Omg, what a treat!!!! 80s Era seagrave snorkel reserve 661 from the bucktown neighborhood in action in this day and age in a major city FD like Chicago. Hope it's still in service as this video is over 2 years old. Can only imagine what it's like rolling hot to a fire scene with its diesels rumbling and the Q and the red gumballs on top bright as ever. LOVE this!!!!!!! THANK you FOR UPLOADING
ITS IN GOOD NICK
Bob Billings ...easy Bob, its just a truck..😜🚒
Im willing to bet thats a 70's era Seagrave tower. 1980 they started using square headlights. Its possible its newer with a old cab put on it after a refurb or accident that they may have had but thats a stretch..
Watching that old snorkel get in position gives me chills, great video as usual.
Whoa, that spare Snorkel at 8:31 is ancient, yet it seems to be one of the best maintained trucks I've ever seen. Only truck here in NYC that they'd use from that era is a Mack CF Foam unit from the 70's. Aside from that, almost no apparatus from before the 2000's are still in service in any capacity, including spare and reserve apparatus.
Doran Baltus Chicago still has about 15 engine companies that are pre 2000 in front line service and 4 of the eight towers ladders are pre 2000 in front line service
Not many if any large cities have benefited from funding like FDNY has over the years. Most departments have to make apparatus last for 20-25-30 years.
that's the original squad 5 Seagraves all refurbished.
Awesome camera work and post production. It's good to see real professional coverage on RUclips.
Fought a fire similar to this in a downtown in 1997. A neighboring city department brought us "Snorkel 5". It was a 1960's International cabover Snorkel unit they had in storage but it was still very usable. Worked like a charm.
Our Department had an 85' snorkel like the reserve. I loved it. Just wish there was more shots of it in action.
Best damn fire video I have ever seen. Nice job. I've never seen a deluge truck in action - very cool as well as the Snorkel truck firing at near ground level. Very cool.
tnx
You could tell from the early going this fire was deep-seated and was headed throughout the structure and to the roof!!!
Excellent Work With The Big Guns By The CFD . Excellent Fire Ground Logistics . Thank You For Your Excellent Posts & Hard Work In Filming & Postings These Clips !
Great video , I'm surprised I haven't seen it until now . What a nasty , smoky , stinking fire this must have been , all those windows bricked over on the second floor couldn't have been a worse idea ! It was obvious there was no way anyone could have known where the main source was , you hear " fire in the basement , we're cutting a hole now " and the next thing you see is the glow over the roof and of course lots and lots of smoke , there wasn't even enough heat to carry the smoke up and away , those are some of the worst fires to fight , but Chicago's finest did a great job , the manpower and equipment used for this fire was amazing , glad you got this one on video !
it's nice these older fire videos are saved on RUclips, most of the VHS tapes our fire department took over the years were ruined with bad storage. Of course none of the new younger members give a crap about what we did 30 years ago, but we still do....
Great video.Those snorkel trucks are great.
Whether its dust or smoke , water is your best friend. A damp rag/ tie or even sock can help filter some of it while lowering the temperature of air you breathe in.( very important when in a building or area with fire as CO and Co2 dissolves in water)..Even the white smoke can be just a deadly as the dark black stuff....If you're ever in this situation , please do keep these things on your mind as you try to help or get away....
Excellent video!!
Defensive mode, hard to fight a fire you can't see the source... unless you're Superman. Great grab on the wild hose which could have easily broke several legs. Stay safe!
Love the CFD Mars Lights
That Ford F-350 [?] flat deck with the twin monitors is quite a thirsty unit to require a manifold with 8 supply inlets.
Very unusual appliance.
Not all of them need to be connected for it to operate. Just depends on what pressure you want to put on it.
Mark Fryer would that be big john, or little mo?
Neither, same concept different units, the chance of us ever seeing the full might of the deluge wagon like it was built for and intended is very slim now a days.
i love this channel,amazing footage,scanner audio.awesome job .
outstanding video, awesome to be able to watch. Thank you for spending the time doing this.
Excellent Coverage
Nice Video !
Great video...
Communication, Communication! Great job everyone, God Bless...
Does anybody know who supplies the stripped jacket a CFD member is wearing at 0:20 & 0:56
Dam that 85ft Snorkel Is Bad Ass I bet it has A Detroit in it The Best!! .I bet when they Started Throwing water From it The Sound of it working I bet is a site to behold !!
Anybody know what type & manufacture Squad 5 is (was)?
See how buckets on the end of ladders have a huge impact? Take notes west coast departments
Buckets offer a lot of pros, but also a lot of cons. For instance, a bucket can't get in a narrow space like a ladder can. However a bucket can be used to rescue someone(s) safer and more efficiently. All about the area.
Great snorkel and toweres smoke liiks great perfect video
2 great guys walking through at 8:23, Ken Herzlich & Peter Nickeas
Wow!!! at the 5:00 mark,..did the fire melt the traffic light?!!!!
I think it's a new left turn signal that isn't in use yet so it's covered
+tarence319 Plastic bags covering an inoperative signal (new or under repair)
What is the nozzle on squad 5?
I wonder if their legs get cramped being crouched like the one was
One massive fire.
8:39 Old skool snorkel, Love it
I thought they retired their old seagrave fire trucks
Do you happened to know about what year that Snorkel was, it was in fantastic condition, I bet fully raised, it go at least 15 stories........That is also a very interesting Ford Pickup trucfk that they converted to handle a deck gun, and if I saw correctly, on the back of it, there were 4 hose hookups, I have never seen a trucfk like that before......Great video.......
1985 or 87 snorkel, its 85 feet tall. As far as the deck gun ford, thats the deluge wagon, CFD got creative back in the 60s and took monitors off fire boats and attached them to jeeps and old army trucks, when fully fed they could shoot water 200 feet in the air. If i remember correctly the department had 6, now the vehicle you see in the video is the sole remaining reminder of a forgotten time.
@@pizzasubs 15 stories would be around 150 ft. straight up. Thats a 85 footer..
@@josephcastro9030 Seagraves went square headlights in 1980. I think its older, and had a major refurb at some point recent to this fire.. they were running E Ones in 85 and 87..
And the jacket being worn in the lower right corner of the screen at 01:46
"TOP SHELF " MY BROTHER ! 🇺🇲
Again/ Buildings Have No Sprinkler systems ' Great Job Chicago's Best '👍
They know how to put a lot of water on a fire, you have to like squad 5. Only FD that still use them that I know off.
Philadelphia still uses snorkels.
No. Philly still uses full sized snorkels with the platforms.
***** I think Philly still uses a few squirts as well. You don't see as many these days. They were really popular in the 70's and 80's especially for departments that couldn't afford a full-fledged aerial or snorkel.
The snorkels the city uses are manned baskets.
That's really not the radio lingo here in Chicago more of a New York saying
Did 225 call it a taxpayer type ? When giving description ?
+Stephen White In Chicago, that means residential over commercial. Unless it's a high-rise, in which case it's described as a high-rise :)
Hard to understand something. Decades ago when I went thru fire training we were taught to keep the nozzle moving to put water on as much area as possible. Yet the common theme I see in most of these videos is a steady stream of water pointing at the same place for the duration of the incident. It seems to me that if the nozzles were moving they could put water on more heat.
That’s not smart having no airpak on
