Regardless of all the comments here, some negative,some positive, I do think this was a pretty quick response, by all the engines. Water on within a minute of arriving, FFs inside using the dry riser and within the flat quickly too. A big well done I’d say.
It's instant water from the tank called a High pressure hose reel..on a rotating drum you pull out as much as you need ..pump operated opens the tank and usually pumps it up to around 20-25 bars of pressure.. ..👍
We'll never learn. Too many dinosaurs in the American fire services. They enjoy taking 3 minutes untangling hundreds of feet of hose line for smaller fires like this. BUT...that longer, higher volume hose is needed for larger fires. Your dinky roll out hoses, although quick to deploy and appropriate for a fire like this, would be like trying to piss on a much larger fire {I must say though, that fully enclosed concrete flats/apartments (or homes) are much easier to fight with simply placing water on the fire from the outside as shown her. In all actuality, this fire was dying down as the fire department arrived due to most of the flammable materials had already been exhausted.].
@@matthewsims4457 They have the bigger ones too..probably looking for the hydrant while the " dinky ones " are first shot. ( I suspect I'm not telling you anything you didn't know though, if you are interested in such matters )
@@matthewsims4457those roll out ones are great for getting water on fast, that are perfect for putting out vehicle fires, and they are ideal for stopping things spreading while the second engine goes and opens a hydrant and connects up the bigger hoses
Absolutely amazing at the rapid response from time of arrival to getting water on .Not like American firefighters who run around in a disorganized fashion like headless chickens !
I live on the 12th floor of this apartment block. I didn't even realize there had been a fire until I had to go out to work in the afternoon. That shows how safe this building is. We've all had new fireproof front doors fitted recently, and there are two fire doors between the apartments and the elevators. As I was leaving, I asked a fire officer if the people living there were okay; he said they were. It looks like they were not at home. I feel for those guys - they've lost everything
I used to live in Welbeck house on the 7th-floor yrs ago (around 2001 I have now lived down southwest in Bristol for the past 18 yrs but still come home to see family in Ashton) and TBH I never felt totally safe there fire wise....only because the fire doors we had back then between the lift lobby and the 3 flats were glass with the wire running through then and had wooden painted frames (or at least that's WHAT THEY LOOKED LIKE) I am glad to see post-Grenfell that they have had to change some stuff! THE ONLY thing i would like to ask as you are a current resident is have they put fire doors between the lift lobby and the stairwells now? that was my biggest concern back then that if a fire (god forbid) go out onto the lift lobby landing then the stairwell was open top to bottom and would act as a chimney and block the one and only means of escape due to smoke! ..i do hope they have made the stairwells more contained in the 3 blocks than they were back then!
@@dizzydevil547 Yeah, they have. Also, we've got sprinklers, fire alarms, and three smoke detectors in each apartment - one in the hallway, and two in the kitchen. I lived in Welbeck way back in 1996, and then lived in Ellison for six years between 2005 to 2010. They're much safer now. My only issue is I can't have my cat; he has to live with my cousin
@@helengrantham2588 so glad to hear that!

No we the (UK) aren’t🤣 We could learn so much from the Americans. We have fell well behind other countries in terms of firefighting and general rescue capabilities.
We have different fire fighting styles. Yes we can pull up and do what you guys do and Spray water from the outside, however we're not trying to spread the fire to other parts of the apartment or building which is why we go inside to fight the fire.
There is always comparison on these videos between the American and European styles of fighting fires. However praise should really be given to all firefighters who risk there lives on a daily basis, to deal with what in all probability is someone's carelessness.
this appears to be a good response from the Fire Brigade . The building, by response from tenants, appears to do its job. I would feel more comfortable knowing this if looking or living in these units. Good luck to tenants
quite interesting.....I'm a retired Firefighter from the southern calif area.....when I was working, this water through the window would have been a "talking to"... I believe it is now a common practice to cool the room down from the outside before entry and extinguishment...the old thought was that the application of water would "push" the fire to uninvolved areas...
Před rokem+3
From the looks of blasted windows and the smoke, the fire is already fully developed and burning everything everywhere in the appartment. It looks relevant to do an immediate exterior attack to cool down as much smoke as possible and it looked effective when you see the giant cloud of steam coming out the other set of windows. We can't see very well but I guess the other high pressure hose has been used to do an interior attack. The exterior fireman then switched to peripheral cooling to avoid the smoke escaping through the windows to create more damage to the cladding.
@ im in uk and here they generaly use the hose reel on first arrival they get the hose reel and start putting down water onto the fire from the onbourd water tanks which holds enough water for six minutes at same time the driver who is also the pump opperator locates the nearest hydrant and lays a line from that to the pump all that is done in under 60seconds. on this building only the reels would be used. if it was a huge factory or lager retail complex then the main hoses are used in order to laydown even more water with greater pressure
I'm old school. Putting water from a window always seemed to work just fine. Then someone came up with hitting from the rear. Twenty years later, they're going back to the old way.
I love european firefighting. No pissing around. Water on the fire in 23 seconds, that's professionalism. Well done. We in North America should start using booster reels for quick knock downs too.
Very impressive response and knockdown of fire. Five engine companies. Not a single ladder company for a apartment fire in a ten story residential building. Don't see any chiefs, safety officers or rescue squads. A different style of firefighting in the UK than in North America.
An aerial ladder platform ('ladder company') would have been dispatched but maybe it was cancelled en route. This type apartment building is designed for internal firefighting as the priority. A dry riser is fitted the height of the building (connect a hose at ground floor externally and there's an outlet on each floor to connect a 2.5 inch hose). The building is clad in concrete panels so no issue like the Grenfell Tower disaster in London with inflammable cladding. Five pumps arrived from probably: Ashton (1.6 miles), Stalybridge (1.9 miles), Hyde (3.2 miles), Hollins (3.3 miles) and Mossley (3.7 miles). Greater Manchester Fire & Rescue Service have 41 stations covering about 500 square miles and a population of 2.8 million. Unlike the USA, in the UK each town doesn't individually operate it's own fire service. That system ended with the outbreak of war in 1939. The fire services cover much larger areas. In recent years they have expanded further (Scotland is covered by one organisation, as is Northern Ireland).
@@nevillemason6791 was the 5-pump response dispatched on the initial report of fire in a multi story building? Or did the first arriving officer “make pumps five”?
I didn't notice the 6th pump arrive at 11.52 (but there was a break in the video so arrival time is unknown). I don't know what the standard response would be but the 2nd and 3rd pumps arrived only 2 mins 35 secs after the first so must have been a minimum of three.
Yeah they'll have sent the three initial "pumps" as standard for a tower block along with a ladder which will have been en-route from further away because they don't have those at every station. They're not usually needed. The "chief" or scene commander travels to the scene in the fire engine itself, they're the guys with the white helmets. On larger fires, higher ranking officers may arrive in their own cars but they're not dispatched as standard. We don't have seperate safety officers or rescue squads. The crew on the fire engine are all trained in procedures to mimic these "specialties" so we don't have separate vehicles usually. There ARE specialist technical rescue and water rescue squads in their own trucks, but again they aren't usually needed for fires. They're dispatched to traffic collisions and so on.
@@GeorgeThoughts when you refer to a “ladder”, do you mean a turntable ladder or a water tender ladder? I don’t know much about UK standard operating procedures and I’m always eager to learn more.
@@billdacitizan380 At what point were the stairwells searched, from the fire floor to the roof bulkhead? What about the public hall on the fire floor? When was that searched for possible victims?

These structure fire videos are better than any of today's reality television shows. Ashton under Lyne, is very historical. A center of coal mining. Today, it's very popular for making movies, and has a large cultural diversity. The canals, are a popular attraction.
What should be noted is that the first fire engine was in attendance and on it`s own for 2.5 minutes before the second fire engine arrived! UK modern day standards of fire cover.
Luckily it was extinguished quickly. It's sad for the person who may have lost everything, more so if they're uninsured. It looks like quite a depressing place to live.
Very skilled FF there. Most of the USA could learn from y'all over there. Our fire crews are lazy AF compared to this...water on it in under 30 seconds arriving on scene and extinguished within 15. Terrific work.
Now was that so difficult? You can see the burning rooms so you put your tank water through the windows and eliminate the threat. The FDNY would have head for the roof and front door while they let it burn and spread for the next 20 minutes.
lol thats just false asf. They fried anyone who is still inside, thats why you go interior to fight the fire like a man and not stand outside like a bitch. I don't see ANY personnel from that engine attempting to make entry to do searches or evacuations. The alarm is sounding but that doesn't always mean everyone is out. The FDNY is the busiest and most prestigious Department in the United States, even going as far as teaching people around the world, even the British. Get off your high horse and respect those that built this job, you schmuck. Theres a method to their madness. You guys legit just killed ANYONE that was alive on the fire floor by steaming them alive since you put that stream through that window. Good job boy scount.
@@robmonkey Actually No! The FDNY is one of the worst departments in the world! Watch these videos and you may change your mind. czcams.com/play/PLkp0E1ao1XEyglhxetar50BGAuQ5CEoCu.html

Hi Helen, you said that the fire was ten floors below you and you didn't realise. Does that really mean the building is safe ? There's no such thing as a fireproof door. There are doors that are resistant to fire.
When Widsor Castle burnt down. Right at the base of Brunswick Tower. The one that went up like a Roman cande and bang on in the muffle of the fire. At yhe bottom was the Glass Pantry. The doors at be it Extremely thick oak doors were shut. The fire was just trying to lock at the bottom of them. Having got inside, every glass was in tack. Exept one a Fireman dropped. The shelves were jet black with loads of White Circles. Closed Doors are Very effective. No, they won't prevent the spread of fire but can help immensely to slow it down
@@fmartinjri.e . check if someone is in danger or need some help or at least change boardwalk Just in case if there was some flammable inside the burning home. Hard to believe how many frozen Findus flounder brains directed to mosquee or beer & betting house
He's just suppressing the fire externally while the rest of the firefighters tackle the fire within the building. At 3:35 a firefighter connects a hose to the rear of the fire engine and unrolls it to connect to the ground level inlet on the building's 'dry riser'. The dry riser is a pipe running vertically up the inside of the building with outlets on each floor. A hose will be connected to the outlet on the floor where the fire is to fight the fire. This avoids dragging hose up what could be many flights of stairs. The action is all out of sight.
At 12 minutes there are 8 engines on scene but not a single truck company. After Grenfell, I find this truly remarkable, particularly in light of the IC's decision to do an exterior attack.
@@patgeorge1 it may have worked this time but as he said, things happen as apparently with Grenfell. It's better to be safe than sorry with large scale buildings as the worst can happen. We do the exact same here in the states for large buildings and pre-plan for such emergencies where a high loss of life is potential. 4 or 5 members in a crew is ideal for interior attack, we do interior attack here in the states with much less - all we need is two in and two out for precaution. The first due unit's job is to establish water supply and get inside to find the fire and put it out as well as potentially locate any possible victims (which again is why you go interior, which they did not do, you treat all buildings as occupied until told otherwise). IC's decision was questionable and had this gone a bad way, he would be at fault for his actions.

The interior of that flat is burnt to a crisp...... I hope no one got hurt....
😳😳
Some context and background be good. Like how the fire started and shit.
bravo lads. heroes.
looks suspiciously like a Lithiun-ion Battery fire
Very skilled FF there. Most of the USA could learn from y'all over there. Our fire crews are lazy AF compared to this...water on it in under 30 seconds arriving on scene and extinguished within 15. Terrific work.
🤣
Hope no one was injured.
I live on the 12th floor of this apartment block. I asked a fire officer - no one was hurt.
backdraft or what ?
First rule evacuate everyone from hazad situations not just fire but gas explorations..hopefully people are okay
Lucky it wasn't any floor higher, the wind stopping that spray reaching at times was embarrassing to watch
HUH!!
no one calls the people out of this house?
Is there anibody in there? I don't know!
All right fingers crossed and go for it... 😮
Those Towers are death traps
Now was that so difficult? You can see the burning rooms so you put your tank water through the windows and eliminate the threat. The FDNY would have head for the roof and front door while they let it burn and spread for the next 20 minutes.
lol thats just false asf. They fried anyone who is still inside, thats why you go interior to fight the fire like a man and not stand outside like a bitch. I don't see ANY personnel from that engine attempting to make entry to do searches or evacuations. The alarm is sounding but that doesn't always mean everyone is out. The FDNY is the busiest and most prestigious Department in the United States, even going as far as teaching people around the world, even the British. Get off your high horse and respect those that built this job, you schmuck. Theres a method to their madness. You guys legit just killed ANYONE that was alive on the fire floor by steaming them alive since you put that stream through that window. Good job boy scount.
I see you're still bitter that you've been rejected by every fire department you've applied to 😆😅😂🤣
You're right about everything except the 20 minutes part. FDNY is much faster than that. Some other US fire departments, not so much
@@virgilhilts3924 And thank God for that.
@@robmonkey Actually No! The FDNY is one of the worst departments in the world! Watch these videos and you may change your mind. czcams.com/play/PLkp0E1ao1XEyglhxetar50BGAuQ5CEoCu.html
Be careful with 🔥
Water on immediately, then get set up and enter. excellent
But... Why no tlp on scene?

Only thing I did not see right away were police to stop the through traffic.
i hope no one was inside the appartment, they get directly water, withput evacute. the water steam would grill the people inside. get person evac first, is prio number one
The bloke in blue at 14:40 realises he won't be buying his crack supply today...
Hi Helen, you said that the fire was ten floors below you and you didn't realise. Does that really mean the building is safe ? There's no such thing as a fireproof door. There are doors that are resistant to fire.
When Widsor Castle burnt down. Right at the base of Brunswick Tower. The one that went up like a Roman cande and bang on in the muffle of the fire. At yhe bottom was the Glass Pantry. The doors at be it Extremely thick oak doors were shut. The fire was just trying to lock at the bottom of them. Having got inside, every glass was in tack. Exept one a Fireman dropped. The shelves were jet black with loads of White Circles. Closed Doors are Very effective. No, they won't prevent the spread of fire but can help immensely to slow it down
@Paul Graham Fire doors in flat have to resist a fire for a minimum of 30 minutes
I'm working on this building. That whole flat was destroyed but outside the front door is not even smoke damaged. Its all like new again inside now.
I was somewhat surprised by the inaction by passerby's before arrival of fire service.
A quick look to the left and just kept walking like it was an everyday thing.
What did you want them to do.... jump up and down?
@@fmartinjri.e . check if someone is in danger or need some help or at least change boardwalk Just in case if there was some flammable inside the burning home. Hard to believe how many frozen Findus flounder brains directed to mosquee or beer & betting house
Me watching:
One guy with a hose. Ok good.
Still one guy with a hose.
Still ONE guy with a hose.
STILL ... ???
He's just suppressing the fire externally while the rest of the firefighters tackle the fire within the building. At 3:35 a firefighter connects a hose to the rear of the fire engine and unrolls it to connect to the ground level inlet on the building's 'dry riser'. The dry riser is a pipe running vertically up the inside of the building with outlets on each floor. A hose will be connected to the outlet on the floor where the fire is to fight the fire. This avoids dragging hose up what could be many flights of stairs. The action is all out of sight.
At 12 minutes there are 8 engines on scene but not a single truck company. After Grenfell, I find this truly remarkable, particularly in light of the IC's decision to do an exterior attack.
First pump to arrive did an exterior attack as only 4 or 5 crew and anyway it worked did we see the whole picture?
Only 5 pumps attended the scene and ALP wasn’t needed
@@patgeorge1 it may have worked this time but as he said, things happen as apparently with Grenfell. It's better to be safe than sorry with large scale buildings as the worst can happen. We do the exact same here in the states for large buildings and pre-plan for such emergencies where a high loss of life is potential. 4 or 5 members in a crew is ideal for interior attack, we do interior attack here in the states with much less - all we need is two in and two out for precaution. The first due unit's job is to establish water supply and get inside to find the fire and put it out as well as potentially locate any possible victims (which again is why you go interior, which they did not do, you treat all buildings as occupied until told otherwise). IC's decision was questionable and had this gone a bad way, he would be at fault for his actions.
I find it remarkable that you still think you have the slightest clue about firefighting 😆😅😂🤣
@@danielmichaels1505 I saw 8
Why can't the cops block off the whole street where the fire is to keep everyone safe!🙄🙄
In America the building would have collapsed.
😀😀
뭐때문에불이난거에요
Good attendance by the police they must be filling in all the paperwork for all the crime committed here
These flats are built to contain a fire
Well done to the firepersons ,hope no one was in there or hurt.😮
