Now that’s something you don’t see everyday. Thanks Skyler
It's a thing. I spent 3 years as a drawbridge operator, and the expansion of the steel jams things up a bit. Nothing to really do with maintenance, just the climate.
We had a bridge at the Rouge River plant in Detroit. They keep fire hoses running on the expansion joint all summer for the same reason.
You’d think in modern times they’d have a system to monitor the temperature and expansion of the bridge that could be combined with a water wash down system to keep the entire bridge cooler. Seems no reason for this type of incident to happen.
Yeah
In Netherlands its common on hot days to cool down steel bridges with water to prevent them from getting damaged due to expanding and getting stuck in a open or closed position.
Expected this to be common as well in New York due to all those steel bridges.
Its amazing to see all the different things FDNY has to deal with. Great catch 😊
This happens in Chicago all the time too.
While Phoenix & Las Vegas don't have bridges like this, I wonder how the railroads in those areas will fare, with record heat in those areas.
Excellent footage, Skyler.
great video....good thinking everyone knows cold water causes "Shrinkage"
Great point!
Someone doesn't understand the physics of expansion.... The WHOLE length needs to be cooled. It wasn't just the ends that expanded. Each foot expanded a few thouosandths, and that added up to an interference fit. Cooling the last 15 feet won't do anything....
That was my thought. I assumed they were going to sweep along the bridge not just hit the end. They were focused on the contact point not the reason it existed.
I would think that they are doing what was requested by whoever is in charge of operating the bridge
Unusual incident indeed TX Slyler
Thanks for watching
Isn't one of the fdny fire boats named after the first deputy commissionser who died on 9/11. Awesome video Skyler Fire.
Yes William Feehan which is Marine 6 Spare boat
Interesting incident! Thanks so much Skyler for sharing 👍
Thanks for watching
@@SkylerFire Hi Skyler 🤝 You're welcome
It's hard to believe, but true that marine traffic still has the right of way over trains and car traffic in 2024.
Very different type of video Skyler be safe
Thanks
Thanks didn't know that was a thing
Thanks for watching
Why not cool the other side too to keep both ends at approximately the same temperature?
I came through there in the 80's to get from Deegan to Harlem Rv Drive the Bronx did nor look like that. I was shocked to see those glass towers!!!
The 80s was a diff time bro everything in the south bronx is rebuild
@@stevensantiago1977realtors don't even call that section South Bronx anymore. It's "SoBro" or "The Piano District" now. Trying to make it sound more desirable to the hipsters, I guess.
Still South Bronx to me, though.
Typical cops calling it a major emergency
Lol
heat causes things to expand and tight fitting things get jammed....
Yup
I’m curious as to why the larger fireboat keeps its radar spinning, whilst in such a narrow channel? Isn’t it better to minimise unnecessary radiation?
Not sure
Radar can rotate their antenna without radiating. Useful when you do not wish to irradiate nearby people but want the radar to be online as quickly as possible.
thats crazy
Is there any update on what possibly or allegedly happened at this bridge malfunction? Awesome video anyway! 👍
Overheated due to the heat.
Phenomenal footage Skylar. Do they know what caused the bridge to become stuck in the open position. I hope you have a great day my friend, and stay safe ❤️🙂⚘️🚒.
Do u have a motorola r 7?
@@fire_buff_shane._nyc no!
@@SkylerFire what motorola is it?
@@fire_buff_shane._nyc why?
@@SkylerFire because i might get it?
I Hate Hot 🔥 Weather
Its amazing how our Infrastructure is turning to shit !
Thanks to Lindsay who started the concept of "deferred maintenance ". Ye reap what ye sow.
Steel expansion during heatwaves is common. There are no reports that this was due to neglect in maintenance. But severe weather changes will lead to more frequent long term problems for the world: affecting farming, healthcare, infrastructure, ecology etc…
I think they should have called the tug boats, hooked up their ropes to the bridge and utilized the fire boats as well. If tug boats can guide a massive cruise who's to say that they couldn't handle a bridge.
I don’t know … seems like another case of wasted resources of FDNY / NYPD . This is summer , ain’t the first time it’s been hot , won’t be the last. Think the bridge operators need to come up with a solution that doesn’t tie up first responders for something that’s not an emergency. Just my opinion … good coverage either way
The marine units don't get to do much spraying of the deck guns let them have their fun if a water job came up they would be redirected to that anyway. Plus the bridge being stuck would affect response times too. The major technical response that they mentioned on the radio would likely have been very promptly downgraded to just a couple of units
That bridge is like 5 years old they just replace it recently it not old at all some people commenting old infrastructure it not old at all
Interesting, maybe the old bridge had larger tolerances to allow for expansion. Or wear had created a larger gap.
