    Lightning strike to the electrical service at our old ambulance base traveled down the shoreline and caught one of our ambulances on fire. That rig was destroyed, the second ambulance was damaged but serviceable as was a rescue truck. That was Dansville, NY.,Both ambulances were replaced within weeks.

      UnkleJustin how did the lighting hit the rigs??

    • @flyaround5953
      @flyaround5953 7 лет назад +1

      UnkleJustin some units are attached to the stations power to keep the batteries charged in all the medical equipment inside. So if the building is hit by lightning the current could have set some of the electrical equipment on fire.

    Not to make a joke about it, but at least the fire department didn't have to go far to fight a fire. Saved mileage on the trucks as well.

    I know this is an old video but just came across.Even though it was apparently contained I think I would have pulled the engine company with attack lines pulled completely out of the fire stall. Ambulance fires are extremely dangerous and go go south very quickly. Glad contained to ambulance but my question too is why didn't fire station have sprinker system?

    A huge storm struck the nearest station to the local fair, while the demolition derby was going on, and there was a chance of a possible electrical fire (FF at the station reported smelling something burning). Fastest I've ever seen every single truck on scene of the derby take off...

    I can speak from experience that an ambulance (in our case) can catch on fire hours - HOURS after it has been shut down. We had a 2004 braun van chasis with a box. Crew got off of work at 2200hrs. shut the truck off. At about 4am an oncoming crew member pulled into the parking lot and noticed copious amts of smoke coming from the cab of the truck. There was a short in the fuse box for the mod.... total loss.

      Actually no not so much irony it's not very uncommon to see fire department's catching on fire most of the fire departments in the U.S. and around the world are 50-100 years old. Old buildings mean electrical problems and electrical problems can lead to fires in this case it isn't the station thats on fire it's one of the squads (or what civilians call ambulances) that's on fire
