  • For our latest unboxing review we have for you a fire truck. Yes. A fire truck. You're welcome. We're always looking for new and cool cars and trucks to unbox and many of our loyal viewers are constantly giving us suggestions. A fire truck was one of them and we delivered. Without question this is one of the coolest reviews we've ever done and it wouldn't have been possible if it weren't for the Palo Alto Fire Department in Stanford, California. Thanks again guys! So kick back and relax. We know you've always wanted to see what's inside a fire truck, along with all of the gear and, of course, its 100-foot ladder. Get ready for some awesomeness. Enjoy!

    My department has a 95’ ladder truck. It’s not a filler like this one but my dad was a firefighter that was scared of heights. He went up on the ladder and was scared to death but he saved many people.

    The "tiller" firetruck is a delicate sample of the most advanced American Engineering applied to ladders signed by PIERCE. Awesome!!

    I'm an EMT and a department in my area calls their tiller "the million dollar toolbox." They don't have any high-rises or building big enough to warrant the 100' ladder in their area, but the old chief wanted one anyway hahahaha

      @2nddue74 7 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      This is actually a reserve truck shared with Mountain View.. While PAF may not need the aerial it would be a good replacement for their Rescue. If I remember correctly, the Truck was somewhat cheaper because it's a tag on for San Jose's contract with Pierce.

      they're usually used for their maneuverability not height

      AShadowbox Not knowing where you're from, you don't need 'high-rises' to warrant a 100' aerial. Really long offsets on residential single or two story buildings can easily exceed 75' (the shortest aerials, usually on single axle trucks) to 110' ladders. Also, you don't have to have just buildings. Every town has water towers, cell phone towers, high tension power lines, or radio antennas in their response area which, when rescuing a worker or civilian looking to make sure Becky knows he loves her, if you don't have a TRT that's High-Angle qualified, or even available you'll want that 100' aerial. Lastly, truck companies carry tons of extra tools beyond what is on a standard pumper or even a rescue pumper. San Jose, a fire department that borders Pablo Alto in some places, used to run two piece truck companies. The aerial and a light unit/rescue. They found that by buying TDAs (Tractor Drawn Aerials) they had more compartment space and therefor didn't need the second piece anymore. Also, TDAs are FAR more maneuverable than a standard rear or mid-mount aerial allowing them to get in to tighter spaces, like apartment complexes, narrow streets, or streets with cars on both sides, than a RM of similar ladder length.

    I was at the Fire Truck museum in Tempe, Arizona last week, and just watched the video about the Pierce production plant in Wisconsin and found this after. I'm a gearhead. Love cars and trucks, especially engines. I could stare at this rig all day man. Detroit Diesel baby! 6 cylinders of pure American monster torque! Pour that diesel on!! Imagine the old timers back in the day driving this thing WITHOUT power steering, power brakes, or an automatic transmission!!! Until the 1970s tillers just as big as this one had no power steering on either end, and the transmissions were manual and not even syncro (you had to double clutch when shifting each gear)..... God bless all of our first responders - firefighters do things I couldn't even think about.

    Excellent video on our Aerial Ladder Truck ( Tiller) with the assistance of two of our best Firefighters, Matt and Orley. I retired (2007) as a firefighter on PAFD T-6 when it was a Quint. That means that it also had its own full size water pump ( 1500GPM)so it could make its own fire hydrant connections and supply itself without the need of a fire engine to provide the water and pressures needed. It was ok and it replaced a Grumman AerialCat that had a 95 foot platform. THAT was a awesome rig that I started on. Our department personnel worked for many years to prove to our City why the need was necessary to upgrade from the Quint ( Straight Frame) to a TDA ( Tractor Drawn Aerial). One thing that most civilians do not realize is the specialized classed we must always take to be up to date with our apparatus such as Aerial Dynamics. It is a very specialized course dealing with the actual operation of the ladder, using angles and math formulas when extending the ladder and calculating the additional weights when firefighters are on the ladder and the extension of the ladder. Thats just one of hundreds of classes that ALL firefighters around the US and other Countries must learn about. No time for just sitting back and playing cards. PS, your youtube site is excellent.

My city had a few large crash tenders dispatched through bedroom community streets to get at a stubborn fire raging in a commercial estate.

  • @blue.light.fazbear
    @blue.light.fazbear 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Such a cool fire engine! Here in the UK fire engines are very different. Our ladder units in the UK are dedicated ladder units that don’t have the lockers and water pump like this one does. The ladder would be connected to a “pump” (a standard fire engine) which has all the equipment and the water pump and water would be pumped through it. Basically in our spec, this would be a pump and a turntable ladder combined together. They are also built very differently, American trucks are made by a company (in this case Pierce or E-ONE) who would make the entire unit all self-contained and built as one unit. British fire engines used to be built the same way (Dennis was a company that made fire engines in that way) but nowadays, we use lorry (truck) chassis (such as a Scania or a Volvo) and a company (like EmergencyOne or Angloco) would convert it into a fire engine by adding lockers or ladder units on the back or in some cases command units or specialist equipment like high volume pumps etc. There are also some other differences such as equipment and configuration of the lockers and stuff like that
    Edit: I later realised this vehicle doesn’t have a pump, nor does it have a platform, therefore some of the stuff I said here is a bit incorrect, sorry

    Very interesting and informative vid. Good job. Shows us, the public taxpayer, where some of our money goes. I’ve always believed that our life and property savers should have every tool or device available that helps save us, or protects them, or makes their job easier, so they can make it home to their families and return another day to do it all again.
    Thank God, or your higher power, that we have enough male and female volunteers to fill the boots of our armed services, police, fire, and EMT departments. My last comment is a question. How would you like to wash and wax this new rig?

    Thank you for this video. I always wanted to see, how a tiller ladder drives exactly. Here in austria we have also 100 feet ladders, but they are mostly built on much smaller chassis with only two axes, and they carry not so much equipment, mostly things that are needed specially for the ladder use. What also is a great difference, austrian ladders always have a foldable platform (basket) on the top of the ladder. And they are not so shiny.

    • @YouTubehndl

      @@hkbricks7855 ok we just take a second truck to the call for the rest of the equipment since our trucks are way smaller we don't have the problem of not fitting anywhere but we still reach 100ft. That's one thing, everything in the US is bigger ;) , but I still prefer towers. It is way easyer to rescue people with a tower since they don't have to climb down and working with e.g. a chainsaw is way saver.

      lu schmiedt In the city of San Jose we have 7 tillers and 1 truck. The 1 truck isn’t a bucket it is like the tiller but smaller. The reason why most cities goes for tillers as they are more easier to move. Ex having a tower in a cul de sac, the only way for it to get out is to back out. Compared to a tiller it could turn around depending on how far it is in the cul de sac. The tiller also carries much more equipment compared to a tower.

    How heavy is the fire truck and how much does it weigh.

      Our ladder trucks are around 75,000 lbs. I would imagine that's pretty close to the same.

    Does the tiller control some break pedal? Just in case he sees he's going to hit the curb or a car

      No, the Tillerman only has a steering wheel. But he is in contact with the driver by intercom. After a while the Tillerman knows the drivers ways and habits and they get comfortable with each other. About the only time it gets pucker factor is when someone pulls out in front of you. We really don't drive that fast or out of control. You don't want to hurt a expensive piece of equipment going to a f a or a fd and cgu. (fell down and can't get up) When you get a new piece of equipment you don't want to put the first scratch on it.

      They're plugged into the exhaust of the truck when it's inside so that fumes don't remain in the bay.

      That's the plymovent, it is a system of connected suction tubes that hooks up to the exhaust, when the truck starts, that tube pumps the trucks exhaust out through a vent on the roof.

    How does one "unbox" a firetruck

  • @84953

    I see that they do a nice job of securing the extra air bottles for the scba units. The backpacks with the tanks and all look like they're free standing in the compartments. That's scary! If an oxygen cylinder pressurized to 2200 psi can go through a single, or even double brick wall without hesitating if the valve were broken off, think what would happen to one that is filled as much as 5500 psi. You're talking about anywhere from 2200 psi to 5500 psi through a 1/4" hole. In essence, you've got a missile on your hands.

    • @2009dudeman

      Likely those bottles are bottomed out on their individual compartments and snugly fit in by that door. Besides, those videos of tanks shooting through walls is when they have a few feet or more to build up speed, these have inches. I'd bet they'd still bend the door way out of shape, but likely not shoot out.

      You're probably right about that I hadn't thought about that. However, I'm not convinced about the ones at 5500 psi. LOL That aside, one of those things does go off, you might have another rescue as the noise might scare the driver bad enough to have an accident.

    • @2009dudeman
      @2009dudeman 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree, though i'd think the biggest danger would be when the door is opened, perhaps to remove another bottle, if the fit isn't snug and the truck were on an incline the bottles might slide out. Not sure if that possible with the design, but i'd still like to see some safety straps.

    • @xXLoneDroneXx1

      Those are 4500 psi bottles, not 5500. We had a 2200 psi bottle by the same manufacturer as theirs, that was condemned, so the only logical way to dispose of it was to shoot it. I can confirm, that even at 2200 psi, it had to have gone at the very least 100 feet in the air. But I digress, SCBA bottles are extremely durable and you really, really, have to be trying to knock the valve off or damage the cylinder to achieve rocket status.

    • @84953
      @84953 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      LoneDrone, I just took a quick reference from the internet so far as pressures go, but there are SCBA tanks that are filled to 5500 psi so far as I know. I suppose the biggest safety advantage to these tanks is that most if not all of them are aluminum, and compared to the big "H" tanks of gas, they are quite a bit bit safer. However, the bottom line is that the valves are made of machinable brass which makes it somewhat brittle, certainly not like glass, but never the less. Yeah, I remember hearing stories from a Viet Nam about how they would entertain themselves by breaking the valves off of tanks and watching them fly. LOL I seem to recall one story of having to clear stuff off of a building where there were leftover cylinders left by the construction crews and their solution was to "fly" them off (put them on their sides and break the valves off). LOL
