- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 พ.ย. 2017
- This fast-paced program documents the ancient search for a better way to fight fires. Through dramatic recreations, the audience will be transported back to the first colony in the United States at Jamestown, Virginia, and see how fire nearly destroyed the hopes of these early settlers.
A fire company in Historic Williamsburg, Virginia, reenacts and brings to life the bucket brigades and the first fire pumper used in the colonies. The audience will see how difficult a task fire fighting was for the founders of the country.
While everyone agreed that fire fighting was important, we'll find out how political bosses, bent on preserving their jobs, tried to interfere with the purchase of better fire trucks. Along the way we'll clear up the controversy about Mrs. O'Leary's cow starting the Chicago Fire; see Press Barons use lurid accounts of fire fighters to sell newspapers; learn the real stories of the heroes who've put their lives on the line to make dramatic fire rescues, and find out about the fascinating history of the development of fire fighting technology. At the end we'll see how the majestic fire rigs and fire trucks of yesterday are lovingly restored to their former glory. #firedepartment #firetruck #fire #firefighters #firefighter

So few comments! Just an old fire captain here.
Thanks for warming the heart today! I have worked with many fire apparatus, modern and classic. Love the American La France rigs, quite distinctive. Restored a department apparatus, a Crown Firecoach, to train my crew. We made it so pretty, it's known today as Big John with the Orange County Fire Authority. This warms the heart. This is 20 years ago, hehe.
Big John was named in honor of Monsignior John Sammon. He was the department Chaplain, a dear friend. He helped pin my badge with my mother when I graduated the academy. Again, good times. I joined the Fire Service for a different reason than many, I joined in the spirit of Saint Florian
Ahrens Fox the best.👍👍
That Invincible Quad is a fabulous truck.
ariens fox shelton connecticut is going to celebrate 100 years of her service and still the guardian of shelton,i remember this truck and remember this truck pumping out the housatonic river during the bf,goodrich fire of 1975,for 6 days straight that fire raged and that truck took it like a champ,in that time the bf,goodrich fire was the biggest arson fire in the u,s at that time,there is video footage of that fire and the ariens at work and kicking ass,
Ya know whats really soulless? Those damn LED warning lights. I miss the Federal Beacon Rays and those Dietz beacons. And what is disgusting is fire trucks using those ineffective electronic sirens. A fire truck isn't a firetruck unless it has a working Federal Q2B bug grinder mechanical siren! lol
Saw this on history channel when it first premiered in the late 90s it’s really and hour long show a lot of parts cut out
Too bad. I would have liked to have seen the entire documentary. At least NOW I know where the secrecy, the drunkenness and the constant badgering to the town councils for half million dollar parade firetrucks by volunteer fire departments such as in towns like MINE actually comes from!
Salut my friend super car super video subscribe subscribe
It going to be a big fire again with row housing
in our city if you need oxygen at a fire you get charged a minimum of $240.. if you need a stretcher or medical attention your bill starts at $522.00..you only get help if you can afford it.
Where are you
hot rod daddy yeah where the hell do you live? Because fire departments dont charge money
That's how it should be!
Why should anyone else have to pay for your misfortunes?
@@1N73RC3P7OR All fine and dandy until it's your turn to suffer a misfortune. News flash! It's called "society" where everyone helps everyone else. Now go back under your bridge or your rock.
@@ianfindlay865 Nice try you filthy communist, but I have suffered misfortunes. And I have paid for them out of my own pocket because I am a financialy responsible person.
Nobody owes you anything so stop extorting money from other people and take care of yourself for once in your life.
