Why does it take a whole day to begin shutting off the valves? And why does it take a whole day to figure out whose pipeline it is and what is burning? That could have been a huge disaster.
and how was the FBI so quick to say its not terrorist related, when the person in the car wasnt even identified yet..? I seen somewhere there's a lawsuit with the company Involved
Stop listening to people that doesn’t understand pipelines, every if you shut valves off the fire won’t stop until the product in that section that was damage is burned off into atmosphere
News media said the valves were tuned off yesterday, here they say not shut off yet. This is why the news media can't be trusted and why I know to go against the news media and vote for Donald John Trump.
It's a 25 mile segment of a y-grade line. Imagine a propane tank that you could buy from HEB, but instead of being 1.5ft long, it's 25 miles long and under 5-10x more pressure. As the pipeline loses pressure the flow rate will decrease along with the burn rate and ultimately extend the time required for the pipeline to empty. The world's largest butane lighter was not on my 2024 bingo card.
Guv Abbott will assure the business owners - pals from Dallas - that his Texas law only requires $1 million insuance coverage. Look at what West, Texas illegally overloaded fertilizer factory got away with - over 200 buildings destroyed, dozens dead, hundred injured. The city's middle school building wiped out. "Your insurance company only pays $1 million. Taxpapers pick up the new schooling."
Is there a missing person report filed for the driver of the vehicle yet??? How could this happen in the middle of the day and police and city officials seem to be completely clueless about the driver of the vehicle? In fact I’m not sure if the police are aware even now that a vehicle hit the valve. Have they interviewed the couple who appear to be the only ones who witnessed this?
LOL Burning into the second night and we still don’t know who the driver is or if they’re dead or alive lol oh my goodness But they could let us know right away that it was not a terroristic threat I mean, are we kidding ourselves right now trying to tell me we can’t figure out who that vehicle belongs to Like there’s cameras It’s so funny how everybody’s focusing on this all the media, but this just happened in Oklahoma a few days ago and three people who worked at the plant actually got hurt and this exact same accident has happened with this exact same company with the car running into a pipeline just at the beginning of the year. But nobody seem to cover the eight or nine other incidences that have happened all over Texas within the last 2 to 4 weeks How convenient for Crappy administration as long as we’re all looking the other way right couldn’t find out who brought drugs into the White House either right gotta be kidding me what a joke
FYI... Red Adair did NOT work on putting out natural gas pipeline fires. Red Adair was an expert extinguishing and capping oil well blowouts. Red Adair died in 2004. The company he founded, Boots & Coots, was sold to Halliburton in 2010.
"It looked like the vehicle was going to park but then, going straight without stopping and crashed into that valve." Has anyone reported a missing person in the last 48 hours?
The car appears to have backed up and turned sideways. They crashed into the valve assembly, tore it off and dragged for ?? 50 feet ?? outside of the gates. Then the SUV turned to start a backup and exit maneauver.
@@firehosediy7507 I haven't heard that... in Day 1's aerial video, there was a lack of tracks coming from (or to) the valve-location. But I didn't know that vehicle made contract. I only remember the backup-and-turn-around tracks to place it in the current location. I looked like he pulled up to the gate and backed away. But now, I realize the gates were opened (blown? pushed and pulled back out? Unhitched intentionally and opened?) and that large valve assemble is sitting in the middle of the 'driveway'. And the front hood looks bashed in, as if it struck the valve assembly, and the car pulled it back with them. But was a ground blast sufficient to wipe out tire-tracks when the car appears rather unscortched. We don't see blow-out streaks from the well-head - like I'd expect to see. Then again, we've never see highest quality footage of ground-marks.
Boots & Coots never worked on natural gas pipelines. They worked on crude oil wellhead blowouts. They were sold to Halliburton in 2010 after Red Adair died in 2004
More than likely passed away immediately when the pipeline blew. Houses shook, power went out, playground near by melted...that was an intense blow. Common sense says that efforts to try to save the person would be unsuccessful and put firefighters lives at risk for an impossible rescue effort would not be ideal. Firefighters are already in danger. You have no idea.
it's like Pasadena but at ground level.. o.O should be evacuating every house along the pipeline in case it backdrafts and blows up some other block... and is this just another way to get rid of their toxic waste costing a lot less and maybe even being reimbursed by the insurance on the car?
@@HotInTexas if the pressure coming out drops enough it can track back into the pipeline.. and I am only suggesting it could happen, not that it will.. same sort of thing could happen to an Acetylene tank used by welders...
I am never amazed at the number of armchair pipeline engineers and experts post comments on videos like this. Reminds me of just how dumbed down our society has become.
Talk about "border" protection.. Just a chain link fence "protected" this area. Look at the damage!!!! Could have easily been prevented- wonder how many more are out there that are this vulnerable-Due to a innocent accident (Bless the person who died) Immagine what terrorists could do on a wide scale???

@@LinoR11yes, but how much gas is in that pipeline between valves? it's been over 24 hours ffs

This was done on purpose
It seems like that pipeline is very vulnerable. You would think politicians would be screaming for an investigation.

pretty sure there is nothing left of the person driving that SUV into the valve after all that heat

Oh yeah and they're probably going to raise prices too.
How is the eastside fence still standing if a car crashed though it from the west?
Good job putting industrial to residential
Is it still burning?
"It looked like the vehicle was going to park but then, going straight without stopping and crashed into that valve."
Has anyone reported a missing person in the last 48 hours?
Glad no injuries.
yo lol, they havent verified, but someone was in that SUV that hit the pipeline.... RIP.
Where’s Red Adair?!
Why people fight gas pipelines in their neighborhoods, running through their property.
Those pipelines were there long before the houses genius.
How many more of these above ground valves are there in Texas ?
The car appears to have backed up and turned sideways. They crashed into the valve assembly, tore it off and dragged for ?? 50 feet ?? outside of the gates. Then the SUV turned to start a backup and exit maneauver.
I heard something about the vehicle going ten feet in the air, so I think it was thrown back away. Kind of strange that it landed upright.

Call Boots and Coots
Boots & Coots never worked on natural gas pipelines.
They worked on crude oil wellhead blowouts.
They were sold to Halliburton in 2010 after Red Adair died in 2004
Much smaller 👍🏻
That's a lame company.
Go get the lady from the car, geez
Too hot and dangerous.
The person in that car is ashes. The fire is about 1,400°F. Not happening.
There's likely little, if anything, left of her, God rest her soul.

Do balloons leaking air backdraft?
@@HotInTexas balloons don't have structural integrity like a pipeline does.. It could create a vacuum in a pipeline but not a balloon...
@@bikinglikebecker
As long as the gas is flowing out of the pipeline there is no way for oxygen to enter which is what causes a back draft to occur.
@@HotInTexas if the pressure coming out drops enough it can track back into the pipeline.. and I am only suggesting it could happen, not that it will.. same sort of thing could happen to an Acetylene tank used by welders...

I'm quite sure the company engineers have the situation under control.

You should have a good idea. You probably drive by many everyday. Just start being observant
More misinformation
No shutoff valves???
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
There is……
I see alot of cars with disability plates♿ every first and fifteenth of the month......
Everything is fine its just benzene
