It's such a shame to see a beautiful collection of buildings be absolutely gutted like that. Huge respect to the FDNY fighting some of the toughest fires daily. Absolutely fantastic footage, capturing it all from multiple angles.
This is what happens when a FD has adequate manpower and gets many Ladder pipes & ground monitors in operation quickly. I can't believe they got the majority of fire knocked down without a wall collapse. Awesome job
I like the way you put all the information around all the equipment that was involved. The advantage person understand the things that are involved away from the fire and the manpower that is involved.
Good work as always! Always love watching your vids! 1:23 Crazy! That’s I call heavy fire! This just run away from them! 5:49 Inferno 9:40 love the roof shots!
Outstanding coverage, great video! FDNY is amazing to watch in action. God bless all the firefighters and keep them safe! What a shame to see that beautiful church burn. That was one ferocious fire.
I am Christian and I actually teared up. When I saw the church of Notre Dame in Paris burn I cried because of the Relics and also how old that church was. it was begining built in 1163 during the reign of King Louis VII, and was completed in 1345.. And it was found out that a construction worker was smoking up there. thank you guys for all your service
What relics in Norte Dame were stolen? Most were made for the church during the Middle Ages. Most of the artworks in the Louvre were owned by the French kings who commissioned them, bought them, or received them as gifts or as the result of treaties. The Louvre was one of the many royal palaces before the French Revolution. Much of the Greek and Egyptian artifacts were stolen by Napoleon but that’s only a portion of the museum’s collection.
What a great job by the New York Firefighters. The footage was awesome! Hard to know where to put the camera. So much going on. As a Pastor, my heart especially goes out to the Pastor and congregation of the church. Praying for all of you as you move forward from this great loss.
@@1TomTom Ah I see. The FDNY has 6 Satellite units each stationed with an engine company. The satellite units carry manifolds, foam, large diameter hose, and have a huge mounted deck gun. They are rarely used to their full potential at a big fire like this and it would be cool to see one in action.
Sean You are dead right. The FDNY has new Peterbilt Satellites with 5,000 GPM Pumps & a very large Caliber Deck Gun/Monitor. This is a perfect place for the use of satellite capability.

Thanks to your beloved Governor, people can/are will/have been living RENT free for 6 MONTHS or MORE because they can't be evicted and watch him change that once again so they can live rent free for a year at least before they can get them to court for evictions. Then that adds on another 3 months because the courts will have 500,000 or MORE eviction request.
@@trvman1 If there's no shops, and your kids can't go to school, it doesn't matter that the rent is free. It doesn't matter that you're rich, it only matters if you're elite. The great reset is coming.

Such a ferocious fire, sad to see another building gone, New York is seeing a lot of fires. Is that normal at this time. I understand with homeless and insurance etc. Stay safe. 🇮🇪🏤
New York is not only large but has a lot of 100 year old building built before comprehensive fire codes. There only time a building may seem fire code improvements is during a large building renovation. The other option is building demolition. The land in NYC is so valuable that land owners would rather let a building go deralect than tear it down. Vacant land gets taxed more than occupied land and that causes property owners to put off land demolition to vacant land.
Kind of neat to see where the companies were coming from. 1st alarm was only a couple blocks away. By the time the 6th alarm came in engines from 10 miles away in The Bronx were being sent.
A little late here but, it breaks my heart to see that beautiful architecture destroyed. At least the buildings were vacant and no one was hurt or killed.
great job job to the fdny brother putting out the fire i see the pretty rare the ladder pipe in use stay safe to the fdny brother an you guys to great video today
Churches have a lot of two things that will fuel fire: wood ( pews, etc) and paper ( missals, hymn books, etc). Plus, it was late at night so the fire could burn longer before it was discovered.
"That church" is - or was - the Middle Collegiate Church, a historical monument and centre of a 128 year old Protestant congregation located in East Village. Now destroyed by about 100%.
@@jurgenkuhlmann9194 thanks for the sparky remark, it wasn't enough to feel bad about the loss of "THAT CHURCH", I didn't know I needed to know the history, denomination and the names of the builders as well to show my regret for its loss... but I guess thanks for "that info"
@@johnbcountry9568 Hello again, I wouldn't have known myself. However, news of this fire had made it across the Pond, so I was quick to share the info I got - without any attempt to correct someone!

Bonjour bravo à vous, vous êtes l'élite. Bravo pour cette belle intervention c'est malheureux de voir un édifice religieux partir en fumée, cela me fait penser à notre cathédrale de Paris qui est partie aussi en fumée respect à vous 👍👍👏👏👏👏
I have seen it on Dutch television. Certanly about the church. Its a drama,in this unsure times where we miss so much spirituality. Blessings for the firedepartment...they do a good job😉
It would require the satellite to be in optimal position to do so, also the satellite deck gun is so powerful it can actually knock down the walls which can be a concern for a collapse. Let's go Eng 9/Satellite 1! 😀
why did this building not have fire sprinkler system. or another word fire suppression system. every building in the world should have them. they save lives
Sadly these beautiful older churches have been built to burn lots of flammable materials curtains pews carpeting wood with years of finishes applied. Large interior spaces for flow paths and then we are looking at a structure that has strict observance of the rules yet still there are fires that get started and are not discovered discovered until the smoke is seen coming out the vents. by then the interior is already an inferno. God Bless all who attended and dealt with this inferno I know firefighting is dangerous enough without the pandemic protocols that must also have been put in place on top of everything else. Seen my share of fires. Now my status is retired. Be safe, go home, and give your loved ones a hug, you and they deserve it.
Am I missing something here? Both structures were a total loss. Both had structural collapses inside. Both structures are physically compromised. What would be the advantage of putting more water on the fire? I thought they had the other exposures covered? Besides not knowing what the available water pressure was to them in the neighborhood? This is an old neighborhood, the water pipes were installed over a hundred years ago when foreseeable fire protection isn’t what it is today?
Why does FDNY use three types of truck companies (rear mounted stick, tillered stick, and tower ladder)? Why don't they go with just one type and how do they decide where the different types are stationed? Not a criticism, just wondering. Retied from a large CA dept. and we used all tiller rigs.
Everything has its positives. Tower ladders offer very secure rescue platforms and the ability to knock down fires like this one with pinpoint precision from above. Regular rearmounts offer easy access to and from the roof of the fire building. And tillers do the same, but are good for tight streets. FDNY has used this system for longer than any department save Boston, and as the largest in the US, it is the model not the outlier. I’m sure your department had its reasons for using only tillers, different things work better in different environments.
@@FDNYResponseVideos Like I said this was not a criticism, just curiosity. Just wondering how they decide on placement of the apparatus and what is the ratio between the rigs. Do they split them equally or are there more of one rig than another? Just because someone is the largest at something does not mean they are the model. Don't get me wrong FDNY is an exceptional great department, but they are not the model in all areas.
Short answer, different areas of the city, different buildings, different job functions, and different streets/neighborhoods, all require different aerial apparatus. Deployment of aerials & Tower ladders are geographical, Tillers are due to narrow street conditions.
Early arrival!? No you are mad late. It started as a fire on the first floor. Units were on scene and fighting the fire. Then all of a sudden idk what exactly happened. I’m gonna say pipe chase. But it went to flashover on 2nd floor
I like this there is always a lader track off in the distance with the lader extended not doing a thing just watching every one else work them selfs in to the ground . Politics you have to love it . 😇😇😇😇
Reason I asked was, there has been a lot of fires on Christian churches in Europe by the so called of the religion of peace aka (ISIS) the churches have been standing for about 200 years plus. Now all of a sudden they are on fire 3🤔🤔
I was thinking the same thing...lots of manpower and apparatus at risk in the collapse zone when both buildings are lost and the operation is completely defensive.
Why on earth do they all stand there for hours with a SCBA on there back when it's a defensive fire being fought with monitor s and water towers. Very odd.
At the 12:15 mark shows the scariest sight to be seen. It actually looked, and gave, the impression; the Evil that lived in that church was escaping. You couldn’t make that look with out using CGI at any other time. That was damn near an Award winning shot. What a Great video! And some really Beautiful Shots. Job Well done Gentlemen.
