Those poor people and animals. My heart goes out to them.
Go help them!!
I can’t imagine. When it reaches the tree tops like that, the land animals have nowhere else to go. :(
@@johnmulder4121You want him to get up from his wheelchair and help!
How? @@johnmulder4121
The guy who set this fire should never see the light of day outside a prison cell for the rest of his life.
his name is gavin newsom
he should have gone first
Prayers people, animals, trees, eco system😢😢😢😢😢
Blessings to all of the firefighters who are battling the flames in the horrible heat ! Trying their best to protect as much as they can. Best wishes and regards to those who are caught in this horrible situation!
Terribly sad for the residents 😢
This year already feels like 2020 again🥲.
Worse so seek JESUS before it's too late
Already? We are 8 months in
Just wait till November
The California environmental regulations help create these fires by not allowing clear cutting old undergrowth .
Car on fire pushed into a ravine...Facts matter
@@shirleyjackson3893 Perhaps both sets of facts, matter.
Clear-cutting is what is causing this problem. Big redwood treats are pretty fire-resistant. Cut them down, and you get dry brush that goes up like paper. And it keeps coming back.
@@alessandromachi1010 Not this time. Unless you want to pay to clear out the undergrowth. It certainly isn't something a timber company will do. No money in it. And watch some of Zeke Lunder's videos (The Lookout). The underburns that he and others have done may have saved Chico (maybe not as the wind was going north, but they didn't hurt.)
We’ve fought clear cutting for yrs! There are enough lightning fires that clear areas before men can get to them!
Feel bad for all the pets and wildlife
Is this the same fire set by the crazy guy who pushed his car into a ravine?
Didn’t know that but looks like the weather was negligent 😮
This was my first thought.
Wait what?!?
That's what I was going to ask, funny how no mention of him anywhere
yes, but there is the push to keep that a secret
The governor needs more money, and he knows what to do to get it....
They keep lightig these fires!!!
California can't catch a break.
Not with our state leaders, they are horrible…
dem state
Are you unaware of what’s happened in Texas this year?????
I know national guard must be working hard to put off this fire.
The oligarchs must really want that California real estate. This was arson.
Same as Hawaii fires...
Same as Australia
Since it was an ex con that had been homeless I don’t know how you would think it was the oligarchy. 🤯. He was a a con with two felonies to his name. Stop with the conspiracy theories. You don’t live here. I do. You don’t know what you’re talking about.
Why do I feel like Newsom was involved in this in some way? Maybe just because I detest him so much, but he is slimy enough for something like this.
For a fire this size you would think there would be way more live body cam footage.
Jesus 🙏🏾❤️
Thank you
Where is daarpas rain makers when you need them,idk maybe it doesnt work that way but they can def make it rain for sure
Being from California every year it's the same situation. And even though I live in ghetto Compton I rarely see the repercussions from these wildfires. With our knowledge and technology this should be a thing of the past, but everything is planned just like Lahaina.
Why are these fires happening every year and sometimes in the same states?
For starters, California has always had wildfires even before humans came. It’s just how our annual weather cycle works. But there are many factors making them worse. Heavier rains and growth in winter, drier summers means more kindling for the flames. Second, human activity like power lines causing sparks or in this case, a crazy man pushing his burning car into a ravine.
@@magesalmanac6424 ok
Is it just me or is every year getting larger and larger
It isn’t you. We had two very wet rainy winters the undergrowth just shut up like crazy. Then we have really excessively hot summers which dries out the underbrush. And it happened a second year. But you know climate change isn’t real. I just spent 17 days in temperatures over 110 or they never drop below 75. I live just outside Chico. Not a lot of fun, especially when you’re on a fixed income and don’t have air-conditioning.
Not sure how long you loved in Chico .
Chico always got days over 100 in the summer since the 1988 to 1991 when my brother was in college .
1996 when I went to the police academy in that area.
@@janetdwclimate change isn't real. Been that way for years.
But always for years in California it goes between drought and a lot of rain .
I even recall snow in Oakland in the 1970s
Wouldn't be a normal year in California without the annual fire outbreak.
Walked out of my house last night and could smell it. (Vegas )
We can smell Vegas from here too.
1990s...I smell one from 200 miles away...smoke and Haze..included..
😂😂😂😂@@northernprepper6981
Yes, there are fires in southern California also that are probably impacting you. The smoke from this huge fire is going north and then east. Right now it is looping around us, but it will come back and sock us in soon.
@@northernprepper6981you are getting smoke from a different fire.
You think California would learn a lesson by now and clean the forest and put in fire breaks
Talk to newsom about that
I live in Las Vegas and have trouble breathing cuz the smoke.....I feel so bad for the ones that are there and closer then me that have to breathe all this. I pray this gets out soon, and you all r ok. 🙏🤗
Can California just invest in the construction of a man made pipeline that runs from the ocean shores to numerous mountains / communities where fires are most prevalent… Build a super sprinkler system connected to those pipes that sprays at ridiculously high pressure and just turn the friggin things on so we can stop fires quicker?
That is one of the most absurd things I have ever read. Not to mention the FACT that the main reason these fires are so bad is because we have had over a century long government policy that prevents natural fires from burning and clearing out deadfall. Fighting wildfires actually makes them WORSE.
California is VERY BIG. It cannot have water pipeline over its 1000s of miles
Look at those tree leaves, untouched next to exploding vehicles.
Mother nature is done with us.
They should not allow construction in these areas. Its too dry and too dangerous.
Or you know take care if your forests but you tree huggers banned controlled burns in the state
Are you joking?
Or on the coasts, or tornado alley or areas that flood or have hurricanes... We moved here before climate change was irreversible and now no place is safe.
Horrific
The arsonist probably some russian IT guy
You should. Call the air tanker they help a lot in situations like this
DEWs much?
Nope, another conspiracy. Fossil fuel companies that make trillions selling their deadly products spent decades buying media outlets and politicians and spreading misinformation about the damage their products do to the climate. Oil companies don’t care that they are destroying civilization, so long as they continue to get their short term profits!
Couldn't have planned it any better.
how is it the only state in america had has to deal with this is also the one that cant find one single solution to control it? hint: starts with D and ends with crats
Doctor strange right there
0:23 0:39 📖🔥🕯️
At this rate will there even be a California left in 10 years..
ชนชั้นนำสั่งงานโหด ทีนี้พอบี้หนีภัย ไม่ไฟข้างล่าง ก็ ไฟ ข้างบนครับ
😪😱💪🙏✨️💞🙏 im so sorry stay strong keep the faith
I don't get why they don't create a solution since this is clearly an issue, they could build a whole system near the areas where water goes off whenever this starts to happen! All these years and the people, animals!
Fire has always been a natural part of this coast and the seasonal cycle. But human activity has made it worse. In reality people should not be building houses in fire zones, just as you shouldn’t live in a flood zone.
Attention. .County Commissors..thing you know Man..FJ B..
Some California people feel that they start the fires themselves for work... like in Montecito...😮
Lots of people are idiots. No firefighter is dumb enough to start a fire in conditions like this. They can keep employed just fine fighting normal fires. (That is a popular urban legend left over from something that actually happened at least once during the Great Depression of the 30s).
Those "california people" are idiots
That comment doesn't make sense. Had a curiosity who are you voting for in this election that would tell me a lot. Hope you have a great day
Millions if not billions in taxpayer dollars are sitting there. Imagine the overtime you can get from working a major fire like this. On top of your annual salary, one can get very wealthy with the additional weeks and sometimes months of overtime. Every year you know someone in that state is going to receive a heafty bonus. Does sound crazy but it's been done by people in the past.
Also, think of the equipment that's used. They can then justify buying new equipment, new tools, new vehicles, and everything involved in the trade every year. You could say they're essentially producing jobs by all of the equipment purchased, then on an even larger scale, think of the people that have to buy new homes, new cars, everything that was lost in the fires. Starting a fire like that produces billions of dollars in production costs for the billions in material that was lost by the fire. Crazy to think that way but it makes sense. It also gives the forestry reason to pick the government pockets for millions to try and replant forest which again produces jobs for forestry personnel. Just a vicious cycle in deed.
Waters. Fire department. Phone call.
The name of the game is, anywhere there's trees there's gonna be fire.
Terrifying.
Yikes...Let's join together and create some heavy rains.
Democrat states have the worst wildfires because of insane land management
or indoctrination and incitement of their radicalized violent extremist base.
I didn't realize Texas was a Blue State. I love the ignorance of people but don't think climate change is a problem don't you?
This isn't a political thing ! Get lost!!😡
@@kimarave5016
Please explain why I am wrong
And arson
This is so bad. Looks like a movie scene.
How that causing from ? How that happen ?
Better to let it burn than using the trees to build houses.🤔
Can we make winter great again? this summer heat is bullmanure
This isn't summer heat pal...
@@emperorpalpatine4953 That is true. But the high summer heat makes water evaporate quick. Dry and crisp vegetation catches fire far easier than moist flora.
@@emperorpalpatine4953it's summer and it's hot... How is it not summer heat?
@brb__bathroom it's not the summer heat 😂 its yall refuse to take care of your forests controlled burns have been banned in California for years it's on the government...
@@therabidsquirrelsage3388He was referring specifically to the fire
Hercules. Very bad scenes of destruction
Such BS this fire should of been contained once stated. Not allowing it to continue to burn🤯
Notice in interviews they never ask about the latest fire fighting technology they're using. In other words they're not getting better at fire fighting.
@@linuxphone9063 What is it you think they should be doing that they’re not doing? You seem to sound like you know more than the rest of us do. Please enlighten us. I’m tired of evacuating.
It was a 5 acre fire at 2:55 on the 24th. By 3:11 that same day they had already requested tactical air support, five engines. By 3:40, an additional engine and copter were requested but the wind shifted and it was going back on areas already burned. Five minutes later the wind shifted again and they requested 10 additional engines and six ground crews. Within the next hour they already started evacuation warnings. Unfortunately it takes quite a bit of time to get those air tankers loaded up and ready to go so we had no support other than a tactical airplane for surveillance and one helicopter. In less than one hour it had gone from 5 acres to 500 acres in mostly uninhabited land. Because I live here, and spent a lot of time in upper Bidwell Park, I can tell you that it’s extremely steep. Where he pushed that car down the ravine is a favorite swimming hole but it’s quite a hike to get down there.
Early on some fire personnel were helping to conduct people out of remote areas because these are rural areas, some of which only have one way in and out. They had to wait for Sierra Pacific industries which owns quite a bit of lumber land to open the gates so that the people could go out the back roads because the main roads were already engulfed.
We don’t have enough police in our area to make sure everybody gets out so the fire crews were helping. Their first priority is to save lives. Next is to save structures and third is to save the wilderness areas.
They’re sending up every airplane and helicopter they can but you can only do so much when you’re fighting a fire that’s in brush covered ravines that are too steep to go down. In addition we have to share that air support with all of the rest of the fires in the area.
When a structure is involved they send out ground crews. Most of the fire spread is in an inhabited land. The reason you don’t see firefighters everywhere is because they’re all out trying to protect the houses in the communities that are there. They are having to rely on air support to try and contain the perimeter because the ground the area is so steep and so undeveloped that there aren’t even roads out there.
If you know more, contact the Fire crews instead of here. It’s not going to help anyone to post on Facebook or RUclips. If you have better knowledge contact the Fire crews and share your knowledge. But next time be specific, because stating “advanced firefighting techniques” really says nothing.
@kirathecanecorso6776
They can’t fight it because it’s mostly undeveloped land with extremely steep ravines. They’re watching it burn because they’re watching for hotspots that are popping up all over the place. We’ve already had two firenadoes which spread sparks everywhere for up to a mile away. That’s what they’re doing.
Much of this is not inhabited land. They are sending most of the firefighters to protect structures in the communities that are there.. There are almost 350,000 acres on fire in this one fire. There aren’t enough people. There isn’t enough machinery. There aren’t enough planes. Sometimes the planes can’t go up because it creates its own windstorms and it’s dangerous for the planes to be up there. If you want more information go to firefighting pages and find out what it is they’re doing when you think they’re just standing by.

Most of the state is red, if only the fires would burn the big cities instead.
Wait, was that a fire tornado?
Yes, the satellite images actually showed two spiraling firedoes inside of that huge plume. I don’t have the images I’m getting that from a firefighter who was interviewed. Terrifying to watch and if you got to see footage with sound, it’s even worse.
If places are known to have fires like this every single year you should probably not let anyone live there....
Where do you suggest they go? Hawaii?
We don't have arsonists come along every year. There just isn't anywhere that is safe from the changes in climate that we have caused.
Wrong title, but hey - drink a mountain DEW "Hot California" ...
"Maui Burst" is out today.
Thanks gavin

Looks so large they probably have to let it burn out on its own.
Uh no, that’s not how it works. They will keep using preventative measures.
All undocumented entries are now beginning to strick!!!!!
Time to look to out of space
who cares
Looks to me like someone's Home Owners insurance is going up. Then the Insurance companies are going to run.
You know, when there's literally a giant fire pillar, in one of the most morally bankrupt state... maybe, just maybe, thats a sign that californian need to repent on their reckless emotional driven behaviour
If that were the case it would be burning Sacramento, Gavin newsom and Nancy pelosis house instead of the deep red rural areas.
1 million acres burn in Texas along with 500 home/ranches and livestock this year.!
The irony!!!! Your reckless emotional driven comment!!!
Absolutely fascinating!!!!
Finally! We were waiting for ever this summer! Cali came so late to the game!
Please pray for Ukraine.

Nature's way of trying to flush the toilet, they call California .
Pure leadership by the inept Governor. They had a year to plan and get more resources . But again its still the same outcome. Very wet winter . Reservoirs are full of water . Yet it still burns . California is broke . So glad those EVs and Solar are working out for you !
Opposed to Trump wanting to have the forests swept and vacuumed 😂😂😂😂
Meanwhile in Texas this year,
Larger fire than any in California history.😂🤣🤡👍
