* WATCH THE FIRST LINES PUT INTO OPERATION* Milford, Ma house fire with audio and evacuations
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 окт 2019
- Watch the first lines put into operation as firefighters are met with heavy fire conditions in the rear of a structure that spread throughout the home and through the roof. A second alarm was ordered on arrival.
Firefighters were forced to evacuate the building and fight the fire from the exterior as fire took over the house. No injuries were reported and it took firefighters about an hour to bring the fire under control.
During the fire, a Milford fire went back into the burning home and grabbed the American flag that was hanging in the porch so it wouldn't be damaged by the fire.

Much respect to the firefighter that went in and rescued the flag ❤
I was just going to say that!
And that's when I headed over to the comments.
Excellent video, I just seen pictures of this in my Facebook and I was wondering why there was a lot of listeners on my android scanner for Milford fire dept, now I know
Great video. Nicely done!! Thanks
Good video.I love to see firefighters in action.My dad was a firefighter in Detroit and he would have liked watching this.
Best part of the video, the FF saving that American flag.
Probably made in China!
@@ryanehlis426 maybe, maybe not.
Best part of the video? Not in my book. The FF retrieved the flag long AFTER the evacuation order had been given, thus he was guily of disobeying and order, and in doing so put himself and possibly others at risk. A flag can be replaced; a FF cannot.
@@greenmanofkent Agreed Lives are more important than A Flag
@@TheAngryFishh I agree! I kept hoping someone would do that.
The house was lost when the first lines didn’t go in the front door. The fire was pushed deeper into the house because they weren’t.
You cannot push fire... stop making yourself look so foolish
Further, lines were inside before the ones working the porch were even charged
Man them old houses made into apartments are such death traps.
ikr why are they always made into apartments
Balloon frame construction? Those things are always a nightmare...
For a minute I thought they were done! Now I hear the truck signaling to get out! Great work FD, as always. Godspeed. Matt Gregoire did a fine job capturing the good work of the FD.

I thank all the brave men and women first responders! I know I couldn't do it....
I had wondered if someone was going to take the American flag down. Good save.
Me too!
he took the flag out and I want to thank him for doing that
God Bless the Fire Fighters and America!!
@ You know it Brother!
he's going to kill it in my home town of Sutton Mass
Balloon frame structure basement fire very tuff to get under control usually a total loss
Wow so awesome to see a Brave Firefighter stepping up and beyond The Call Of Duty to Save an American Flag from being destroyed by this raging structure fire This Firefighter deserves a medal of Valor
JDS Weather First, Brewer, Maine News & Events that is what I call..respect.
It could have been a picture perfect moment frozen in time.
You mean after the fire was out?
Uh, NO. A very nice gesture, but let's not overstate what he did.
@@ffjsb WOW, are you serious? Really? So you mean to tell me after what the three firefighters did at Ground Zero was the last full measure of devotion, but anything after that is an overstatement? You're a tool.
I so much agree with you J D! When I watched that FF at 14:12, go into that house and retrieve that American Flag from a structure that is on fire, really did bring a tear to my eyes! THANK YOU, FIREFIGHTERS, FROM EVERYWHERE!!
A 5 dollar piece of painted cloth. That fire has his priorities sorted.
He waited until it was under control enough that it was safe to go back in... There was a lot of standing around without much for his crew to do at that point.... A flag like that might mean something very sentimental to the resident. I think his priorities were fine.
beautiful shots, what kind of camera is this? I need one for myself.
Gotta love balloon frames... chase the fire all day and still lose it....
Anyone count how many times he calls for "second alarm"?
At least they saved the flag
Cheaply built wood frames. Thank you, thank you! America always delivers
I came here for the RUclips professional firefighters that weren't there and new exactly what was going on just by watching a video.
They are always good for a laugh 🤣
Once there's extension to the attic or cock loft, it's a whole new ballgame, particularly if conditions force a defensive (or exterior) attack. Great video.
Yep.....and if it gets into the basement, the fire can go ANYWHERE it wants!
Once that top window was broken the structure was history. Nice vertical flow of O2 and heat. It may have extended anyway though.
It doesn't get any better than watching a firefighter rescuing a $5.00 flag.
That represents racism and imperialism 🤮
Way to go get that flag. Thank you for such a great job, all of you.

Cawed campy NRCC report people
Great exterior firefighters. And safety oriented too. Everyone on air in the yard...While burning the place down.
Good thing you can't push fire, or they'd have caught it finally...2 blocks over...
Totally agree with "Maxim". They never intended to open the roof. Fires in balloon frame constructed buildings can be quite challenging, but getting crews inside and opening up on each floor and especially opening the roof early in the operation is a must.
I watch a lot of fire videos, and it seems that vertical ventilation (opening up the roof) is not high on the priority list for many departments. Newer light weight construction makes roof operations a lot more dangerous. Older building construction gives crews more time to get the roof open.
Ballon frames are EXTREMELY hard to put out. Opening the roof will offer no benefit at all. We never open the roof on them. You will be chasing the fire every where for hour and hours and hours.
NorthWest Firefighter... I (retired suburban firefighter) along with just about every Chicago Firefighter would disagree. Opening a roof on balloon frame construction helps to minimize the mushrooming effect in the attic space which allows the guys to work inside to open walls and ceilings. If your department "never opens them up" that would explain why you guys are there for hours and hours.
“Never” is a strong word. At the end of the day, it is situational. I’m going to have to agree that opening a roof can be useful.
Roof was already self venting but you Monday morning quarterbacks know everything.
Gina Tomaso no, it wasn’t. The initial crews were making good headway it appeared. Had the roof been opened, it will give the interior crews time to get through the interior walls to the voids.
This building looks to have a built out attic. Those are always a pain in the ass because you can’t get under it and pull to open the cockloft. The only options are vertical vent, massive manpower, or exterior clabbard removal. All of them are hard work and require a lot of the members operating.
Balloon-Frame construction fires can be very difficult to fight, as demonstrated in this video here. There are many void spaces within the walls and floors, fire can hide.
Scott is a real lifesaver!
Respect, and thank you for saving Old Glory!
What the heck was that guy doing with the deck gun toward the end. Was that supposed to be protecting the A side exposure. Lots of water being aimed at wood in this video. Sad.
I like the color scheme of these trucks.
Did anyone do post event review to see how such a massive response of firefighters, equipment and water resulted in such a poor outcome?
Alot of people don't understand some issues with balloon frame. Its like individual runs going from basement to attic every 16 inches of the wall. It also is older construction meaning the wood is older and dryer so burns better. And the walls are probably camelhair plaster meaning meaning 1in by 1/4in slats from floor to ceiling making a quick fast moving fire.
Deck Gun...... when it's got to be absolutely deluged right away...... accept no substitutes.
nice video man also check out 10 alarm see jeff stang fire p4 inferno marcal paper factory a must see unbelievable wow
Do you know how many different towns fire departments were there ? I saw at least 3
Bellingham, Hopkinton and Milford
Possibly Franklin
@@keolis1988 Thanks , I saw a few on scene
So OK at 14:24 I almost cried, sue me.
4:25 What is that board with tags, in front of Cheif for?
Jed-Henry Witkowski , Each firefighter has their own individual tag. When they get on scene, they hand their tag over to whomever is in charge of staging and wait to be assigned a task. Once a firefighter is given a job, the staging officer moves their tag to represent where that firefighter is and what they are doing. That way you know exactly where everyone is and what they are tasked with.
That is what the term accountability means.
That’s the idea;however, I find myself making entry into fires all the time with my tags hanging on my helmet. Lol We know who is there and who’s inside.
Rule Number 1 ventilation ventilation!!!!!!
@Ronny Koeller thank you Sir. Exactly my thoughts
@Ronny Koeller Attack the fire on full fog? lol Your comment was 3 months ago. With a statement like that I thought it was 30 years ago.
Ronny Koeller next time you’re on RUclips I’d advise you to check out the NIST videos on flow path/fire dynamics
Good job fellas!!
Rất cảm ơn chuong trình chuyền hình thực tế rất nhiều
That ten minute break sure made a difference.
Poor placement of the first arriving engine. Blocked the front of the building, so the ladder couldn't get to the roof for ventilation. Great footage though.
The ladder parked themselves out! The engines could have left more room but the ladder stopped in a position that made the building completely inaccessible. Very poor placement and obviously no intent on truck work being done.
What a mess with thise hoses!
Tyler Mac come in this is Tyler Mac second alarm on the house report too the guys at once
¡DIÓS BENDIGA Á ÉSTOS SERES HUMANOS, QUE ARIESGAN SUS VIDAS Á DIARIO PARA SALVAR A OTROS, SON VRDADEROS HÉROES!
Glad to see you guys on air fighting exterior! Too many wait too long to click in.
rastark02 I hope this is sarcasm lol
@@RyanW413 not at all. For the record, I'm talking about what's going on at around the 1:24 mark. There's not sense in breathing that junk in just because you're not interior. There's nothing heroic about it, either. Run out? Go get another bottle. They had at least 3 apparatus there (more bottles). Conditions can also change even when you're exterior.
Oje oje oje crazy house fire 😥😥
The master streams weren’t necessary. All them guys on the ground should have been upstairs pulling ceiling and this thing would have went out a hell of a lot quicker. The evacuation should have never been called, it was just getting right for the guys to find it.
Says the muppet who's never even set foot inside a firehouse let alone worked an actual fire
@@virgilhilts3924 ruclips.net/video/GCqNp0TYZLE/видео.html You got me. Never set foot in one. This is just some footage from my personal helmet cam and I’ve been a career firefighter for 22 years.
@@virgilhilts3924 So am I still a muppet?
Do they know the cause of the fire ?
I would still like to know how many bunker suits they have??, They get pretty dirty at these fires.
These days at busy FD's they are typically washed after every shift
When If first started in the 80's we only cleaned them occasionally or when really bad, but as we evolved we started to see how many nasty pathogens and such were imbedded in them. Today modern FDs have large specialized washing machines designed specifically for turnouts and bunkers, as well as commercial extractors to remove the moisture.
The same is why firehouses now are pressurized and isolated from equipment rooms and bays in order to keep all the crap out of the living areas. It's also why FD's are switching to "clean cab" apparatus and why you see more and more firefighters packing out at the fire instead of inside the cab.
Irony: Old house with asbestos siding.
Watched this fire scene from the job site on Claflin Street yesterday. The firefighter that saved the flag is an AMERICAN HERO!
Great job to the depts. that fought this nasty fire, saved valuables, and neighbors property that was damaged BUT saved.
IAFF retired, good job guys, Stay Safe!
Doug@ the "ranch"
That's not the definition of a "Hero". He just retrieved a flag with little risk to life or limb. Let's not overuse the term.
Hauptsache die amerikanische Flagge wurde gerettet, der Pickup ist Nebensache.😦😦😦😦😦😦😦 Viele Grüße aus Germany
14:20 God Bless .
Piss poor fire fighting. Safety Sam showing his muscle
What was "piss poor" about it?
1:54 what is that blue thing?
Strike the colors, this house is done.
"First lines" are already in operation before the video starts. We'll use this video as an example of some things to NOT do, but we can't really see the environment, the exposures, or the timeline of events.
"We'll use this video as an example of some things to NOT do"
-Such as...?
@@virgilhilts3924 You failed to answer my previous questions, VIRGIL, and tried to use your fact-free generalizations as substitutes for training and experience. You are welcome to continue wasting your own time, but you have no reason (aside from your bruised ego) to waste mine.
These could be such good videos if you would quit trying to be all artsy fartsy with all the zooming in and out and in and out and in and out. Just get a nice wide shot showing everything that's going on and leave it there!!!
Took long enough to get water into that attic!
Going to need a new roof and a coat of paint for sure
A rager!
I lived there
Why’s your ladder there and up if your not going to use it 🤷♂️
What an incredible waste of manpower. Let's see, there are about 30 guys wearing turn out coats, three guys pulling a couple hundred feet of hose off onto the already laid and charged hose and a ladder truck equipped with an aerial nozzle not charged or directed at the easily accessible second story window.
Talk about the Keystone Kops approach.
Go fight a fire once. You'll shut up then. And don't bother lying to me and saying you're firefighter.... you are not.
@@brotherbrownstone Ever worked a forest fire in the mountains? No? then STFU.

First of all it isn’t manpower. Personnel is the proper term.
Secondly you obviously don’t have any understanding of the objectives and Fire ground tactics. Thirdly you don’t have a clue about construction.
You never deploy all of your resources!!!!!!
Protection of life and property, not property and life.
@@poppiarlin5612 Are you serious? You must obviously be a SJW fool. The term manpower is perfectly acceptable. Second, assuming I know nothing about construction is just about as stupid an assumption as you could have made. I worked as a volunteer First Responder in Bethesda, Md right out of HS in 1971. I owned my own technical design installation and service company for about 15 years including power wiring up to 480 volts, security systems, very elaborate fire alarms and foam dump systems in airplane hangars, remote controls of all kinds of mechanisms and electrical and electronic systems- both commercial and residential.
I have renovated houses including my own, helped to build a church in Irving, Texas from the ground up. I am curious why you seem to think I have no experience in construction. I have also worked evacuations of residents in 2 forest fires here in SoCal as well as worked with other volunteers handling hose lines in the foothills of Hollywood and Sunland -Tujunga communities.
@@Gizmologist1 Make me.
Cellar nozzle would have helped in that window….
What?? Firefighter risking his life to save a flag?
Us firefighters are very slow.
Thanks for proving you know nothing about firefighting
dispatcher is a danger to the community and the fire department.

WOW! What in the hell was this? Should have busted the dormer window in the front, closed the front door on the way out, and just filled the house up with water. It would have been faster. The fire industry now of days... we had something good going 20 years ago. What happened? I just want to cry...😪
You've never worked a fire in your life
Should have started with a can. Lol. Good job boys.
Pretty sad, more looky Lou firemen than worker bee firemen. They spent a lot of money on breathing apparatus to stand outside and watch. 😂
This is shameful! Started off good and then went to total shit when all effort was given up by command. Go in, open up, and put the fire out! While the engine is getting that done, the truck (which should park somewhere other than in front of the NEIGHBORS house) goes to the roof to open up in the rear and keep the fire from mushrooming through the attic. What would also help is to not vent windows in a manner to draw fire though the house. Oh but look at that fancy command board! What a joke!
Fires have been burning in balloon frames for 150 years. If you dont know how to put them out by now it's time to give up the fire business!
@NickyNick yeah the attic was getting worse. Guess what though? If you open up and put water on the fire, it gets better! It's amazing but believe it or not water puts fires out when applied to the seat.
Usually that works best when done BEFORE conditions are that bad but the fire was beatable at that point and did not require evacuation of the entire building. Pull back from the attic, vent the roof, and then push back up and kill the fire. Master streams and soaking the bejeezus out of the rest of the house not required.
Maxim, are you sure you're commenting on the right video? This is not a damn house fire, it's a beautiful wedding. Pull your head out
Horrible attack
I'll never understand FD's that still insist on using combination nozzles
Clown's!!
why didn't the truck company crack the roof and why not let the elevated master stream knock down fire on roof use that lines to protect the exposure building on bravo and delta side
Balloon construction. Started in the basement and it was most likely in the walls from the ground to the roof. It's one of the dangers of old homes in New England. No fire breaks in the walls from floor to floor.
Because the truck parked themselves out for one. I dont thing there was ever any intent to do truck work.
Roof self vented in the back but you know everything Maxim. By the way I am sure you pull up with just a driver on the Ladder truck in Chicago.
@@ginatomaso9962 the roof didn't self vent until after the evacuation was sounded. The roof should have been vented to the rear early on to prevent the heat from the fire running the balloon frame voids in the C-side wall from mushrooming across the attic. This in conjunction with aggressive opening up of the C-side wall to expose the fire and get water on it would have stopped this in its tracks. The only ventilation performed of the upper floor (A-side dormer window) only served to draw the fire across the entire attic.
A little bit of the eave venting fire or even burning off is NOT a vent!
Best part of this video, Trump was in the house.
