Police rescue neighbours as house destroyed by fire in Caernarfon North Wales. Not the norm for this channel but I felt it was worth sharing, there were no injuries but damage was severe.
So glad everyone was rescued by your police but very sorry for homeowners' loss of their home. We had a tour of Caernarfon just about one year ago although I'm sure we didn't see this particular house. The fact that we were so recently there made the impact greater because Caenarfon and everyplace we visited in Wales is lovely. Just wish the economy could get better for folks there.
Have to say very well done too the police for rushing in and rescuing the neighbours very brave thing to do. And to the girl who was on the phone to her mum I don't ghink you'd be laughing if it was your house!!!
@@briankelly5816 Here in the UK, the party wall between houses can withstand heavy fire for one hour. In reality, it is nearer to three hours. Adjoining houses are evacuated only due to the risk of smoke inhalation or the possibility of a gas explosion.
In 1997 my neighbours house suffered a fire and my neighbour, Eleanor Cook, to the other side of me was caught laughing and joking about it on a camcorder recording of the event. She shouted to her husband, Alan, "go get some tetties Alan and we'll do some baked tetties". Next day I overheard her saying to Ronnie & Cathy how sad and upsetting it was to her family watching their home go up in flames. Some people are multi-faced and basically evil.
Indeed they are but if shoe was on the other end she wouldn't be laughing and wouldn't like others laughing at her house burning. I hope you and your family were ok
I get the impression from the way they were talking that it had been empty for some time and was not lived in - boarded up windows etc so was probably a target for vandals. Don’t think she meant it in a malicious way.
jesus, my dad lived in england some parts of his life. been to wales sometimes. what caused the fire? Did a pet turn on a stove and there was something on it?

Why had the fire got such a hold and almost burnt itself out before the fire brigade turned up. For the people criticizing the girl laughing it can be a reaction to shock. I'd be more concerned as why it took 7 mins on this video for the fire brigade to arrive.
@@tonyjones9442They're a volunteer brigade. Their on-scene time was very good for a vol brigade. The international standard for a 24/7 fire brigade is 7.7 minutes on scene from the time of call.
@@PeterNichtlustig0815 still most British houses made of cardboard especially the new builds. The old ones are better then any newly build. At least we aren’t American with houses made from basically tracing paper.
Iit’s hard to tell, what with the camera person being transfixed by smoke. But going by sound alone, I’d say yes... Because North Wales fire engines all have Martinshorns sirens fitted, whereas their police and ambulance vehicles have the electronic woo woo jobbies fitted.
Yes the fire was mainly to the rear of the property, I could not get to the rear as the police were restricting movement. The footage I got was the best I could get.
3 to 5 minutes from time of call the West Mids fire service achieve, the bonus of a urban are I suppose. You'd be dead if you was trapped in that house, 8 mins before first appliance and thats from start of recording and not from start of fire. Possibly retained firefighters so it can take upto 5 minutes for them to leave station.
Thanks for watching and commenting. You are absolutely correct, the tenant of the property was upstairs when the fire broke out and made it down the stairs and out of the door only seconds before the landing was consumed by the fire, so yes had she have counting on rescue by the fire service they would have been too late. I will however point out that had the outcome been different I would not have uploaded the video, thankfully everybody was fine, property can be replaced, lives cant.
This isnt a big city and as others have said the local fire station is crewed by On Call Firefighters outside of the hours 12.00-22.00 . They have to get to the station from home first .
Thats no fire mun.... thats my new open hearth from The Range. Id be upset too if I lived next door...... I mean, how can I get my head down for a bit with all that fucking noise out there
How come it took the fire brigade so long to arrive and put water on the fire ? I mean it’s 8:24 in the video but the house is already well alight as the video footage begins, so the fire brigade must have been called before the footage starts, which means they took even longer to arrive !
The only local fire stations are volunteers. They take time to get to the station. Then turn out. Theres few fully manned stations located in bigger towns and cities. This isnt new york where 30 engines turn out for an e bike fire. This is the real world.
How do you know the fire brigade was called before the footage starts? It's an interesting syndrome: dozens of onlookers all assuming someone else has called the fire brigade when in fact nobody has.
@@sam3308 ok the time it took for the call to be called in , dispatch time , traffic , getting in gear , possible response time to station , maybe they are on call guys who respond to the station when paged ? Or they may have been on the way back from another call. 7 minutes still is not terrible.
The crew of the station were oncall at the time so they were at home etc, they have to respond to the station in 5 minutes and then get changed and get out on the appliance to the job. the station is only manned 12-10pm
Was that islamic migrants living there ? , it seems to be common for them to burn down any accomodation that they dont like , its happening weekly all over the uk as they demand semi detached houses in nice areas
Yes it took some time for them to arrive and although the fire had died in intensity it was still far from out. They were on scene for about 5 hours plus they were called back the following morning when the fire reignited, they were on scene for a further 3 hours pulling out loft insulation that had ignited and dampening down further.
I know right, from the looks of it, the streets are either Ysgubor Goch or Caer Saint, or anywhere in Maes Barcer, and the fire station is incredibly close aswell, it’s like a two minute walk just to get there if you live in Maes Barcer
Probably an “on-call” station that isn’t crewed full time, which is common place in the UK. Firefighters alerted by pager, respond to the station from home or workplace, that can take 5-6mins, don PPE and turnout.
@@beckytwister01 The Fire Station at Caernarfon is Day Crewed between Midday & 10pm and On Call the rest of the time, as the fire occurred at 9.30am on a Sunday it would have been the On Call crew attending, they have to paged in from Home or Work and travel to the station, get kitted up and then drive to the incident. They have 5 minutes to turn out from the time they are called so really they were there quite quickly.
Some people don’t understand the on call firefighter situation. On call firefighters respond via a pager which alerts them to get to the station can take five mins to get to station depending on traffic then don PPE and leave. It’s just as frustrating for the firefighters who want to get there quicker. Overall if it wasn’t for on call firefighters in small communities we would be waiting longer for pumps to arrive from wholetime stations in bigger communities
The fire personnel can’t put on their seat belts properly, plus it isn’t safe to because if they were to get into a accident they would be thrown with all the weight on them breaking possibly their back or necks, here is a example for you try taking the biggest back pack filling it with can goods and putting it on in your vehicle and putting on your seat belt, I have seen a accident where seat belts weren’t used and unfortunately there someone was seriously injured and wasn’t thought to have made it, after spending many months in hospital he had to learn to walk again but never returned to work, I remember this very clearly because it happened around my Birthday a few years ago
firefighters dont just run into a burning building for no reason, if occupants are accounted for then a more thorough plan will be made to either save the building or rpevent spread to a neighbour. Believe it or not, they actually form this strategy whislt standing outside assesing the situation rather than from the inside of a burning building.
@@nick6584 if this is true then they need to do some more training. Here in our county in Tennessee , a house fire is treated as occupied until we complete our search. It’s happened several time where the home owner said everyone is out only to fine more occupants inside. Get off the truck packed up , stretch a line and get that primary search done fast.
@@michaelmoran2059 think you will find the first person around the back was a fire fighter giving it a good dose of looking at, twice he did this, then the incident commander, recognised by their tabard did the same.
@@darrenguest7284 And? Regardless of who you are, 1 way or the other a risk assessment is needed. The 'firefighter' at the start could be a sub officer. White hat a scene commander or station officer. Nobody runs around a building with hoses unless you're 100% know you will need it otherwise you're just running around aimlessly with a branch.
God, i dont know if im sick or not watching these videos but it opens your eyes to what crap that people go through, i hope everyone was ok.
Yes nobody was injured but the contents was a total loss.

There life was hardly in danger going into a house not on fire
@@robertcrofts2108 so your saying no fire without smoke DOH!

Seems to be life these days unfortunately.
Sometimes laughing & joking can be a shock reaction. It does not mean they do not genuinely feel for their neighbours.
Indeed they are but if shoe was on the other end she wouldn't be laughing and wouldn't like others laughing at her house burning. I hope you and your family were ok
Some people have no morals.
the girl laughing on the phone to her mum was unbelievable. pretty sure if that was your house it wouldnt be amusing, would it?
I get the impression from the way they were talking that it had been empty for some time and was not lived in - boarded up windows etc so was probably a target for vandals. Don’t think she meant it in a malicious way.
@@tjfSIM if thats the case then thats fine lol
Could have been a 'nervous laugh'
Incorrect, the house was occupied and the occupants manages to escape safely.
Some girls are only mental age 12 .That's as far as they developed.
To the girl laughing on the phone. It’s not a circus. Have some respect. You Pratt
Every home owners nightmare
Not mine, I'm well insured😁😁

Can someone give the cameraman a tripod?
yeah, i feel seasick from watching !🤢
I didnt want a tripod, wanted to be mobile in case I had chance to get to the rear of the house/
Oh no hope everyone is safe and well.
I hope everyone was fine after this incident, my thoughts are with you all
Yes everybody was fine although somewhat shook up.
Absolutely devastating for those involved. Such a thing is always on my mind - it will change your life forever.
Yes it is something we should all be aware of, it can happen to any of us.
jesus, my dad lived in england some parts of his life. been to wales sometimes. what caused the fire? Did a pet turn on a stove and there was something on it?
Hope everyone is okay
Fire department turns up at the end of the video ,delays due to slow moving traffic in 20mph zone all the way from the fire station 😂
Those Brits can put out a fire like it's nothing. Great job mates!!!!! You guys are the best from America!!!!
Oh I’m glad it wasn’t your house! But still a sad thing for those who lived there…👍🏻🥰🦊
So so upsetting hope whoever was involved got out safely 😔
Interesting to watch.
Would have liked video from the other side since the fire there seems more intense.
So would I, the fire at the rear was very intense but the police were not allowing us to move.
Agreed.
I would have loved to get there but the police blocked access.

I hope no one was sad one time this year there was a house fire the house only had smoke damage it’s was close
English please??
I Literally Live Like 2 Minutes From That Street And I Walked Passed With My Freind And Its Traumatising
Its Just A Wood Site With Black From The Smoke All Over
would of liked it to finish..but good enough thanks.:)

Do you think there is a fire station on every corner?
@firstman9273 there is around that corner!!! Caernarfon has a fire station and the town itself is only a few square miles.
@@tonyjones9442They're a volunteer brigade. Their on-scene time was very good for a vol brigade. The international standard for a 24/7 fire brigade is 7.7 minutes on scene from the time of call.
How did it start?
No idea, it is under investigation but the local feeling is that it was deliberate.
Looks like that building has fire walls.
It is a european house. It´s not made out of wood you know.
@@PeterNichtlustig0815 still most British houses made of cardboard especially the new builds. The old ones are better then any newly build. At least we aren’t American with houses made from basically tracing paper.
Hope everyone is ok
Yes no injuries but the neighbours were disrupted for a week or two.
creepy how the door closed itself..
I think that was probably the heat and airflow from the rear caused that.
that smoke alarm was a bit late
What happened to Jones the fireman was it his day off.
Why are you filming the sky?
why did someone use a water hose in the garden and start putting out the fire
Trist iawn bechod🥺
It’s like fireman Sam IRL
Was that the first Engine to arrive at 7:14?..
Iit’s hard to tell, what with the camera person being transfixed by smoke. But going by sound alone, I’d say yes... Because North Wales fire engines all have Martinshorns sirens fitted, whereas their police and ambulance vehicles have the electronic woo woo jobbies fitted.
@@YelpBullhorn I like the horns better than the sirens. As I believe they still use in Germany and France.
By the time the firemen get there it had nearly put itself out
With stone built houses, it is normally only the contents that burn.
@@wilsjane I was thinking that
My worst nightmare is this.
Yes mine too, as a family we are aware that it is a real risk and take all precautions including planning of escape routes.
THAT WAS UPLOADED ON MY BIRTHDAY 😱
I dont think theres supposed to be smoke coming out the house
Flow path...shut the door when first leaving the house
"police rescue neighbours because I stood here like a plum filming it rather than make myself useful"
Doesn't look like a holiday home. 🤣
It isnt, it is a family home, or at least was.
Proberly a cannibis farm inside...the girl on the phone nearly gave it away
No comment.
All we are looking at is the smoke nothing else ..
Yes the fire was mainly to the rear of the property, I could not get to the rear as the police were restricting movement. The footage I got was the best I could get.
The lady shouts do you want me to move my car no mrs lol mean while fire service still on way from london 😂😂
🙏🙏🇺🇸🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Why don't the people watching knock on peoes doors not very neighbourly
Nothing you can really do is just watch 😭
Oh bloody heck what happened there 😳😳😳😳so sorry
Oh no 😟
What caused the fire
No idea, it is under investigation but the local feeling is that it was deliberate.
House in middle is mine
Well I guess you saw it all as well
The smoke alarm was a little late.
I want my house back

Whats taking the fire engines so long to get there,hope no1 was hurt in this fire,its so sad and heartbreaking 💔 😢
I'ts the reult of not wanting to pay for full time firefighters.
that house is acually close to mine👁👄👁
Oh that means you are near me too.
@@explorationwales2389 Oh cool
If the door closed then it will be a major thing

A little slow I agree.

Why are people laughing

It took the fire brigade a full 7:14 minutes to arrive in the film, not counting the rest of the time, hope the fire brigade here is not as slow!
That’s not slow, depending on how far from the home their station is.
The fire station is literally a 3 minute walk from here..
