los Angeles fire department: experts in containment of homeless encampment fires that are like mini brushfires

Thank you. Nice to see a Response with the fire before first Arrival.

Can we call it a controlled burn and let it clean out the culvert?

No,because controlled burns can turn into wildfires in a matter of seconds.

@@bouffant-girl The irony of your statement has surpassed your comprehension of effective fire control. Great work. I, too, think you should store oily rags and gas cans in your garage until one day there is small cigarette fire. See how that works out for ya.....

Great work brother as usual💯💯

I see so many videos like this and then am amazed folks complain when homeless encampments are razed and cleaned up

It's sad but with California being such a fire risk and the issues these encampments cause, it has to be done.

In my neighborhood, homeless people move into empty houses, start fires to keep warm, often burning down the house and neighboring properties.

Liar!

Good “sense of urgency” even though this wasn’t a high value occupancy or life hazard. From “wheels stop” to water on the fire, less than one minute. I’ve seen too many videos of fire departments taking their sweet time about stretching a line, charging it, and putting out the fire.

With a vegetation fire, you have to move as quickly and safely as possible to get water and line dug,because if the wind picks up or changes,things can go very bad very quickly!

You have to take into account this fire had conditions that could have ended a lot worse with all that dry brush everywhere. It doesn't take an awful a lot of water for the initial attack but you have to make sure you get every single hot spot

Bless Excellent. Keep’em coming. 😊

I actually reported this fire to 911 while driving the 405!

What a disgrace to dump rubbish like that. It seems to be common problem in the UK too despite having free domestic tipping points. The problem seems to by fly by night house collection and removal shysters.

That is not the problem in places like LA of SF. These are homeless encampments. The occupants just collect all the rubish as posessions. It is a chronic mental health disease epidemic and politicans do nothing about it because the homeless don't vote and the politicians don't live in the areas the blight impacts. They are too busy pretending this does not exist and instead focus on entertaining elites on private vineyard estates hundreds of miles from the problem.

It's a homeless encampment. You're not wrong that it's a dump, but it's a dump built to live in and California allows it basically everywhere. They seem to literally sleep and eat next to their trash. Fires are common due to the unsafe cooking methods using open flames, etc in combination with smoking, rampant drug use and other factors.

@@robynperdieu3434 You must be a Californian in denial. You guys legalized or decriminalized just about every drug out there; combined with numerous other horrible laws or removal of laws, now you have a massive community of homeless zombies looking to do anything for their next hit. Look up the "Fentanyl Crawl" and rise in thefts of catalytic converters in California. A lot of them either voluntarily or involuntarily end up hooked on fentanyl getting pumped in from China. Unfortunately, I have to see it because I have family that live there; they would like to move but are too old. The rest of the country doesn't have homeless encampments at every overpass, spare parking lot, parks and natural areas. They also don't have people openly using drugs in public.

I searched "getting ice cream in traffic" and this is where ive ended up

Great mutual aid 👍🚒

I would hate to put out fire in homeless encampment; have to watch out for needles, human waste…etc

Excellent video! A great variety of shots from different positions and edited really well.

Should have let it burn all that garbage. Call it a controlled burn for safety.

This is so common there. Very frustrating. Such ignorant HOMELESS people STILL don't get the picture: YOU'RE IN A HIGH FIRE DANGER AREA. NO FIRES OF ANY TYPE!! Now, you have no "Home". THERE, anyway.

Sad to see those CLOWN Helmets !

That's like putting out round hay bails. A pain in the butt.

Honestly, I would had created a barrier and let all that dry burn just prevent it from going further down otherwise that homeless camp will continue starting fires.

Typical in LA now, a homeless encampment 🔥 fire. With this bone dry grass and brush, it don't take much for one to get going.

Reminds me of homeless camp fires in slo.

That fire, no. Can it happen, yes. One example was in Atlanta back maybe 5 years ago (maybe longer), I believe part of the highway collapsed. And the road was severely damaged. But that was a huge fire fueled by propane.

glad to see that no one came out shooting at the firefighters

Something needs to be done about the homeless situation. They should be removed from all cities and taken to designated areas where they are allowed to live or camp.

By what authority?

Do they offer fire insurance?

the guy is hardly trying to extinguish the fire, I've noticed that in other videos with some other firemen. not big enough fire.

That new helmet style just doesn't look right in SoCal

An old fireman's hat by the fire. Lol

It's quite obvious this dept has plenty of experience putting encampment fires out. I don't know why some of the homeless have so much shit and garbage lying around and you'd think you'd be a lot more careful when you do. With only tank water at first you have to be damn careful with what you do. It doesn't last very long. My biggest issue, however, is who in the hell is going to clean that place out? I can't stand people who leave a bunch of their shit lying around, especially when it catches on fire

That new all electric engine should be going into service soon, correct? I hope you get a bunch of videos of them responding and operating!

wonder how much that effort cost the tax payers?
