Guys kicked ass on this. This was a big fire that was deeply seated with exposure throughout. Tough tough fire. The bucket on tower 146 doused a lot of it. Hard to do a interior attack on a fire like this. Great hustle and FDNY professionalism as always. Great job boys and girls. Command was on top of the fire spot on.
I've been watching your videos for awhile now. Thank you for the great footage. I was a fire buff in Buffalo NY in the late 80s. Your skills have grown over the years and now you are one of the best around. Stay safe brother, God bless.
Never had a "Mayday" before, so the situation must be pretty hard here. Again hats off to the bravery of the firemen doing an interior attack with the danger of the building collapsing on them!
I enjoy your videos and glad you are not overloading them with ads like the other. Was assistant chief of local volunteer fd here. Watching NYFD is more than impressive
Great job/work from FDNY, & as usual Great camera work, giving us good shots of the FDNY in action. I hope that no one was injured & also my heart goes out to the people who were negatively impacted by this fire. I also hope that ones were able to favorably recover.
Tough fire conditions. With multiple alarms so much information coming and going. Kudos to command. FDNY at it's finest. Certainly one of your best videos. Thanks.🇺🇸🐢🐄🚒🚑
I just watched Live Rescue from last night and they showed a preview of the new episodes of Rescue Cam and I knew when they showed video from a nearby roof it had to be yours. Great to see your work get a bigger audience. Stay safe John and all members of FDNY
amazing catch tonight great video to all the fdny brother amazing job on the fire who work on it to putt it out great job stay safe up by you guys an all the brother to
Every fire, housefire or wildfire, is a living beast. Perhaps the most powerful of the four elements. It has it.s own life and willpower. This one was a big beast. Credit to the Firefighters!
I don't know how they do it, but FDNY are so well organized it's insane. I don't know who's better: the FDNY or this guy for the videos he has. This channel is unbelievable. Great work and great accents! "Ten Fowrah" Love it!
@@THEMAJESTIRIUM1 You might be a simple guy but you do great work. Look at all the comments. Everyone is praising you and the work you do. I'm hooked on your channel and I'd like to get a gofundme going for you
@@THEMAJESTIRIUM1 And thank YOU for everything you do!!! I saw someone comment about you on another channel. I think it was Loud Labs where this guy said he got sober watching your videos. If that's not a huge compliment, I don't know what is
That back kitchen area was where the Mayday guy was, He was OK but without the help there doing what they did was how he came out whole. Guys just did what it is that do so well.@@THEMAJESTIRIUM1
God, only the FDNY could park three massive ladders with a building like that, and they wiggle them in, and if that doesn’t impress the hell out of people, I don’t think anything would impress you!
Notice all the electrical lines the fireman’s trying to move those ladders around, yea, and the worst part, do ya think the powers shut down? And he’s walking around that roof like there no fire under his feet!? Balls of steal!
Maji, awesome video once again. I don’t know if you ever need money, but I guarantee, all you have too do is charge a dollar, for all your video’s. You’d have thousands coming in xtra! Thanks Maji, your the best!
Bro as I'm watching live rescue on a&e they show your clip of the fire in queens where the backdraft happened lol. I guess it will play next Friday on rescue cam lol
Real good video and extensive coverage of the whole fire in three structures. Mr. Ramos, I really feel sorry because it looks like these buildings were the habitat of humble people because I saw three antennas of analog TV like the ones of the old times.
Your peers do not search out roofs and other locations to video fires....it's why you have 85k subscribers.....and they aren't even a close second. Great video as always John and I sent you a pm on your Facebook page.
Due to the Governor feeling people don't have to pay rent, people are torching the building for the insurance since owners are losing money and can't pay the mortgage. It's not just a "coincidence" that NY is seeing a big outbreak in fires.
Happy New Year John to you an your family xx super fantastic coverage... fantastic work by the first responders... doing the best they could with the area they are in... Stay safe John.
Thanks for the excellent coverage. A long time on a big "job". They could easily have lost the whole block. BTW, how do you like the Baofeng portable radio? I'm thinking about getting one of them.
WELL, I AGREE AL! IT COULD HAVE BEEN WORST! AS FOR THE BOEFENG I DON'T USE IT ANYMORE. I PREFER THE MOTOROLA! BUT IT IS A GOOD RADIO THO. THANKS SO MUCH.....
Great footage! My thoughts go out to the residents of the affected buildings. Watching everything you own go up in flames is no joke. Hopefully NYC has banned attached wood frame buildings so fire traps like this cannot be rebuilt.
One thing about those old buildings they are big time fire traps. FDNY did a great job getting it under control despite the wall collapse. And yet another job for the wrecking crew.
Great work ... do you have a working relationship with the FDNY you have amazing access .. if you were here in Phoenix, you would never be that close. What is the camera your using ... just curious.
@@THEMAJESTIRIUM1 kind of figured I mean 5 alarms some one is going to twist an ankle, minor smoke inhalation (especially in the tower ladder bucket) stuff like that you bet is going to happen. I'm glad no members & residents were severely injured.
The blue building was my apartment. My neighbors home is going to be destroyed due to the fire. Wishing all the victims to be safe and healthy. You will all be in my prayers.
@@Chrislimey38 Nope, but Center (dispatch/con) was contacted. One of the smaller Fire Departments we work, came but boy we got the business! Don't know why it did it, but someone got an A_S chewing. Not long after, we ended up I'm 35w N. About 40 miles from our station. You could hear the dispatchers, and by the time they asked us for our first rig, to cover, their PSA, we had already arrived there, and we were the ones who asked for three helicopters. By the time we got into their city, you could tell, it was a full out FUBAR. They had 4 small fire departments, and we kept going when we started heading South on 35w, getting on the freeway, it was a Sunday night, Fall, so everyone in the state goes North, or East to Wisconsin too see the Fall colors! We slid into the fast lane, and ended up on the furthest vehicle on the South side. Hopped out, B walked North, and I went to the Silver mini about 20' from the rig. Standing at what was supposed too be the left side door, that slides open, that was wide open. Being there was five guys from one of the Fire Departments, I asked what do we have? All five guys pointed at the female. I said move start getting the Hurst and Homtra tools we carry on all our rigs. They came back, and not a single one knew how to use it. By that time one of our other rigs pulls up. And we train constantly, and we have to be under 15 minutes. The woman was in the front passenger seat, no seatbelt, now she was between the first and 2nd row seats. Underneath the 2nd seat, with two complete snapped ankles, and as steal rod through her ankles, she was unconscious. So I tried getting them to focus, while me and one of our guys from the 2nd rig got line started, you could hear one of the medic helicopters about to land. I said as soon as they land, she will be the first one air lifted out. I decide since both lower legs were snapped off, and only tissue holding the two feet and ankles together, I threaded/pulled the rod out. And within seconds, we pulled her out as a load and go, and I told them to cut her pants, shirt, top undergarments off. But don't lose the two IV's. They were scared to cut her clothes off. Grrrrrr, they walked up just as we were finishing up with the back board. I did a primary, and gave them a quick 2ndary. We had got Oxygen on her, earlier. They took a quick BP, rand a strip, and loaded her onto their stretcher. I didn't know anything about her, other than she was a mom in the passenger front seat, they had hit, a broken down vehicle on the shoulder. Late Fall Sunday evening, and that spun the van into other traffic headed South. The other two helicopters landed, and carried out the injured. We got everything put back, and the other rigs, were all going to head South with walking wounded. We figured we'd take the husband, and two of the kids with us, and head to one of our Level one Trauma Centers, where the wide was being taken. About 5 months later, one of the first rigs there, received a letter. She wanted to thank them for saving her life. Yes, they reattached both feet, she ended up with a heart contusion, lacerated liver, and head trauma, and a few broken bones. Ribs and such, and why we kept going, it was the dispatchers voices! When we spoke with the guys who helped, we told them to come down, we'd teach them, and show them what to do! God we Love playing with the Hurst & homatra tools. I took a chance that day, would I do it again? Yep, we call it circling the drain! The only good thing, the accident happened so fast, the arteries sucked back when they were snapped off. Where the steal rod came from, we never had a clue. Why nobody did triage, that's a Great question! I know it sounds like it's all about me, but that's because I was writing in first person. As we were about to head South for the Level 1 trauma center, in our fairly new rig, only weeks old, with extra long body & extra head room, we couldn't get it up over 30mph. We pulled over, asked for mutual aid, for three patients. Two kids, backboarded & stable, and one father, th asdt felt guilty as hell. Was a little tired, when their van hit the parked vehicle. Just prayed his wife wouldn't remember that part. As far as the rig fire, we got the master shut off, that stopped it from burning the rig down.LOL think about it, we have assll kinds of training, yet when our rig starts smoking, we jump out? WTF? I'll have to tell you about a cardiac arrest. All I can say, why did we always get the crazy calls? Yet B and I, always ended up with them. Why Lord, why?
@@azul8811 was a firefighter/emt, assistant chief and been in enough fires to know that sometimes they’re just a cluster. FDNY is an excellent organization and no insult was intended just said the video was awesome
@@azul8811 in the 90’ s South west Missouri was not union,. Started with Central Taney County FPD , City of Forsyth, Western Taney County FPD was where I ended. Training included FF1/2, EMT, HazMat A, Fire service instructor, Wild land firefighter certified and various technical rescue specialties. I can not believe that a compliment of a video and a simple question can trigger so much interest.
In my small town of 40k when a house is destroyed by fire and can't be repaired they tear it down and leave a vacant lot forever. If that building is demolished will someone replace it or will the land sit empty?
I bet Danny's Pizzeria sold a lot of Pizzas that day. I mean, probably best location direct on scene with a 5th alarm fire that takes a long time to put out. I'm sure a lot of firefighters got hungry after some time and the bystanders surely too. On top comes that the RAC SPARE was directly in front of them too.
Because I live down south, I can’t understand a word they’re saying. Guess I need subtitles or something. It’s ironic cause most of the time it’s the other way around.
I can help: “We’s a fixin’ to spray that there fire with some water a fore it spreads to that there other house. Can you fellers raise up that there bucket a might so’s ya kin hit the gosh darn fire a-head on and give it what fer? We’s be much obliged. And which one of you pumpin’ folks is sendin’ water to my bucket? I’d sure like you to git it a-gushin’.”
I’m a line of duty disabled fire fighter. Your videos are second to none best on the web. Thank you keep up the good work.
WELL, THAT MEANS A LOT TO ME JERRY! HOPE YOU ARE WELL AND THANKS SO MUCH.....
I thank you so very much for your sacrifice Sir. 🖖

@@azul8811 was a firefighter/emt, assistant chief and been in enough fires to know that sometimes they’re just a cluster. FDNY is an excellent organization and no insult was intended just said the video was awesome
@@waymontaylor1556 Oh? What IAFF local, may I ask?
@@azul8811 in the 90’ s South west Missouri was not union,. Started with Central Taney County FPD , City of Forsyth, Western Taney County FPD was where I ended. Training included FF1/2, EMT, HazMat A, Fire service instructor, Wild land firefighter certified and various technical rescue specialties.
I can not believe that a compliment of a video and a simple question can trigger so much interest.
danke
THANKS SO MUCH.....
In my small town of 40k when a house is destroyed by fire and can't be repaired they tear it down and leave a vacant lot forever. If that building is demolished will someone replace it or will the land sit empty?
THEY WILL TEAR IT DOWN IF THEY CANNOT FIX IT......
A lot of big fire this year
YES, MANY INDEED! THANKS SO MUCH.....
I bet Danny's Pizzeria sold a lot of Pizzas that day. I mean, probably best location direct on scene with a 5th alarm fire that takes a long time to put out. I'm sure a lot of firefighters got hungry after some time and the bystanders surely too.
On top comes that the RAC SPARE was directly in front of them too.
IDK BUT THANKS SO MUCH.....

Because I live down south, I can’t understand a word they’re saying. Guess I need subtitles or something. It’s ironic cause most of the time it’s the other way around.
Two people separated by a common language
Lol
OK.
I can help: “We’s a fixin’ to spray that there fire with some water a fore it spreads to that there other house. Can you fellers raise up that there bucket a might so’s ya kin hit the gosh darn fire a-head on and give it what fer? We’s be much obliged. And which one of you pumpin’ folks is sendin’ water to my bucket? I’d sure like you to git it a-gushin’.”
