I can honestly say that's the first time I've ever seen apparatus doors open up like that before... Definitely gives the apparatus the most amount of clearance, but seems slower than the bi-fold/tri-fold doors as well as traditional garage doors...
With that crew, speed was certainly not a concern. I move with more purpose checking the mailbox.
@idahomike from the doors opening to the first engine out was about 90 seconds... I'm not sure how long it was after tones, but I'll assume probably 30 seconds, which all together isn't a terrible response time...
@@desertr4062 agree. The Engine took 1:14 to start rolling. My LT would have my ass as the chauffer. Geez!
They were probably told there was no need for speed. There's no fire, there's no life in danger.
to all firefighters worldwide thank u for all u do i know what it's like to have 1 in a family-to have my fathers father as a chief
Great catch! HR3 going wrong way down the freeway offramp was so cool!
Yes it was! Thanks
@@CobraEmergency I love the tow truck fire truck they have. I think it is super cool that they have those. You don't see too many of those going out every day.
@@CobraEmergency people keep being mean to me and what should I do
I have never seen a fire department having their own rotator that's awesome
@@stevenbelsky1652 Miami-Dade does as well
I think that's cool they even have their own heavy wrecker
LAcoFD has their own rotator(65 ton) as well” HR103”, part of their USAR Taskforce response!
Is it me, or do they take a long time to get the trucks out of the door.
Slow is smooth, smooth is fast.
Watching a lot of these emergency response videos, there is definitely a difference in how the crews around the work respond. Some react like it was a matter of life and death, and others… well not so much. That being said there is definitely also a difference in how car drivers react to emergency vehicles flashing their lights and blowing their horns….
They’re taking their sweet ass time
It takes them 85 seconds to get out the door, it’s supposed to be
@@Dr_Duck69 that was anything but fast my department our trucks are out the door in under 30 seconds from tone drop
Wow! Epic rescue catch
That was cool how those doors opened and I’ve never seen a Fire Department with thier own tow truck
The LAFD has had a tow truck type vehicle of varying sizes since the early 50"s, LA County Fire also has a Heavy Rescue, which is part of their USAR company.
Miami - Dade also has one. They aren't really tow trucks but heavy rescues
I imagine this is used to lift something off of someone if they are pinned/trapped etc... It doesnt make much sense to perform an actual tow with this and it's not really the FD's job to do so.
Forget the stereotype that firefighters run like crazy from their dorms to respond to the incident. Sometimes it takes minutes for the trucks to leave
Nice wrecker trucks I like that... Keep up good work!!
Epic appliance, nice video
Je suis toujours autant impressionné quand je vois les engins comme l'échelle avec conduite en cabine externe .... Ça doit être sportif , au départ ...
Here comes the ambulance 🚑 and fire trucks 🚒 yay
Prayers for driver hope he made it
The FDNY would kill for bays with clearance like that.
Right? This new station was finished recently but designed in the same style as the 1930s station it replaced. Both were built in the LA Valley, which, back in the 30s, was miles of open land to build on. New York City, on the other hand, was already extremely dense in the 1930s. And back then rigs were smaller!
Ahh, but the city of New York has a concept of space usage and management. California, not so much.
Really nice footage.
Nice one!👍🏻
Is the Rotator the one that replaced the one Jamie Davis has in Hope B.C?
@TrophyNZ1 yes it is. LAFD got this brand new in 2016. The wrecker Jamie purchased is a 1995 PETERBILT.
As a past Firefighter for over 20 years . Never seen fire house door open like that and never seen anyone move as slow as they were filmed getting a call looked like no real sense of emergency. Look when we’d get a call nobody ran but walked much more quickly to get the apparatus out. The way it worked at my house was if it was structure fire or auto accident Engine lead out if it was a heart attack medical emergent ambulance lead out engine followed . Not trying to to bash this or anyone in that house . It just looked like they knew they were being filmed ???? Happy new year and stay safe ❤😊
As being paid fire man, and being stationed in quarters, I feel it takes them entirely too long to leave th station.
NICE!!
Good Day Cobra 🥂🐍
Awesome collection of clips - you were in the perfect spot to get that wrecker! Were you able to spot yourself in the news helicopter footage afterwards?
Thank you! Once I heard where they would be entering off of, I knew where to go for Heavy Rescue 3!
I haven't even thought of looking yet! That would be cool.
Wow they are quick to respond!
Sarcasm 😂😂
This what replaced the one jamie Davies bought
Didn’t that one catch fire
I was wondering if this was the one jamie bought
Jamie bought heavy rescue 56. That’s a 40 ton rotator. This one is a 50. Jamie Davis had a western star rotator a while back aswell. Don’t quote me on it but i want to say that one was a 65 ton.
@@ryandynneson4547the one Jamie Davis has now heavy rescue 56. Was in a pretty bad crash and sustained a lot of body damage. Last I checked it’s still in the shop it’s been over a year it’s been there
@@ryandynneson4547 the MACK caught on fire.
Awesome
4:59 Los Angeles Fire Heavy Rescue truck
Wow. They have a rotator recovery unit.
What’s the van nuys mean on the engine doors of 39?
It's the neighborhood where the station is located
Rescue what? There was no one inside when the fire trucks got there.
they sure don’t hurry
i was saying to myself thats a cool fire tow truck then it switched to the wreck and i didnt even finish my sentance to myself! i said "thats a cool fire to- EEEWWWW
Dope
DAMM!!!!I did not know dump trucks could 4 wheel off road or hummmm, the bridge??
I think it’s funny how they have a perfectly good q siren but use the electronic wail
Willing to bet that the idiot ran them off the road just calmly went about their day, like nothing happened
Ok Question were they first due? Cause that response time was slow. Also I believe Miami-Dade is the only other department in the states to have their own tow trucks in case anyone was wondering.
Is he ok
Just curious, why did it take the truck and the second engine so much longer to get out of the station than the first engine? There was a delay of a full 90 seconds or more after E39 pulled out until the other two rigs turned a wheel.
Probably because the call we upgraded once more details came in to the 911 center. Many times citizen callers cannot and donot provide enough information
Those guys were in NO hurry. Look how slow they just walk around and put their gear on.
@@trvman1 American firefighters all seem to be the same. I don’t know why they bother to fit sirens and lights on fire engines when they just still wander round prior to turning out. As a retired uk fire officer they would never have got away with it.
@@johnswain1092Season’s Greetings From across the puddle in New York! I hope you and yours had a Merry Christmas I wish you and yours a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year with many more to come!
Am a firefighter we are all dispatched separately sometime depending on information given
Jamie Davis gonna get this one too lol
Omg dude how did the driver get the dump truck like that
TOP⚡️⚡️💪💪💪
No hurry boys…
I had no idea The LAFD had a big rig wrecker tow truck
@patscherf yes, the LAFD has had this type of unit in service since 1948. Google has several has pictures of past units. If you get a chance take a look. These were first called a Heavy Utility and now a Heavy Rescue.
❤Jesus te ama ❤
❤feliz 2024❤
How many firefighters have towing/wrecker skills? That's defintely a unique skill set.
Having a wrecker as part of your fire department is totally foreign to me. If we need one, we call tow truck if we need a bigger one, we call a bigger tow truck they respond all the time. And then Missouri they can respond with lights and siren. If it’s what they call a code 3 Response.
@@jimdevilbiss9125 the firefighters that operate this are trained. The dept wouldn't let untrained people operate this type of equipment. The LAFD has had a heavy wrecker in service since 1948! If you get a chance go to google and search LAFD Heavy Utility or now Heavy Rescue, The dept had a MACK, it was painted white over red. CROWN was another Heavy Utility and it was painted yellow and later red over white. CROWN manufactured firetrucks and school buses. Their factory was located here in Los Angeles. Several pictures of these units are on google. This is the third rotator the LAFD has owned.
As someone else already mentioned I think the doors on the Fire House are great! They appear to be a style of space saver style door’s? My eyes are not as sharp as they used to be, do the doors slide into a place in the wall which makes them virtually invisible to these look really stylish too! Is this a paid of Volunteer Department I’m going to say this is definitely a paid department a few small differences I recognized that Volunteer Department’s do and you almost never see career Firefighters do. Let me know what you think I saw that makes me think with almost 100% certainty this is a paid Fire Department?
The doors have several layers that retract over themselves and to one side, sort of like the way an aerial retracts.
Yes, it's a paid Fire Department. The City of Los Angeles, California Fire Department is one of the largest and busiest in the USA. It's a full time career.
Thanks for watching!
Funny how things change: I remember fast push outs
That's a neat feature at the fire station with those clip-on hoses attached to the exhaust pipes that come off as the fire engine moves out. Avoids exposing the firemen to exhaust fumes and obviates the need to unhook the hose manually, wasting time in an emergency.
Did that police helicopter have COMINT (communications intelligence) equipment for eavesdropping on phone calls? That white "tub" under the fuselage is not a standard fixture for the Aérospatiale AS 350 and must be some special mission equipment.
Firefighters already have a massive cancer risk, so anything that can be done to lower their exposure to cancer-causing agents like exhaust is a good thing.
As for the helicopter, that wasn’t an LAPD unit, but a news helicopter from KCBS/KCAL. The enclosure on the bottom houses UHF/microwave antennas transmitting footage and talkback comms to the newsroom.
I've never seen a news helicopter with a NightSun before
They all have them. Using them is another story.
News helicopters in L.A. are covering “Hollywood”, that means they have the funds to add all the bells & whistles to their helos!!
I agree. If it was their family involved, they'd be hauling ass!
100% true
5 mins of Fire engines before we even get to the Truck in a 7 min video..
Aahh...California. The only place besides NYC where lights and sirens mean nothing to anyone. At least places like Manhattan have the excuse of gridlock traffic.
If you think those are the only places that people don't yield, I've got some shocking revelations for you.
Should hire turtles they move faster
Not much hurry
You can see the difference between a payed and a volunteer fire fighter. Look at how long those guys take to get in the truck and out of the base😮😮😮. Thanks for the video thou.
That's a cliff? More like an overpass where the bridge deck meets mother earth.
Any rate thank you to the responders.
They didn't disconnect the exhaust hose.
Am I the only one who didn’t see a steady burn light on that wrecker? Seems odd by California standards.
🚒🚑🏥👨🚒👍
Their rotator shows up then they call Pepe's to actually do the recovery.....
They will need two rotators and a 3rd Heavy Tow to get that thing outta there
Don’t forget that since the Trucks have Air Brakes, the pressure has to build up before the TRUCK CAN MOVE. 0:15
Since when does a wrecked dump truck require a Tiller? Seems expensive to me
@MysticRivers2 extra man power!
@@mgp870 Fair enough
Why does lafd have their own heavy
Not it's not you. They are slower than molasses
And the 4 wheeler who caused it gets away scot free again.
Wouldn't it be more cost efficient to give the tow companies lights, sirens and their drivers driving training? That way a fire fighter, fights fires and a tow guy, tows. We do this in The Netherlands now with road management vehicles. To remove debris from the road, to get to an accident to give CPR when a driver has cardiac arrest. Or when a car is in a bad spot because of breakdown. Works like a dream. Everybody keeps to their profession, with their experience, less traffic jams, people have better surviving chances.
What on earth is the fire department doing with a €750k tow truck that is only used once a month? Now; that's a way of burning tax payers money easily.
Call Pepe's Towing
Take your time....gesh
They definitely don't rush to anything .they get a paycheck and most of them that's all they care about. And before you call me names my two older sons are firefighters one was at NYCFD the other at PNSY
First
putting on turnout pants over station pants...
@Shmopboy42 Yeah like every career FF does…
Every firefighter period does. That’s how they’re measured for fit. Everything with exception of footwear stays on.
Ive seen the guys at les schwab tire move faster
Jesus saves
Really a tower..waste of resources
@nobleff51775 the Los Angles City Fire Dept has had this type of unit in service since 1948. If you go to Google and search LAFD Heavy Utility or Heavy Rescue you can see photos from the past. People that don't live here are unaware. A tower waste of resources is the our nations Pentagon. The geniuses FAILED their SIXTH consecutive audit! That should concern every American! I do support our military. I don't work for the city.
Great video as always! Love the trucks! Only thing they lack is a small American flag waving in the wind on the back. Most SoCal departments have them. Wonder why this department does not.
Thank you!
I've seen a few with the flag in the grill. Actually, the USAR truck featured in this video has one but you can't see it behind the freeway wall. But yeah, I don't see LAFD waving them behind all that much if at all. I need to go looking now lol
I went Googling and couldn't find any. I could have sworn I had seen a photo of an LAFD rig flying the flag en route to a call. But it could have been one of the many other LA area departments.
Traditionally LAFD only flies flags during parades or if it is painted on the grill. LACoFD have flags on quite a few rigs. Source, I've lived in LA for over 20yrs.
@ThatsMrAwesomesauce Right! It could have been a photo of a county rig I've seen, or an LAFD parade. Thanks.
