“Answering burning questions” is a wild thing to say.
That made me laugh so hard
@@josephsanchez29102 firemen were arguing over how best to contain a forest fire. It turned into a heated debate.
With all the manpower how are we still 0% contained. What community meeting, everyone is evacuated. So many questions.
because fighting a wildfire in real life isn't like a movie?
Even if progress is being made, there is some delay in officially calling a section of line contained. This is to make sure the firefighters are sure it is contained and no flareups threaten the line.
@@riverr780thank you. This sounds more logical to me
Because you don't understand what containment of a wildfire means.
The fires are dead out and have been since Wednesday night. There is absolutely zero danger from fire or flooding at this point. I ignored evacuation orders and boy am I glad I did. I'm in the downs and there is absolutely zero chance of fire or floods. It's just been raining steady for 3 days. The government set the fires and now they are lying to everyone about what's going on.
Our prayers are with you 🙏 ❤
Answering some burning questions. Seriously, dude?
IKR 🙄
Allow to return so how and makes the decision to keep land owners out after the fire is past
I missed fighting wildfires, as former Navajo Scouts firefighter. I miss them days when I was younger. Some people appreciate firefighters some criticize us. Fighting wildfires is a dangerous job only the brave Make a career out of firefighting.
you likely had experiences no one could ever imagine. Good for you! Like "basic training", but not for 8 weeks, more like all the time and up at altitude to boot! cheers to your!
As a person that lived in ruidoso for 30 yrs ,A BIG THANK YOU TOO ALL THE FIRE FIGHTERS THAT PUT THERE LIVES ON THE LINE TO PROTECT THE PUBLIC, I RETIRED FROM N.M.D.O.T. WE WORKED SIDE BY SIDE WITH FIREFIGHTERS AND LAW ENFORCEMENT THANK YOU.
@mltndeal5120,
I appreciate you brother. Thank you for having the courage and bravery to do this kind of work most people have no idea.
a few years back we had Wildfire really close to home caused by the BLM, operating a stump grinder without the exhaust spark arrestor. The most amazing thing was the homes were spared because the firefighters got between the fire and the home and suppress the fire before it could burn the home down.
everything around the house burned all the trees everything was gone but the homes still stood thanks to these men! never seen anything like that in my life.
Weird how the trees look undamaged.
yeah it is. and its due to the speed of the fire moving so fast. We see that in the BLM behind our cabin from the missionary ridge fire in 2002 outside Durango. At the time it got close to this subdivision, reverse 911 calls were made saying prepare to evacuate, then 5m later another call saying get out NOW. All due to the high winds.
22yrs later aspen groves are already 15-20' tall and spreading heavily, looks great in some areas. Most gullies that were burned are now full of aspen as well. The young ponderosa pines are about 5-10' tall, oak brush every where. There's heavily burned areas and there's areas that we're untouched. many strange things occur in a fast moving fire; like fire tornados flipping vehicles that are parked away from the fire in a safety zone.
Friends house burned down. Two trees right next to it are still standing, completely unscathed.
@@onthehill3381 - dew. See fires in Paredise California and in Maui
High winds and some trees are healthier than others
Wtf were u guys thinking with that burning questions BS?
God bless everyone affected , and prayers for all the firefighters and families
Sooooo----another "wild fire" in which a car's engine block can be melted---but near-by the trees are still standing?
I live...lived? There. And i can tell you it was not lightining, and the fact that both fires started with peak high winds and they were able to block 2 of the 3 roads in/out of the town is man made.
What about the conditions in Ruidoso Downs, please?
Burning Questions
Get. Them. Food. Waters. Help. Them. World
Griffin, you should be fired for your insensitivity and/or apologize for your 'burrning' question statement!
It was very rude and unprofessional one his part. Very inappropriate
Man, people are such snowflakes.
Colorado is sending an army of wildland fireman & their support equipment. Also a search & rescue team.
Griffin Rushton classy wording during so much pain.
Keeping people away from their property for extended period just causes future mistrust and more people will refuse to evacuate when needed. This is not a good look and the nation is watching.
until people are let in en masse and something happens to get a bunch killed. then its gonna be "WHY WERE THEY LET BACK IN?" people all think they have the answers in a disaster. smh.
So sad😢I was there it was beautiful and all the animals walking around
What the hell is going on? Where is the help? Where is our so-called government? This is disgusting.... Same BS over and over .
The governor declared a state of emergency and Biden declared a federal emergency for the fires and damages. What all do you expect the government to do to stop out of control wildfires other than everything they are currently doing?
Resources, including more equipment and fire fighters, from 10 states are working this emergency. The government did that too.
Riiiight. I can imagine a victim saying....."My house is still standing but thieves emptied it of it's contents". ☹
It is New Mexico…….
Hollow points would be the answer if residents were allowed to return. Looters can get in, why not homeowners….
With rain how can u have 0% containment it won't burn it self out
My friends dad is working on the fire in New Mexico
Weather rains? ?
Get real it’s been destroyed. What is there to steal it melted
But it do needs woter to

Burning questions.
Undersheriff Martinez's body language and the way she laughed is very disappointing.

I live in Ruidoso downs and I'm here right now typing this on my front porch. I ignored evacuation notices, and I'm glad I did. So many lies right now from the Man. Allow me to set things straight.
Both fires are dead out 100%. If I dumped gasoline on my yard and set it on fire it would be out in 3 minutes. The ground is wet.
There is zero flooding, it's totally BS. It was an average summer monsoon rain storm. Like half an inch over 6 hours. Absolutely nothing here is in danger from fire or floods at this point (Friday night).
The feds are the real issue they have blockaded the city from the outside world and won't let anyone come back to there houses despite the total lack of danger. Animals are straving to death city wide. The fires are also highly suspicious and have been lied about many times. They claimed it was lighting first but there was not a single cloud for 200 miles the day they started.
I was curious as to why there are no updated videos/footage from within the town, just replay after replay of same stuff the day it started. Something doesn't seem right, but good for you standing your ground. Godspeed to you Sir 👍

Waters. Buckets. Waters. Bottles.

Bring the rain!
This is microwave activity. Trees and overhanging leaves not burned while metal and glass is vaporized! Hello, Lahaiana ! Resort areas usually targeted like those in Alberta last year..
don't evacuate because they never let you go back to your property. best to stay on your property. don't listen to: "we're from the gov't, & we're here to help you"
Great point ...the government here to help 😂
4 relative's were in the first group to be evacuated.. sadly they're now homeless 😢 🙏🏼
Ridiculous take.
Bad advice!!!
Did you see height of the flames and the melted cars? You don’t stand a chance in the path of a fire that hot and massive!
you gonna take responsibility for this advice when someone gets killed? get off the internet, pull that tin foil hat off, and act like an adult. this isn't a game.
Who started t?
How do you know it wasn't lightning? ?
They have one in custody and are looking for the other three
What would people have in their homes that’s so valuable. Listen to the authorities let them do their job and stay put. Geez
U trumpers are ridiculous, already going off with your conspiracies
This is about the fires. Not politics 😡
White reporter? WOW.
I love being a lonely introvert. Not my problem as long as it isn't effecting me. But this story is entertaining. Not much happens here.
Thank you KOB 4 for the update 👍🧓
