The blue helmets at the incident is a great initiative and an excellent way to get kids exposed to what it's like to be a firefighter. Great episode, thanks 👍🏻
Our Village is working on a program in our High School for student to get their Firefighter 1 when they graduate. The program is still in the development stage. It would be good though to have such a program as SMFR to teach students what goes on as a Firefighter/EMT.
@@sgt.guardsman2221 Here in Marion County, Florida, students have the opportunity to attend the College of Central Florida during the first semester of senior year to acquire their EMT certification, and Florida State Fire College during the second semester to acquire Firefighter 1. It's really a wonderful program and every student who participates truly loves it.
The Arapahoe Rescue Patrol is a very valuable service, and do much more than just SMFR Rehab Assistance! They are the main search and rescue team for Arapahoe and Elbert County and perform their main duty as a search and rescue unit, but love assisting SMFR whenever they can! If you are or know someone who is a high school student in the Centennial/Littleton Colorado area interested in emergency services, share our name with them! It's a great way to experience this field first hand. Learn more about who we are at www.arapahoerescue.org
There is also a fire explorer program for ages 14-20 yrs old that teach the basics of firefighting. I have turned in the application and I’m just waiting for the next class to start. So excited 😆
I wonder if anyones ever transported a parrot with an MDT in the vehicle. Next morning at 2 AM: "Your incident has been updated. Your incident has been updated. Turn left. Weee wooooooo."
bunker108 - I was thinking the same thing. I always time in these videos time from park to first water on structure. There are so many horrendous videos out there where they are fiddle around for 5-10 minutes before first water ever happens. Anytime it is in the 45-second to 1’15” mark, it shows a level of professionalism and proficiency. Glad to see South Metro on the ball!
Big fire = Big water. Definitely good work getting water on the fire. Definitely have seen many videos out there with delayed water on the fire or Big fire with an ineffective hose line.
Water from a Deck Gun should have been flowing in 30 seconds of arrival. And, the Deck Gun would have been much more effective than that limp stream they had.
@@jeffroalpha700 What about a Deck Gun which would have been flowing water 35 seconds faster? What about that limp stream we saw wetting down the driveway?
I have to applaud and tip my helmet to the gentleman in command. Although the others did a great job getting water quickly on the structure. The commanders orders were very clear and his overall demeanor was awesome.
As the Sgt from Arapahoe Rescue incharge of SMFR Rehab the shout out means a lot! Thank you @southmetropio !! Hopefully when our new truck goes in service we can have you guys show it off. If any of you have questions about Arapahoe Rescue and what we do me ask away. I'm more than happy to answer your questions!
I would love to see a Station Saturday or something covering Arapahoe Rescue. That would be interesting to see how the department is set up and what type of calls they answer. Thanks for service.
Very good video. Incident command was very good at directing his incident. A 2.5 line was established in about 1 min and had water on the fire quickly. Nice job
I am not sure which device told him to turn right, but that is really cool. For it to receive the alarm and automatically calculate the route is pretty awesome.
At 4:55. Did the GPS say turn left in 1/10 of a mile but then the Chief turned right the correct way towards the fire. I don’t know if I’m the only one who caught that. 🤔🤨.
PIO South Metro Fire Rescue PIO. Thanks for answering my comment. I just got the notification saying you replied even though you did it 3 days ago. Also just out of curiosity was the incident ever updated.
Fantastic job getting water on the fire so fast! Most of the fire videos I have seen, takes them 10 to 15 minutes. Mostly because the firefighters look to be disabled they move so slow. You're guys I actually saw some running. Shows how much they care and the pride they have in their job. Be proud!
Great vlog as always guy's glad everybody got out of those fires safely and no injuries. Take care god bless you all roll on the next vlog glad you raised all that money and you came out on top bye for now
Out of all the videos I've watched over the years, Hats off to your crew and the quick time from arrival to putting water on the fire. I get so frustrated at times watching firefighters lollygagging around, putting on thier PPE... 30- 45 seconds later they are set but no water. Your crew rocked.
Great footage, like to watch and pick up tips and tidbits to make my service better. Great job on the donations. Thanks for the shout out!🚑🚒 stay safe brother's and sister's.
Great job SMFR, It is is really fun seeing how you operate and the incidents that you attend, Great work PIO's too. I do the same sort of role for Staffordshire Fire and Rescue. Keep it up
I wish we had something like the Arapahoe rescue in South Jersey. I know my department, Sea Isle City, could have benefited from something like that on several occasions. Good work as always.
That is good that you are getting secondary school children/ Adults. Getting to help out at fires. The out side cooker that went on fire could the family not keep a foam fire extinguisher at the side of the out side cooker just in case just a thing like the side of the house does catch fire and all so call you.
Great Knockdown! You can see the excellent training these firefighters have. IC was was calm cool and collected. I myself am a Chief Officer the only thing i didnt understand was no actual 360 by IC.. Command from inside their vehicle maybe their SOP. Still an awesome job done by all!!
It really makes a huge difference and safer for everyone on the road. As you may notice, it’s only green in one of the four directions which unclogs any backup stuck in, or if absolutely necessary, use the oncoming lane.
I was a Reserve FF for a small bedroom Community in the West part of Contra Costa County , CA. In Oakland CA was an EMT until I was in the FIRST P.M training program and we brought ALS to the street. Eight years a Navy Corpsman onboard a Cruiser ...tons of training = Advancd Damage Control designator. Cross decked Sea Duty to Sea Duty to Go Green. Field Med Service School at Pendleton then Two tours with FMF , LPO of BAS and combat in one War. I finished my 37 year Career of Service As an RN, CEN working in level one and Two trauma Centers. Im an unashamed FIRE buff on ewe tube . I Love Newark FIRE Videos with Batallion Chief Decker and his Videos. They are Not polished , rather raw and visceral. Stockton CA ( parts of which are nortenos , surenos , MS 13 , Crips and Bloods infested ) has awesome Videos. These Two teach alot IF one is a critical thinker. I rarely watch this. Its very Hollywood and Two PIO’ s , one with the cheerleader affect complete with dimples , constantly smiling despite tragedies. Do PIO’s bring in tax increases ? As I dont understand their Role in a small - low medium sized Department. When you are Not Cheering SMFD ...... Do you Miss being FF’s and working ?
South Metro Fire Rescue PIO thank you very much for a very well articulated answer. Though I’m shocked re recruiting..... back when I tested about 6 times , while also taking Fire Science in a Community College I just gave up .....and never got my “ dream job “. One saw the same group of guys ( no Women in the dark ages of late 70’s to 80’s. ). After awhile I found it depressing....same faces traveling the state. Back then CA had a horrific cut in ALL aspects of public safety. Well you guys are awesome recruit agents and I’m sure the residents of your response area sleep better having such a bad ass department. SFMF , Mike
About what is the raw amount that a new PIO for SMFR would make? That is on average not including pay vacation, on and off responding, cost of living, tax’s and anything else but as I did raw before everything else is taken out!
Fires like this are really rare here in Germany, we have really strict building-codes requiring fire protection measures, most buildings are made of stone (concrete).

You need to do a video of all the patch’s by state for the United state’s or by area. I would like a video of patch’s form just Michigan though please? Thanks so much!
I'm curious about the background of the PIOs. Conner has mentioned coming to the job from broadcast journalism. I was wondering if Eric or Kim have experience as firefighters.
Wow, we are so archaic in Arizona. At least the LE side.... We don't have incident update notifications. We have to scroll down and keep reading as we drive.... that's cool! See that fire? That's why I'll stay on this side of Emergency services
Many traffic signals are equipped with an emergency vehicle pre-emption device, which allows emergency vehicles to activate a green signal in the direction they are traveling. The most common pre-emption device is triggered by the sound of the emergency vehicle’s siren. On most traffic signals, the device also looks for a flashing white light, this is equipped on most emergency vehicles, and is more visible on certain vehicles than others, for example, on DFDs rigs, you can see a flashing white light in the middle of the lightbar on the Velocities, or above the grille, this flashes to show the direction in which the emergency vehicle is coming to the intersection changing the correct light to green.
@@SouthMetroFireRescuePIO Oh wow, thanks for the information! A lot more goes into the engineering of the vehicles as well as the infrastructure than I previously thought.
@@SouthMetroFireRescuePIO I remember when they were first installed in my hometown in the 1980’s... what a difference they made and make. Prior to that, our dispatch could control the signals but we had to radio in as we approached and cleared each intersection.

Some say the incident is still updating to this day.
LOL!
I agree haha

😂😂😂😂😂 Now that's funny!!

I wonder if the incident was updated.
CountryGamer LOL yeah 😂
I’m not quite sure if it was or not.....

Impressive time between arriving on scene and getting water onto the fire! A+!

No 360 and sat in the car interesting approach

Apparently I’m 8 months late to an incident update...
Michael Culpepper apparently I am 11 months late
The best Of the best i guess that means we’re overhaul...one of us should probably call dispatch with an update
Excellent execution using onboard water supply.
Loved this video. Congrats on the fast responses to putting those fires out fast and collecting the most money for MD!
Great vlog as always guy's glad everybody got out of those fires safely and no injuries. Take care god bless you all roll on the next vlog glad you raised all that money and you came out on top bye for now
Both ladies do a great job explaining these fire scenes.
Definitely more response videos this was one of the best vlogs by far
That was one of the fastest put outs I’ve ever seen, great job to all involved!
Really glad to see the blue helmets out there, they are great.
ruclips.net/video/a44GGQ623mo/видео.html
SMFR's engine company's are really loving putting foam in operation for overhaul.
Even to this day 2 years after I can still here “Your incident has been updated”
More vlogs please. The vlogs are always the highlight of my week.

Thank you for sharing what it like being a firefighter and what like going job interview process is to come a firefighter
- one of the best jobs that I have seen on attacking a fire so quickly upon on arrival!
The chief really handled this incident well. He was not worried at all. I applaud him.
He handled it good but your incident has been updated
Read my comment. THAT, is handling this incident well.
Excellent work from the firefighters and all producing the quality video. Thanks a lot!
Thank you for your service and keeping everyone safe
Awesome insight to being a Fire Fighter! Thanks guys (and pretty gal) keep up the good work! 🇺🇸
Great videos. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the greatly detailed videos.
Great job SMFR, It is is really fun seeing how you operate and the incidents that you attend, Great work PIO's too. I do the same sort of role for Staffordshire Fire and Rescue. Keep it up
You're so good ! Thanks for all videos ! Be safe ! Stay awesome! Greetings from Brazil !
Great vlog as always, but I wonder, is the incident still being updated?
I don’t know
well executed. great call going for the 2 1/2 off the bat. many crews forget about that and it takes longer to cool that involved area
Love the sutphen tower coming in a commanding way to get the right placement
That is really cool about Arapahoe Rescue Patrol.... Really cool.... This fire would have been a 4th Alarm in Federal Heights... ;) Great job
Ayeeee.. that crew put that 2.5 to work ! Great work!
Great IC, well managed incident. That’s a great initiative with the kids too.
Can‘t wait for an update on this incident!
Having & Being a fire cadet of some sort are Great, Nice video as usual, thanks!!
Very good job by the rescue service! Quick on with water, which is otherwise very unusual in America. All credit to these firefighters!
Great video guys, good work this past week! Could you maybe show off the wall of patches you guys have collected?
MDT: In one half of a mile your incident has been updated
Chief: Wait what?
Wow, the crew from 15 very impressive, great work
Big Fire 🔥 equals BIG WATER 💧 Nicely done 🤙🏻 be safe
Your incident has been updated!
I wish we had something like the Arapahoe rescue in South Jersey. I know my department, Sea Isle City, could have benefited from something like that on several occasions. Good work as always.
Me too foe where I live I wish we had one!

Perfect use of the yelp and wail chief!!!
Rumor has it the incident is still being updated.
Wow. Was not expecting to see a Saskatchewan fd send a patch in
love the video wish the county i live in had a program like yours when i was younger i’m in douglasville GA
Me too... Midland Michigan!
Love your videos you put up that's wot made me be came are rural volunteer firefighter in New Zealand

Noticed out of a lot of major cities, South Metro is the only I've seen where IC sits in their vehicle.
Great Knockdown! You can see the excellent training these firefighters have. IC was was calm cool and collected. I myself am a Chief Officer the only thing i didnt understand was no actual 360 by IC.. Command from inside their vehicle maybe their SOP. Still an awesome job done by all!!
Really cool how you guys can change the light color from red to green.
It's called the Opticom signal preemption system or something like that. I never realized how fast it worked.
It really makes a huge difference and safer for everyone on the road. As you may notice, it’s only green in one of the four directions which unclogs any backup stuck in, or if absolutely necessary, use the oncoming lane.
EasternLawz-google ‘traffic signal preemption’.
Thank for the good Viedio for your good Work .Have a nice Week as far as .I hope ,i have no mistake with my words .Vanessa
It’s amazing how so many of those cars kept driving past or in front of the truck instead of pulling over and stoping.
South Metro I love your videos
It's nice to see a fire Dept that understands fast water
Nice knock down, that was ripping....
Very good rig placement!!!
The CHAOS in this video (Chief has arrived on scene)
I love it ❤

Wonder how many fires the two loads been to in they're careers not as public information.
"Nobody inside?"
"Uhh... atleast by what i've been told"
"Ok.."
**Thats promising... **
And no 360, first thing you ALWAYS do.
But still a nice response otherwise.
@Mr.M My point exactly!
I was about to question weather I’ve seen this video before. But as soon as I kept hearing “your incident has been updated” I knew
Great job best response I ever seen
Outstanding job SMF!
🚒🚒🚒Another great job by South Metro Fire keep up the great work
Nothing better then a chief telling everyone what line to pull, where to park, get your gear on, blah blah blah. Must have been everyone’s first day.
Wow that was fast. Nice job.
What MDT program are you using that has integrated GPS?
Texas was representing 🤙🏽🙌🏽
He, very good blog, do will have a Patch vom Germany?
Fun fact about Cincinnati Fire Department they where the first full time paid fire dept in the nation, established in 1853
Fires like this are really rare here in Germany, we have really strict building-codes requiring fire protection measures, most buildings are made of stone (concrete). However, I have huge respect for your firefighters' bushing against the odds in this situation with mostly wooden structures. Get home save always. Or like we would say in Germany: Gut Wehr!
I've seen that in more and more videos lately, and as I haven't seen it before, I would like to know: What exactly is being updated?
Units assigned, alarm level or something else? How does it work? If you could explain that, I'd be very grateful.
Best regards from Germany
I subscribed ever since Vlog 2 or 1 I think
I’m not sure, but I think his incident may have been updated?

Wow, we are so archaic in Arizona. At least the LE side....
We don't have incident update notifications. We have to scroll down and keep reading as we drive.... that's cool! See that fire? That's why I'll stay on this side of Emergency services
I didn't know they had the ability to change traffic lights in their favor. Can someone elaborate?
Many traffic signals are equipped with an emergency vehicle pre-emption device, which allows emergency vehicles to activate a green signal in the direction they are traveling. The most common pre-emption device is triggered by the sound of the emergency vehicle’s siren. On most traffic signals, the device also looks for a flashing white light, this is equipped on most emergency vehicles, and is more visible on certain vehicles than others, for example, on DFDs rigs, you can see a flashing white light in the middle of the lightbar on the Velocities, or above the grille, this flashes to show the direction in which the emergency vehicle is coming to the intersection changing the correct light to green.
