    The gas works damaged the main electrical supply cable causing a short circuit, the buzzing noise you can hear is the electric arcing which causes the initial fire, that then spread to the plastic bollards and the rest as they say is history !

    Ok. Am I crazy. I can hear electrical short circuiting and arching going on. Why would the fire services fight what sounds and looks from the location an electrical fire with water from a hose and create a bigger danger with a live current either traveling to the hose or the water on in the ground ? I tight some other non conducive medium would be used but they just jumped out with no assessment and basically rolled out the hose?

    I think it’s pretty sad and pathetic to compare and argue about the UK firefighters and the US Firefighters.
    Both are professional and put their lives on the line in the duty they carry out and honour!
    I bet 99% of people commenting on videos like these criticising aren’t even part of a Fire service. If you think you can do a better job.. go apply boots on tank on get your resi on and CRACK ON!

      The part that gets old is the fact that a video of a UK fire would prompt some folks to take it as an opportunity to badmouth the US fire service. I don't get that.
      If a firefighter wants to critique a video of a particular fire operation that occurred in the USA, by all means go for it. That way we can debate the merits of the particular tactics & procedures employed. But what is the point of some civilian initiating a pissing contest?

      Longer than that. Have to walk around and stretch a bit after the long, hot, cramped ride over from the station. Then, finish suiting up in their protective gear. Then start pulling out hoses, hook to hydrants, hook up spray nozzles, warm up the pump and get it all primed, then wait for the word from their supervisor to go.

The 2 FF's that were using the hose were originally just deploying the hose but got tired of waiting for the FF's with the air packs(the job to apply water/foam/chemical on the fire was the 2 with air packs). Anyway, water on electrical?? OK!!

      The fuses comes when you have a shortcut, but really slowly in this case of a major supply line it normally comes only when it heads up the fuse. And the other problem could be that you have a incoming supply from two sides, so it needs time to shutdown.

    • @azul8811
      @azul8811 Год назад

      I know that the American firefighters would have arrived sooner, with more resources, and would examine the basements of the surrounding properties for possible fire and/or smoke extension via the underground electrical conduit that feed into those basements. They would also check the electrical panels, measure the PPM of Carbon Monoxide throughout the buildings. If the levels were elevated they would provide ventilation and evacuate occupants.
      Based on the presence of those yellow barriers, it appears that some electrical work had been ongoing in the street, so they would also check nearby electrical utility holes for indications of possible problems in order to determine the perimeter of involvement. They would also summon the electrical utility to the scene to remove power in the hole.

    while most idiots would go as close as possible and film with their mobile, brits simply start to help with traffic regulation and evacuation in such a situation.
    and i bet they also were polite and humorous in their communication ^^
    even from a german viewpoint it is just impressive how brits (most of the time) react to approaching emergency vehicles.
    special prize for the guy in the red car.

      do you think they are on scene after a minute? I don't know when they called the FD, but just think about it: someone calls the emergency phone number, then the conversation with the dispatch takes some time; Then they set off the alarm, the crews have to get to the trucks, put their gear on and after that they start driving to the scene; 5 Minutes is a short time for all that

      The first fire fighter I think was aiming to cool down the surrounding areas and not actually fighting the fire, the second firefighter started attacking the flames directly once it was confirmed that power was off, you can see even the traffic lights were disconnected.

      @@josephrobichaud5198 I disagree, There is no persons reported, yes there is potentially life threatening but it is not time critical.
      Fire crews are not going to risk themselves and others without trying to get an idea what they're getting into.
      If they injure themselves or make the situation worse, they can't help anyone. I'm sure they want to go home just as much as the next common joe at the end of the day.

    Contrary to popular opinion high voltage electricity does not conduct through high pressure water jet
    I know as a fire officer of 30 years all officer s attending Moreton in Marsh fire residential college carry out practical drills with 55 k voltage cables in a fire
    scenario to demonstrate even Russian fire officer s paid to attend the college
    In fact pure water is a poor conductor of electricity it is the microscopic particles of detritus in the water that allows it to be such a good conductor of electricity
