We all know what a fire truck looks like, and we all know how dangerous it is to be a firefighter! But what exactly is inside a fire engine and how many firefighters ride inside one? Thanks to the Oxnard Fire Department we were able to discover all the surprising features inside and outside a fire truck! We are going front winch to rear emergency hose on a brand new 2020 Pierce Fire Truck!
Special thanks to the Oxnard Police Department for putting us in touch with the Oxnard Fire Department! As well as the members of the DRAGG program for helping us make this episode possible.

"a fire engine like this will be in service about 13-15 years" *rural departments* "those are amateur numbers"
Our pumper was built in 1971 out of an international semi, still in service currently but soon to be replaced by a new build.
On my department (I live in New England, so we have really harsh winter's) we had an engine that was in service for 33 years. We still ran calls in it daily. Honestly I was sad to see it go.
We have a fleet of 70 trucks here in st. Louis. A majority of the front lines are 2000 smeal quints. They are just barely hanging on. As a fire mechanic it sure keeps me buissy
my local fire department has a converted military 1.5 ton 6x6 built in 1959
Kevin McDonnell yeah our reserve engine is 80s vintage, luckily for us we just got a tanker/engine brand spankin new
Firefighter: Need water!
Engineer: Hol on, lemme do sum quick mafs
"Erecting a water hose!"
Most of the time it's just a preset pressure. Almost never do you actually have to do math. Most of the computations for specific hoses are already done, so all you have to do is know how much hose of a certain size is being used, and what nozzle, then just pump at the pre-determined pressure on the chart. Takes longer to explain it than it does to look it up.
the easiest way to know if there's enough pressure is that they will ask for more over the radio... kinda easy
2+2 is 4. Quick mafs
Just send 140.

What Doug-score would a firetruck get?
Hahaha rip best comment
#papa doug should see this.
My dad was a firefighter for about 25 years and he worked his way up to Battalion Chief. I always loved climbing all over the fire trucks and fire engines. I thought I'd mention that our departments send 5 guys when responding to a call unless more are needed and most decent size cities use their trucks for about 5-10 years before they go on auction for cheap where rural departments pick them up.
in the city where I grew up they always responded with at least 5 units and a crew of 19 to any reported fire, activated fire alarm (without a fire being confirmed) etc.; Frontline apparatus were kept for 2 decades before they turn into reserve units, are handed over to the volunteer FD in the city or sold to another department in the country or abroad
Love his excitement when he starts the truck .. as a former engineer its always a rush when the truck comes to life and the lights are on.
I dont know why,but I would love to see a bumper to bumper on a train

I absolutely love the halligan tool (the old school east coast tool). It does more than just pry doors open if you need it to.
We use to make sure people know how to use it to open a car hood like a can, if the hood couldn't be opened other ways, and the jaws of life were already in use for something else.
I work for the company that makes the nozzle you used at the end! As well as many of the other parts relating to water movement on truck. Im a machinist at Kochek LLC and we make Fire Equipment. Was super neat to see some of the stuff I make on daily im action

Wait wait wait did they really bleep out the word Cockpit?
Mike Wojnarowski , how incredibly stupid some people have become. I suspect that the Indian tanks aren't called Indian tanks anymore by the idiotic PC crowd too.
William Sampson, pretty shitty, pretty irrelevant and pretty wrong. That word doesn't pertain to the devil's language, nor does it even remotely reference anything resembling it. Male birds are referred to as cocks. Do we eliminate language because someone coincidentally uses words or letters to mean something vulgar or obscene? Do we abolish shittah and many other words that just happen to contain a sequence of letters used in other words that others may not like? It isn't obscene. They word gay means happy, but modern connotations have turned it to something else entirely, sometimes seen as inflammatory. The word niggard stems from the 14th century and has absolutely nothing to do with skin color, but try using it publicly today and see what happens. The word cockpit is a 16th century nautical term and has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with male anatomy or any other 'unsavory' definition. RUclips's algorithm isn't protecting us from obscenity, the 'devil's language', or any other impropriety. It's attempting to alter the English language because someone is too ignorant to know what word definitions are. It's a group of idiots trying to reshape society in their own uneducated and misplaced vision. They're stupid assholes. Let them censor that.

hmmmm yes the water is made out of water here.
Front end generally uses single tire. Becuase the weight of everything is on the rear axel, there's generally dual wheels so that if one fails there's a backup. If you have catastrophic tire failure, then it's call the mechanic and a heavy wrecker

I'm curious... what did they get wrong?
If you can get your hands on a fire truck, how hard is it to find a firefighter to explain basic shit?
@@cybersquire well probably most importantly that is not a fire truck, that is a fire engine. And very rarely do you have only 3 people on an engine. Also the engineer almost always stays with the engine. Oh and there is no way in hell that department is keeping that engine for 10-15 years. Maybe 5... Maybe... But yeah that's a couple things.
Christian Towse almost all civilians use engine and truck interchangeably, that's not gonna change. So many departments run with 3 on an engine. Many departments keep rigs for more than 10 years. We have 20 year old trucks and engines (we need more funding).
this honestly seems like the most fun bumper to bumper they’ve done and the editing is just so good dude, give this editor a raise
What a shocker. I have spent my entire life living in Oxnard or Port Hueneme Ca. Awesome that you did this segment in Oxnard.
Excellen job going over the engine dude! A little detail but important is that SCBAs carry air at normal atmospheric mixtures not concentrated oxygen so that when in a fire they aren't carrying a giant explosive on their back. The oxygen tanks have green paint/label on them and have a different valve.
In my department they are not called tanks either they are called cylinders and you’ll get called out for calling them anything different
Oxygen isn't explosive

13:54 best part
I had a very close friend who is a firefighter and he gave us a tour of his Firehouse. That included the regular fire truck as well as the ladder truck that was really cool, my daughter couldn't stop smiling from ear-to-ear and she was made honorary firefighter of the day. There was a woman firefighter at the station and my daughter says she wants to be just like her when she grows up. I told Melody that she was a positive role model for girls for breaking into the boys club and I told my daughter that you can be anything you want as long as you put your mind to it and don't let no one tell you you can't do it. 😊😉🚒
Just wanna say thanks to the firefighters who are willing to risk there lives for others.
Our town might be a bit rural, we have old Bill who has a lawn tractor that pulls a small wagon with a 5 gallon Lowe's blue bucket full of water and a bag of sand in another bucket.
He makes his own siren sound with his mouth.
As most homes are 1 to 2 miles away from eachother he rarely gets to the fire in time to do anything about it, but his house (also known as Bill's fire department) hasn't burned down in a little ovet 4 years now.
Having been a volunteer for 20 years, you did a pretty good job for probably your first time with an apparatus.
I have so much respect for firefighters. Back when I delivered for Domino’s I did this massive order to my local fire station, and it was seriously SO COOL. The building was massive and made of brick, super clean and spacious, and there were medals and plaques on the walls along with all sort of firefighting paraphernalia. People were walking around with so much purpose. Everyone was completely jacked and looked like they could each single-handedly lift a firetruck with their bare hands. They were some of the nicest people I’ve ever met, they laughed with each other and greeted people as they walked in like they were all best bros. It felt like a totally different world, one far better than the one the rest of us live in. The best part of all this is that I am not exaggerating even the slightest bit. (Except the part about lifting a firetruck, that’s a bit of hyperbole. But just a bit)
The guy I delivered the pizza to joked that his coworkers would probably be disappointed that he wasn’t grilling steaks for his day to make everyone lunch. (Honestly, if I was a firefighter I’d expect to be eating grilled food each and every day)
I don’t remember ever fantasizing about being a firefighter when I was a kid, but I can definitely see why so many people do: they’re so respectable, so heroic, and so awesome. They truly are the real heroes in our communities.
“Picks up adapter”
*This looks expensive*
Are they?
MidgetMan 420 pretty sure
MidgetMan 420 nah, kissimmee Fire EMT here, most things are very expensive on the engine and rescues (Stryker stretchers cost 60-70k, lifepak 15 defibrillators are around 40k) but adapters are probably maybe $200 to be honest
Uh 200$ for an adapter
Nah, pretty cheap 😂
@@PacificoAyala321 in comparison to a majority of everything else, yes very cheap. The married set of haligan and flathead axe was around $350 at the cheaper ends.
Thanks for showing this, ive always wondered what was in all of those compartments and what all the other things did. Really educational stuff
My cousin is a firefighter in New Jersey and he is a driver, his department's engines have on board water for a couple of minutes of fighting. They also have an extra water level gauge on both sides behind the rear doors on the cab. It is a bank of 4 big lights that when on are Blue, Green, Yellow, Red (I think, it has been a couple of years since I've seen it) and instead of the more accurate bank of lights on the driver's side panel. These lights can be seen from a distance by anybody. I find it a neat concept because they use it to gauge how much time they have before they all run out of water in the on board tank before they guy finding a water source starts getting yelled at. This is because sometimes they are in an area that has no access to water (like a car fire on side of the highway) my cousin loves it.
In my hometown, most of the firefighters are trained paramedics.
Also I’d like to add is rural areas most volunteer first responders are trained on how to use the pumps and drive as there just isn’t as many firefighters on duty to man all trucks if needed
true; Can't imagine how many departments roll out with under-staffed apparatus in the USA as there are only 1.1. million fire-fighters in the truely enormous country
@@EnjoyFirefighting that baffled me, we have over a million fire-fighters is Germany and only 30k of them are non volunteers for 80 million people. I would never in my life go without someone else into a burning building, we always have 6 people (Captain, Engineer, 2 Fighter and 2 hose men that switch with the fighters after 30min) on an engine and have room for 8. Although recently it got kind off awkward when 80 men arrived with 7 engines.

Hey man, love the Donut media channel. You did a great job presenting this. Yeah, every pumper at every station (even in the same department!!!) is different! And yes, we only have 3 people on an apparatus, normally. Every member of the fire department works as a support crew for the firefighter in the back seat to get him what he needs to put out fire or save people, and the Captain maneuvers the firefighter helping him get the job done. Most firefighters also drive, eventually.

@@barsoap5179 A sledgehammer and halligan is called "Heavy Irons", look it up ;)
Back when they used to hang off the back of the truck, that firefighter had a very important job. As they approached the fire, the driver would stop next to the nearest fire hydrant. The firefighter would grab the end of the 5" suction line and wrap it around the hydrant. the driver would then continue to the fire scene, with the hose line sliding out and dropping to the street. When the truck stopped, the firefighter would connect the line to the hydrant and wait for the engineer to signal him to open the hydrant valve. Some trucks had the suction line already connected, so water fed directly into the pumper. Watched them practice this many times; Dad was a city firefighter for 30 years. Thanks for the video!
Pure joy in his face when he fired it up.
Most surprising feature of a fire truck would be: if it can MAKE fire
LOTTERY GUY [Subscribers take Half of Winning] well actually many forest service members have controlled burns to help the environment
It creates combustion in the engine 🤔
Bro you gotta get out and read Fahrenheit 451
They do have survival stuff
Opposite daaaaaay
The first two tools you picked up are called "the irons"
ioletsgo jarhead they are also called a married pair
Quess they are made of aluminium
ioletsgo jarhead the one other than the axe is called a halligan bar
@@jessecarpenter6434 in england we call it the hooligan tool :D
This has to be one of my fav videos from you guys. And I feel you, I once got inside an airport 8x8 fire truck, and it was amazing ! And holy crap that thing was a little plant in itself ! 🥰🥰
Ok, I must give some background I am from San Diego, CA and this is an interesting video that highlights firefighting as a profession. In my city, we on an engine we have a crew of 4 people and 4 on the truck as well. Most of the video was good like the air horn on the pump panel to notify for defensive operations, and the set of irons (an axe and halligan tool married together). But in Europe, they have 6 people on an engine and that would include an engineer, captain, attack section leader, attack section, water section leader, and water section. Overall the video was very good but missed a lot to the point I had to post this comment for my well-being and for educating the public thank you very much if you read this all.
across Europe there are many different tactics, even within a country there might be different approaches.
You might see up to a crew of 9 on a German Engine, while there might be only a crew of 3 on a Norwegian Engine. At the same time some countries have seperate apparatus for exterior and interior attacks
I live in Australia... AND THE ENTIRE COUNTRY IS ON FIRE
Now USA is
Coming from a firefighter.. this has a fair bit of inaccuracy.
That is kind of to be expected. There is a not of technical knowledge that goes into the job.
That being said, I did cringe at him saying the 5" supply line only pumps 250 GPM lol.
Benjamin Weisman thank you from another firefighter
From another firefighter, maybe so, but I suppose it gets the point across
Beginning with that's not a fire truck but a fire engine...
Can we get some corrections from the real firefighters please.... For science
Love watching you genuine smile come through brother
So cute how happy he is
Since it’s known as “Pumper”
You guys missed the perfect chance for *Pumper to Pumper*
😂😂
“Old school easy coast thing” is called a halligan. Its a firefighter’s best friend. And depending on if it’s volunteer or professional, the amount of people in the truck can change, most with a capacity of 10
Addapp “old school east coast thing” well he’s not wrong
Do west coast people just no use a halligan?
Also, what fire truck you using? We can barely fit the standard 6 in ours.
TurtleSauceGaming Yes. Us on the west cost (Oregon) use our beloved Irons. And we have 5 seats on our main engine at my station so I don’t know where people are getting these numbers. That’s crazy to me.
I used to be accountable for a set of tools including one of those, but we always called them "hooligan tools".
10?! What kinda truck you riding in? Most is usually 6 or 8 without an inner compartment
I used to live in Oxnard… had no idea it was going to be Oxnard before watching and I just got so much nostalgia
I been binging on donut for a few day and this is one of the most interesting videos yet! Keep em coming donut! 🍩
