Pre Arrival 2 Alarm Structure Fire Brick New Jersey 9/12/23
OC - Brick - 58 Joseph Byrne Dr - Two Alarms - Residential Structure Fire
Around 2:30 AM Brick Township Police received a call for a reported structure fire in the Laurelton section of Brick Township. Due to the reports in the call of fire and with PD arriving quickly on scene after dispatch confirming fire through the roof, headquarters and the first due Chief upgraded the assignment Two Alarms. Bringing in the rest of Brick Township company along with Point Pleasant Boro & Point Pleasant Beach to cover Station 23. First due Chief and Command (2300) sized the structure up as a two story wood from structure with well involved D side with fire. First due apparatus was to stretch a 2.5 line to the D side and attack the fire & set up for master stream ops. 2325 stretched a 2.5 and attacked the bulk of the fire and exposure. Multiple other hand lines & master streams were used in efforts with fire suppression. There were no reported injuries and the cause of the fire is currently unknown to us & is under investigation by the Brick Township Fire Bureau.
Thank you.

Wow! Training is needed!!! 8 years on the force and I’ll tell you right now if we were that slow to get wet stuff on the hot stuff we’d be in training for weeks. That was a horrible response from the start
not training thats needed. Professional paid fire depts are needed.
Volunteer firefighters can be trained as well as professional firefighters. In fact, where I live alle firefighters get the same training. 2 mins 15 secs between arrival and first drips of water is way too slow. Should be less than 30 secs.
@@ivowitkamp7587 oh brother here we go… you don’t get the same training as someone who does it as full time job.. plus full timer typically get way more work cause they usually work in areas that actually get fires.
@@bobbys1984 you know nothing of where I live. All firefighters get the same firefighting-training. Yes profs get more experience due to more incidents in their area. But when a volunteer completed training, he can opt for a career in firefighting without additional training if there is a position available at a station with professionals. Also, during summer and winter holiday season, it is not uncommon that some volunteers actually do some of the 24hr shifts at a occupied station while some of the career-colleagues are enjoying a holiday with their family. Only those who opt to become driver-operator, diver (water-rescue), straw-roof specialism, nature fire fighting or chief etc get additional training to gain their specialism. Volunteers can also do those trainings to specialize, depending on what specialism are performed by their station. Around 80% of all firefighters in my country are volunteers.
@@ivowitkamp7587 1. I know that where you live doesn’t get many fires cause volunteers don’t work in heavy workload inner cities, anywhere. 2. You basically just told me that you scab out the job when other career guys could be getting OT pay instead, you’re coming in there like a rat working their shifts for free. 🤦🏻♂️
The 2 feet you moved back made you safer. Just a young Cop that has to have control over everything.
That's what you took away from this video???
I was about to comment the same thing lol
Yea Ryan handled that just fine Let the dude film, He is also allowed to do his job.
The cop should have something to do better than harass the other side of the street.
Always completely agree and comply. Move away then move back. Works for me.
The irony of the cop telling you that you need to move when their police cars are exactly where the truck and engine need to be has me dying😂
Small town cops, don’t understand the fire ground, I’d blame the training.
It's like the RCMP blocking runaway truck ramps 😂
NO SHIT...!!!@@jerseyshorefireresponse
He looks like he just graduated high school.
Just a tropical jerk cop on a power trip.
Almost 7 minutes from the first company's arrival until someone got the brilliant idea to conduct a primary search!!!
Pre-arrival videos are educational. Most useful to me.
Glad you like them!
Yep. Set-up fascinates me and can make or break a battle
You don’t get pre arrival videos when paid people are there. Cause a guy with a scanner isn’t beating them to every fire.
@@bobbys1984 Exactly.
Videographer sure catches a lot of flak from Law Enforcement on these scenes. I would be looking to partner with the local FD to share the videos for training purposes in exchange for enough of a uniform to not be hassled while documenting these incidents. Hat and a jacket maybe? Tell PD to go work on traffic!
You were fine . You never put yourself in harms way and never put yourself in any position to obstruct fire department operations. Just a cop on a power trip that didn’t like you not jumping to his unlawful directive. Good job standing your ground you did nothing wrong ! Anyway great video . Stay safe
I agree with you on this one. The videographer was safe from the fire & not in any ones way. I don't think cop was on a power trip, just wanted to keep people safe & from the area. I think we need people recrding these things as they often record when things go wrong & can be used later for training, that's very important.
It is the same everywhere. Cops get adrenalin up, think they should be doing something but there is nothing for them to do so they hassle the photographers.
@@philsmidwestclassiccars150 Unfortunately I believe it is a power trip. And worse than that, many of these small communities in NJ don't want their fire operations being recorded in order to protect themselves from lawsuits or criticism. It's just a sad fact that not enough money is given to these departments to be as good as they can be.
@@ecw5394 these districts could pay firefighters anytime they want and they certainly can afford it with the amount of tax revenue they’re receiving.
Yes, the cop was definitely on an authoritarian power trip. You were not doing anything wrong. Thank you for continuing to record.
As a captain I will loose it anytime I am needing water like now and the chauffer doesn't know how to get the apparatus pumping! I understand mistake happens but there's no excuse if not a mechanical issue! Great coverage JS Fire Response!
I'm at one with you on this issue.
It's typical with these N.J. VFD's. This guy beats the FD to the scene WAY too often. All the FD's in this area should be career not volly anyway.
Sounded like he was too busy messing with the outriggers to give them water, ya know, ladders put out fire not water
Me to, put the pump in gear before leaving the truck then recec. tank to tank till they got hoses out, then bam, water flowing.
@@KZhead_Professor This. If you have to connect a line or what ever, that water is ready to send, and you already know you have pressure and just need to set it at whatever pressure setting you need.
Glad that there were no injuries to anyone related to this incident, and wow I couldn't believe how quickly that fire went up the side of the house and into the attic and across the roof. Once they opened up that ladder pipe they started gaining on it. Thank you to all firefighters for participating the citizens of your coverage area.
Great vid. Love the pass alarm going off for almost two minutes 😂 chief would have my head for that.
Absolutely a horrible fire attack! Very slow to make entry and put water on the fire. A good department would have had a quick knock on this fire and spared the home of alot of damage.
You have been knocked in the head. How long have you been a knowitall?
i was just wondering when the guys at the front door just yacking no line advacentment no ladder work . i would be embaresed if it were company and it looks like they are chief .
@@lilakyne7590 Do you carry ladders on your recliner?
While they were stretching that first line someone should have been making entry to fire building ready to go interior with second line
Watching these, you never think about what the owners have to deal with in the aftermath. It's got to be devastating. Even if you haven't lost everything, it's still going to change their lives for at least a year just to find a temporary place to live, not to mention whatever was lost and irreplaceable.
i know the girl that lives there. she is one of my best friends so devastating for her😢thankfully no injuries
I lost everything in a storage unit fire no thanks to my moms stupid off and on fling leaving a candle to burn in there… it absolutely sucks. :/
@@autumn9067 Did everyone including animals get out safe?
@@sharongagnist6428 yes thankfully
@@autumn9067 thank you for the update.
I have seen videos where the first engine to arrive pulls straight up in front, engineer jumps out and goes to the pump control. On the other side of the engine, fully geared up firefighters jump out, grab a hose and have water on the fire within 60 seconds. That usually does not happen everywhere, including here. It is critical to get water on the fire immediately.
Your obviously not in the fire service, most truck companies dont have a tank or pump, there supplied by an engine.
You are making my point. I did say "engine". They all need to have a supply on on-board water to use while hooking to a hydrant. Hopefully there are hydrants. @@user-tt1ge1yi3q
You are. They are.@@user-tt1ge1yi3q
First due in this case didn’t have a tank. Second due did. They were waiting on water supply. So with the order the trucks came and their equipment on scene they had an excellent arrival to water time.
@user-tt1ge1yi3q this truck does have a supply as you clearly see. I'll believe it if it was a Tiller truck
Wow...alittle long on the water there Brick😮😮😮
Glad that there were no injuries to anyone related to this incident, there was a lot of fire blowing through the roof. Once they opened up the lader pipe, they knocked it down quick. Thank you to all firefighters everywhere for protecting the citizens of your coverage area.
Very poor fire tactics though they destroyed the whole house for no reason.
@@user-tt1ge1yi3qvolunteers… embarrassing to have to rely on them when taxes are this high.
@@bobbys1984 This region of NJ absolutely should be 100% career FD's.
They rush to get there in the trucks only to stand around to watch it burn. Wow.
FALSE TROLL.. THERE'S WAS WATER ON THE FIRE JUST KEEP WATCHING
Yes they got water in it but it took 5 mins. We have water on a fire within 60 seconds of arrival with high pressure reels while hydrants are hooked up. Something that US fire departments got rid of for some reason 🤷🏼♂️
@1540 If we are using these videos for training, then to all young and aspiring firefighters that is exactly how not to take a window safely. Gravity + broken glass means dont position yourself directly below it. When time is no longer a factor, take the extra moments to ensure you keep yourself and your crew safe.
Brick FD is a complete "how not to" example.
How about some basic firefighting, forcible entry and search for victims before master stream. Just saying....
🤡🤡👈👈
Basic fire fighting would be to use a deck gun.
Looks like someone put the lawnmower away in a rush or something. That shed looks to be the origin.
Or greasy rags.
Thank you capitan obvious,for your commentary!
Let's stop and hope everyone is doing ok right let's stop and honor and appreciate the paramedics and firemen who proudly serve us your service and time and efforts are deeply appreciated great job great catches as usual still going strong keep them safe out there way to go love and appreciate you guys thanks you guys rock ! Joe
You've already posted that a month ago. It's still as bad as it was then.
Let's stop and get an education before we let everybody know we're sub-literate.
You got to show up with ALL of your gear on. Be ready to fight fire and save lives.
Very happy to see that ladder truck being utilized for what it's designed for.
How long does a PASS alarm have to sound on the scene of a fire before someone addresses it?!?!?!?
i often wonder same thing! my old chief would have had our hide for that
You can see the radiant heat starting to affect the next house on the D side. We who watch these videos have no idea about how hot this gets.
How.....VERY..............TRUE!.........KUDOS!!
Not trying to Monday morning quarterback… judging by what I can see in the video an exposure/exterior line is obviously need which was taken care of relatively quickly. That being said it seems to be a common theme in this area of a complete lack of aggressive firefighting. I line through the front door and a search should have been a priority that was done much earlier in the incident. The ladder pipe seems that it just pushed the fire through the attic. Again nothing against the members it seems like there isn’t an aggressive firefighting culture in this area.
Some FD jurisdiction’s SOP’s are against aggressive firefighting, sadly.
If you watch closely enough, you can see them shooting water through holes in the roof from the inside WHILE the ladder pipe is in operation. Which is absolutely asinine to me. You never have crews operating inside while the ladder pipe is flowing....
agreed, but their biggest problem in that area is response time. Everyone of this kids videos him and the cops are on scene waiting a lifetime for the first company to arrive.
@@justanotherguy1110 thats true, but this fire should have never had to utilize a master stream.
@@bobbys1984 I agree with you there....
2:30 Ryan you handled that like a pro. This officer was probably unfamiliar with your consistent coverage. Men who call other people "boss" like that, especially cops. Cringe
I totally agree, boss!
@@mgratk lmao Alright chief
The only thing that is cringeworthy here is the goober telling us “ it’s rippin several times and other asinine comments like “ it’s chugging “ . The cop was doing his job. Sometimes you get away with standing on the lawn of the burning house and film … other times you gotta stand across the street . We still understand what’s happening
Hey boss let me tell you what you are going to do. And yes, we pay their salary so we are boss.
I've been to a lot of fires in NJ. The cops are tyrants. Its as simple as that. Sometimes they will yellow tape an entire block just to avoid operations being recorded. Frequently nothing to do with safety@@BigDuke-md8ec
The paramedics and firemen deserve a lot of credit your service and time and efforts are deeply appreciated thanks don't work to hard love and appreciate you guys thanks you guys rock still going strong keep them safe out there let's stop and hope everyone is doing ok right ? Joe
Appreciate what? Allowing another house to burn down?
@@bobbys1984 That's what these people get for not demanding a career fire dept. in an area that could EASILY support them.
I love when people who don’t have a clue what they’re talking about comment
@@stevechisamore8691 are you talking about me, been a career firefighter for over a decade. And watch the volunteer model fail time and time again in certain areas.
@stevechisamore8691 I love when people like you make insecure comments like yours while not explaining where and how people show that they have no clue. Aren't you projecting just a little?
got to love when police do that not even in the way keep it up love the videos
Darn that a real going job, the amount of exposures.
I'm more than sure the neighbors will all pitch in and let you use their garden hoses in the meantime. That's how Jersey rolls!
Good video, especially given because that cop didn’t like you being there!
Cops don't like cameras
The police dont have a clue what to do around a fire. The firemen just stand around and look at it all they needed was a deck gun to knock down 90 percent of the fire. Ladder trucks are useless when first getting to a fire.
Thank you firefighters for being out there in these hard times. God bless you all.😊
Modern fire trucks have water inside them so you can start fighting the fire almost immediately. Water is the most important element in firefighting.
Took so long to get water on the fire, but good job getting it out.
I don't understand the strategy of only aiming the water at one specific point and leaving it there for a long long time meanwhile other spots on the roof are erupting in flames. The back of the house has flames but seems to be totally ignored. I'm not pretending to critique it, I'm just asking why.
Not a professional firefighter but as a Brit one wonders why so many units respond to a house fire. Most of those attending seem to be spectators. We have a phrase: "All the gear no idea".
I’m pretty sure that British firefighter are never going to complain about having too much manpower. It allows crews to cycle in and out.
My local fire department would be there before the ads finish playing 😂
DON'T tell me you're proud of that fire attack......
OMG what did I just watch?
You have to feel for the homeowners. Work hard for what you have and then destroyed. At least there were no injuries. This is why you have insurance. Material loss is just that it can be replaced. Looks like it might have started in the shed next to the house, then extended to the home.
Likely the house and contents are a complete loss. A family I know lost their home to fire just after Christmas. Fire started with the electrical plug to the refrigerator. While the house was structurally okay - fire did not get through the roof or into the second floor, there was nothing salvagable due to smoke and water damage. They decided to tear down the remains and build new from scratch.
House and contents were a loss? It was an exterior fire with extension into the attic. There’s a hell of a lot of house and contends that can still be saved.
@@BrianM1023 dude this is knock down..fire was embarrassingly handled. the fact that it start outside and made it into the house is black and white proof why in most areas down the shore, you should have a paid service. but nothing changes down there, the circus continues to ensue.
@@bobbys1984 why don’t you go down there and volunteer there. It seems like you’re quite an authority on fire fighting. I’m sure they would appreciate somebody with all of your expertise helping them out. It’s very enjoyable, being a volunteer firefighter being pulled away from your family events on a regular basis, spending countless hours training, being awaken in the middle of the night to go do manual labor that keeps you up all night long. So you can go to your job the next day with no sleep. And you get to do this for no pay.
Omg why did they set the stick? One maaaaybe two lines interior could have tapped out that attic fire. Now you used 10-20x the amount of water to extinguish the fire. What didnt burn flooded.
Wheres the interior push? Exposure protection that was right for the most part? That master stream seemed to effectively push the fire through the whole attic…
Might be a good promo vid for the cement siding people! Look at that plastic siding go!
A question... at the 1:00 mark someone arriving at the scene says in part "it is fully involved". From what I can see this fire is mostly exterior and the fire does not appear to involve the "full" structure. For the firefighters out there, is this considered fully involved?
Think he meant only the D side
NOT at all, no one did a 360, no one checked if the structure was occupied, no one even went to the front door, If PD was there first the door should have been opened if they evacuated.
“Fully involved” is probably the most overused terminology in the fire service, followed closely by “first due”
@@user-tt1ge1yi3q you’re saying PD should have opened the door?
He was implying that the D side was fully involved, not the structure.
First line off should have been through the front door of the fire dwelling to protect the rest of the house and stop it from spreading through the attic space. Second line off attacking exterior fire. Second in engine stretch and deal with exposures. No forcible entry, ground ladders or a search from the first arriving companies… That first line through the front door and up the stairs with two guys with hooks is the difference between making a good stop while it was at the Charlie/Delta corner and burning the roof off the place and destroying the occupants personal belongings in their bedrooms like clothes, shoes, coats, etc. Not to mention things we keep in our bedrooms that are irreplaceable. These fire companies get a thumbs down. They could have done a lot better and saved most of this house.
upon arrival that fire was already through the attic first off was protect exposure and get that shed out you can see it has already burned out the corner of the house would not have done any good to go interior right away and let the exposure go up
@@jays106yeah the corner of the house was heavily involved but what difference does that make?? So any dwelling structure that is heavily involved in one area is now a total write off… fuck outta here. That first arriving apparatus had enough manpower to get two lines in service right off the bat. But instead they wanted to play hit it hard from the yard. Also in reference to the exposure… take the time to look up times til involvement in flames rather than just sustaining damage from radiant heat of basic building materials like siding. You’ll find that your exposure is not your number one concern. Most importantly, you saying that hitting the exposure from the exterior is the first thing that should be done tells me all I need to know about you.
What happened to going interior and making a hole in ceiling putting out attic. I'm sure master stream ruined most items on 2nd floor. Great hustle by first in crew.
Just a note...the man recording is NOT impeding any work of first responders. The cops have NO right to tell him stop recording or to move away. The police need to learn that bystanders can record all day long as long as they are not in danger or impeding. Our news reporters get hassled all the time by cops who think they can remove the press.
Correct! Sometimes cops are uneducated & that’s ok, just no need to scream at me.
Nice job as usual. You should make yourself a Statewide Press Pass..too bad the siding was not asbestos, would have slowed the spread :-). Looks like the power was never killed to the house or block.
From what I understand these are all volunteer departments. It was 2:30 in the morning, these guys are all home sleeping. They have to get up, get to the fire station, put on their gear and get to the scene however far away it is. It appears the first arriving quint may have had an issue getting its pump in gear. Even so most quints only carry at most 500 gallons of water, so waiting for another truck to establish a water supply is time consuming. They did an initial quick knockdown and then protected the exposure. You guys with all of your negative comments have no idea what the hell you're talking about, so until you make the commitment and get certified as a fire fighter and don the 60 plus pounds of gear you have to wear to go in the hot zone of a structure fire don't criticize those that DID. By the way, I am a certified engineer in a small volunteer department so I DO have a clue.
Well said sir
Problem is, volunteer or not these guys lack in training. It's evident in literally every single video. Being a volunteer departments does not excuse you from not knowing how to do your job quickly & efficiently. Some of us with negative comments definitely know what we're talking about, and it shouldn't have taken a ladder pipe (in the wrong setting at that) to put this fire out. A crew or two with an 1 3/4 or two, some hooks, & some good ole fashioned aggressive INTERIOR firefighting should have no problem putting this fire out. Meanwhile they had a ladder pipe up with a crew inside, a guy spraying water on the siding from outside doing absolutely nothing (when he switched from exposure protection to watering the siding of the involved house.) That's not good practice, volunteer or not.
"From what I understand these are all volunteer departments. It was 2:30 in the morning, these guys are all home sleeping." I volunteered a long time then added the career part. The remaining volunteer services need to adapt or die unfortunately. Lightweight type V construction, plus all the polymers used in modern construction and household goods, takes away the luxury of time from the FD and, more importantly the victims (homeowner), that was once afforded by dimensional lumber. Fires burn hotter, the smoke is WAY more toxic, and the structure does not maintain stability as long. Live-in programs are one way our volunteer companies are trying to help ensure there is a crew at the station when minutes matter. You mentioned engines/quints bringing 500 gallons of water. They need to evaluate the response area and know what resources are available/needed. 500 gallons is appropriate when you know the next in engine is right behind you or you have a reliable hydrant system. Quints are appropriate in certain instances but in this particular case it is showing its achilles heel. If the department is resource limited then they shouldnt be showing up in an engine with less than 750-1000 gallons and most definitely not using a quint as their first due piece. The value in a quint is the ability for it to be either a special service piece or a fast attack engine. They SUCK at operating as both at the same time. That problem is magnified when there is a lack of consistent training. Volunteers are still an integral part of the community but many of them fall victim to complacency, failure to adapt, and inability to maintain appropriate (safe) staffing. I'm by no means a volunteer hater being that I was/am one, but VFDs need to realize when their customers call they are expecting a professional quality of service. It is incumbent upon the leadership and crews of volunteer companies to stay trained, adaptable, and responsive to the communities needs which is a monumental task given the shape of our economy and the cost of living. People have to work and have less time to volunteer/train. This is why career departments are having to come in and take over, because it is in the best interest of the safety of the community. I empathize with what you are saying and there are a vast majority of people on here that don't even have half a clue what it takes but there are flaws that the common person could point out in what you are saying that are legitimate issues.
aaaand once again those pesky roofs keep the water from the ladder pipe off the fire ---amazing how they shed the water -almost like they were designed to. You know -its a shame there isnt any way to get some water on the attic fire from down below -if there was only some way to get the water upstairs and maybe some kind of tool --like a hook on a pole to pull some of that ceiling down --- oh well --good job boys --you fought that red devil
2 full minutes from arrival before water on. That's just terribly slow. We have water on with 30 seconds of arrival or we have serious questions to answer. We must have mains supply to the appliance within 2 minutes. May not have made a lot of difference to this fire, but it's still ludicrously slow. The other consideration here is the branch operator. Opening up with such a wide fog directly at the wall will just pull more oxygen into the fire. Crack the branch to ensure pressure and pattern then lay the water across the fire. Serves two purposes in cooling the fire base down as well as providing direct extinguishment. Again, probably wouldn't have made much difference in this case, but using correct technique every time makes it automatic, for when it will make a difference.
That's because the first piece of apparatus doesn't carry water so they had to wait for a water source.
if your first piece doesn't have water, it has no business being sent first due to a structure fire plus, that ladder had a pump and probably a tank. im sure it had at least 3 min worth of water to get going. Of course, Brick FD is the slowest FD on the planet, so they likely couldnt have relayed or gotten a hydrant hookup quick enough anyway.@@Brian13549
@@Brian13549 the first unit was a Quint. It has water and a pump. You can put a lot of fire out with 500 gallons of tank water.
Police officers at fire scenes are more of hindrance than anything else. They do nothing but stand around and get in the way and as it seems odd that they get their first, their cars are usually always the ones that have to be moved because they are in the way!
I swear Jersey has so many fire calls for some reason, I see them all the time.
Great video to bad for the family😮 3:05
Hahahaha... The firemen are like yup the house is F_^ked, now let's start doing our job... lol
I’m still trying to figure out why 2 ladder trucks are in front of the house. I understand you may have to use the aerial but that can be done from a different angle
Position don’t park
Great video. What a great job by the fire fighters. They wasted no time getting this fire out. They showed their dedication to their job...🤗🤗
You sure do love your heroes.
Can’t watch anymore of this fiasco
I always feel bad for the owners of the houses, because everything you own is gone.😢
What is the issue Jersey firefighters, someone has their PASS device going off on almost every fire.
If that aerial can pump water, it needs to be raised and ready
Wonder what the house insurance rates are like if that is their fire protection standards
Where is the ff on the nozzle's helmet?
Nice get!
Got to get water on the fire quicker.
USA firedepartment are so slow, way dont they start working at araivel?
What do firefighters do to help neighbors avoid getting flames to their homes? I would be so worried!
Cute pool in back.
With all the fires in Brick the Fire Dept. should just have a truck driving around the town constantly just waiting for the next fire to start.
Makes me wonder why installing fuel (vinyl) on the outside of houses is a good idea.
You should see the old siding that was used on older homes from the 1930’s-1960’s It was called Insulbrick.. or as us older generation firefighters used to call..”Gasoline Siding” It was siding made of fiberboard and bitumen usually with a crushed stone coating exterior like roofing shingles. It was a very inexpensive construction material back in the day and was visually appealing. It can still be seeing in older cities, towns. Most of which was just covered over with aluminum siding and vinyl siding came after that.
@@concretefireman8009 I started my construction career in the industrial area's of the north east back in the 80's... Cement and steel area's. I remember insulbrick. Most houses were balloon framed. People would use it to cover old wood siding then we would run vertical furring strips over it and install vinyl siding. Sometime we would use Styrofoam sheets before the furring. Nothing but a big pile of fuel but thought nothing of it back then. The problem with vinyl siding today is the houses are being built so close together that when one catches on fire, it melts the siding off 3 other houses.
I lost brain cells watching this video and reading these comments.
As did I.
Sigh. Yep.
Breton Woods, a little history there.
So how did this start?
These cops in your area are the absolute worst.
How is the electric still working
How did the outside of the house catch on fire first?
you can pretty much kiss all your shyt good bye. if the smoke and fire don't get it the water defiantly will. What's the bill for putting out a house fire these days anyway?
$Free.99
Well not really free, but paid for as part of your property taxes and sometimes in a special fire district tax.
You ever watch New Jersey FD just walking around & taking their sweet AS@ time getting out of the stations. THIS IS THE RESULT. You always have some clown NJFF saying we don't rush for safety.
Just curious - volunteer, career or combo departments?
100% volunteers
just wondering WHY they were telling the PHOTOG shooting this GREAT footage that he HAD to leave? im guessing you WERE with ONE of the FC that were on scene? yes?
I can,t believe how long the power was still on to residents.....unless those are solar powered outside lights.
Fuel in an outbuilding has the explosive capacity of 5 sticks of dynamite for every gallon of gasoline. The officer’s concern for your safety was warranted.
Definitely not a ladder pipe kinda fire. Hooks and handlines is all you need. Also, more ground ladders would be nice. Use this as an example of what not to do and get better from it.
Who is the guy videotaping, much respect but how does he get that close to the fire
Why is the power on in the house?
1 fucking hose for 8 firefighters
This is a good fire team. It seems that most videos are showing what NOT to do, whether it be stand around and figure it out, or just slightly inexperienced crew. Hats off to the ladies and gentlemen who do this daily. I could never attempt such a feat. You should be revered and applauded. Great job!
These guys SUCK. Sincerely, they're bad, obviously no emphasis on training.
Es desesperante y triste ver a los bomberos sin guantes y otros preparativos personales antes de bajar del camión.. que poco profesionalismo. Caminan en lugar de correr. No prende la bomba a tiempo. Otros nada más viendo..😢
I realize that the first arriving unit was a quint, however, shouldn’t second arriving rig have been an engine company, I’m not sure of the running rules, or if it was a mutual aid station however, once they got water, they had a good knock on the fire and especially protecting exposure. However, all units operating showed Strong work. everybody goes home.
Brick New Jersey is a volunteer fire dept so you probably get what gets staffed first
Great Video, Fire looks like an accelerant was used.
I mean look around your own home. Our homes are full of plastics and other petroleum products. I saw that the average time for a whole room to go up used to be 30-35 minutes 50-60 years ago, and now its often well under 10 minutes. Used to be natural fabrics and such would take time to catch. Progress!
The average time for a room to go into “flashover” used to be 17 mins 40+ years ago.. that’s the statistics. Now as the commentor mentioned due to all the plastics, synthetics from construction materials to household furnishings and objects that proliferate in 21st century time that time to flashover now is on average UNDER 3 MINUTES!!! Working smoke detectors are your first line of defense. 2nd line of defense is sleep with your bedroom doors closes. That gives you breathable air from the heat, smoke and toxic gases for better survival until help arrives. The difference between a closed bedroom door can be 1,000 degrees! Have an escape plan, practice it.
I need you OUTTA HEYA! In case the house explodes right?
Remember volunteer fire departments are there to stop the fire from burning the town down, they are a not gonna to to risk there lives to save material things. They will however put there lives on the line to save a life. So give a break unless you can do better.
yea hire a bunch of firemen who will go inside and put the fire out. anyone can stand on a lawn
@@thomasprociuk9079 agreed --that 2nd line should have been straight up the stairs -
@dannycostello3129, I would like to say that I disagree with you. I was a volunteer firefighter for 10 years in a 2 square mile town and we put our heart and soul into trying to save people's property. There seems to be a myth among the uneducated public that volunteer firefighters are not as good as paid. Whether you are paid or not, you still have to take the same classes at the same fire academy, at least where I am from. We were also encouraged to continue our education, which a lot of us did. We had an abysmal fire budget, but we made do with what we had.
@@gregggoss2210 Where im from the volunteer academy is 2 days a week 3 hours each for 2 months. The full time academy is monday-friday 8-4 to for 12 weeks. Same certificates but different products.
@@hihfty , my memory isn't what it once was, but I believe when I took Firefighter 1, it was 120 hours of training. The same academy was used by both volunteers and paid. I'm sure things have changed since then. It's been 26 years since I took F.F.1.
Job not complete until some windows get completely smashed. Under control means house completely demolished.
What another LEO that didn't scoop high enough on the fire department test?
They never went inside!! Where was the search?!! Good video of awful firefighting.
Great video
