- On scene video of a dwelling fire in the Snowball Gate section of Levittown.
Firefighters were dispatched to Silverbell Rd shortly after midnight early Friday morning due to receiving multiple calls reporting the front of a house on fire. Middletown Police arrived first on location and confirmed those reports. William Penn Deputy 77 arrived on the scene and established command.
Penndel Tower 8 first in and went in service pulling an attack line to the front door. Wm Penn Engine 77 dropped in from the hydrant at Spinythorn Rd to the scene and crews pulled a line off E77 to assist T8s crew. Newport Squirt 44 picked up E77's hydrant and crews pulled a third line to the rear of the structure in a fight to contain fire to the first floor.
With one half of the structure being at a total loss Tower 8 went in service with aerial master stream operations knocking bulk of the visible fire through a collapsed roof. Crews continued to fight
exposures on the interior of what remained of the residence. Newportville, Levittown #2 and Langhorne-Middletown Fire Companies assisted on the scene with extinguishment and extensive overhaulas well as Penndel-Middletown EMS on standby.
The fire was placed under control in about 40 minutes and companies remained on the fireground for up to two hours. All occupants; three residents and a dog were accounted for with no injuries. The cause is under investigation by the Middletown Twp Fire Marshal.

I don't think I'll be calling Wayman for any fire protection any time soon...
I don't think I have ever seen a ladder truck be put into action that quick before. Excellent work!
This department is on the ball. 1st engine in gets water on the fire,2nd engine brings in the water supply.damn fine job...
Ironic -- Fire Protection truck parked in driveway.
It sure isn't Los Angeles; they would have chainsawed thirteen holes in the roof before any water flowed.
I cannot believe that ladder placement at that upper window. Window was poorly installed as easily as it came off the house.
Note the irony on the van.
Excellent video brother
Thanks man
@@rrobertsnot5150 Please don't Delete your old Videos because I love them so much please keep them 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I guess they didn’t have Wayman Fire Protection
Why so long for the ladder to start using water? Also the deck gun would have been great use at first.
Awesome job by all great video
This video has it all: fire protection van in driveway and Fat Pete .
The way these houses are built today is truly a shame!!! They go up so quick.
One big issue is open floor plans. In the past, rooms were separated with doors, and if the doors are closed, the fire spread is much slower. (Also, solid wood doors better than hollow core fiberglass doors.)
In an open floor plan, the heat can quickly spread throughout the house.
Those homes in levittown were built in the late 50s
@@donaldpickford6887but most are all remodeled now. & like someone said. A lot of them knock down walls and open them up. Which isn’t good for fire situations.
I laughed when I saw the fire protection truck in the driveway. I don't think I would hire them anytime soon!
Nice video brother
Does the aerial ladder have water capabilities? Instead of venting it should be used to cut off Fire.
Yes about 10 minutes into the video they pumped water up the aerial to fight the fire from above
Why not try to save the main part of the house! What the hell is everyone pouring water on the part that is already gone? The main part of the home should have been entered and cut the fire off from there! I’m a retired fire fighter 😮 41 years of service this is a disgrace! No leadership and no training.😢 very sad.and the guy whom lives in the home dose fire protection 😮
"Why not try to save the main part of the house!"
-They clearly did!
"What the hell is everyone pouring water on the part that is already gone?"
-Its called firefighting
"The main part of the home should have been entered and cut the fire off from there!"
-It was!
"I’m a retired fire fighter 41 years of service"
-Your words prove you've never worked a fire in your life
"this is a disgrace!"
-Yes... yes you are
@@virgilhilts3924 You are like children playing with a hose. If I was the home owner I would be asking for some answers! You can defend yourself but the training is out the door! Poor excuse of firefighting 😳
@@lyndseymarieburke1834
I see you are still proving that you've never worked a fire in your life 🤣
@@virgilhilts3924 I see that you must be one of the children playing fireman! 😂
@@lyndseymarieburke1834
Says the one claiming 41 years of service yet has clearly *never* worked a fire 🤣
They need some Flexseal on that hose.
That's ashame
Amazed that they made entry into an active collapse zone during operations. I wonder if a Safety Chief was on scene? I doubt that would have been permitted by FDNY or other large departments with paid staff.
Ron, the structure was difficult to discern because of smoke and lighting. One end was obviously a garage, but I am wondering if there was a living area to its immediate right (as viewed from the street), and was it an 'L' shaped building attached or was that an adjacent structure unattached? Great video work.
Thanks for your comment and that's all one house. It's the Levittown club style house has that L shape. Looks like where the double door is at top of the driveway was a garage converted to a living space.
Collapse zone? What are you talking about?!!
@@DavidHorsnall fire managers sometimes establish a collapse zone around a building that has or is showing the possibility of collapse; e.g., FDNY regularly establishes sidewalks as collapse zones. An external collapse threat is as dangerous as an internal collapse.
Notice the van in the driveway, Fire protection??
Alot of firemen walking around doing nothing very alarming!!
As much money as people spend on their homes they ought to look at materials they can use to slow or hinder the spread of a fire especially if they are building one from the ground up. I am currently having a house built and I am putting out ALOT of extra money in different materials to provide my family a safe home. I am using fire rated plywood, fire rated drywall & mud, Rokwool insulation, and stuff from Pink Wood out of Canada. No house is fireproof but my house when it is finished will not go up like these houses I have watched videos of.
Damn! Some of you armchair chiefs are brutal.
Is this bristol Township
Middletown Twp

Babylon
No, this is PA not NY
WOW, this operation is an embarrassment to the Fire Service. I'll be showing this to everyone at my Station as an example of WHAT NOT TO DO!!! Poor placement of apparatus, poor choice in attack lines, poor choice of ladder usage. Mistakes in ventilation, I see no accountability, no command structure, just a bunch "knife and forkers" who pretend to be Firefighters. You clowns burned this house down! The entire department (and the surrounding mutual aid depts) needs to be retrained!
🌊🔥🌊🇺🇸
I totally agree with you. They are a bunch of clowns.
Big fire big lines and get rid of those nozzles. To many men standing around. Chiefs shouldn’t be pulling ceilings and venting. Gotta learn.
Seems like those areas up there everyone is a Chief
What a joke I thought there was some help when you took that Ariel out of the bed but when you’re wasting time breaking windows instead of hitting it with a master stream well y’all should’ve stayed home
I don't think they had water supply to the tower ladder until about 8 1/2 minutes into the video.
Where is the water?
In the fire hose
