Great video, so sad seeing people's hones going up in flames.

Row homes suck for this very reason, all those families out of their homes losing everything, so very sad!

This is certainly one unusual way of fighting a fire, that is, by not fighting the fire and instead just let it do whatever it wants to do. I will need to study this unique firefighting technique a little more before I fully understand how it is supposed to protect and serve the public. But there again, I am always open to new ways of suppressing and extinguishing a fire.

Sad to see as good building have fire breaks and should stop fire spreading that easy across so many homes . We know USA has a good equipped fire service and easy stop fires like this with better building standards.

Old all wood homes just a few feet between them a recipe for bad fire.

I really hate to watch the USA fire service in action. But I keep on looking for competent departments.
