This may be the most fun I’ve ever had filming a video! I hope you enjoyed it! A big thank you to Houston Jones for coming out to film with us! It is always a blast! 
Scott was a Kentucky State Trooper in a previous life. The irony of cops vs. firefighters is so funny in this video. Why do they call firefighters first responders? Nobody knows since the cops actually show up first 😂
@@GregoryGlessnerViolin To be fair, police cars have got to be quite a bit faster than fire trucks and I assume firefighters have to get some gear on. I know that was a joke though and it was funny.
@@brians1793 Yay! Someone who understands reality, but knows a joke when they see one. What a gem! Also, there's a pretty good chance a cop is out on patrol and happens to be near the address of the call.
@brians1793 I drive a pumper tender for my county FD. It can be sketchy to drive, especially over rough roads. Top heavy and the weight shifts. One of the first things that drill into you is to treat it like it can tip over on any turn because it can. Scott's engine isn't quite as bad because it is longer and not as tall as your average modern engine but 1500 gallons at roughly 8lbs per gallon is still a lot of weight before you add the engine. My tender tops out at 70mph pedal to the floor when fully loaded. We don't even run code (lights/sirens) when responding when driving on the interstate because normal traffic is faster than us. Any other road we will though.
The best part about Scott buying a fire truck is you 100% know he's gonna legitimately use it around the property. Truck needs washed? Firetruck! Garden needs watered? Firetruck! Pool needs filled? Firetruck! 😂
Just a frendly warning for your fire truck, its something that was drilled into my head when i was a new recruit in traning. Slamming the bail shut on your hose is really bad for all the piping and fittings inside your truck! Its called water hammer and basically it sends a big shock wave through the whole water system and can cause alot of internal damage. The proper technique is to just close it slowly especially when your running high pressure. Love the content as always!

I was a Fireman in the 1980s. We had a water cannon on one of our trucks. On a training day I flipped a car over with the water cannon. Firetrucks are so much fun when you can just play with it.
Did you guys ever do waterball? Where you take a volleyball and push it around with hoses and/or deck guns etc, it's so fun in the summertime! We did it for some of the local summer festivals and departments would compete against each other and the attendees could spectate in the splash zone.
A 10,000 gallon water tank cost $15,000.00 a used fire truck is a lot cheaper but holds 500-1000 gallons of water. My home fire suppression system...I needed this Scott 🤠 Thank you 🙏 God Bless

I would caution him from getting a quiet exhaust when that engine revs up for the pump - you could make the argument that he is silencing the cannon. ATFW would be all over that...added the W for water. It's coming man.
I remember as driller we had a godwin pump that could empty 5000 gallons in a minute. When we did flow tests on wells we would often have to get rid of the water quickly and used 6" or larger hoses pumped 1400 feet away. Moving water is fun (& dangerous).

Hey Scott, Short Fun fact, as I'm a volunteer firefighter in Germany, we have a youth firefighting force, age 8 to 16, and we train with ~75psig, and aur regular crew trains and fights with up to ~300psig, and it always makes me smile when such strong guys like you or Houston almost get thrown around, and best case next to you two, compared to you, tiny teens are advancing with the same pressure in the hose. Still really nice vid, love your content and keep it up, both you and Houston ;)
The trainers favorite thing to do is tell a class that one at a time they must aim a 300 PSI hose at a fire! Of course it will drag them all over the parking lot like a dog drags a snake!🤭😃😮🚒
only operated a fire hose a couple times in my life, both in training scenarios, but man the first time i opened up the bale on a fire hose you learn how impressive a force water pressure is, and why you need a hose team!
Top notch vid as always cant wait for Houston's video. Hearing that engine rev up at 200 psi is unsettling to hear from the other side of the screen , can only imagine how he feels hearing that but on the other side of the hose.
Absolutely awesome video!! I've been volunteer firefighter 19 years. Been at the end of the line at 300 PSI saying shut it down it was pushing me back with full turnout gear on. Big shout out to all emergency services THANK YOU!!
Well half of me is like, "It's just a truck that was either scheduled for scrap or reuse some how, so it's not a huge loss." And the other half of me is like, "That's probably how a lot of other historical artifacts were lost to time." I can totally see internal combustion engines going this kind of route. Someone gets an old Willy's L134 engine and runs the sucker and experiments to see what it takes to blow it up and that just happens to be the very last one and we no longer know how to build them... That's probably how all the other things from the 90's became ancient artifacts.....1990's that is.🤣
I was a volunteer fire fighter back in my 20s. Let me tell you, at full power, you need three guys on the line to keep it under control. Fire trucks can move a boat load of volume and I remember we emptied a swimming pool during a massive grass fire event in less than 10 minutes with all lines in use. Great, fun video!
When I was 12, me and a bunch of friends were hanging around watching the local volunteer FD doing training exercises at the junior high by tapping into their water feed. It was a hot summer so we all wanted to get wet, so we rode bikes by them and they knocked us all flying. I think I flew 5 feet. Luckily it was onto grass, but I still saw stars and had the shirt ripped off my back. I've had a healthy respect for a firehose ever since.
A small high pressure stream of water about the size of a pencil lead will cut right thru a steel plate! People have lost arms and even HEADS from water and steam!
Hi Scott, When I was a firefighter in the 80's we used to have team competitions called "barrel rolling" played on an outdoor basketball court where 3 firefighters for each side handled the hose in the key of the court and 2 more from each team on the side and the points were scored by pushing the plastic barrel, about ⅓ full of water, from the center to the other side and hold it there for 3 minutes to win a point. Of course, when the other team pushes the barrel out of bounds, the linesman had to push the barrel back in, on the clock. Of course, to distract the linesman of the other side, you hit'em with the hose until the barrel was back in play😂 There was a referee and was played in full bunker gear for protection and if anyone had gear blown off, it was an instant win 🏆 This game made sharpshooting a fire 🔥 much more effective because of muscle memory and directing the stream where and when it's needed. ..and it was a load of laughs 😃 The solid stream hose nozzels are brutal at close range but always remember, never,ever let go of a hose under pressure and open because it will turn into a "wild-snake" if it gets away and I've seen a hose and nozzel take a corner off a concrete block building with gusto before the pumper operator could shut the line down in seconds so be careful with this toy. It's probably more dangerous than most of the other toys you have 😮 so play safe😊
I remember back in girl scouts, we visited a Fire Station, and they basically said that at full blast, the Main Nozzle/Hose on the average Fire Truck could and would literally strip your skin off, possibly right down to the bone. Or in better comparison, a simple spray at max pressure would be like being dragged behind an F-1 car, with your skin/muscle being ripped off, while taking a blast heading would be like getting slammed into by a solid steel wall at near 100-200 miles per minute (or something similar)
I used to refurbish fire trucks, P19, P22, P23 and P24's we would take them and test the pumps by spraying old junked out cars and would watch them roll the cars over like a plastic bag blowing in the wind. Definitely AWESOME!!! Keep that content coming Scott!
When I was in Scouts as a young teen (12 or 13 or possibly 14. So back in 1996 or 1998); We spent a long weekend on the U.S.S. Salem, if I recall the name right. It had lost one of the deck guns in a heavy storm and never got it replaced for the remaining duration of the ships use. I remember that. Anyways, we got to simulate an engine fire. And we got to learn how the hoses work. I got to be at the front, the one who opened the nozzle. Which had to be deliberate, as *as an adult now*, I am 5 feet, 2 inches tall. I was positively pocket-sized as a teen. The all clear came up the line of people holding the hose, I opened up the nozzle, and *WHAM!* went flat on my back from the force. To my credit; I did not release the hose! Though it took a bit of effort to close the nozzle. I was soaked and laughing my butt off.
Scott, as a career firefighter, Stop slamming the valve shut, that sudden stop of water flow causes " water Hammer" can and will damage the pump and piping on the truck... love the video as always man,
@@eriklarson9137 It kinda is important. Assuming Scott will keep the rig as a precaution...He should take care of the pump. A fire truck without a functional pump is just like a tank without its main gun. Powerful, but utherly useless.
Past fireman turned fulltime medic with age and back pain, and I gotta say this embodies some of the best times you can have after a good training and the intrusive thoughts while screwing around with the guys (unapproved by the officers)
Houston is too funny, I am absolutely so happy to see modern(in the last couple years) start featuring each other and other youtubers whether they're gamers, the slo mo guys and anyone else! Bodybuilders? haha. The most wholesome channels are becoming the fire arms youtubers that make wholesome content FEATURING firearms. More entertainment than anything and that's what this platform was intended for, not activism. Keep it up Scott!
Retired FDNY here. Hey Scott, now try advancing the hose line on your knees with high pressure, and wearing around 100 lbs. of gear, in a high heat and stress confined space. Don’t forget all of the lethal tools on the ladder truck.
About to have my second hip replaced at 35 and pretty anxious about it. Everytime I see one of your videos its like seeing a brother do fun stuff. I wish I could get the chance to just get to hang out and ride four wheelers together. I always find comfort and a home feeling watching and thanks from the bottom of my heart, Cody from small town Tx.
@@fdMT_EnGy Couldn’t be any truer, we only have one ladder in my district as we’re all rural volunteer departments with the exception of the one paid city department who has the ladder and our saying is, when the tower goes up, the building comes down.
@@bluecollarwelding2215 True. Same where I used to volly, ladder goes up house comes down. There are videos on TH-cam of where I am now of our tower ladders knocking walls to pieces. I know those truckies have a blast up there...pun intended.
A friend of mine from highschool actually did the opposite. He was a firefighter for years and now works for the sheriff's department back in Arkansas.
I remember when training new fire Fighters we'd sometimes up the pressure and have them use the hoses solo just to watch them fall backwards from the pressure. Great video.
All the incredibly powerful weaponry we’ve seen on this channel, and yet the sight of Houston smiling while playing with a lighter may still be the most terrifying 😂!
Matt builds a fire truck because he literally needed one because of all the insane stuff he does. Scott just says hold my beer and buys a ready made one that he really doesnt need just because his camera man showed him an ad for one. Being a GunTuber must be weird! With that being said, buying one just to see if HJ can survive it was an AWESOME idea and I think that the majority of people will agree.
Check your pump pressure when you’re flowing water. Often times when you open the nozzle the pressure drops. Happy to see you fulfilling every police officers dream of becoming a firefighter!
Oh it definitely drops on a hose that size. You’d need a massive pressure tank type setup if you wanted any hope of keeping that pressure completely consistent, at least on that rig. Still super powerful though.
As a former firefighter 12 years as a driver/operator, the spray can cause injury. They were using a 2.5 or 3 inch hose. At 200psi that translates to around 400-500 gallons per minute. Depending on the pump.
@@brianhamalainen8817would be more like 1400 pounds of force per second because you have 200 psi and about 7 square inches of water exiting from a 3 inch nozzle meaning it would be 700x2 but I'm just now realizing you calculated for the weight of the water not the pressure like I did lmao
@@noodlelynoodle. Yeah, I was going to do those calculation, but I remembered that fire nozzles basically spray 'hollow' sprays of water so figuring out the water cross-section would be pretty tough. (How It's Made has a good video on fire nozzles, that was suggested from this video, and it shows the central core that spreads the water out)
@@brianhamalainen8817 I feel like it would probably come out to about the same amount of total force overall even though it would be less surface area then cause I imagine if it's spreading it like that it's increasing the pressure past 200 psi in the nozzle and concentrating that force down into basically a circular knife of water lmao I could be totally wrong about that but like my thinking is if you're taking a 3 inch hose worth of 200 psi and forcing it through something to distribute it only around the edges like that the pressure must increase
Y’all are a pair of characters! Your collaborations are always funny and entertaining! Houston Jones is a glutton for punishment,I really think that he gets a weird thrill out of feeling pain. He gets a thrill from the pain and he gets paid too,nothing but a win-win situation for him!
Fun fact any fire truck in use today and any fire truck in the last 100+ years have the same thread and pitch meaning you can hook up hoses from a new truck to a retired 1920's truck and hoses will connect
I think that was mandated so that if one truck goes down for any reason another can take its place regardless of age or brand of manufacturer. Just imagine back in the day if one township has a rig crap out on a fire and the other township next door is called in.....Just hook in and go.

As a volunteer Out of Maryland this is hands down one of the greatest videos I have ever Seen! Thanks for doing this I haven't laughed so hard in a long time! Keep up the amazing work
That was just nuts! Also, with you standing with the fire hose between your legs spraying out, it looked very dodgy. The scarecrow looked far better when it revealed itself as a Terminator. You and Houston laughing hysterically as you destroyed the zombie, first by flowing his head off and scalping it, then seeing organs flying when you blasted it point-blank before driving it into the wheel arch of the truck. We saved this for our usual Friday evening Scotfest. You didn't disappoint !!
the funniest part was at about 10:35, they were laughing their asses off at the pressure hitting the zombies head, all happy as can be, and then the head came off and their faces went from happy to panic and i died XD!!!
I was an honorary member of the Laurel County Fire Department in Kentucky when my younger brother was an active member for 6 years. I got to do alot of fun stuff and worked my butt off at the station.
Flowing water is always a blast! You want to slowly open and close the bale as you're flowing to prevent water hammer at the pump. Slamming the bale like that will shorten pump life substantially but the kick is amazing. Try a smooth bore nozzle the next time it fires a straight stream of water for more penetration and the nozzle reaction is more fun too!
I love how it goes from a serious science experiment to 2 grown dudes living life. That laugh is one you share with memories and a good friend, awesome jog on this one, Im jealous
I know you're probably super safe when you do stuff like this. Always make sure someone has positive control of the nozzle before you charge a hose. You do not wanna get hit with a wild hose, that brass nozzle flying around can and will do some serious damage if it were to hit you or someone.
The excitement exhibited by these to gentlemen enjoying a fire hose has the same energy as a couple of kids playing with the garden hose, pure nostalgic joy!
Thank you for that demonstration in my opinion that was absolutely fantastic it tells people the truth about what water can do to the human body thank you both for your excellent content!!
We used a 3" fire hose to wash down the roads at the power station where I worked. At 225 lbs it was all I could do to hold the thing down....and when one of the new guys who weighed about 130 tried to do it....that hose about beat him to death until he let go of it. Just hilarious how much power a little water can have!
I am extremely surprised that your truck survived that. By all rights, the panel should have buckled and the paint should have come off. Huh. Great to see Houston again~! Thanks, fellas~!
Fun fact: in the 1976 movie carrie, an extra PJ Soles was sprayed by a fire hose for a death scene, the fire marshal didn't want to do it, but the stunt coordinator did manned the hose. The full force sprayed forced hit PJ on the side of the head and force her head to turn resulting in the hose blasting into her ear rupturing her eardrum
Here in Germany we only hold such hoses with support rubble or in groups of three firefighters and people are generally not extinguished with water 😉 Great video
This is ridiculous. So yeah, thank you Scott & Houston. THANK YOU... The world needs to lighten up & smile a bit more, this'll do it for me. Praise the cracked, for it is they that let in the light. I have so many questions & you answering them all in an orderly sensible fashion. All about the science hahaha

Happened to a guy in a town near me but the water put a hole through the roof first
Leave it to Scott to figure out how to turn a fire hose into an oversized water saw!
Excellent work, man!! Keep it up, love the videos!!
Their reaction to the water hammer was like little kids getting excited about something 😂. Little did they know they were damaging the pump lol.
Well half of me is like, "It's just a truck that was either scheduled for scrap or reuse some how, so it's not a huge loss." And the other half of me is like, "That's probably how a lot of other historical artifacts were lost to time." I can totally see internal combustion engines going this kind of route. Someone gets an old Willy's L134 engine and runs the sucker and experiments to see what it takes to blow it up and that just happens to be the very last one and we no longer know how to build them... That's probably how all the other things from the 90's became ancient artifacts.....1990's that is.🤣
Wish they used a smooth bore instead 😅
Getting old is mandatory, growing up is optional 😂😂......I don't think I've ever laughed so hard for a KB video!
when you say " if ya play with fire you will pee the bed." it brought back memories of my grandmother she would say that.
I was a volunteer fire fighter back in my 20s. Let me tell you, at full power, you need three guys on the line to keep it under control. Fire trucks can move a boat load of volume and I remember we emptied a swimming pool during a massive grass fire event in less than 10 minutes with all lines in use. Great, fun video!
Single handedly made a push with a 2 1/5 multiples times haha
@@Quewe-j7tyeah sitting on it in the yard maybe
If it Hits You!?? Pretty Lethal! Especially if Mark was driving!😂😂😂
Thought you said it hits them, not misses?
Can't you just imagine grandpa Mark pulling up on one of those old horse drawn fire engines?
Have Weston drive it, it'll be a lot safer.
lol
My granddad bought me a 1974 Ford f750 pumper truck when I was 4. Had a 429 Cobra jet engine in it. Loved that thing
When I was 12, me and a bunch of friends were hanging around watching the local volunteer FD doing training exercises at the junior high by tapping into their water feed. It was a hot summer so we all wanted to get wet, so we rode bikes by them and they knocked us all flying. I think I flew 5 feet. Luckily it was onto grass, but I still saw stars and had the shirt ripped off my back. I've had a healthy respect for a firehose ever since.
A small high pressure stream of water about the size
of a pencil lead will cut right thru a steel plate!
People have lost arms and even HEADS from water and steam!
@@ludicrous7044 water jets are a whole different level of pressure compared to a fire truck waterhose xD.
Hi Scott,
When I was a firefighter in the 80's we used to have team competitions called "barrel rolling" played on an outdoor basketball court where 3 firefighters for each side handled the hose in the key of the court and 2 more from each team on the side and the points were scored by pushing the plastic barrel, about ⅓ full of water, from the center to the other side and hold it there for 3 minutes to win a point. Of course, when the other team pushes the barrel out of bounds, the linesman had to push the barrel back in, on the clock. Of course, to distract the linesman of the other side, you hit'em with the hose until the barrel was back in play😂
There was a referee and was played in full bunker gear for protection and if anyone had gear blown off, it was an instant win 🏆
This game made sharpshooting a fire 🔥 much more effective because of muscle memory and directing the stream where and when it's needed.
..and it was a load of laughs 😃
The solid stream hose nozzels are brutal at close range but always remember, never,ever let go of a hose under pressure and open because it will turn into a "wild-snake" if it gets away and I've seen a hose and nozzel take a corner off a concrete block building with gusto before the pumper operator could shut the line down in seconds so be careful with this toy. It's probably more dangerous than most of the other toys you have 😮 so play safe😊
I remember back in girl scouts, we visited a Fire Station, and they basically said that at full blast, the Main Nozzle/Hose on the average Fire Truck could and would literally strip your skin off, possibly right down to the bone. Or in better comparison, a simple spray at max pressure would be like being dragged behind an F-1 car, with your skin/muscle being ripped off, while taking a blast heading would be like getting slammed into by a solid steel wall at near 100-200 miles per minute (or something similar)
I used to refurbish fire trucks, P19, P22, P23 and P24's we would take them and test the pumps by spraying old junked out cars and would watch them roll the cars over like a plastic bag blowing in the wind. Definitely AWESOME!!! Keep that content coming Scott!
sounds like a lot of fun :D
When I was in Scouts as a young teen (12 or 13 or possibly 14. So back in 1996 or 1998); We spent a long weekend on the U.S.S. Salem, if I recall the name right. It had lost one of the deck guns in a heavy storm and never got it replaced for the remaining duration of the ships use. I remember that.
Anyways, we got to simulate an engine fire. And we got to learn how the hoses work.
I got to be at the front, the one who opened the nozzle. Which had to be deliberate, as *as an adult now*, I am 5 feet, 2 inches tall. I was positively pocket-sized as a teen.
The all clear came up the line of people holding the hose, I opened up the nozzle, and *WHAM!* went flat on my back from the force.
To my credit; I did not release the hose! Though it took a bit of effort to close the nozzle.
I was soaked and laughing my butt off.
Firetrucks are so awesome. Thank you for answering a question I've had since I was 5 years old
Scott, as a career firefighter, Stop slamming the valve shut, that sudden stop of water flow causes " water Hammer" can and will damage the pump and piping on the truck... love the video as always man,
I'm glad I wasn't the only one to see that.
The force that can be generated is no joke!
Psssst. No one cares.
*No one cares other than people who want to claim they are, or were a firefighter.*
@@eriklarson9137 It kinda is important. Assuming Scott will keep the rig as a precaution...He should take care of the pump. A fire truck without a functional pump is just like a tank without its main gun. Powerful, but utherly useless.
Past fireman turned fulltime medic with age and back pain, and I gotta say this embodies some of the best times you can have after a good training and the intrusive thoughts while screwing around with the guys (unapproved by the officers)
Houston is too funny, I am absolutely so happy to see modern(in the last couple years) start featuring each other and other youtubers whether they're gamers, the slo mo guys and anyone else! Bodybuilders? haha. The most wholesome channels are becoming the fire arms youtubers that make wholesome content FEATURING firearms. More entertainment than anything and that's what this platform was intended for, not activism.
Keep it up Scott!
“Sir…*smash*…stop resisting….*smash*”
Scott…no more flash backs. 😂
Retired FDNY here. Hey Scott, now try advancing the hose line on your knees with high pressure, and wearing around 100 lbs. of gear, in a high heat and stress confined space. Don’t forget all of the lethal tools on the ladder truck.
Thats nothing, the other day I stubbed my toe while wearing a t-shirt on a warm day, outside.
I beg to differ. Happy Gilmore accomplished that feat no more than an hour ago.
@@sacr3Thank you for your service 🫡
@@sacr3 damn, you alright bro? Should I take care of your dog and family from now on? Thats just nasty, hope you´ll recover fast
First I would like to thank you for your service. Lots of respect for firefighters cops and ambulances they all have a hard job.
About to have my second hip replaced at 35 and pretty anxious about it. Everytime I see one of your videos its like seeing a brother do fun stuff. I wish I could get the chance to just get to hang out and ride four wheelers together. I always find comfort and a home feeling watching and thanks from the bottom of my heart, Cody from small town Tx.
Former firefighter here. At full psi even the older trucks put out enough force to knock down brick walls. Ive done it.
Thanks for your service friend!
Tower ladder = wrecking ball
@@fdMT_EnGy Couldn’t be any truer, we only have one ladder in my district as we’re all rural volunteer departments with the exception of the one paid city department who has the ladder and our saying is, when the tower goes up, the building comes down.
@@bluecollarwelding2215 True. Same where I used to volly, ladder goes up house comes down. There are videos on TH-cam of where I am now of our tower ladders knocking walls to pieces. I know those truckies have a blast up there...pun intended.
@@bluecollarwelding2215Tower goes up! Walls go down!
He’s betrayed his police oath…. He became a firefighter.
Also love this mad man’s laugh when he sprayed the dummy’s body!😂🤣😂🤣
dont worry, it was an upgrade ;)
Truth-he became a land pirate.
😂😂😂
He has to actually fight fire to be a fire fighter
A friend of mine from highschool actually did the opposite. He was a firefighter for years and now works for the sheriff's department back in Arkansas.
I remember when training new fire
Fighters we'd sometimes up the pressure and have them use the hoses solo just to watch them fall backwards from the pressure. Great video.
HOUSTON JONES IS BACK BABY
All the incredibly powerful weaponry we’ve seen on this channel, and yet the sight of Houston smiling while playing with a lighter may still be the most terrifying 😂!
I’m just glad this man works far the hell away from where I live 💀
Matt builds a fire truck because he literally needed one because of all the insane stuff he does. Scott just says hold my beer and buys a ready made one that he really doesnt need just because his camera man showed him an ad for one. Being a GunTuber must be weird! With that being said, buying one just to see if HJ can survive it was an AWESOME idea and I think that the majority of people will agree.
The best part is, that his cameraman is his Dad.
AngryCops bought 2 firetrucks and renovated them into party trucks for events.
Tried talking my brother in to buying a few I found a while back thare thare sometimes
At 5:50 is yet more proof that Halloween is the best time of year to shop for home décor.
I work on firetrucks for a living (collision repair) and I love old firetrucks so this is awesome.
Ditch sdi though..
Check your pump pressure when you’re flowing water. Often times when you open the nozzle the pressure drops. Happy to see you fulfilling every police officers dream of becoming a firefighter!
Oh it definitely drops on a hose that size. You’d need a massive pressure tank type setup if you wanted any hope of keeping that pressure completely consistent, at least on that rig. Still super powerful though.
As a former firefighter 12 years as a driver/operator, the spray can cause injury. They were using a 2.5 or 3 inch hose. At 200psi that translates to around 400-500 gallons per minute. Depending on the pump.
500 gallons = 1892L =1892kg = 4171 lbs.
Divide by 60 for seconds 31.5kg/69.5lbs per second
@@brianhamalainen8817would be more like 1400 pounds of force per second because you have 200 psi and about 7 square inches of water exiting from a 3 inch nozzle meaning it would be 700x2 but I'm just now realizing you calculated for the weight of the water not the pressure like I did lmao
Thank you for your service! o7
@@noodlelynoodle. Yeah, I was going to do those calculation, but I remembered that fire nozzles basically spray 'hollow' sprays of water so figuring out the water cross-section would be pretty tough.
(How It's Made has a good video on fire nozzles, that was suggested from this video, and it shows the central core that spreads the water out)
@@brianhamalainen8817 I feel like it would probably come out to about the same amount of total force overall even though it would be less surface area then cause I imagine if it's spreading it like that it's increasing the pressure past 200 psi in the nozzle and concentrating that force down into basically a circular knife of water lmao I could be totally wrong about that but like my thinking is if you're taking a 3 inch hose worth of 200 psi and forcing it through something to distribute it only around the edges like that the pressure must increase
Y’all are a pair of characters! Your collaborations are always funny and entertaining! Houston Jones is a glutton for punishment,I really think that he gets a weird thrill out of feeling pain. He gets a thrill from the pain and he gets paid too,nothing but a win-win situation for him!
Fun fact any fire truck in use today and any fire truck in the last 100+ years have the same thread and pitch meaning you can hook up hoses from a new truck to a retired 1920's truck and hoses will connect
I think that was mandated so that if one truck goes down for any reason another can take its place regardless of age or brand of manufacturer. Just imagine back in the day if one township has a rig crap out on a fire and the other township next door is called in.....Just hook in and go.
That's practicality that one can only expect from the Fire Guys.
That might be good to know someday, actually.
Isn’t it outdated then by now?
14:21 Now that's how real men do a liver cleansing! No annoying and time consuming diets required! Just visit your local Kentucky Cleansing for all your liver fixin needs!

As a volunteer Out of Maryland this is hands down one of the greatest videos I have ever Seen! Thanks for doing this I haven't laughed so hard in a long time! Keep up the amazing work
FIRE FIRE FIRE! My inner Beavis is in love.
"Just put your thumb ON it"....
See if you can stop THAT flow !
Safety and blessings 🇺🇸
That was just nuts! Also, with you standing with the fire hose between your legs spraying out, it looked very dodgy. The scarecrow looked far better when it revealed itself as a Terminator. You and Houston laughing hysterically as you destroyed the zombie, first by flowing his head off and scalping it, then seeing organs flying when you blasted it point-blank before driving it into the wheel arch of the truck. We saved this for our usual Friday evening Scotfest. You didn't disappoint !!
the funniest part was at about 10:35, they were laughing their asses off at the pressure hitting the zombies head, all happy as can be, and then the head came off and their faces went from happy to panic and i died XD!!!
I was an honorary member of the Laurel County Fire Department in Kentucky when my younger brother was an active member for 6 years. I got to do alot of fun stuff and worked my butt off at the station.
Flowing water is always a blast! You want to slowly open and close the bale as you're flowing to prevent water hammer at the pump. Slamming the bale like that will shorten pump life substantially but the kick is amazing. Try a smooth bore nozzle the next time it fires a straight stream of water for more penetration and the nozzle reaction is more fun too!
Operator: 911 what is your emergency?
Caller: yeah I need to borrow your fire truck to test against some ballistics equipment.
HOUSTON!. YES THEY COLLABED AGAIN!
The best dual TH-camrs ever.. perfect match of personalities
I love how it goes from a serious science experiment to 2 grown dudes living life. That laugh is one you share with memories and a good friend, awesome jog on this one, Im jealous
I know you're probably super safe when you do stuff like this. Always make sure someone has positive control of the nozzle before you charge a hose. You do not wanna get hit with a wild hose, that brass nozzle flying around can and will do some serious damage if it were to hit you or someone.
Just used this as Department training hours lol I really did learn a lot. And I just took my hydraulics course so watching you pump was funny.
The excitement exhibited by these to gentlemen enjoying a fire hose has the same energy as a couple of kids playing with the garden hose, pure nostalgic joy!
And this folks, is why Scott has the best channel of all the gun channels.. His channel is the best!! 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you for that demonstration in my opinion that was absolutely fantastic it tells people the truth about what water can do to the human body thank you both for your excellent content!!
We used a 3" fire hose to wash down the roads at the power station where I worked. At 225 lbs it was all I could do to hold the thing down....and when one of the new guys who weighed about 130 tried to do it....that hose about beat him to death until he let go of it. Just hilarious how much power a little water can have!
Yeah, I used to use inch and a half attack lines in at full power.It was uncontrollable, and i'm a hundred and forty ish pounds
I am extremely surprised that your truck survived that. By all rights, the panel should have buckled and the paint should have come off. Huh. Great to see Houston again~! Thanks, fellas~!
Scott said it dented the side!
10:43 the most joker like laugh I've ever heard 💀
"Houston, you are literally my favorite person to film with."
Brandon, Donut, Admin, Nic, Mike: Are we jokes to you?
They don't enjoy it as much when Scott punishes them with recoil.
I think Eddie Hall stopped coming after their last video 😂
Just because you like waffles the most that doesn’t mean you don’t still love your pancakes.
Fun fact: in the 1976 movie carrie, an extra PJ Soles was sprayed by a fire hose for a death scene, the fire marshal didn't want to do it, but the stunt coordinator did manned the hose. The full force sprayed forced hit PJ on the side of the head and force her head to turn resulting in the hose blasting into her ear rupturing her eardrum
that wasnt fun lol
@@mastergwahaGoddamn imagine how much it'd hurt to get your eardrum ruptured by a water cannon
The 2 of you are literally a perfect duo. Please do more with Houston!
Scott with the real firetruck and the plastic helmet from the Dare/smokey the bear program when he was a kid, you know he's living childhood again
How lethal is a fire truck? Oh I’m watching this video!!!!
Scott and Houston are the greatest pair on youtube :D
My favourite videos are these collab episodes.
They used to use those hoses on people all the time back in the 60's. Wild times those were.
Need to do that more often these days....
@@RL-RL -- Yes

Scott is living out most of our childhood dreams of having our own firetrucks...and this one works!! Super cool.
12:25 Kentucky Waterboarding? 🤣
"Mom, can we have Waterjet Channel?"
"We have Waterjet Channel at home"
Waterjet Channel at home:
Here in Germany we only hold such hoses with support rubble or in groups of three firefighters and people are generally not extinguished with water 😉 Great video
I was rolling at 13:47 with you guys trying to hang on to that hose and gigglin like kids

Our toys are bigger and more fun, they get jealous. 😂
This is ridiculous.
So yeah, thank you Scott & Houston. THANK YOU...
The world needs to lighten up & smile a bit more, this'll do it for me.
Praise the cracked, for it is they that let in the light.
