PRE-ARRIVAL AT FULLY INVOLVED HOUSE FIRE - SYOSSET NY
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 ก.ย. 2022
- At 16:41 the Syosset Fire department was alerted to reports of fire out the windows at 43 Bluebird Dr. Due to numerous calls a fast truck was started out right away. Chief 5802 was quickly on scene and transmitted a working fire. E585 was the first due engine and TL582 was the first due truck. The fire was brought under control in about a half hour.
I'm so very grateful that the filmer filmed this in landscape mode and not portrait mode, and that he also held the camera still.
It's not even my house but I hurt inside knowing so many unreplaceable items were lost in that fire. Such a beautiful home too!
The house is probably a total loss.
Same. It sucks losing those things because they are often memories not some material... over time its just a story
thats why in germany you have what is called a "Hausratsversicherung" wich in those cases resets all what was lost in something like this aslong as it isnt your own fault.

How heart wrenching! 😰 I lost my house, everything I owned & all but 2 of my animals (the firemen resuscitated them) to a bad fire in April 2020. No matter how prepared you think you are, with fire extinguishers, safety plans, etc.. it all pretty much flies out of the window when you're standing face to face with a wall of fire! Scariest ordeal that I've ever been through.. it has haunted my dreams every night since. I basically relive it every night.. its exhausting! My thoughts are with the people who just lost their home. 🙌🏼🙏🏼
I am so sorry, that is horrific. I hope in time it doesn't haunt your dreams, and you have peace. ❤
That is just awful to hear you went through that and still battle the PTSD caused by the trauma. Thank goodness your pets survived otherwise I imagine it would have been even more traumatic for you. I can't imagine the “what if’s” scenarios you’ve had to deal with also. Good luck to you and hopefully time will help heal some of the trauma.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
My home burned in 1975.
It was a 275 year old, former boarding house back in the war.
It happened during an ice storm.
I do know how you must feel. God bless you.🤗🌹
@@Laura-re9ye During an ice storm non the less. Like that just pisses me off lol.
I’m sorry you had to go through that. If you can, please try to talk to someone about your stress, don’t suffer more than you have to!
and this is a 100% volunteer department. Most if not all responded to their quarters from a job!!!! Very nice job.
That would explain the firefighter I saw walking toward the scene with the gear in a duffle and arriving most likely in a private vehicle. having been a member of a volunteer fire rescue brigade in Beaverlodge Ab.
you can tell they were not union workers lol
"100% volunteer department"...
Which is ridiculous in a massive suburban area like this. They should be a 100% PAID department, with every town around them, so they wouldn't have to come from home or a job. Even my RURAL volunteer dept. is going to start a part time paid day shift for better response. There's a place for volunteers, but this is not it. The citizens need to ante up and properly fund a paid FD. Even shitholes like Gary Indiana have paid FD's.
Not very well trained either.
@@ffjsb paid doesn't equal better service
@@PeaceToAll-sl1db Better? They should be. Faster? Almost certainly. Fires can spread incredibly quick and a paid fire service is typically going to be able to turn out at least 2 minutes sooner than a volunteer service. Arriving on scene and getting water on it those couple minutes earlier can make a huge difference depending on the fire.
For the amount of fire, once they opened up the 2nd handline. They knock it down quick.
Thank you to all firefighters everywhere for protecting the citizens of your coverage area..
I live right behind that house and pieces of the house were landing in our backyard. We saw the family escape out the back door. A police officer came to our house and evacuated us in case the fire spread to our house. It’s crazy to think that if there were more wind that day our house could have burned down too.
Are you Sam from wood working period 1R
@@Davvvidd yeah lol
what was the cause of the fire? Seems to have gone up quickly.
@@greytangel754 Most likely it was Pseg when they were working with the electrical it might have cause a power surge that made a spark
@@greytangel754 the houses being made of shitty cheap siding
If that’s a volunteer fire department, they deserve an award! Outstanding response.
It’s a volunteer department, located in Nassau county Long Island
Despite being so heavily populated, I know of no paid fire departments on Long Island. I don't want to knock them because they are very dedicated and professional, with many staffed by firemen from the FDNY on their days off, but in a lot of cases, the response times can't be as quick as a paid department. I lived 2 blocks away from the main firehouse in one of those towns and remember many of times how the siren would go off and the delay of trucks leaving the station. I could even tell by the engine sound, what truck was going. Again, not knocking any firemen, just the system for what people on the island pay for taxes. Even ambulances in many places are all volunteer.
If you can find it, look for a series of articles called "Fire Alarm" that the Newsday did around 2008 on them. What's shocking is that these departments combined have more equipment that the FDNY and L.A. County combined.
All fire departments, in both Nassau and Suffolk counties, are fully volunteer.
@@DJL0455 Long Beach still has a paid engine company plus paid FFs on one of their ambulances and I think a paid driver on one of their ladder trucks.
EDIT (10/24/22): This is not to say any departments on the island are mostly or fully paid outside of the airports and military facilities. Long Beach is still mostly volunteer, and every other department on the island is almost completely volunteer at least on the fire side, though many in recent years, especially in Suffolk, have begun employing paid EMS personnel too.
@@thisissparta789789 Quite a few also have paid EMS
I thought they'd only try to save the surrounding houses at THAT point, but they really managed to put it out, and FAST. Incredible work!
LOL imagine if they were spraying the other houses
Was almost thinking the same at first. But noted the fire appeared to be on A side only. Curious to know what line was pulled first...2 1/2 or smaller. Didn't seem like alot of pressure from view. Anyway, good job on knock down.
Outstanding steadiness, camera angle, editing, positioning, etc! 😊
(Photo courtesy of FASNY) Among Long Island’s 179 volunteer fire departments, there are nearly 21,000 volunteer firefighters. In Nassau County, there are about 9,500 volunteers, and while that number has remained pretty consistent over time, the factors affecting their demand have continued to change.
Where did you copy and paste this from?
I lost my partner in a house fire in the UK. It is the most horrifying event of my life, something i'm still struggling to cope with. rip my beloved Jayne Jarman Addyman, I miss you so very very much xXx.
I'm so sorry that happened to u and for ur loss ❤😭
Condolences to the homeowners for their loss. But major credit to the firecrew for a highly proficient job knocking this fire down so fast and effectively. Extremely impressive! And good camera work, too. As a professional photographer I've been on-scene for quite a few local fires myself and while tragic, it never fails to impress me the amount of work and effort the firefighters put into fighting these fires.
Looked like sloppy work to me! They moved slow and were blasting parts of the house all over the neighbors house! No technical prowess at all. Just stand there with a hose blasting water at the house. What's so skilled about that!!!!
@@vikings844 The one real fault I could see was that it took a long time for someone to check the back side of the house to see just how much was involved. The structure was probably close to a total loss by the time they arrived.
@@vikings844 its super difficult to control the hose and aim it right. they have a heavy gear. and fire doesn't just go out in one blow it takes minutes to put out a small area
Less that 60 seconds from arrival to first hose pumping, that's impressive.
@@vikings844

What a stud you are - LOL!!
#FirefighterWannabe😂
That's a hell of a good volunteer department, wow. Nice job!
The efficiency of the firemen and the water pressure on that Ladder truck was awesome.
As a retired deputy chief I’ve always told my men and women, never be on the bad end of a TH-cam video….move with purpose!
That’s interesting to say. I’ve watched so many videos and I think some of the fire fighters knew they wouldn’t make it including battalion fire chief Pfizer. He was the first to go in the north tower he set up command post in the lobby. The ports authority said its above the 0 floor.
And these guys did a terrible job, but those people that know NOTHING about firefighting praise these slow pokes because they see edited film of water being applied.
Not a good fire attack x 5.
A SPECTACULAR job by the firefighters on the hand lines the first due pumper and the truck company all worked together for a great stop.
Your 'handle' says it all: 'You Must Be Kidding'. When I was in college in the late 70's, I worked Crash Fire Rescue at the local International Airport. We were trained to attack with everything we had in the first few moments of contact, not stand around waiting for follow-up units with a single 1-1/4" line in our hands. They had the manpower, the equipment and the water supply, everything they needed for an aggressive attack.
@@JB91710 …Shut up. I can’t believe you’re still out here trolling.
@@JB91710 …We know we know…deck gun blah blah blah. The reverse lay to hydrant and leaving front of house open for aerial was the absolute right move so lock it up.
@@smal1393 Exactly.
@@JB91710 Pa. is much worse.
This edited video that jumps around still shows that it took a very long time before water touched flame. They moved police cars, a Chief SUV and their Engine, hand laid Supply lines before water from one was line used. After arrival of a ladder truck, another line was activated.
I just watched a similar situation on TH-cam where the first engine activated the water canon immediately upon arrival, which had a major controlling effect on the fire. Supply lines were hand laid, then two more lines used to attack the fire.
Please post that link. Most FD's don't know how to use their equipment.
Heartbreaking, such a lovely home. Thank God no one was hurt! Excellent job by the firefighters. Superb videography and photography!
A lovely home made of wood. That flammable stuff that tends to burn quite well. Sensible countries build houses with brick, block or concrete.
Fire destroys brick and stone structures all the time. Your comment has no merit.
All they did was aim water at the house! I wouldn't called that excellent or skilled! If they saved the house that would be excellent!
F😊❤❤ टीटी 🎉😢😮 पी
@@vikings844 Ok, Vikings, I see nothing but negative comments from you, but I doubt you could do better. A house with that kind of construction and a fire that active upon arrival could easily have burned to the ground. I've seen fires like this take structures plenty of times. These guys did a good job of getting it knocked down.
Shocking how quickly the fire expanded, how large it got and how quickly it consumed the house.
I don’t know the size of this department but very well trained. They knocked this fire down very quickly. Everyone moved with purpose and performed their jobs without hesitation.
Had the house out in five min. Those fireman know their job !
Boy, this FD has some beautiful rigs! Love the dark red. Great job by the First Due.
The petroleum house. Vinyl siding, linoleum floors, synthetic stain master carpet and furniture and drapes, plastic electrical boxes, liquid nails adhesive, all of it extremely flammable. Houses built close together to spread the fires. I've watched over a hundred house fire videos, these houses are completely engulfed in less than ten minutes. It was designed to be this way by these spirits who are obsessed with fire. Mostly two story homes. Plastic gas shutoff valves and pilot light control valves on the water heater. These houses are all connected to a high power line of 10,000 volts through a transformer barrel filled with vegetable oil acting as a resister. Power surges can melt plastic electrical boxes, cheap imported switches, adjustable lights, cheap light fixtures can overheat and spark fires leaving people inside with less than 5 minutes to get out. Now people are recharging electric cars and mopeds, scooters powered by lithium batteries. Most houses have maybe a half inch garden hose.
Cities need to buy water tank trucks holding 3,000+ gallons with a water cannon and a boom with a penetrator sprayer tip they can drive up and punch through walls and inject water quickly. All home owners need to have at least a 3/4 inch hose and fire extinguishers.
LLXIIX77
Great work by the fire department but it's shocking how quickly that fire spread. Clearly the use flammable materials in the construction of the house contributed to the raging inferno this became in minutes. A brick-built or concrete house without plastic or oil-based cladding would not have burned so quickly.
😅
Wow! Excellent job in putting this out! Made me tear up thinking about this families loss.
Exactly, I am happy but little sad because they have lost everything I mean the victims
I’ve been watching a lot of FDNY videos lately and I think they need to take a lesson from this fire department. That was a fantastic knockdown. One of the best I have ever seen. Great job.
Excellent work getting the fire contained and knocked down. Radio call time 17 minutes right after the heavy fire exterior was gone.
Hey 👋 ❤😮
everyone should know these are all volunteers, our community keeping each other safe.
Had a home in Alta Loma CA way up Archibald Ave, last home all the way up a block long private driveway, lost it in a wildfire, came right down that mountain and my home was the first thing the fire saw, burned down two fire trucks right there in my driveway, lost everything, luckily no one was hurt and by the time it was all over and done with Farmers Fire Insurance settled for two times what I paid for the home and sold the bare property for more than I paid for it when purchased, great payoff, should have kept it - but invested in Las Vegas Real-estate and pretty much lost 80% of it - smh
Could not imagine coming home to this. So sorry for the owners.
Water on the fire right away! Nobody standing around! Great job! Thanks first responders!
What's your definition of, " right away"?
Watched it again, it's edited and took closer to 3 minutes. The goal is water on the fire in less than 60 seconds. And they chose the wrong attack line ! Terrible job.
Thank you camera person for not giving us one of those stupid vertical videos.
The most efficient Fire Dept. I have seen on TH-cam to date. I'm sure you saved a lot of precious memories and personal items for these poor people. Hats off to all involved.
You need to see some of David Decker videos.
This was anything but efficient.
This was slow and tacky.
Ever watched anything from Stockton FD?
I had an allergic reaction to a house fire down the street about 10 minutes before fire engines screamed past. I looked out and walked down to find the kids it the house crying. It took them another 15 minutes after arrival to do anything. The smoke became exposed fire in that time. One of those kids was my student last year. The house was rebuilt so much bigger than it used to be
In 6 min time they took a fully involved structure fire down a few whisps of smoke and steam. VERY nice work!
Great job guys, good to see water put on immediately instead of watching it burn to the ground along with other houses. Well done.
The house is destroyed so it really makes no difference does it.
That was the best, most efficient and effective knockdown yet I’ve ever seen on TH-cam. Amazing work is an understatement!! 👍 👍 Almost a complete knockdown by hand lines even before the stick was in the air, and even getting the Truck set up was amazingly fast!
A three (3) second burst at 500 gpm from deck gun using 25 gallons, had lowered fire intensity by 90%, 20 seconds after applying parking brake.
You need to watch more videos, these guys didn't do a great job.
Sad to see such a beautiful house burn up so fast. The materials used nowadays just make small fires into huge fires quickly as seen with this fire. God Bless every Fire, Police, EMT, and civilians that worked to put this fire out. Keep up the great work you all do daily!!
It's the contents of our homes now too. So many artificial fabrics, foams, etc. It used to take on average almost 30 minutes for a room to flash over say 50 years ago. That's now down to under 10 minutes.
made in china burns fast
New homes are made of sawdust and glue
If only there were a system that the builders didn't fight each Code cycle...... Yeah, I'm talking about residential fire sprinklers!!!
@@anslowp1 Fire damage = House is trashed.. Water damage from sprinklers = Trashed
Watching your own house burn is never easy. My house burned in 77, during an ice storm. Our beautiful first responders did such a great job. Our home had to be remodeled, but no one got injured or killed. Thank you first responders. ❤️❤️❤️🤗🤗🤗🤗
No occupants inside? Perfect job for the insurance company. Kudos to Command for executing an exterior attack. Minimize risk to personnel especially since the thing's gonna get torn down anyway.
Outstanding. Got water on the fire and kept fighting. Too many fire departments lack in these areas.
Got water on the fire...eventually...
Yeah. Too many times I see big departments. Running around like Keystone Kops waiting for "orders" from command while the building burns to the ground. Priority one should be getting water on the fire! PERIOD
@@Og-Judy Many times you may see firefighter on the exterior waiting for a crew interior to do a primary search when a possible victim is inside. The reason no water is applied during that time is that water turns to steam and if there was someone trapped inside the steam would kill them.
I experienced this! Nothing prepares u for the way your life is suddenly uprooted. It took 20 years to accumulate things & it took less than 25 minutes for me to lose it ALL! That's perspective for ya!👍
Good first in. You can stretch hose, you can't stretch ladders. Front of the building belongs to the truck.
I grew up in Syosset in the 50s and 60s, used to love watching the volunteers racing up to the fire house when the siren sounded! This department has been outstanding since then IMHO
Blessings to all firemen and those affected by this fire
Firefighters
Great job guys. Saved two house's with your quick work.
The fire had such a head start, at this point, I think protecting the exposures (the adjoining houses) is their best option.
I've never understood when you train to be a fireman timing is everything, but when at a scene everyone just strolls around like a day at the park
I see you are still bitter that you couldn't become a firefighter
volunteers stroll around at a fully involved scene and you ask if I'm bitter? There's a big difference between volunteers and those who get paid my friend. FF2😉🔥🚒
@@bobwhite3450
Your words prove you've never worked a fire in your life
@@virgilhilts3924 lol ok
Man these guys are great...not a second wasted and it seems like absolutely no miscommunication...fantastic job. Great coverage too
I guess we watched different videos
I takes forever to get the water on that house. So saying not a second wasted, i not accurate. The video is even edited, so that show how long it took to get water on the fire.🤨
I saw little to no hustle in protecting the B or D exposures!
It appears the hydrant was not too far up the street and they did a reverse lay with 2 pre connects in action pretty quickly.
I've been away from the volunteer and paid fire / EMS service for over 8 years now. I see the arm chair firefighters are still here saying what was wrong and what they'd do differently. Yup, just as soon as you get outta that chair..... Honey, can ya bring me another beer?!
Would hitting it at first arrival with the deck gun slowed this fire down or even put it out totally?
Nice work to everybody involved. You handled it well. "Taking Care of Business" should be your theme song at the Syosset Fire Department.
Wundert mich das es nicht zur einer Durchzündung kam(Flashover),Respekt an die Fire station das die den Brand schnell unter Kontrolle gebracht haben
Those firefighters took care of business! Great work everyone!!. Blessings to all firemen and those affected by this fire.
"Everybody Out" response "YEAH" (confidently) then quietly, "Think so" lol
Make sure those packages get delivered and you pull up and stopped right in the middle of a house fire makes sense to me
Such a big and beautiful house
I was surely expecting them to put that deck gun to good use when the first engine rolled up.
ditto
A perfect time to use that pre piped deck gun. I've seen other departments use it in this exact situation with a lot of success.
Great job to Syosset FD and all involved. Glad family was safe.
Nice knock-down. An example of a well trained Department. Everyone knew their job. Kudos.
Casa abajo todos
amazed at how quickly it spread, amazed by how quickly they knocked it down. Very enlightening.
There is no feeling like standing and watching your house burn. I watched as ours burnt in 2018. We had lived in that house for 44 years, having built most of it myself when I was 20. Our house was burnt literally to the ground. We had to go buy clothes the next day as we only had what we were wearing. We only lost a house and now have a nice new one. Worse things had to have happened that day. Someone somewhere suddenly lost a child, parent or spouse, like I say, we only lost a house. Hope the family wasn't hurt and that they had insurance.
Very well done Syosset. Very well done 👍
Iove the work you are doing ❤❤❤
Those firefighters took care of business! Great work everyone!!
From a career and volley FF, well done Syosset. That house was done before you got there. Yep, the rear of the house was intact.... from the video. That fire had fast spread throughput. Outside and inside.
I'm so sorry to the family. Firefighters and police ty for being there for us. This is so terrible and scary.
That is why they have insurance. I feel worse for the homeless camps that get bulldozed away. WE need more housing in this country.
Firefighters protect people. Police just stand around, taze folks, and violate rights.
@@Tomallenny Oh yeah? I feel worse for the dogs and cats in those videos with the Sarah McLachlan song.
@@Cautionary_Tale_HarrisI feel the same way! Our pets are our children! I would make sure that we all got out together!
@@Tomallennywe need to do everything for our homeless citizens! Nobody wakes up one morning and says to themselves, "I strongly feel I need to be homeless from today on to forever!"
Quick work on this one. Well done.
Thats such a sorrow to watch, such a nice house! Stay vigilant and responsible people! And God bless the firemen, for their job!
Great job! It is frightening to know how fast a fire can get a foothold and do so much damage. Glad everyone got out.
Where these guys got on his job got that far out quick I know there’s a process of getting a cold out but man what a good job he’s firefighters deserve a pat on the back of it and I had a boy
Hey 👋
The vinyl siding that they put on houses today are very flammable.
Man, they clobbered this one! Fantastic work.

FASTEST!!?? What the hell video are you watching?
@@j.rcoker9051 smarten up Coker. You have zero understanding of everything regarding what occurs in this video. Zero.
Hey 👋
I saw this as an interesting attack. Didn’t see or hear a 360 given. Might be because it was not a fire unit recording the scene. The attack with the hand lines should have been from the C side not the A side. Push the fire back into the part of the building that has already been burned, don’t push it into unturned house. Also didn’t see any ventilation operations. It was a fully involved structure, but still better tactics could have been used. The fire is out and the house was a loss anyway. Hopefully no one was hurt and the family has good insurance.
He gave it, it said “fully involved”. That’s about it. Not what type of structure or exposures.. etc.
I like hearing that pump run in pressure mode.
Nice work, quick attack
Wow, the Ladder Truck's hose owned that fire :D unlike the 1st responder that arrived, and focused on the old fire, instead of where it was spreading to.
Nice attack and takedown, plus some beautiful work with your deck/deluge gun. The supply engine crew did a nice job hand-laying the 3" supply line into the tower; and it's great that this didn't turn into a "Surround-&-Drown"!
Another awesome opportunity for immediate deployment of the deck gun. That being said, nice knock.
LoL... nope

@@virgilhilts3924 So you don't think that 750 to 1000 gallons of water applied while hose line crews are readied would not improve the outcome of this incident?

A deck gun would have made quiick work of a lot of that exterior fire.
That's not going to rub out! 🚨🔥
Yeah
Great work by command and the crew!
Wow!! Everyone saying great job, has anyone ever heard of a transitional attack?!?!! The first line had almost no pressure or the nozzle wasn’t completely open. The second line and the line on the ladder did a much better job. Hit what’s heavy on the outside then make an aggressive interior attack. Could have saved quite a bit more of the house.
Wow, got it knock off within a short time. Impressive, real impressive.
Amazing job of getting that fire out so quick.
This was nothing short of amazing to me. The first truck pulled up @ 2:06 and they had a hose on the fire @ 3:11, the second engine had a hose on it at 4:20, fire is pretty well knocked down in less than ten minutes. I have seen videos where the fire personnel didn't have a hose on it within ten minutes. These guys are SUPERMEN to me. (disregard these remarks if video is edited.)
Right after 2:27 and 3:06 someone cut out the parts where the truck drives to the hydrant to connect to water to make the crew look good.
Having had a house fire myself unfortunately the water does almost as much damage as the fire itself.
smoke damage is unbelievable too. Our kitchen caught fire and our whole house smelled like smoke for a long time. Even after the insurance sent in a crew to remove the smell
what was the cause?
I'm sorry for your fire loss & agree water does tremendous damage. Just learned about the Plumis Automist Smartscan sprinklers which use much less water to knockdown a fire vs traditional sprinklers. Take care.
Die schönen HÄUSER und VIEL VIEL mehr🤷🏼♀️OH wie schlimm ists auf unsrer Welt🙏KARIN
Pffff trop beau ce camion
Quelle rapidité !!!! Bravo les mecs !!
just like 2 weeks ago my neighbors house across the street caught on fire. I was home alone at the time but literally my mom left like 10-15 minutes before and my brothers bus hadn't come yet. I was just sitting on the couch watching tv and I heard a pop that sounded like a car door shutting so I didn't think anything of it, but the I heard 2 more pops closer together so I was like ok that's not right so I got up to look out the window and their garage is just in flames so I panicked and called my mom, I hadn't seen anyone come out yet so I was nervous but then luckily the girl that lives there got out and was holding one of her dogs. She was also home alone with just her dogs so I can imagine it was very traumatizing for her for sure. When I realized she was alone I went outside (after asking my mom if it was ok) and I made sure she was ok shortly after I went outside the police had gotten there and asked if everyone was out, one of the police went to go get the other two dogs, which were out back so they weren't harmed at all, I took the dog she had with her into my house for maybe 5 minutes cause it was shaking and crying and it was really scared, eventually I took it back outside and gave it to the police officer to put it with the other two dogs. By that time the ladies husband had gotten there cause he was already on his way home. To make this even more stressful on myself this was around the same time my brothers bus would be getting there, they would've been able to pull up closer but more firetrucks started coming so they couldn't pull up where they usually do but luckily I waited by the place they were able to stop at and the bus driver made sure they didn't get off unless he saw me so my brothers wouldn't be confused. I talked to a police officer to tell him there bus would come through just to make sure at least someone knew and then later on sense it was so cold outside and my brothers still had all their bags and stuff I asked that same officer if it was ok for us to go into our house, considering the one on fire was right across the street from us and we live in a court so there isn't as much space. We were able to go inside, which thank god cause I could barely feel my fingers, toes and legs so yeah. By the time they got the fire out it was dark outside so you couldn't really see all the damage as well but by the morning you could really see it all and how it ended up going through the whole house. I am so glad it was just her because it would've been more stressful if multiple people were there at the time, but at the same time I feel bad it was just her home because she had no one there to comfort her in any way. I am so greatful no one got hurt in anyway and that they had a friend who let them stay there considering they have dogs and it's hard to find hotels that allow that. Also I am 15 so it was obvisiouly nerve raking for me too considering I was also home alone and that my brothers were coming home at the exact same time the fire started. If you actually took the time to read all this that's impressive cause I don't know if I would 😅
Hello 👋
Great response Fire Department. No spreading on to other properties. Hopefully no casualties. Our thoughts are with the owners.
Great job getting water on it fast . 👍
Hearing the fire engines off in the distance...one of best sound's in my opinion. I lost my house to a fire, thankfully made it out with the cat's but it was still devastating. But I could hear the fire engine's coming off in the distance and I just relief.
I loved how fast they got the ladder truck in service and how they moved it around that was great work , but with a hydrant so close why not use the deck gun and have the ff set up the supply line ?
EXACTLY!!!!
A remarkable job these firemen did. Very quick response after arrival, good job guys.
Ooopsie! Someone said the bad word "firemen" Could be triggering for some.... Ohhhhh ohhhhh ohhhhh! lol 🤣🤣🤣
Great job, Syosset!!!
"Is everyone out? Yeah I think so" Folks have no idea what kinds of critical decisions must be made with that information!
Do they risk firefighters' lives to search for potential victims or just protect exposures?
Awesome to see the engine leave enough room for the truck to get into position in front of the structure
That’s a great knockdown , lucky residents to have an FD that efficient
@@JB91710 and who cares about the department is in NY it doesn't matter what does matter is everyone is OK and no one was hurt but sadly they lost the whole front of the house but thank god everyone is ok
Bravo 👏 they put that 🔥 out quickly!
First off... Google maps has all 1-story wood-frame ranch houses at this location??? Did they recently bulldoze the neighborhood and rebuild???
Anyway... Kudos to this fire dept! They did an excellent job of recognizing the dangers of lightweight construction and set up defensive operations quickly! They eliminated the hazard (fire) before collapse took place.
Second thing I want to say, is that I've rarely seen a lightweight wood frame survive once a fire goes past "room & contents"! When I say "survive", I mean that the fire damage was cleaned up and fixed by a contractor, and the residents were able to move back into the original structure. The home usually has to be rebuilt from scratch!!!
So that leads me to my next point. If you are a homeowner that resides in a lightweight constructed wood frame building, be advised that the fire dept will not enter the building to put the fire out once the structural members become involved in fire. Once this happens, the potential for collapse can happen within only 5 minutes!!! You may see firefighters enter to search for missing occupants only, and NOT for suppression! It's such a shame that the real estate market is so inflated that they charge top dollar for single family dwellings that are not even designed to keep standing more than 50 years under its own weight!!!
Dave Jobes - Google maps seems to be a couple of years old. Here on Long Island it is common in some neighborhoods for houses to be knocked down and replaced. That old ranch house was probably built right after WWII and most likely had no basement.
You don't have to a Paid to be a well trained professional fire department, nice job, awesome manpower response, great team work .
You're right, but I wouldn't call these guys well trained...
@@ffjsb Not sure what your thoughts are, but they established water supply, got the truck in service, big fire big water and knocked it down quickly. Everyone wearing packs and worked as a team. You can analyze it with a microscope and always find something wrong. And I know I'm right, at 54 and started in the volly service at 14 and grew up in the station with Dad, Uncle and Grandfather as chiefs and over 1500hrs of Fed, state and Local training. That's the problem with Volly companies, everyone wants to judge to harshly creating animosity amongst stations instead of fostering a team environment and training together and doing Incident break down meetings with all involved to learn and improve, but hey there is always that guy that knows everything, but in most cases, they should look in the mirror before they judge.
@@vfdchauffer3606 The initial line WAS NOT "big water". They hit it with a handline, (AFTER doing a reverse lay) from the SIDEWALK. Half the time they were hitting the siding, and not putting water on the fire.
It has nothing to do with specifically a volly FD, but with training.
You don't need to use a microscope to find problems here...
@@ffjsb An immediate
few seconds' blast from that $20k deck gun wouldn't hurt.
@@williammonaciii5491 A deck gun is only around a $3-4,000 option, if that.
