Great coverage from start to finish JJ. Volunteer firemen did a great job. I saw a security camera on the building to the right, should obtain some good info on this fire and explosion.
This is not what I pictured when I heard Long Island, NY. I understand it sounds almost stereotypical to hear "New York" and think you're going to see FDNY units on the scene instead. This is an awesome new experience and side of NY I've never seen.
@@LCERRP Yeah... Merrick has three companies, Empire, Friendship, and Merrick hook and ladder. They needed more than one company in case one of them could not cross the tracks. North Merrick always had one big house with all of the squads there. I was from North Merrick.
Most Long Island departments have a handful of FDNY guys in them so a lot of techniques used by the FDNY are used on the island. The island is like the FDNYs little brother when it comes to aggressive firefighting.

I wonder what the idea was behind this attack, maybe the it was to dangerous to walk on the second floor!
they were on the second floor before the video started not really sure why they used the bucket instead of a hose
WELL, I THINK THEY WANTED TO KNOCK DOWN SOME OF THE INTERIOR COMPONENTS LEO! THANKS SO MUCH.....
I THINK HE MEANT THE TOWER LADDER OPERATION PART.....;o)
WELL, I THINK THEY WANTED TO KNOCK DOWN SOME OF THE INTERIOR COMPONENTS .....
Good to see that they learned from the FDNY on how to utilize that bucket.
Most Long Island departments have a handful of FDNY guys in them so a lot of techniques used by the FDNY are used on the island. The island is like the FDNYs little brother when it comes to aggressive firefighting.
