HOW DOES A FIRE LIKE THIS BECOME SO MASSIVE? When a fire starts, it can quickly grow. In a closed area the heat builds up rapidly, and flamable materials spontaneously combust into flame. The heat continues rising, causing more material to ignite, thus rising the temperature quicker and hotter.
This fire was huge I live about 30 miles from Indy and could easily see the cloud of smoke from my house, a friend who lives another 20 miles south from me said he could see it.
that's true! I work in Whitestown Ind at a warehouse. My supervisor stopped at the Loves located at I-65 north and Brownsburg exit. He snapped a photo of that smoke plume. I drive 18 miles to work and walmart facility is at least another 16 miles further down the road.(going south from where I work)
@@TraciSoloGrayWitch Tell that to the nurses and doctors, health-care workers and anyone employed thru a company with a Federal military contract.(my son will do for starters.) "Companies with 100 or more employees will no longer be required to have employees get vaccinated --BUT they can still mandate it on their own terms" AND "Any company can require workers to get vaccinated, even if it's not a federal mandate".
@@TraciSoloGrayWitch Companies? A city/town fire department is a company? You think I should depend on a witch with a broom and a bucket of water if my home catches fire? WHAT world do you fly around in?
They couldn’t even pull the trucks. Ridiculous waste of everything. They have sprinkler systems and insurance inspections and management systems and SOPs and the whole thing burns to the ground?? The fire department couldn’t do diddly. WTF??!!!
Pulling the trailers away would have opened up more sources of fuel for the fire. Like a barbecue grill, a fire in a building like this will be hungry for fresh air and try to pull it in through any low entry point that it can.
@@2532robh1 - plus there’s only a few dedicated shunters in the yard that move trailers. Wouldn’t have had much time to move trailers out of all those doors. These facilities have hundreds of docks.
I would suggest searching "Plainfield Indiana Walmart Distribution Center fire" and see what the firefighters were up against. Being as how I'm "just down the road" from this monstrosity of a blaze ( classified as a 5- alarm) I didn't really take to kindly to your remark of: "The fire department couldn’t do diddly? WTF". I suggest YOU become a firefighter and show these men and women "how it's done". There were NO trucks attached to the trailers sitting in the loading dock doors. How were they to remove them? Twinkle their nose like Samantha of "Bewitched" ? If you do some research, you could learn a little more about the situation. "Nearly every fire department in central Indiana responded to a massive Walmart warehouse blaze in Plainfield, Ind. (WISH) Anderson said that after attempting to put out the fire, it grew so large that firefighters decided to take a “defensive” stance." meaning they were battling the fire from outside the facility.
What trucks needed to be pulled? All I seen were trailers. And besides, do you know how long it takes to hook to a trailer, pull it out of there, set it down, unhook, and go get the next one takes? No? Didn't think so. Why would YOU risk people's lives over material things?
Now target will make more sales if they can keep up. Was the charger room the source of the fire and if so, are there automatic electric fire suppressors? Sand or dry chemical.... Can't use water in sufficient quantities. It takes a lake.
Guys as we can see, all of the things that have been happening the last couple of years show this world “ship” is sinking. The “normal” we’ve known is never coming back, there is only better or worse. The better is giving your life to our Creator, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and He will keep you from the hour of temptation that is soon to come which leads to the “worse.” Things are going to get so terribly bad you won’t want to be here. Please don’t put your faith in man but in Christ alone! Don’t hesitate, don’t wait.. do this as soon as possible!

10 bucks says lithium ion battery and insufficient fire protocol for dealing with it. water on a battery fire doesn't work.
