Hello, My name is Tiffany. To the Chief that was doing all of the directing, and to all the JFRD Firefighters. My friend and I watch and follow many of the people that film Fires and Rescue from around the country. This was the Best Orchestration of Any Fire that I have seen. It was very precise, top notch and well directed, In that everyone knew their job almost before it was told to them. It was a very commendable job to everyone participating. I live on the west side just about 4 miles from that location. Stay Safe and once again great job to everyone. Tiffany

@@thejfrd2490 You and I as firefighters know there is a point when nothing we do is going to save the fire structure. That is when we say containment to the original fire building is a save.

Heart broken for Ms Lisa, her staff and all the athletes, past and present! This was a safe place for our children. GU taught our kids so many life lessons through gymnastics. They love each and every child that walked through the doors. Talent or no talent they they gave all for each athlete, through love, encouragement, exceptional coaching and prayer! I cannot wait to see Ms Lisa rebuild! God will definitely provide her a path. Thankful no one was injured! #gustrong

For those who might not be aware when the conditions on the fireground go to hell The RIT is activated and they are the firefighters who are called on when the firefighters are in need of rescue usually right when the Mayday is called is right about the time the IC decides to go defensive exterior attack. We all know when the ladder pipes go up the building will be a parking lot.

Hello there I am new to ur channel you do really good videos and you capture the fire scene really good it is sad to see this place go up as it was a place were children went and learned gymnastics for nany years it upset me more to see this place getting destroyed by fire as my daughters went to gymnastics here in the uk when they were younger and they loved it there and learned alot and it brought back memories of the days they went to gymnastics hopefully the owner will be able to rebuild it for present and future generations to come I would also like to thank all of the fighters for doing what they could to safe this building

Yeah that's what I call fully involved, nothing you can really do to save the building. So you concentrate on your exposures and surround and drown it out. Thank you to all firefighters everywhere for protecting the citizens of your coverage area.

I really appreciate the presentation of these videos. The extended scene footage and radio traffic, rather than brief highlight clips, with the helpful footnotes clarifying details really give a good impression of the overall scene and all of the individual effort going on. Are "Fire" units (Fire 5, Fire 11) equivalent to the Battalion role found in many departments?

I have been in the fire service for 30 years, I just want to know why it's always straight streams. Even on master streams? If they would open the streams to at least a narrow fog, it would spread the coverage and turn the water droplets to steam expanding coverage and fire suppression. I have no idea why I'm seeing so many straight streams to fight these fires. By the way, I m the inventor of RIT

@thejfrd2490

Жыл бұрын

We use the straight streams for penetrating power...often, much of the roof is still in tact, or there are walls and such shielding the seat of the fire that we are trying to penetrate and the straight stream is much more effective to the application we need at that time.
