I'm a brick and block Mason by trade. You have split face block here trying to break through. Always remember every 4 feet and on each side of the windows and doors are solid with concrete and rebar. And avoid the two bottom courses. Because that's where all the mortar Falls when you are laying the block that's the toughest part. But you're lucky it's only 4 inch block because you don't feel 4-inch block with concrete and rebar
Perhaps this is the "and rescue" part of "fire and rescue". A building made with blocks like that is unlikely to have a serious fire that would prevent other access methods.
The scariest bit I saw was when using it overhead on the wall. It was getting dangerously close to cutting with the top of the blade, which could have spat the blade back at him.
Actually yes there is a point and if you read my other post you'd realize I agreed with you in the example of a natural disaster as a potential reason for breaching a wall. I just don't agree with name calling and derogatory comments directed at someone who is adding a comment that's meant to be somewhat humorous or especially when comments are directed toward the people that post comments that genuinely don't understand why we do what we do
That's the best reply you could come up with? I have to say this was a first. Someone disagreeing with someone who agreed with them in the first place.
not all trucks can carry a masonry saw, they only have so much space. you probably would find that on light or heavey rescue or a specialized truck, most ladders and engines carry quick vent or standard chain saws, and tenders only carry hose and water
Image you're in a burning building with all exits blocked, no windows or doors, the firefighters have to break down a wall, and the firefighter walks🚶in like... 6:00 "heyy so where's the fire"
ike fun golly i bet youre fun to get in an argument with are all of your responses to ppl who arent as trained as a fire fight as you or as you think you are, srsly bro why do you just BASH ppl for NO REASON why you got such a stick up your ass
@@9volt65 They have wooden planks or kevlar sheeting to prevent glass injuries while moving people out through windows 🙄. If a windows is available then the window is of course the obvious way to go. If the building is on fire then they are not going to spend 20 minutes busting a wall while the people inside burn to death, while they could also just have broken the window. Perhaps first grow some intelligence before acting sarcastic. But Steve O has it right, it's a training for busting the wall.
Hey, you need to teach them chainsaw safety. I don't care who you are, you don't cut towards people and you don't grab branches or twigs near the chainsaw when it is on. You wait till the cut is done to grab any branches or twigs. I've worked in the tree business for 9 years my dad 37 years, and the number one thing they first teach you when cutting, make sure no one is in 5 ft of you and the chainsaw when it is on.
First thing I thought was the zero regard for personal safety when I saw a guy grabbing at a few twigs just to make it seem like he was busy meanwhile there was a running chainsaw inches from his hand and lower arm.
With that many windows on one wall that was definitely a load bearing shear panel that you just chopped through, nothing like having half the building fall on your team. You could probably pile dirt in front of the widow faster so you could walk through with out a step ,if that was the ubjective or use a ramp or latter
I have had to break a wall, it's tiring but highly effective when you can't really get a different way for ventilation, so I guess all of that comments asking why come from poeple that haven't seen any situation where it's needed. Anyway, respect the pros, they train in this kind of scenarios to be ready for anything, don't be a douche, support your local FD
LOGAN ROBINSON probably just swinging with his off hand. It's like trying to throw a ball with your left hand when you're right handed. Never looks pretty.
I have a question about this training, why do you go in through a wall? Can't imagine any scenario or building where you would have to enter through a wall and can't use a window.
Thank you, looks like this training is a result of different building codes. Asked a friend and he told me they don't learn this in Germany. There is always a designated emergency entry which does not require to smash bricks. In some cases it's a steel plate they have to cut but they never have to smash bricks.
I don't know anything about type 1 buildings, that is a us specific code. Yes, here in germany many industrial buildings don't have windows, but they all have emergency exits and entrances.
Well if you would try this with a german house, in a case of a emergency The house would be long collapsed and the firefigther still would try to get through The wall. 😅
Man I love seeing all the keyboard firefighters in the comments... OFCOURSE there are windows there. But they are training as if there is none... as if there is no other entry point to that area of the building. Sure, 90% of the time you’re gonna have easier access points but what if the time comes where there are none? That’s what training is all about... creating “what if” scenarios. It’s better to train and be prepared for any possibility than rely on common techniques or scenarios.
I get that this is for training purposes and they are not training on this style of building structure but I could think of 10 different ways to get inside a building like that. Or 10 different tools for that matter sledge hammer calls for more man power and on a hot day you will be sending a lot of different companies to the hospital for heat exhaustion or other injuries. I guess if all you have is a sledge hammer on your rig then this is a good training lol
Fire a n d r e s c u e. They don't only attend fires. Also depending on the block design, you can smash a man sized hole in a black wall in under 30 seconds. This was harder than many because they were splitface blocks between windows, meaning all standards no H's. Only thing making it easier is they weren't filled.
Why would the fire chief tire his guys out doing it manually? I mean, they could of waited for the pneumatic/electric tools and still would of made it inside in less time that it took with the sledge.
Man, some of these dudes do not look like they have a lot of experience using sledgehammers. I guess you don't often need to breach walls manually if at all.
@@Alvah707 No, that's why #77 almost cut off his mates leg. Chainsaw safety is a big priority. Especially in an environment when things need to get done quickly. If 77 was in a situation where he needed to move fast, his buddies leg is either gone or severely damaged. You 1.) Never cut towards anyone. 2.) Keep atleast 5ft away from any active chainsaws. 3.) You use the bottom portion of the blade to keep debris from flying everywhere and to have more control. He's putting way to much pressure on the tip of that blade which means he has little control when he cuts all the way through. Which that could lead to him swinging the blade out to far and cutting someone. The blade is dull which again leads to him putting to much pressure. The safety supervisor should have stopped him as soon as he turned on the chainsaw and started cutting towards everyone. He corrected it later on but there were still a lot of people within that 5 ft range. He then continues to use it on a concrete wall. That blade is gone and they'd be lucky if it didn't break and hit someone. I've been in thw tree business for 9 years and my dad 37 years. And what I saw here scares me that these people are out there using chainsaws incorrectly. If you're going to have a chainsaw, they need to learn how to properly use one and the safety behind it. BTW just nit-picking, but the blade was a little more lose then what it should have been which could lead to a jam or the blade breaking.
That has to be one of the bluntest chainsaws I've ever seen!

Every fire truck needs a masonry chainsaw . hahahahahaha every dude that was swinging woke up the next day saying im to old for that shit.
not all trucks can carry a masonry saw, they only have so much space. you probably would find that on light or heavey rescue or a specialized truck, most ladders and engines carry quick vent or standard chain saws, and tenders only carry hose and water

I have to say it. THROUGH THE WINDOWWWWWWWW THROUGH THE WALLLLLLL

but if you open the wall air will also get in, right?

sharpen that chainsaw! OMG rookie mistake
Da dadaa how ?
VainGloryGamer22 he's saying it's a rookie mistake having a dull saw.

Another video showing us the brilliance of American teamwork and intelligence☑️
Lol thats funny
Or...... use the window
hmmm, today i will evacuate people who may be wounded or otherwise unable to stand through windows with broken glass. surely this cannot go badly
Or they're demonstrating a technique to use if something like a window is unavailable. You knob.

When will you EVER have to go through a wall to get inside Any structure. If there were no doors or windows, how could people get in and see out?
Legend has it that they’re still trying to get through the wall
That 90s educational video music tho
The chainsaws is blunt very useful when someone is stuck in a flaming building
Garrett I love your Channel
I got locked out of my house this is how I got in
As a tree surgeon it pained me watching that fighter fighter during the chainsaw like that

when u see 4 windows next to u

Dude I was thinking the same thing about it
I have a question about this training, why do you go in through a wall? Can't imagine any scenario or building where you would have to enter through a wall and can't use a window.
Daniel Rose they are just training for the possibility. It's always good to be prepared for anything that can happen
Simple how about if there are no windows or doors to go through in that section of the building?

There is always a designated emergency entry which does not require to smash bricks. In some cases it's a steel plate they have to cut but they never have to smash bricks.

Those Sinder blocks aka Bricks on regular houses usually are filled with Concrete they are never Hollow
And that was how I learned to break the fourth wall.
Love that song
Well if you would try this with a german house, in a case of a emergency The house would be long collapsed and the firefigther still would try to get through The wall. 😅
If you ever need a building destroyed, instead of paying a destruction company, ask the local Firies if they need a building to destroy for training.
That looks fun.
By the time they’re done hammering through the wall I’m burnt toast
Me at 5 seconds: Break the freaking wall already!!!!!
All the negative comments on here.....that’s how I know I’m watching a firefighter training vid.
cutting towards his friends legs? if I hear them hanging on the block wall with sledge hammers I think I'd realize it's over for me lmao
you have to be carful with the jaws of life
THE CAPTAIN SPOKE FOREVER
in a steel reinforced concrete wall, no way you gonna go through it that easy
captain: everyone know how to use a sledgehammer
they made that look hard
I wonder how many of the more...portly men in the group actually made it through. I can't imagine they'd be first on the line.
I'mma go break my neighbor's wall now
Ok, and now a proper brick wall.
"God damnit"
I hope the chainsaw that they use for real, has a better chain on it. The in the video has cut too much dirt and grit and looked blunt as heck.
That chainsaw blade was cooked.
Dang they be getting some mats
If the building is on fire you’re worried about a bush in the way? Lmao
Anybody knowing what the deal is with the wedge on his helmet?

Almost sounds like backdraft music
In Germany we use something called HILTI
Best training ever put out fires and break shit
Geez everyone inside that building would be dead, as slow as these guys move
THROUGH THE WINDOOOOOOOOOW THROUGH THE WALL
They should have a training on how to use a sledgehammer lol
Just spitballin here just break those things in the wall uhh uhh ohhhh the windows DUH just be careful of flashback
Thank god americans build their houses out of card board. A solid build wont even think about to break apart.
I think the guy behind you 1:04 may need some help with that sledgehammer.
Things should run on battery and solar instead of combustion like that chainsaw.
Come on you can hit harder than that
Fire brigade started doing this to our house. We told them fuck off. destroying the place when there's no need
3.24am gotta learn how to take down a house with a sledgehammer
Before when the instructor said the word, sledgehammer: -_- After O_O
Seems to me like if you saw through a wall you run a serious risk of cutting into a live electrical wire...
Why would the fire chief tire his guys out doing it manually? I mean, they could of waited for the pneumatic/electric tools and still would of made it inside in less time that it took with the sledge.
Hey genius it was training
Threw the window! Threw the wall!
I remember the first time i ever saw a sledgehammer or a chainsaw for that matter. I'm embarrassed for these guys.
Easiest way to knock down the wall jump on the excavator
Thatwas a super dull chain saw
I can tell there's a lot of experts in the comment section supposedly
