What a great presentation. Everything was so eloquently explained. The knowledge of this firefighter is enormous. I am ALWAYS impressed by South Metro personnel. Thank you for continuing to share.
wonderful. my father said his smoke alarm kept beeping, but he had a stroke and couldn't use his ladder. unit came out, they completely replace both of Daddy's smoke alarms for free. "we'd rather you call for a simple thing like this, than recover you out of smoldering ruins." why they are everyday heros.
This is really a thorough review of everything on the Ladder truck. I mean really well done. After viewing all of this one can see that this Ladder Truck is ready for just about anything. This might have been a long video, but Justin made it go by very quickly and is worthwhile to watch it over again. Thanks for doing an excellent job of explaining how things function on this outstanding looking rig. Great video content. I know a young mom who lives in the Springs who is interested in becoming a fire fighter and will be encouraging her to check out all your videos.
I'm not even a US citizen, but i can surely say that u guys real life savers, all of you: Police, Firefighters, Medical etc. Only respect and proud of u! I wish to have something like US emergency agencies in my country.
Justin killed it on this! Clearly has immense knowledge of everything on the rig and all of his duties - and he's damn good at explaining it, too. Well done to the PIO team and Justin.
Best "Fleet Friday" I have seen yet, and well worth the time. I do not work for or owe anything to Pierce, but they make the best ladder trucks and fire engines; that is just my opinion. I would also have this guy on my crew anytime, he is extremely knowledgeable. I bet he would be a fine paramedic and I am confident he is a fine firefighter. I would want a fellow fire fighter like him working with me. Sharp as a tack. Stay safe out there and take care.
I would love to see a series showing uncut, unedited calls (fire, vehicle accidents, etc.) from start to finish. Starting at the station from the moment the call comes in, seeing how fast they are out the door, how long it takes to get there and finish the job, and just overall get a better sense of what a call is like from start to finish.
You can’t have uncut or unedited videos of certain calls due to patient privacy concerns, legal reasons and possibly time constraints. Eric and Connor are very good at what they do and that’s probably why you don’t see videos like that.
I the day in the life of a firefighter, Justin had mentioned that the Pirates of Broadway and the Main Street Screamers and other companies had stickers. Could y’all put them on the next community store? Thanks in advance
Very cool. Our local department Truckee Meadows Fire Protection District here in Washoe County NV is also going with the same black on red theme for their apparatus.
Well-designed rig. I'm always amazed when I see compartments 1-20 % full. Spending tens of thousands of dollars for nothing. With the exception of your charger compartment, it's well done.
Great job, So assume this Ladder was pre-merger, so is the goal to replace this with a Tower or keep one ladder in the dept. Assume there are pro's and cons to each
Do your engines carry standpipes (not right name I don’t think but don’t know what it’s called) but a pipe that can connect to a hydrant where you can then connect many hoses to them? Lastly do they carry Y’s or C’s (where you can spelt hoses off another hose to make it longer if needed? Also do your engines have reel lines (I assume not) and pre-connects (I assume yes)?
I just don't get it, why do US ladder trucks carry more extrication equipment then engines? Like: "there is a car wreck that caused a traffic jam, responding with the largest, unwieldiest vehicle, that carries little to no water, and carries a specialized complex mechanism, that has no use on 80% of car accidents (the ladder) totally makes sense..."
Great Demo and well maintained appliance. Out of interest how do you monitor your firefighters when they wearing BA inside a structure? All the best from Lancs fire rescue , England 👍
@07:14 do you guys run non emergent lockouts or just emergent lockouts? We are one of the very few departments around that run non emergent. As long as the registered owner is on scene we will let you sign saying you don't hold us accountable for any damage and we will pop the lock for you. Basically if you lock your keys in your car, and you are the owner (or co-owner) of said car, we will pop the lock for you, no matter if its running, a child (or disabled person), or pet is in the car. If we have first due units tied up you will wait, if its emergent we will send other units even if first due units are tied up.
The reason was because Ladder 12 was purchased by Littleton Fire Rescue along with Tower 18 to diversify their fleet while South Metro Fire had all towers before the merger between the two agencies so they kept the ladder.
Can’t tell you but they both style of aerials seem to work great in the US probably has to deal with how the infrastructure and the style of firefighting the US has.
So here's a question specific to ladder and tower trucks - at funeral s and precessions, the ladder / towers always are displaying a large American flag. Does each ladder / tower truck have their own flag? Presume it's not always on the rig, but rather stored at the station and pulled only when (sadly) needed? Presume, like all the other equipment on the rig, it is bought as a separate item after time of release from the manufacturer?
Usually the fire department honor guard has one or two Garrison Flags which are 20x38 feet in size. They’re not kept on the apparatus but could be kept at a fire station with the ladder / tower apparatus.
@@SouthMetroFireRescuePIO Wow! That response was about as fast as if you got a call out!! Thank you for the quick reply! We have family friends that live in Centennial, and it comforts me to know they have such a top notch department there for their protection!! Thank you for all the great (and very informative) videos! Love Station Saturdays and Fleet Fridays!!
Arm 37 is a special unit that has the capabilities of an ER and will run minor medicals to help evaluate the paitent and decide whether they need transport to an ER or not
Hi guys u made me to be interested in firefighters skills I have finished my level one but I wish u can accept me in ur company I wanna know more about firefighter plz
Who all remembers him from day in a life of a firefighter
I thought he looked familiar.
Me
I do
He is my favourite
It was the video which brought me to this channel.
What a great presentation. Everything was so eloquently explained. The knowledge of this firefighter is enormous. I am ALWAYS impressed by South Metro personnel. Thank you for continuing to share.
I appreciate how in depth and knowledgeable FF Justin is about his equipment he operates with. Stay safe.

Very well stated. And absolutely true.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO! Big Respect
Great video! I like how in-depth this guy gets. It's nice to see other people's tools and how they relate!

Yay you got Justin from day in the life to do this
When I saw the pic for the video I wondered if it would be the same guy from a day in the life of a firefighter...and it is!
I’ve been waiting for this for so long! Such an amazing rig!
Always have seen the rig outside the station but rarely i have caught it responding even tho they are usually busy
Follow @colorado_fire_ems on instagram for a bunch of ladder 12 videos
4:19 I like that he mentioned rescuing a person AND a dog. Dogs need the help, too. Glad he recognizes that!
Thank you Kim Connor and Eric from your friend Kyle
One of the best videos yet. I hope to see him more. He explains very well. Thank you.
Damn, those biceps. You know that he definitely hits the gym for sure.
I love the profession of firefighters and God bless you all, thank you so much for saving lives,💖💯🙌🇧🇷

what a thorough and engaging run-through. He really knows his truck inside out and quite articulate with it. Really someone how loves his job.
EXCELLENT walk-around. Know your truck, know your tools.
Hello, in the city where I live SLO, CA. Fire Station 3 is on the corner of my block the guys there are great!! I thank them for all they do.
Justin killed it on this! Clearly has immense knowledge of everything on the rig and all of his duties - and he's damn good at explaining it, too. Well done to the PIO team and Justin.
Outstanding presentation!!!
Asumeness ❤️ Littleton Colorado!!!!!!!!!!!!!!¡!👍
Omg I have been waiting this long as well for this rig. Best rig in south metro!
this was very good tour of your rig best ever keep up the good work stay safe

Them are some of the bravest people that I have ever seen. Love from West Virginia volunteer fire department.

You could call it something like, "Ride Along"
You can’t have uncut or unedited videos of certain calls due to patient privacy concerns, legal reasons and possibly time constraints. Eric and Connor are very good at what they do and that’s probably why you don’t see videos like that.
trust me, a good half hour to an hour of cleaning hoses and restocking trucks isn't interesting haha.
Justin rocked the presentation. Very knowledgeable!!!!!!!
Nice job and detail of The Black Pearl from Justin. Justin looks thinner than his premier in day in the life...j/k. Nicely done and stay safe!!
He did a Terrific job explaining the Truck and its tools that the Truck has and how the tools work for different jobs and tasks.
Nice to see a video on full air systems and maintenance facility of the SCBA’s tanks and auxiliary systems.
Nice to see Justin again
Outstanding presentation. BE SAFE!
I made this truck as a mod in a firefighting game. Love y'alls rigs.
🔥🔥🔥another awesome video i love watching y’all channel💪💯
Thats a very cool Ladder and station 🙏🏻
man, the station 12 video was shorter than this. this ladder is huge
I the day in the life of a firefighter, Justin had mentioned that the Pirates of Broadway and the Main Street Screamers and other companies had stickers. Could y’all put them on the next community store? Thanks in advance
Good to see he is still working there!
This is an Awesome Video tour of this piece of apparatus 👏👏👏 Thanks
Very cool. Our local department Truckee Meadows Fire Protection District here in Washoe County NV is also going with the same black on red theme for their apparatus.
Excellent review of Ladder 12, kudos FF Justin!
Great video and information
Thank you I very appreciate it to tell us everything and how they work
GREAT Video! VERY interesting and informative. Now I understand why Home Depot is always out of Husky tool bags and totes! 😆
Wow! Very interesting. Thanks.
When will there be the next vlog you guys go to so much fire on PulsePoint and also is the station Saturday of station 61 I mean 21 this Saturday
The next station saturday should be next month, they do station Saturday's once a month.
i´ve waiting this video many time thank youuu
Absolutely no doubt that this man is going far, perhaps even chief.
Well-designed rig. I'm always amazed when I see compartments 1-20 % full. Spending tens of thousands of dollars for nothing. With the exception of your charger compartment, it's well done.
Awesome video, thank you.
2nd favorite series straight after the day in the life series
BEST YET !
That’s awesome I’m going to the academy in December
Great job, So assume this Ladder was pre-merger, so is the goal to replace this with a Tower or keep one ladder in the dept. Assume there are pro's and cons to each
Black ladder is soooo nice
Ladder 12 is BEAUTIFUL..!

Can you please show us how the equipment works?
so i wanted to be a volunteer emt could u do more ems videos or do a day in the life of a ems chief
I just don't get it, why do US ladder trucks carry more extrication equipment then engines?
Like: "there is a car wreck that caused a traffic jam, responding with the largest, unwieldiest vehicle, that carries little to no water, and carries a specialized complex mechanism, that has no use on 80% of car accidents (the ladder) totally makes sense..."
There’s just something about Justin that makes him my favorite
On your search rope how far apart are your knots spaced apart? On the end of your stick look like you had 2 pieces of webbing what are they for?
Do you have a rapid response truck ?
Great Demo and well maintained appliance. Out of interest how do you monitor your firefighters when they wearing BA inside a structure? All the best from Lancs fire rescue , England 👍
Do you guys have an email. I have made a picture I would like to share with you :)
Engine-36, Medic-36 & Station-36. All suggestion's for Station Saturday and Fleet Friday!
There are fleet fridays on E16 and M16 which are basically the same as E and M36 and the station Saturday will be done eventually

They do respond to non-emergent lockouts
@@anton2006 that’s great, not too many departments do it anymore.
OUTSTANDING. ! ! ! 👍👍🇺🇸
Pierce needs to hire him as a ladder apparatus trainer
wow what a interesting video
Is there just a station with a engine and Battalion chief
There is a station (22) with a Battalion (5), Engine (22), Brush (22), and Fan (22) at the station.
What will be for the next fleet Friday
What station is battalion 2 at and what station is safety 12 at
Best Fleet Friday
Can engine 21 or brush 21 have the next fleet Friday or have one
what song is this?
Why does only station 12 have a ladder truck ,but other stations have tower trucks?
The reason was because Ladder 12 was purchased by Littleton Fire Rescue along with Tower 18 to diversify their fleet while South Metro Fire had all towers before the merger between the two agencies so they kept the ladder.

Station 12 doesn't have an Engine. Battalion 2, Ladder 12, Medic 12 and Rehab 12 are stationed there.
