Yeah not a lot of people realize this but nowadays a big enough EMP bomb can do more damage then a nuke. Because yes a nuke can destroy a city and poison an entire state or a small country. BUT An EMP can take out the entire electrical system of entire regions of the world and since we live in the digital era almost every single damn thing we own has electronics that would be fried from an EMP. And when you add in the fact that some nukes actually have EMP capabilities in them it makes it even worse. to put it simply big bomb can kill you instantly. Well an EMP would reduce all of your technology capability back to the Stone Age. Not even the iron age because a lot of forging shit also has technology nowadays. We would get mad max world without even any of the vehicles! Or at least vehicles being extremely rare.
Your alarm will also not go off so you'll get to sleep in too! Everybody wins, except all the people having an emergency they can't call in but that is no longer your problem.

EMP & worrying about it is stupid? Me drops a Carrington event on the discussion *After analysing observational data from the STEREO probes, NASA researchers announced in 2014 that the Earth had narrowly escaped a ‘solar superstorm’ two years earlier, on 23 July 2012. The event was as strong outside the Earth as the Carrington event of 1859.* 😅
Fun fact: a lot of modern equipment is shielded against low power emp and even then the most common source of emps is still a nuclear bomb so the emp isn't that big of a problem
I would say that the sun is a more common source. (but well engineered vital system account for them in some shape or form. The problem is with the not well engineered kind)
@@zsomborszarka2616yeah, because if we get nuked, it’s pretty likely there will be bigger issues than the EMP. Like sure, that’s bad, but compared to the whole, yk, russia having enough nukes to dispatch every city over 100k in the USA 17 times over, it doesn’t seem that bad.
Slight correction: many small electronics (including phones, but not cell towers) would be fine not due to shielding but because the circuit runs are too short/small for the EM pulse to act across to induce a large enough current to damage any of the components.
And since that looked like a Cummins engine under that cab, I’d say a local Cummins shop would get that and go “what did it get struck by lightning?” “Uuhhh kinda?”
"collAPSIng!!!" (epic delivery, on everything. worth the rewatch just for the facial expressions. seriously was flaying him with that voice yet 😃 showing the equip fails!)

To be perfectly honest, only weapon anyone has that can discharge an emp strong enough to do that is a nuke and at that point you have bigger concerns lol
@@SCEVOi think you're getting EMPs and EMP Generators confused. EMPs are just pulses of power that overload circits. Nukes can create a EMP as they go off, especially if they explode in the upper atmosphere (no ground to insulate it). The military does have weaponized EMPs like you said though, they're pretty nice since they are more directed so you can dial in a really strong pulse into a distinct area so it only hits your enemies. All that said every device has some level of shielding due to the way electricity works and important devices can get more as needed with its respective drawbacks. lastly you can make a personal emp generator out of a modified stun gun to really see in action how there are different strengths of EMPs
@@SCEVO nukes generate an EMP upon detonation, especially higher up in the atmosphere they are, there are military EMP weapons but I doubt anyone would use those on non military targets short of a terrorist attack, but most terrorist try to get as many kills with their attacks as possible, not really looking to disable shit like an ambulance or firetruck, be more effective to take out a sam site or disable some tanks or scramble our guiding systems for stuff like a Javelin or loiter munitions like drones than to take out emergency service vehicles
@@thelostpsychosis yeah they generate an EMP when they explode but the EMP is probably the last thing that's important if we talk about a nuke when the new kids everything going to be exploded The EMP ain't going to be that important
There's something to be said for the reliability, maintainability, and availability of mechanical controls over electronics. An EMP isn't a major concern, though.
As someone who has a background in tech and is one heart attack away from a pacemaker, the scariest thing to me is an em pulse...not so much because of what the EMP can do...but because one goes off near me...and i dont get to hit the button.
Just read a medical paper the other day about a Saudi kid that had an implanted monitor due to an ongoing cardiac issue. While out playing with friends, he was struck by lightning. The paper included the "strip" of his cardiac monitor, which remained functioning despite exposure to the strong magnetic field and megavoltage, showed initial arrest, then v-fib for a few seconds, then he returned to normal sinus. His two friends did not survive.

Incorrect. You left out coronal mass ejections (CME). There could be even more destructive. They could disable not only all the satellites but also a larger portion of the globe. We’ve had these before and they blew up telegraph lines and started fires. Now with EVERYTHING being electronic, a CME would be debilitating.

I love when everyone uses the ultra catastrophic event as the excuse, like bro, if that happens - I’m not gonna be hangin around the firehouse waitin for calls 😂
You don’t have to worry, the extremely short wire lengths in a pacemaker make them pretty resistant to an EMP. You’d basically have to be struck by lightning to disrupt one, and at that point you’d have bigger problems.
To be fair a lot of things a lot more emp resistant than others. So one strong enough to fry your phone may not be strong enough to fry your truck or your fridge

My main issue with the electric trucks is that there’s not enough data to support them, harder to maintain and how bad lithium ion is for the environment

I hope it hits right after I clock in. That way 20 years from now when the power comes back on I’ll still be on the clock.
I LOVE the quick cut sequence of you presenting each electronic device :D
I love when everyone uses the ultra catastrophic event as the excuse, like bro, if that happens - I’m not gonna be hangin around the firehouse waitin for calls 😂
As a person with a pacemaker, that's one of my fears 😂
You don’t have to worry, the extremely short wire lengths in a pacemaker make them pretty resistant to an EMP. You’d basically have to be struck by lightning to disrupt one, and at that point you’d have bigger problems.
I legitimately had to have this talk with my mother, just not with a fire pump system 😂
Not to mention the 911 system and about every phone in modern use.
To be fair a lot of things a lot more emp resistant than others. So one strong enough to fry your phone may not be strong enough to fry your truck or your fridge
Jason is a editing and acting GOD!😂 SO GOOD!
Jason reminds me of a drill Sargent 😂
Jason made a video of him in Angry Cop's (a drill sgt on TH-cam) studio in the background
🤣🤣
Last time i saw red like that, i was buying tomatoes... similar shape too, just less... angry. 😂😂🤣
This has got to be one of the best channels on here 😂 theyre so awesome
Thank you for your support! 😁
Was expecting him to scream after all that 😂
Or just tell him the coffee machine wont work anymore
Nah, that one is for the rest of the firefighters.
And a warning to start avoiding Natalie cuz she gets really savage if she goes without coffee.
@@justinyu5892 that's why I keep my ancient gasoline stove and percolator around.
That might just cause a heart attack, LOL
@@PioneerGirl08yup, this one; and the survivors would be staring down rising panic.
That’ll do it for me, lol
"S-so just slide it over?" He witnessed a wrathful god and PRAYED he could somehow salvage his mess 😭
I have a feeling that most people with an elderly relative can relate to Jason's frustration...
I thought his mustace was real😢😢😢
🤔🤭
"Physically pushing the truck to the next call" 😅 Fentons face.
Damn! That is some sweet talking!
Dude, i really hope u act your way out to movies. loving it
Watch that blood pressure there Jason lmao
The passive aggressive smile as Jason gestures to every feature on the truck is why I keep replaying 😂
Priceless!🤣🤣
I swear the truckie mind is funny and fenton is the representative and his moustache is the main attraction hes just a pedestal 😂😂😂😂
😅🤭😁
@@FireDeptCoffee I'm not wrong Fenton is funny and his moustache makes a great point but Jason with the logic just makes this even funnier :)
The moment he said "you know what else" I immediately went "this guy has a pacemaker doesn't he?
my spidey senses say somebody is actively being prevented from goin’ senile pre retirement. hang in there Fenton!! Jason, bringin’ heavy clutch with unprecedented torque🫡
He just wanted to be prepared...
"He's out of line, but he's right".
LMAO this is exactly my thought when my stepdad talks about the new electric trucks
Yeah but his point is valid. All mechanical vehicles can still work
My main issue with the electric trucks is that there’s not enough data to support them, harder to maintain and how bad lithium ion is for the environment
Yeah, but you forget that the MOST IMPORTANT THING OF ALL WILL BE LOST: *_The Coffee Machine._*
Noo😭
😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
I loved this so much, the energy in this video is just great 😂😂😂
“The engine!”
Steam powered pumpers: “aye we heard you guys had a problem with EMP’s, don’t worry kiddos, the professionals are here”
Sounds like he could be talking to my granddad
I hope the mustache guy doesn't get ill
Depending on the size of the EMP, it could take months or even years to fully rebuild the infrastructure
Weaponized EMPs have not been successful in reality. SciFi fantasy doesn't count.
also the pumps that supply water to the hydrants
This better shrink the footprint of firetrucks.
It's the same with people being afraid of smart home listening, while their smartphone is in their pocket at all time.
Or that the government will track them if they use [Blank] news flash the government already has. Use a cell phone well that can be tracked over a dozen ways (cell towers, internet, banking, GPS)
A car (where you got fuel car type and we’ll GPS)
Banking…. Pretty easy to locate due to expenses or withdraws are all logged.
Or the CIA spy satellite that can spit a orange from orbit (real thing)
Why does a firetruck have a built-in SAM anti-air system
Bro got so red, he deserves an Oscar for that display of rage
That is one hell of a mustache. Well done sir.
It's fake, sadly lol
I think it gets bigger every video.
How many Chewbaccas has he shaved to get that?
@sparky2057 it doesn't lol go look back at his page, there are times he has a normal mustache
👏👏
@@FireDeptCoffee sorry to spill the beans, boss
