I drove down this road during the peak of this fire and I swear it felt like something out of an apocolyptic movie. It was very frieghtening to say the least. God bless these brave firefighters.
I don’t believe in the local newscast journalist in New Jersey. We use TH-camrs and podcast to get the real news out you wouldn’t believe the truth you get from podcast journalist or TH-camr the truth

Hopefully we get some good rain soon to reduce the fire danger. Cool to see that squarebody (B50) and an ol' 7.3 diesel Ford (B38) still in service. That Unimog was a sweet catch too. Hope everyone stays safe out there.
Thanks for the coverage, I have been smelling it all day and did not know the location in Jackson. Thanks! It is crispy out there folks. Watch your cig butts and camp fires.
update: I was wrong he's using a torch to burn away a line of leaves to contain it, this isn't the main fire it's just meant to stop it from spreading farther out by giving it nothing to burn there
Hi there! These videos are really great - thank you for that. Do you know of an online resource (Like CalTopo or GAIA) that shows wildfire history/burn areas in New Jersey? CalTopo shows a very limited number of small incidents - seemingly none of the ones you have covered on this channel.
@@jerseyshorefireresponse So the fire started at the gun range? It must be burnt down then. New reports are that no buildings were lost so I assumed the range and the neighbors were all safe.
Never mind. I just found a news report that some idiot fired Dragons Breath in the PINE BARRONS in the middle of a statewide forest fire alert. Wow, people are stupid. Plus dragons breath is illegal in NJ.
@@jerseyshorefireresponse What type of Ammo were they Shooting which caused this . Tracer Rounds ? cuz those are not allowed at this Range, nor at any other Range afaik . I used to belong to Cherry Ridge up in Vernon. and that was a big No no which would get you booted out of the Club.
Love how blind everyone is to the fact they're the ones who lit the fires, watch it again and pay attention, fire doesn't start by walking on dry leaves, he has a torch in his hand. Its supposed to help burn the surface layer to prevent forrest fires but often runs out of control like the one in Canada did a few years back where the smoke came into the states.
The delusion is real here in the comments haha. They started the fire? No they did not the fire was started by illegal shot gun round fired at a gun range behind these woods. Yes they are lighting a back burn to prevent the head of the fire from getting out of control. Do some research of wild-land fire fighting before you comment things that just aren’t true.
@jerseyshorefireresponse mis-informed because there's no backstory to inform anyone, yeah, but not delusional, especially when you admit I'm right and they did start a back burn.
@@davidbott9401 yeah I got on the computer and realized there's an entire description, I was a City firefighter and never seen this done before and heard very little about it. Thanks for the kind input vs the non professional representative from the department.
67.22% of residents in Ocean County, NJ just voted to put a massive climate change denier in the White House. Looking forward to more cool fire videos!!! Hope everyone stays safe out there …
Curious do you drive a car and heat your home??? If yes then you’re a contributor…. You people act like a president is going to change global warming by themselves. What did Biden do for global warming??? I want facts not your opinion.
Sounds like 67% smartened up and realized the world takes our money for a greener future and actually did squat with our money….. so what did Biden do for global warming??? Do you really believe a president is going to dictate the future of global warming??? We are the people that is causing it and it’s up to us!!! Do you drive a car and heat your home and go to the bathroom??? I am sure the answer is yes. Global warming has nothing to do with politics so take your agenda elsewhere you lost!
So you really think a president decides the future of global warming??? We do because we are the ones causing it!!! Do you operate a car, heat your home, and really just live??? We all contribute to it!!! So tell me what did Biden do to prevent global warming and I would love to hear facts not your opinion. You should really give Trump a chance he might surprise you.
Whoa there, John ~ A “comments” section is just that, a place to make “a verbal or written remark expressing an opinion or reaction.” That’s all I was doing, my friend. Not picking a political fight with you (though you seem more than eager). Just commenting on how pretty clear evidence of our changing climate is present right here in our very back yards, or Asheville, NC’s back yard, etc., yet an entire political party is content to ignore the very facts (aka science) you demand due unabashedly to political and financial gain. I find that pretty sad. Regrettably, politics is now inseparable from climate change. As a nation, policy and law dictate what is required to be done by society (whether they all appreciate it or not) to address any issue on behalf of the greater good. And national policy is set by politicians, and typically the president. Who we just voted for. This can’t be news to you. It’s why citizens should be voting for specific candidates. As for facts about who’s done what, they are readily available to those interested in actual “facts.” You won’t get facts from most tv news outlets. If you truly need me to produce some, try to read these articles from the PEW Research Center, which I have no particular feelings about but picked for you because they appear to be pretty unbiased (see www.allsides.com/news-source/pew-research), if you’re open to that. There is some info on what the Biden admin did here: www.pewresearch.org/science/2023/06/28/2-how-americans-see-bidens-climate-policies/ . The article is more specifically about public opinion re: same, but in doing so it cites Biden admin efforts with links to the efforts cited if you’re really interested in learning more. Which I doubt. Regardless, as requested, that’s just a sampling of facts on what Biden has done. Similarly, PEW has cited where Trump/republicans stand on climate issues: www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2024/03/01/how-republicans-view-climate-change-and-energy-issues/ . Or do your own research, John. It’s not hard if you have an open mind. Nobody’s hiding their policy positions and I’m not making anything up here. The reality is that the party’s are at polar opposites. And for the good people of Jackson, NJ, it just seems a bit counterintuitive to me that people who chose to live in a fire-adapted ecosystem in the first place are comfortable voting against the apparent interest that might have in not exasperating their risks to their family’s safety and personal property. If I lived in Jackson right now and was wondering weather the slowly-worsening effects of climate change or the effects of illegal immigrants were most pressing to my family, I’d simply pay attention to what the sirens outside are actually responding to.
The dusk-into-nighttime footage was first rate. Also, good job including the radio transmissions.
I drove down this road during the peak of this fire and I swear it felt like something out of an apocolyptic movie. It was very frieghtening to say the least. God bless these brave firefighters.
That footage of the family evacuating thru the smoke was amazing. Hope you can get the local tv networks interested in your footage
And very sad
@ yes brought a tear to my eye, thinking about how scared they were
Thanks yeah I really try to capture reality
I don’t believe in the local newscast journalist in New Jersey. We use TH-camrs and podcast to get the real news out you wouldn’t believe the truth you get from podcast journalist or TH-camr the truth

May God bless and keep safe ALL our brave Firefighters, dispatchers, coordinators and First Responders who run INTO danger!!!!......THANK YOU ALL!!!!
I live 14 minutes away from Jackson and I smelled some burning fire all day.
Me too in Point Pleasant
i live an hour away
Thanks for the coverage, I have been smelling it all day and did not know the location in Jackson. Thanks! It is crispy out there folks. Watch your cig butts and camp fires.
Early bird early worm my boy. Nice coverage
Very good footage.Thanks.
Great coverage. If only all our fires out west could be held to under 300 acres........
Here 300 is a good sized fire, out west 300 is small.
The criss cross of roads in New Jersey and it's flatness gives an opportunity to contain the fires.
Great work. Not many get to see the work it takes to do th job.
Well done as always!
Damn! Great footage!
@@SevereWeatherPA thanks!
Great footage ! Thanks for sharing
It was a matter of time with this weather. Dry and windy.
Watch it again closely, they started the fire with torches.
@@DT.JuicyLove, that's the Forest Fire service lighting "back" fires to burn up the leaves and such to stop the actual fire from advancing
Great video
Thanks for the visit
This was a very scary one glad they got to it right away this could have been bad!
Why you don't have any fires in Lakehurst
@@donaldcampo-ji4fethis isn’t lake hurst it’s Jackson
Excellent coverage
What are the odds that these were set intentionally? Is it normal for a fire to spread in a straight line like at 2:00? Thanks
update: I was wrong he's using a torch to burn away a line of leaves to contain it, this isn't the main fire it's just meant to stop it from spreading farther out by giving it nothing to burn there
A unimog fire truck???? Now that is cool.
First time I’ve seen one
Jersey In The House
Brick/Howell NJ area here
I live 50 minutes away from Jackson and I could STILL smell smoke all day.
@@UpcomingLegend6000 yes they fire remaining smoldering
Nice video!

Great video coverage man! What are they pouring on the leaves for fueling the fire?
@@Crazy_Terryy think gas not sure.
@@jerseyshorefireresponse i was thinking diesel but also, not sure. thanks!
drip torch fuel -diesel and gasoline mix
@@slackjawedyokel1 thank you!
Gasoline
6:10 those are after market LED headlights in that truck😂 thats pretty strange to see on a state truck
Beautiful spot to backburn.
@ 4:44 - the irony of the BURN-Stein sign... Strategically placed???
Glad police didn’t show up and try to throw ya out of the area again.
Jackson cops are professional
@@jerseyshorefireresponseYou would think that they would know you and your channel by now.
@@AB-NJyou’d think. It’s why I always have a media won’t with my channel logo on it when I’m doing coverage.
Great job on the footage!
Just a creeping fire with isolated torching back burn big time
Yeah fire gained some power in some clips but the head was deeper in the woods
Filming equipment?
@@path8817 1dx mark ii 24-105mm lens and two night clips were capture with my iPhone
Glassboro is a mess rn. CC woods has to be gone by now. It’s till burning. The next town over is cover in smoke. Can’t see a damn thing outside. 💀
Yes many wildfires across the state right now unfortunately I was busy for that fire and couldn’t cover it.
Any idea how it started? How's the gun range?
Most like munitions from the gun range
@@jerseyshorefireresponse So the fire started at the gun range? It must be burnt down then. New reports are that no buildings were lost so I assumed the range and the neighbors were all safe.
Never mind. I just found a news report that some idiot fired Dragons Breath in the PINE BARRONS in the middle of a statewide forest fire alert. Wow, people are stupid. Plus dragons breath is illegal in NJ.
@@lovesbeer9973yeah at the end of the range. No, no buildings burnt down.
@@jerseyshorefireresponse What type of Ammo were they Shooting which caused this . Tracer Rounds ? cuz those are not allowed at this Range, nor at any other Range afaik . I used to belong to Cherry Ridge up in Vernon. and that was a big No no which would get you booted out of the Club.
So what caused all the wild fires in California and other states?
tree sap is very flammable when in Sun too long on dry days
how did it start?
Illegal gunshot round on the range I’ll be posting a video tomorrow on it.
So glad this wasnt in Brick because we all know how this would have turned out!
Local fire company’s had zero to do with fire suppression at wildfires it’s the state.
Lots of engines driving around not doing anything. 10min into the video I've seen multiple areas to go direct.
They were most likely on their way to their assigned area for structure protection
What about wildlife?
They flee or they die. Part of the design is to give the wildlife a way out.
Yea they are smart & the fire wasn’t burning fast enough to entrap them.
0:27 See that black hard box with IC on it? If you see that it is a coordinated arson fire. Firefighters are arsonists.
👩🚒❤️🤙🙏
There wasn’t a police officer too on site that could’ve helped that family out… I think that’s pretty messed up
@@kristofernorris7108 there were multiple Jackson PD & sheriffs on site from start to finish. All scene in this video.
1:51 Arsonists ... don't give these drunkards a penny when they beg for money at traffic lights.
Emmy
tuck your shirts in guys
Bunch of personal not doing anything in this video
