
fireies battle a deadly foe, no different to combat commandos in war, if not worse! I have new respect!

got a link?
@Aidan Bavinton doesnt need to be on youtube for me to have a link
Realistically, they fit all of the people into the cab but when needed they will use the back space.
I'm amazed that there is enough oxygen to sustain life in these situations . CO levels must be high as well . Crazy .
Not gonna lie this is badass. Does it also spray water onto the tires to keep them from bursting?
ye
@@barsdogukankarakoyun8798 thats pretty interesting.
@@Error-5478 simple yet effective, you can see individual sprinklers from side shots if you look at tirewells
This is awesome, but it should be noted it's only going to be effective to a certain point. I would say lighter fuel types but this wouldn't save you in big timber.
750 litres is the ABSOLUTE minimum. Should run for about 45 minutes at 450 kpa i think

God Bless you guys

i know at least one guy up front survived but what about the two in back?
I would want to be inside the Cab!
Franga town fire truck. 👍🏼
I would feel much safer in the cab rather than in that open hatch!
Where did the 2 in the back get oxygen in the burn over?
They don't, it's the limited amount in that area
I don't think American fire trucks have this ability and i hope it makes it over here very quickly.

It must be like an oven in there when caught in a fire.
PS: Small fire trucks.
Must suck to be in the back seat - probably feel slightly safer in the cab.
coolspot18 closer to the water lines in the back.
150lpm @ idle (
long live ISUZU !
Those flimsy curtains wouldn't survive direct flame.
so why cant the system be built on houses ?
David Baker external sprinkler system have been available for homes for sometime now. Very effective.
There's a huge difference between fighting a fire in a construction and one surrounding it.
Sprinklers are mandatory on certain size of buildings.
Anyone is free to install such equipment on their own house ...
In case of fire, exit vehicle.
Hop in cabin.
Activate water sp
people in the back would still get fried.
That didn't apply to that one Aussie that slammed right into the other truck in 2015
Chicho Diaz they didnt have any water left. Driver tried to get into the other trucks spray
@@firefighter_dj also they had the CFS Ute there as well and in a burnover drill were vehicles who dont have water or the actual burnover equipment the trucks try to lineup to allow the other vehicles to hide behind them.

i would not want to be in the back
Came here coz of dashcam
Two mistakes
1. The time between the horn and whistle is too slowing a burn over it should be exactly 10to 20 seconds
2. The paper on the dash should have been moved because of the radiant heat that can cause a fire to starting the cab
GAMER FROST JUMP 3. They should have jumped out with a deckline to check the truck before packing the blinds away.
its just showing the public what it actually is. not a full 100% serious burnover drill
no gloves
slackjawedyokel1 Good thing it’s just a demonstration and not the real thing then, isn’t it?
@@AJ-dv7hf yes -one thing I agreed 100% with chief Brunanci was "you train like you play"
What it looks like when they have to use this in a real situation - th-cam.com/video/SIHIsSJ2Txk/w-d-xo.htmlm53s
so when the flames hit...the water helps guide it to the men?...would it not be better to have the water spraying on top of them...away at the flames.....I want to pick straws on who sits in back...
Both have the same amount of protection. Cab would just feel "safer"
The crew is also wearing fire blankets and a backup air supply.
