Fiery delivery to the fire station! A driver in Jiangxi, China, turns a crisis into action by driving a burning truck loaded with pine oil straight to the firefighters' doorstep.
Cant imagine the firefighters thoughts on standby when they heard the intercom... "This is not a drill. The fire is outside literally". Kudos to the driver's quick thinking..
Reminds me of the time our local fire chief had a 30 second response time to a fire call. It was a woods fire started accidentally by him, behind his house, which was directly behind the fire hall. He still gets shit for it to this day lol.
@DesignFIaw you are. There is no staging area. It's an apron, it's meant for trucks to pull put, pur trucks stay staged 100% of the time in their berths. If you think a full house response can't get out of the station and around that truck, then you are as I stated earlier, very ignorant
eh, i have seen too many videos where people from Asia still think it is a good idea to use fireworks indoors. Like say at weddings. While the ceiling is covered with all kinds of burnable material, they still light up the fireworks and expect it to all be one nice happy party. And then the surprised faces. It is sometimes a bit funny, to be honest. If i could speak some Asian language, i would have said it in that language, but the translation always reads something like: "Jeez, who would have thought that fireworks inside a ballroom dressed with all kinds of decorations that can burn is a firehazard?¿? DOH!" And so, stupidity is not found on just one side of the globe. @@enitalp

Operator: What is your emergency? Truck driver: Are the firemen back at the station? Operator: Yes...why? Truck driver in his best RDJ voice: Then tell them to suit up. Im bringing the party to them.
I respect that driver driving that truck all the way to a fire station even when he known he was in danger I fully respect him so much for his bravery of doing that god dam
You're a idiot who would risk every body's life on the road to DRIVE A CAR ON FIRE THROUGH TRAFFIC TO RACE IT TO A FIRE STATION!?!? Such bravery that gets displayed to the world today.
This guy really has the mindset 'everyone else before me'.The first thing that came into his mind when the fire erupted was 'the nearest fire station is a few blocks away,i can bring this to them' instead of 'this truck may explode anytime soon so i must gtfo'. Balls of steel.
The only time a fire has been brought to the fire fighters, instead of them going to a fire. They all can now say they've experienced a once in a life time event.
Had a call show up at our firehall one evening and we handled it but it messed our heads because it just didn’t fit our protocols. Had good laugh about it after😊
@@ThatGuy-cl8gc I'm guessing that somebody left a flaming bag of dog poop on their door step and the OP doesn't want to admit that was what the call was because it was embarrassing. Either that or it was one of the other guys accidentally starting a fire with the grill.
Im actually quite surprised it took them that long to get water on it. There was a lot of messing about, you would think there was a permanent hose setup in case there was an emergency in their own premises.
Really??? Is there some kind of disconnect from your eyes to brain? Because that was pretty good response time. It says it took them a total of 8 minutes start to finish. You really can't get any faster then that.
German firefighter here, we actually have something like a permanent hose in most of our trucks. We call it a “Schnellangriff “(translates to “fast-attack” in English), and it’s basically a hose that lays folded inside the truck, already equipped with a nozzle and connected to the truck’s water tank, so that you can just take it out and use it immediately. It’s not much water and the range is limited, but for situations like this it’s perfect; bringing water on the fire in like 20 seconds. But it’s important to point out that this is just a technical issue. These Chinese firefighters here just didn’t had that on their truck, so they could not have done that. It’s not that we’re better than them, it’s just our equipment that is.
@neptun2810 just about all trucks in the fire services across the world that are responsible for fire attack carry preconnects, or crosslays, or jump lines, trash lines, whatever you want to call them. They did not use this because they went for foam induction which unless you're ARFF it's very unlikely you're going to have a ready setup of foam with a line ready to go. Trucks like that are very specialized and extremely expensive.
Dispatch: 911 what’s your emergency? Man: my truck is on fire, I need some guys to put it out! Dispatch: ok don’t worry just tell me your location. Man: Oh don’t worry about that! I’m bringing it to them! Just giving you guys a heads up.
@@yuting1659 it's actually pine tree oil, not petrol. I can't speak for China, but in my experience liquefied petrol gas comes in pressurized tanks, not normal barrels. Also both at the start of the video, and in the video discription it's states to be pine tree oil.
I attended Albany High School in Albany NY during the early 1970's. I remember one day of protest and confrontations when one of the groups blocked a truck carrying trash, they set fire to the contents. The quick thinking driver then drove the truck 2 or 3 blocks to the fire station. I cannot recall the outcome but would think the truck was a total loss. The flames were fanned by moving the truck as in this video. Oh, the good old days.
I think it’d be better to let the firefighters come to larger buildings like mansions or tall apartment blocks than driving the large buildings to the nearest fire station.
I love how the captions say the firefighters saw the fire's smoke column approach their fire station and were ready to go, but when the truck arrived the firefighters were still inside the station instead of outside...with attack lines already connected and primed...ready to put water on the fire as soon as the truck showed up like a NASCAR PIT crew...
I have to say, for being at a fire station that was a slow response, with too much emphasis on flat lines, rather than opting for at least one smaller hose-reel to get water on the fire much quicker while a bigger line was set up.
You have to understand, the fire was basically in a middle of an open ground, with no combustible material nearby, so they can take their time to set up properly. And they were using foam, so it is more effective. People sometimes expect everything to be fast, but they are trained for this, they know this situation is contained, so they don't need to rush. Not to mention, it's definitely a rare occurence of someone actually bringing a burning vehicle to the fire station. Just like when an ambulance arrives at scene and people criticize them for not immediately going to the hospital once the patient is loaded. They are ignorant of the fact that the paramedics have to stabilize the patient first, and if it's not life threatening, they are not going to rush quickly and take their time to do initial treatment and assessment calmly before heading to the hospital. Rushing things for no reason just makes people rush and miss important details that you would otherwise notice if you didn't rush, so just let them do their job.
@@aimanh6081 and you have to understand if you are going to argue like others "ah but oil fire" they you should realise the barrels would be sealed and that it is aspects of things like the truck body, floor and paint and plastic on fire, and when it comes to containers that are sealed getting water onto the containers ASAP cools them and mitigates them exploding from pressure build-up inside them, being slow to get water on the fire misses the chance to extinguish all the things that water easily extinguishes, and misses the chance to COOL sealed containers, thus reduce the pressure inside them and mitigate the explosion risk.
To be fair, I don't think any fire station on earth would ever expect a rolling plume of smoke and Hell's flames to stroll up to them when it's normally THEM who go out to the fire.
That's pretty ballsy of him. Fire spreads incredibly quick, and with the wind from the movement it would do so even quicker. The smart thing to do would have been to leave the truck in a safe location, especially since it could have blown up and caught other things on fire. Dude's lucky that the station was close by.
Moving keeps the flames from the front of the truck aka where the diesel and driver is. I've seen a lot of car fires and even fully engulfed I've never seen one explode. The fact that the truck is running on diesel makes it very unlikely to happen. That was one of the benefits of running diesel in tanks. IT doesn't explode or burn easily. Now if it had been an EV or containing something under pressure.... Regardless I agree with your sentiment.
This truck driver thought he'd get quick help at the station around the corner - so the street is clear and his belongings in the cab can be saved. I'm glad he went there and got the help he needed.
It's mind blowing how that truck was still drivable while being on fire and carrying the massive balls of that driver. Most people would leave the vehicle and get as far as possible.
The danger to the driver was lessened by the fact that as the truck was running forwards, the air pushes the flames backwards, delayed the fire from catching the cabin well enough to set it alight.
You see, the first action the first man in the scene does. He doesn't rush to help. He doesn't run back to alert anyone. He pulls out his phone and starts filming.
@@nefarioulyte9996 Plus, even if it wasn't a dash cam shot but a phone recording, wtf would they be supposed to do instead? Jump in front of the truck to try and stop it? Blow on it? Run back and alert who exactly? Even if he phoned the fire department that would've been useless because he/she would need to tell exacly were the burning truck was. The OP is a bloody moron.
firefighters are always on standby to be activated anytime while on duty at the fire station. did you really not know? also, the cameras are situated in the fire station itself, like how most buildings have cameras nowadays...
That was an epically stupid thing to do. What if the firefighters were out on a call??? What if they were out training?? They're not just sitting in the fire house all day, there's a dozen reasons why they leave the station. Unless you just HAPPEN to be on the same block or something, CALL 911 or what ever the local emergency numbers is. Driving a flaming truck is just dumb. Same thing with having chest pains or difficulty breathing etc. Don't go to the station.
Call me cynical but this appears to be a set-up. Maybe as a training exercise or for publicity? You notice the convenient intro of the truck passing in flames in front of a vehicle but with next to no traffic on the road. The driver runs off to the side rather than straight into the station to raise the alarm as you would expect. Finally firefighters come out of the building fully clothed in firefighting gear within seconds of the trucks arrival and approach the situation in a manner than can be described as choreographed, despite this being an extraordinary unusual situation they likely never practiced for. I also noticed one person calmly filming the incident. All in all a bit suspicious
Nobody would drive a flaming truck across serveral blocks for a drill. There is people in the station. People can see the obvious fire. No need for the driver to go into the building to find someone. Of course firefighter comes out within seconds. This is what they trained for. I would say the resuce is not as fast as expected. They can do better.
@@peterpiper4722 first 5 seconds of the video, it states "pine oil". Water makes oil fires worse. Last 10 seconds you can see residue from the foam used to put out the fire.
I don't know if I agree with the driver going to the station but the FD responded well and handled the situation in a professional manner. I do like that there is a lot of room in front of the station. That extra space was useful.
According to the time of camera 11:41:07 the driver gets out of the burning car, 11:41:27 the rescue truck drove out, it only took 20 seconds, you can see the firefighters have their full gear on.0:33 Seamlessly switch from CCTV footage to the perspective of other recording devices.11:42:15 + 15 secs firefighters are already in position waiting for water, all this happened within 1 minute and 30 seconds after the truck driver left the vehicle. You think it’s not fast enough?
As an ex firefighter myself I would say that in their defence they already know that no-one is trapped because they saw the driver get out...also it's obvious the truck is already badly damaged and chances are it will be written off...and nothing else is in any danger of being involved in the fire...to a degree that does take some of the urgency out of the situation and probably affected how they dealt with it....
Similar story occured in my city about two decades ago. An fuel tanker on it's way to distribute their quota to pump stations across the state caught fire. Stuck in a very densely populated urban area, the driver raced towards a bridge at the edge of the town where it is the most open area available nearby (the bridge is roughly 200 to 300 meters long I think), and parked the burning truck in the middle. The driver then turned off the engine and bolted. A massive explosion occured just minutes later, and the old bridge collapses from the explosion. Though the bridge was lost, not a single person was killed or injured in that incident, and the driver was later on awarded by the government for his bravery.
I mean it is, they literally have 8 trucks loaded and ready to fire at will yet the morons just use 1 hose to put it out in which anything can happen since the truck engine could literally blow up sending shrapnel everywhere.

Remarkable that they were all there dressed and ready with multiple high definition cameras in place to capture the action....
It's just standard cctv and phone camera 😂
firefighters are always on standby to be activated anytime while on duty at the fire station. did you really not know?
also, the cameras are situated in the fire station itself, like how most buildings have cameras nowadays...
This is the second video I've come across with the same situation in China that happened within a few days
Unbelievable, they also have camera-guys steady to catch every moment of the firefighters doing their job.
That was an epically stupid thing to do. What if the firefighters were out on a call??? What if they were out training?? They're not just sitting in the fire house all day, there's a dozen reasons why they leave the station. Unless you just HAPPEN to be on the same block or something, CALL 911 or what ever the local emergency numbers is. Driving a flaming truck is just dumb.
Same thing with having chest pains or difficulty breathing etc. Don't go to the station.
When live training rolls up to you. Good job, gentlemen
Imagine sitting at your fire station chilling and this comes your way
Call me cynical but this appears to be a set-up. Maybe as a training exercise or for publicity?
You notice the convenient intro of the truck passing in flames in front of a vehicle but with next to no traffic on the road.
The driver runs off to the side rather than straight into the station to raise the alarm as you would expect.
Finally firefighters come out of the building fully clothed in firefighting gear within seconds of the trucks arrival and approach the situation in a manner than can be described as choreographed, despite this being an extraordinary unusual situation they likely never practiced for.
I also noticed one person calmly filming the incident. All in all a bit suspicious
Nobody would drive a flaming truck across serveral blocks for a drill.
There is people in the station. People can see the obvious fire. No need for the driver to go into the building to find someone.
Of course firefighter comes out within seconds. This is what they trained for. I would say the resuce is not as fast as expected. They can do better.
Only person that acted fast was the truck driver. I can't believe how long it took them to get water onto the fire.
Except it wasnt water... its foam since it was an oil fire
@@KrugerTheFoxClearly it isn't foam and it's a cargo box not oil
@@peterpiper4722 first 5 seconds of the video, it states "pine oil". Water makes oil fires worse. Last 10 seconds you can see residue from the foam used to put out the fire.
@@KrugerTheFoxI stand corrected> My new wording is I can't believe how long it took to get "Foam" onto the fire.
These mobile advertising vehicles are getting brazenly bolder and way too creative.
I don't know if I agree with the driver going to the station but the FD responded well and handled the situation in a professional manner. I do like that there is a lot of room in front of the station. That extra space was useful.
These firefighters are so slow...
According to the time of camera 11:41:07 the driver gets out of the burning car, 11:41:27 the rescue truck drove out, it only took 20 seconds, you can see the firefighters have their full gear on.0:33 Seamlessly switch from CCTV footage to the perspective of other recording devices.11:42:15 + 15 secs firefighters are already in position waiting for water, all this happened within 1 minute and 30 seconds after the truck driver left the vehicle. You think it’s not fast enough?
@@Zhen-Lin-CHN no
As an ex firefighter myself I would say that in their defence they already know that no-one is trapped because they saw the driver get out...also it's obvious the truck is already badly damaged and chances are it will be written off...and nothing else is in any danger of being involved in the fire...to a degree that does take some of the urgency out of the situation and probably affected how they dealt with it....
Glad he was able to get to the fire station before the whole trucks burned down
That dash cam footage looks straight out of a movie scene
must've been bone chilling for the man
They ordered a fire for training purposes, but didn't notice it was same day delivery.
BEING IN CHINA, AND THE FILM CREW WERE ALREADY THERE, THIS HAS TO BE A TRAINING EXCERCISE
Quick Thinking all around !! Great Job to the Driver and Fire Fighters
Any other person would just hop out the truck and run but this dude brave and smart
Similar story occured in my city about two decades ago. An fuel tanker on it's way to distribute their quota to pump stations across the state caught fire. Stuck in a very densely populated urban area, the driver raced towards a bridge at the edge of the town where it is the most open area available nearby (the bridge is roughly 200 to 300 meters long I think), and parked the burning truck in the middle.
The driver then turned off the engine and bolted. A massive explosion occured just minutes later, and the old bridge collapses from the explosion.
Though the bridge was lost, not a single person was killed or injured in that incident, and the driver was later on awarded by the government for his bravery.
To me, 8 minutes to extinguish a fire right in front of the station seems super long.
I mean it is, they literally have 8 trucks loaded and ready to fire at will yet the morons just use 1 hose to put it out in which anything can happen since the truck engine could literally blow up sending shrapnel everywhere.
I want to know what his cargo was. But that is one brave man!
