Large CHEMICAL SPILL In Manchester Triggers Major Incident Response

- A leak of hazardous material at a chemical firm triggered a major incident and left one person needing hospital treatment
The incident at the Lanxess factory in Trafford Park, Greater Manchester, happened just before 09:00 GMT during the unloading of a tanker
The leaked substance - phosphorus oxychloride - was later contained.
"More than a dozen" people were assessed by paramedics but only one person needed further care.
Fire engines, police and ambulances were called to the incident on Tenax Road, while nearby residents were advised to keep their windows and doors closed.
The ambulance service said the "large-scale" response, which saw Greater Manchester Police declared a major incident, was needed in-line with protocols for this kind of event.
Roads in the area were later reopened and the major incident was stood down.
What is phosphorus oxychloride?
Phosphorus oxychloride is used as a base material by the chemical manufacturing industry, and can be corrosive and highly toxic if it makes contact with the skin.
If inhaled, it can cause symptoms including coughing, burning, sore throat, dizziness, and nausea.
A Lanxess safety document said there can be a risk of exposure when the chemical is unloaded to be stored, with workers trained to handle the substance wearing protective clothing.

"Just send anything that has lights and a siren. I don't care what it is, even Ice cream vans. Over"
Even ice cream van brilliant 😂😂
Don't forget the tow trucks
amazing 😂
Joe Biden heard ice cream and is on the way now…
@@that_one_poofGood, that means the yanks will do the work for us
how science teachers react if you don't put on protection goggles when mixing water and salt together:
So true
You know sh*t has hit the fan when they are sending out the Dacia Dusters
This made me laugh lots 🤣 I’m in the motor trade for new vehicles so I have driven them, they really do take terrible to an all new low…..so so bad.
Maybe the officer has been a naughty boy and he’s been allocated the punishment vehicle 🤣
would probably be a fire chief personal whip

That could be a Doctor's Car. Sometimes Doctor's have their own cars which are rigged out with permission go have blues and a siren, so in emergency they can leave home or work and go to the emergency with their own vehicle.
There is a guy on TH-cam who films himself responding to emergencies showing to does and don'ts of being both someone responding to a blue light vehicle and being a blue light driver. His videos are rather slef reflective and helpful to others.
@@REDARROW_A_Personal 1. It was a joke. 2. I'm aware. 3. Its not a doctor, its a fire chief, they were given Dacia Dusters as a result of the Manchester arena enquiry so they could respond to incidents 24/7
Now I’m imagining the one person needing hospital treatment having the entire ambulance service on them
Does happen I have seen 3 Ambulances (one car two vans) for someone having a heart attack. It's more of a case who can get there sooner. If they get two at the same time till they think they are clear the other can't leave. It's likely the car was there first, but they called for the patient to be taken in and two showed up at the same time, because its a case of if two are at similar distances then one may get there sooner, but if both arrive then one crew needs to be cleared to leave.
@@REDARROW_A_Personalthey always send 2 ambulances to cardiac arrests. They recon after doing 2 minutes of chest compressions a person is less effective so they aim to have 2 crews of 2, one on the airway, one keeping record and two to swap out on chest compressions.
I imagine the car is either just first on scene or a local manager.
Dam, you hit the mother load of catches. Those alarms in the background just made the video that bit more interesting.
Yes it does
I’m a Hazmat Tech in the US with my counties Hazardous Materials Team and I love seeing how other countries deal with Hazmat incidents
Hah, same here love the job, nice to meet another one of us! Love seeing the UK Work along
@@EmergencyResponseBallarat I’m also going for my confined space rescue swift water and rope rescue certs I’m gonna be a jack of all trades XD
@@EmergencyResponseBallarat we actually had an incident the other day I live in a state that gets snow and we had a propane truck roll over due to the shitty weather and crushed the valve that takes the gas from the truck through the hose to tank it leaked about 350 gallons worth of gas we had to get in there and clamp it up
@@Redbird45 My god, that’s a lot of Gasoline
@@EmergencyResponseBallarat it’s was propane not sure what you use it for where your firm but here in the states we using for heating cooking and heating water and a few other things
Absolutely brilliant coverage , a lot of appliances too from all 3 services
You know its serious when all three emergency services are responding to the same call you've even got undercover cop cars
That police unit posted there did not help with the traffic!
Alarms were going off in the building so must have been a pretty big spill.
Glad it was dealt with.
4:00 A little dumb of the police to park their car in such a way as to make it difficult for fire appliances to access the scene, should surely have backed up a little and then stood in the open lane moving when needed to let vehicles in.
Yeah, sadly a lot of our police officers don't have much in the way of common sense.
@@Chris-hy6jy although I do think the appliance driver must shoulder some of the blame for making it difficult to get though, made the angle all wrong on approach, and many other appliances didn’t struggle to get through the same gap, it wasn’t that tight (and yes I drive HGVs so I’m qualified to comment lol)
In my opinion, I think the people in the traffic are stupid they won't move away for the emergency services "because it's now breaking the law"
Like burh , this is why we have more waiting times for emergency services
@@aquanick2001 I get the impression some of the emergency drivers didn't see the police car blocking the road until the last second, by that point they were at the wrong angle to negotiate the turn. The police could have moved back and placed a stop sign in the other lane.
@@Chris-hy6jy it did look like that to me as well, but that said the police car definitely made it more difficult.
This'll make a dramatic episode on BBC's Ambulance if they were filming when this took place
Giant Warning sirens doing their job by doing Whoop Whoop
Made it a bit more eerie too
Very eerie alarm! Lucky that you were there
What a shit show on the traffic management there. Park in the way. And leave the traffic lights to sort traffic out. Get the damn area cleared. Jesus 🤦🏻♂️
Absolutely brilliant work fantastic coverage excellent done well done
Jesus christ cups of tea must be getting cold!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Well done, fantastic coverage
Wow! What a crazy event! Great video though mate and some epic catches too!
0:24 is that the warning alarm? Not the police siren.
Chemical leak alarm or hazmat alarm. Different to fire alarm. Some adjoining properties in the area would be warned about what to do in the event of hearing that alarm.
Wow so many vehicles! 😂 traffic must have been so confused with all the lights and sirens coming from all over
Someone got a 5 star wanted level 😂😂😂😂
Great catch as always!
That was absolutely fantastic brilliant vid
Really appreciate your video 📹 absolutely brilliant 👏 thanks
Still love seeing the old TVAC machine on the run, nice looking bit of kit they were.
Same.
Very good video with a nice variety of response vehicles, the statement and information of the incident was very interesting.
10:16 thats one hella undercover car
What chemical was it? You know it’s bad when you see a load of emergency service cars shooting down with a haunting industrial siren in the background!!
Phosphorus chloride on this occasion. There was a release of hydrochloric acid on the same site in 2013.
@@TheVleckChannel Oh dear! That’s not good at all!
Great catches!👍🏻
Props to the people that helped
What a amazing video, you certainly were in the right spot at the right time
Any idea what the dacia duster was? Brilliant catch
Shows you in the video , fire brigade
Can’t think of a worse vehicle to use, the Dacia Duster is absolutely appalling to drive, and don’t even get me started on the build quality…….
Like the disco in the background with the night searcher on
Holy cow the number of emergency videos ive seen, ive never seen so many of all three services being called to one incident with that siren going as well and all the blues and twos it must of scared the shit out of anyone living locally
Great catch by you though
Great catches!
Great video! 😊 what was the response from the fire service and north west ambulance service ? I saw somewhere 10 pumps but nothing about specials and 12 ambulances got sent
There was the environmental protection truck from fire and I think I saw NWAS HART
The chemical that was spilt is phosphorus oxychloride if you’re wondering
How can police show up with no protective gear on isn’t that EXTREMELY DANGEROUS
Super video!! 🔥
Awesome Catches. Well Done!
Brilliant catch you got the right spot
How many lives lost in this convoy of bad examples
All of these varied sirens are so beautiful to hear, also I love the white front bumpers on the fire engines, I wish the fire engines in my county were as pretty
8:04 I heard this alarm all the way near Monton.
Glad I know what it was now.
Ah Manchester, my hometown (I moved to Wales)
But seriously these people need to be more careful about chemical leaks...
The incident responce unit is called hart unit hazard area response team
Massive response actually means massive overreaction….
you know stuff is bad when they bring out the ugly siren vehicles
Also why wasthere an background siren?
That might originate from the facilitiy that had the spill to alert nearby bystanders and adjacent facilities.
What a catch. Bet you couldn’t believe your luck with this one!
Wow! What a turnout! But could someone tell me what the older pump with no ladders at #3:10 was? I’m thinking maybe it’s a foam appliance conversion?
BA support unit the foam tender is a curtain sider box trailer
Impressive fleet
Liked and shared
What’s that the grey unmarked bmw is from Cornwall
This belongs to a fire officer
Wow!
Did Sally Army turn up with their food van for emergency workers?
Nice 🎉
*POV* that one flat burning to the ground though but all the fire engines responded the this
Whats that sound in the backround 0:35
That's the on-site warning siren for the building, it's used for incidents like this to alert the people in the area (other businesses or the general public) of a danger on-site. This one in particular is an E2S a141
@@short_kenobi ohh ok thx!
Manchester needs to get some new Fire engines looking abit outdated
When the OP decides to drop a can of Lynx Africa on the floor. . . .
Bloody hell 😊😊😊😊😊
Is it just me or were they all going round circules
EAS alarm for a chemical spill
No the alarms are the over ems
Omg
4:12 Now what are they going to do, charge with riot shields at the chemical pile?
On a more serious, if not trivial note, I noticed in the end photos that the site has their own fire appliance bays - anyone know what private fire engines (or something of the sort) are stored there?
Unlikely to be private fire engines in those bays- I have worked in places that had permanently marked locations for fire/ambulance vehicles to park in the event of an emergency. Marking it as 'FIRE' or 'AMBULANCE' means people think twice before using it as a dumping ground or parking space.
Idk why but some sirens scared me
Amazing video! Very lucky to get there before the crews to catch them!
Cheers mate, fortunately they made pumps 10 and asked for a lot of specials after the initial PDA the video was filmed over about a 5 hour period
Ello, why was TAU sent in? @@FirePhotos
@@Slaithyte Specially trained in responding to major incidents and dealing with large crowds, so they're the best equipped unit to
A - Transport lots of officers to the scene quickly
B - Evacuate the area as required
C - Manage any forming crowds
D - Provide resilience spaces for attending officers
E - Provide a high visibility police presence at the scene
ah alright cheers @@EastSussex999
Did they arrest the suspect who did this?
If so, will he be charged for endangering the public?
It's not necessarily a person that done it, this can often happen on It's own that's why they have a built in siren to alert people from a distance incase of an explosion or risk to life... it's best to stay well clear of stuff like that but some idiots are smart 😂 You wouldn't walk next to a 7 tonne truck cab engulfed in flames because once that tank gets covered your dead
HazMat suits all round
Somebody drop the jam for the doughnuts in the bakery?
No it's in the description
A chemical leak
Average day in Manchester
It looks like they threw everything at that response, including the kitchen sink aka the welfare unit!
what was the reason for the main siren at 08:08
The site alarm
@@chrisbarrow9059 actually it's a factory alarm they basically only use for extremes emergency only like chemical leaks
@@chrisbarrow9059that's a cool alarm
Coll video!
Well that doesn’t happen my way. 👍🏼🇪🇸
Kin ell, GMP have plenty of resources

What a rotten smell.❤
Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo
Nah tremendo
Why do they need ambulances for a chemical spill.?
For people affected by the spill
@@bliz3 oh. Thanks. I was unsure
I love it when police get stuck with their own stupid driving ..they had been faster 200 years ago on horses😅
Great video, loved seeing all the muppets stopping to ask the police if the road is closed, despite being able to see multiple emergency vehicles parked up and arriving. There are always those who want to argue that they need to go through a closure. 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Being an industrial estate there will out of town visitors, therefore probably asking for alternate directions.
Damned!.. Do you know what i really miss while seen all this emergency vehicles attempt to the Ermergency scene??.. On one side, the siren is a bit to sidehigh-pitched, and i really miss the dark horning after thie siren.. Meep ,Meep!
Oh men! You can't image how mutch i would made party for America, just for would hearing the fucking sound of a True American Ermergency vehilce! 😂🚔🚒🚑🔈🔈 UK should definitely thinking about change thair sirens!! In generell all europan countrys should change their siren sounds to the only true American ermergency siren sound!! Finaly, i know it sounds wired, but i guess with American emergency sounds, the people will show more attention, as well show more respect to ermergency staff for their work! Do you don't believe the "More respect thing?" Then you probably don't know and can't image, how much sounds can control your behavior!..
Trust me! It can! #worldwideemergencysounds
I prefer UK sirens ngl
Vid ok
Glad to see the tea van got turned out too.
German fire rescue sirebs are still cooler
Very boring fleets now
all my tax payers money is going on wasted resources like this
All this panic and fuss because McDonald's stops doing BREAKFAST after 11:30 😂😂 know seriously a very big thank you to all the emergency services who at the incident ❤
I would be shitting my pants the got whole of Manchester severeis down there dam
and who the f uck cares
Well you cared enough to comment, so I cared enough to reply, now that’s caring
well who comes to you when you get injured? Your mama? 😂😂 (not you pauldawnay7813 I wasn't talking about you btw I'm just talking about Kinght1968)
Wow. Between this, London Bridge 2017, the Bow crane collapse 2021, Formby beach mass repsponse, this might take the holy grail of all catches.
