@@mikeggg1979 our truck is a tiller ladder, and all of the members of our company are trained in every position on the truck. So we rotate positions every tour and sometimes even every shift depending on if one of us is out sick/vacation/medic unit detail etc.

Craig miss ya pal

🤣😂🤦🏻‍♂️

What’s up Norm!!

2300 N Beechwood St

@ while at work yesterday I watch a dwelling fire at fox street and Marston street 3300 block of marston

@@MatthewMaiese we were on that one as well

@ I was doing construction work at ShopRite and drove down

@@stephenjake2021 Yea I love the traditional fire axe. Its my favorite to bring to the roof. Some of the flat roofs in our city are 4-5 inches thick, so the pick is great for pulling up roofing material after you cut a hole. I guess some of the newer styles of ax will probably work if you have newer construction dwellings or pitched/peaked roofs, but most of Philly is comprised of old rowhomes. I grab the flathead axe and marry it with the halligan for forcible entry though, the flathead gives you a striking tool combined with a blade that you can use to chop through a door if needed and also doubles as a wedge to gap the door.

@@jesseosada4690 i usually carry the irons at my job, but ive always liked the pickhead. And some guys can do the "baseball swing" method for wood framed doors like nobodys business haha

@@rgc3900The first due engine tries to get in front of the building if possible for quicker deployment of a preconnected attack line, then the driver will charge the line and stretch back to a hydrant for supplemental water supply. This gives them 500 gallons for a quick knock down until a hydrant is obtained. If the street is too narrow, the driver will get as close as possible and try to get the hosebed facing the fire. Then they carry the bag(usually 3 or 4 lengths of 1& 3/4" attack line) and pull 3" hosline near the front of the dwelling and connect out front. The 2nd due engine does the same but also helps the first due engine establish a supplemental water supply either by helping them connect to a hydrant or they will give them water through their engine if they are already hooked up to a hydrant. 2nd due engine attack line is usually stretched to the rear of the dwelling but they may go to the front depending on the nature and conditions of the job or if ordered by the chief.

@@jesseosada4690 Gotcha! Preciate the explanation.

@@ExtraFreakyBobTv the test today is vastly different from when I took it 20 years ago. We had a study book and all the questions were in the book with some added map/navigation questions. Today half of the test is personality questions, not really sure what they are looking for or how to answer those. I know that if you become an EMT or if you are bilingual it will increase your chances of getting hired, but you still need to pass the fire test.

@@jesseosada4690 I have my FF1/2, NREMT and a slew of other FF certs. I know my FF certs don’t get points added on but I didn’t know EMT helps. Thank for the info.

@@jasperkramer5693 If you study fire behavior or fire dynamics, it will show how it is beneficial. From experience we know from trying to enter a room that is on fire and opening the tip (nozzle) and flowing water into an unventilated room, you create steam and you disrupt the thermal layer in the room. If there is nowhere else for this heat and steam to go then it pushes back onto the firefighters who are trying to extinguish the fire. This causes steam burns and could possibly push the fire over their heads and out into the hallway. We do our best to coordinate our ventilation and break windows as the engine company is opening the tip so that the steam and intense heat goes out the windows instead of back onto the firefighters. The fire will burn hotter for a few seconds as oxygen enters the room but will go out much faster and not push back on the engine company as water is applied. In the case of an exterior (defensive) attack, taking out the windows allows water to be flowed inside to try to knock down the fire.

Philly = Aggressive interior attack. Jasper, we won't ventilate until water is in place. Double house, no problems the engine and ladder Stationed together. Single house is only an engine. We waited for a ladder so we got inventive. Sometimes the driver would throw up the 24' extension ladder. Carried D cell batteries to break windows. Or most often, tipman and officer move to fire, backup man vents with the Halligan bar. Engine. 51, 72, 47 and L12.

You're embarrassing yourself

@@jeffrosano8850 Affirmative! Lol

@@jesseosada4690 holy crap! Your videos are awesome. My Dad was pfd for 22 years and retired in 97. He passed away in March and lately I've been looking up RUclips videos of pfd stuff. I love your videos. I'm going to tell my mom about your channel. Absolutely awesome. Stay safe, brother!

@@jeffrosano8850 thanks man I appreciate it. Stay safe!

I believe it closed back in 2003

We have 4 FF's and an officer on the truck. Yea usually the ladder officer will take a quick look at the rear of the building and give a report to the chief, they help pull hoseline and help with the primary and secondary searches.

what does that mean lol? it is a city property

Yes most of our dwellings are rowhomes with flat roofs built over 100 years ago. They have multiple layers of roofing material overtop wood planks so when the fire spreads through the walls and ceilings it is often inaccessible through the interior even when the plaster & lathe or drywall ceilings are pulled. So we look for signs of direct fire impingement and cut back the roof there to ensure there is nothing smoldering inside that would rekindle the fire.

Depending on the size/quantity of fire, the commanding officer will place certain companies 'in service', while other arriving companies stand by just in case. So for a full box dispatch they send 4 engines, 2 ladders and 2 battalion chiefs. Upon arrival, companies will be placed in service as needed. Usually the first in (first due) engine, and the first in ladder will go in service for small fires or investigations, or it could be 2 engines, 2 ladders, 2 chiefs or even more for bigger fires. So an engine that's in service will stretch attack hoseline, connect to a hydrant, spray water, etc. A ladder that is in service will search for victims, force entry, ladder the building, ventilate and overhaul. Other companies not in service are on standby

The chief pulled everyone out because of the condition of the building and the amount of fire. It was a vacant building with holes in the floor and heavily damaged stairs. Heavy fire was showing from the 2nd floor front and also in the rear

@@jesseosada4690 I see the fire, but that makes more sense now knowing the interior structural conditions. Gotcha

The camera is attached to my helmet. I need to take it off in order to put my SCBA mask on just before I enter an IDLH environment.

I'm positive the camera is on his helmet which he had to remove to put his SCBA mask on before he went in to do his primary search

Onyx 4k Helmet Camera? This one? On Amazon when I put the name you gave, that pops up.

@@mathenoel1306 I believe that is the newer version of the one that I have
