nothing more frustrating then finding out the occupants were standing outside all along....great job boys....nice video showing VES technique and a properly done emergency egress and all three made it out with no injuries.......don't panic and use your trainning
Art Mccomeskey Don't get yourself into a no win situation in the first place. Where were the officers and any fire fighters who were standing around when a Pole of the fire watchers Should have been going on. The First thing you do is ask everyone around, "Who owns this house and where are they?"
+JB91710 It's not always the firefighter's fault. I've been on scene a couple times now when after asking that very question, they were misinformed and state the occupants were still inside. The problem is often with the occupants failing to report their escape to the authorities on scene, and not with the firefighters
As soon as it is known that their is no one inside, a specific air horn signal should be agreed to stop the search and get firefighters to safety. The crew hanging around outside should have made a priority of finding out the true situation, along with the most likely location if anyone was still inside. Firefighters do a great job, but often seem to be let down by poor organisation and communication putting them at risk.
Used to live across the road from Ed, a Scarborough fireman. Captain, Chief? It was the '60s and '70s. Such good friends with my dad. When we replaced some windows, they had to be big enough to fit through with an SCBA on. Even the typical tiny basement windows. Rented or borrowed a big to me gas powered saw to cut cinder blocks. To control dust and heat, a little water should be sprayed on the blade and cut. Ed came over to help. He sprayed a little water. My dad and I had a running joke after that, about what "put a little water on it" means to a fireman. The basement wasn't finished yet, windows were the first step, so it was easy to push all the water into the floor drain. It was a lot of water. Personally, by the time I was 8 or so, I really appreciated the large basement windows for sneaking in and out of. Don't tell my parents.
Amazing story! Very well put together video, and production quality. Hearing the story directly from the three firefighters really took it home for me. Props to you for the video and a big big Salute to these firefighters...as well as firefighters everywhere out there putting it all on the line every day for us. *Salute!*
NJP Vlogs -N- Stuff I'm a firefighter in Winnipeg and this happened to me but it was a six alarm fire my crew fell through the floor and I was the last one in line so I didn't go through the floor but when I saw them fall I immediately grabbed the door frame and went down the hole letting my guys use me as a human ladder. And at this point I was a Captain. Greetings from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.
Agreed. Slow bail outs. I have seen a guy dive out the second story window on to the ladder head first engulfed in flame cause he got flashed over on. Lucky his turnout gear did it's thing. he walked away with some minor second degree burns. All that to Say if he bailed that slow he would certainly be dead. Granted he had some incentive to move quickly. Lol
Who the F are you to criticize this amazing emergency exit? Let me guess you’re a volunteer in a small town that thinks you know it all right? Shut up dude! You couldn’t even tie these guys shoes
That's a lot of gear to go through the window. Glad they were okay. It baffles me it didn't occur to the occupants in the backyard to notify the firefighters no one was inside. Too many people don't think about anyone but themselves.
God Bless our Canadian neighbours. These firefighters risking their lives for the sake of others. That’s a true hero in my book. “The true North strong and free”
Man, that poor first guy....he was trying to get out and down the ladder while his two partners are in the oven like room. They were probably getting anxious as the first guy struggled. Thankfully he was able to move despite his setbacks
We had a fire at an apt years back. 8 units, one got struck by lightning (the only non occupied unit). When I got out (there was not any fire in my unit), I left the door open to my cats an escape (I couldn't get to them, they were all fine). As soon as I saw a firefighter starting to search the building, I made sure they knew everyone was out of that unit. This is why. While that day there was no loss of life of any kind, it easily could have been a different story.
It made me just fall back onto my bed in frustration when I found out the occupants were outside since they found out about the fire. Firefighters were injured trying to look for them.
There was a rollover which would make it very hot, but I wonder if it was also a hot fire because they were in the exhaust flow path, since they entered through the top window which would be the same window most heat would try to escape from (heat rises). I've read exhaust flow path temperatures can go up to 260C which is close to the upper limit of what SCBA masks are rated for.
Glad these guys made it out. Also the tip of that ladder is in the wrong place. at a window, the tip of the ladder should be placed right underneath the window sill, so the tip of the ladder won't create a very dangerous tripping hazard when exiting the window. as seen at 1:10
I fought fires where you would see a slight flicker of the flames at best. The smoke appears if you could cut it !!! Firemen out there know what I am referring tto.👨🚒
Yeah no fire visible. I though the flames would be auto exposing with this headline. Much respect to the FF , but this is a can job in Bushwick Brooklyn.
Glad they made it out!! I gotta' say though, watching this video and the first fireman's exit from the structure, I was yelling hurry the fuck up!!!! Hurry the fuck up!!! Damn!! With that many firefighters behind you in that situation, time is essential!! In training, the instructors teach us how to escape a building in fires like this, just like the last few firefighters did, head first slide.
When house is burning and a window is open upper floor it is situation like a fireplace. All smoke and heat goes to open window in upper floor. Aisles and stairways acts like a chimney. Is it better attack both teams from first floor? One team takes basement and another team goes up. Fire can´t so easily surprise firefighters.
One armchair thought. Tight fit on the way out. Maybe Take out the entire center portion of the double window frame for larger egress hole? Glad they got out okay. sounds like old construction. too bad the folks in the backyard didn't make themselves known or were not checked into by anyone. Stuff happens.
Thanks for your acknowledgment of "armchair", as there is a TON of that with these vids. Many of them made by non-ff's, who have no idea, and would shit themselves if in the same scenario !!!!
Had they cleared the entire window and window frame they could have walked out. They got stuck because they didn't think before going in. I am glad that they were able to get out safely. As for they primary search being negative, a 360 of the first arriving officer may have had found the home owners quickly.
That uses valuable AIR and time. Our tanks only last so long and doing a primary search plus adrenaline uses enough. They made it in and out they knew what they were doing.
Wasn’t that a charged hose to the left of the ladder going in through the window they would eventually escape from? I’m not a firefighter myself so I’m just asking.
The first guy out needs training in going out head first. The other two were out quickly. The biggest problem is that they most likely did inadequate fire fighting before and during this search.
0:22 minute you can see that smoke got unbelievable high temperature and it's preparing for flash over. Firefighters should not be there long time before they did.
The water in the hose not only extinguishes burning material it will also COOL the hot gasses. Open the nozzle to a 50% cone and spray the ceiling long enough to cool the space down. K.I.S.S. A burning material can't burn if you soak it with water. If the air is hot, cool it with water. Keep to the basics! Find what's burning and Soak it.
I'm just curious. Aren't they to old for working in such a hard conditions? Secondly... Why they had not broken all the windows to do a proper ventilation and then searched the hsuse if they knew that the hight temperature is coming? Thanks to this, they could get rid of smoke and quickly find a fire so they could solve the problem quite quickly. PS: I'm from Europe and we have here another tactics to make this things done that's why iam asking
As long as you're in shape age doesn't matter so I cannot speak on behalf of them... But for the part about ventilation it's a good thing that they didn't broke every window. To do so would have only feed the fire more oxygen which would have resulted in the augmentation of the fire growth and the rapid deterioration of the environment. The more you contain a fire from getting oxygen the slower it will increase since it's one of the three elements needed for a fire to evolve. They did what they thought was right and it didn't work. A fire can get out of hand and thankfully no one got hurt!
Man the way they say out is wild. But I suppose it's the same with southerners and northerners. Good job, but first guy maybe should have went headfirst. Just my stool seat opinion
Yep! All went in with waist bands undone. That's what got caught for the first guy going out. Wonder if they'll fully don their PPE next time. Half-assed stuff. It didn't say, did they loose track of the nozzle when they were inside?
Not dumping on ffs, 2nd story entry with flash over smoke already present was useless and ff risk, nobody on that floor alive...should have been more strategic on ffs offensive approachx
There's no excuse for that if you are doing your job of venting the windows, eliminating the flames and cooling the gasses. Use The WATER instead of Playing Hero!
@@ffandrewd2986 If they didn't eliminate all the Visible Burning Material first and then bring a charged line in there with them, then they were playing hero or Reacting without Thinking, at the very least.

EXCELLENT !! Let firefighters know if all out. If not, suspected location(s) inside.
That voice scared the crap out of me!

This is why you have to take out the whole window when you vent. Not just the glass. That took way too long to "bail out"
Agreed. Slow bail outs. I have seen a guy dive out the second story window on to the ladder head first engulfed in flame cause he got flashed over on.

He did what's called a "tank dump" on our dept. We train to do it blacked out. Doing it in the light is much easier, as you can guess.

Much respect to the fire department
glad they got 'ooot'
Just think, when this fire took place the house was worth perhaps $300k. Whatever's there now is probably worth $1.25 million.
For fucking real! I was just a dumb 1st year university kid back then!!!!

When taking out a window...TAKE IT OUT!....
They should have never gone in through that small opening, they should have broken the whole widow out before trying that.
I love his voice
great job! love

I think this is every persons worst fear.. gives me anxiety just watching
No line on the first floor? Them guys are lucky for sure!
Wondering - no water from down below (base)??

A Captain or Lt should always be the last out. I would never bail out before making sure my firefighters all got out before me
It appears none of the three men buckled their waist belt on the airpack. Not the way I was trained. Could cost ya in the long run.

Ladder should be even with the sill it partially blocked the exit
TYFYS
Those guys were goin in to get people! They’re F hero’s. Seriously those are the guys you want going to get your loved ones trapped in a house
The department i belonged too you searched with a charged hose. Break off from hose in hall way search rooms.
Wasn’t that a charged hose to the left of the ladder going in through the window they would eventually escape from? I’m not a firefighter myself so I’m just asking.
Shouldn't they have more than one Ladder so you don't have a traffic jam of firefighters waiting their turn to escape when shit, hits the fan?
The first guy out needs training in going out head first. The other two were out quickly. The biggest problem is that they most likely did inadequate fire fighting before and during this search.
The first guy out was the fastest lol The 2nd guy was taking forever
Is that how you spell ladder in Canada ? I like the way they pronounce the out.
Yes. Can never have too many ladders.
anytime your taking a ladder headfirst its a rough day
Much respect for the FF, but this title is incredibly misleading
this is why we practice ladder bail outs.

JB91710 Hope you don't plan on doing that right above you. Unless you love steam burns.
TheModernSnipez I agree if it was hot before it would scalded them to death in seconds.
ya it can cool, but a fog pattern also creates a shit ton of hot steam that can also burn you
