    Thanks for the video. I'm a retired firefighter and I have been to Gatlinburg. I've fought fires as big as this, and I know what it takes. Considering how advanced it was when the call came in, I expected worse. Glad that you were able to contain it. Gatlinburg is a beautiful place and I hope to visit again. This scar will heal quickly, but it's such a tragic loss.

    As a firefighter I appreciate when people STAY AWAY! Thank you! Vehicles especially get in the way and make our job harder and less safe. Pedestrians aren't nearly as much as a problem as long as they are further back than all of our equipment. Great video too.

    • @KenKen-ui4ny
      @KenKen-ui4ny 2 года назад

      Most departments usually detour traffic around structure fire scenes, using side roads that link back to the main road. So there really no way you can drive so close to it, without getting into possible legal trouble with the law. As for on foot bystanders, i guess the rule of look but keep your distance applies. like you mentioned thay are not as much of a problem, but they are probably discourage from getting too close in for the sake of safety. They just don't want people getting hurt, burnt, or run over by a fire truck.

    Surprised they are cleaning it up before any investigations or the insurance companies out taking a look. In my neck of the woods that could take several months.

    That building in the back is still on fire. Just happy nobody got hurt but the weird thing is how did it jump from one building to the one that's still on fire looked like there was a good amount of distance between these two buildings. Just hoping nobody set these places on fire for the insurance money. What would have made this more dangerous is if that huge wood pile caught on fire as well. I just watched a video on WATE 6 they said they found a body inside one of the buildings that was destroyed but not identifying that individual as of yet.
