Of course, but if the bystanders are saying that the people with training are not competent or not coming or not doing their job, then someone has to step up. Point is, unless you can do something better than someone, don't pretend like you can or criticize their efforts. If the civilians using the extinguisher is risky, which I know it is, how about they run it over to one of the Police Officers to give them an additional attempt at suppression? No matter what the case, people will always film things and will always have comments. I forget the source but I recently heard that in a 24 hour period, the average person is recorded by an "undetected camera" roughly 240 times each day.

Stupid f'ing bystanders always have so much to say. So quick to make complaints about effort and time. Did one of them get a fire extinguisher from the store they were in and try to help out? Stupid cowards, hiding in a store front talking about something they know nothing about. IE: "Why is there only one fire department person?" The name is a firefighter idiot not a fire department person.

I remember passing you. That was our soon to be gone utility. Stay safe.

Glad to hear the no one was injured. I obviously do not know the time frame for when the video was captured but I am curious as to why more master streams were not being used. About a minute into the video, you can see a tower ladder but it is not delivering water. Perhaps it was difficult to get trucks close enough to the building? Perhaps the video is from the first couple minutes? Just my $0.02.

I noticed that too...I'm not sure if they did they lettering.

Thank you.

Can someone tell me what this truck is used for?

Also came across Rescue 1 in quarters.

Was also in the city yesterday and got some shots of one of the new rear mounts that is in service, while parked at Rockefeller Center.

Dropped off one of our engines at Ferrara in NJ this past Monday and took some pictures of the rear mounts that are getting their final touches. Beautiful trucks and extremely well planed and thought out.

Total tragedy. RIP Brother. Thoughts and prayers are with the family.

My buddy just got hired by SUNY Canton PD and is currently in the St. Lawrence County Police Academy. They do not go through the NYSP Academy.

Tragic. Thoughts and prayers go out to the children. RIP Brother.

Nice shots, thanks for posting them!

Nice pictures, thanks for sharing.

Sad news... Rest In Peace Brother. Thoughts and prayers go out to his family, friends and fell firefighter. Article Stay Safe.

Talking young members through "tough" incidents is one of the best things a co-worker can do for the person. Initiating contact is a good thing to because the younger member may very likely not feel comfortable stepping forward to seek guidance. I do not think anyone has ever or will ever see it all. Keep sharp, focused and up to date. You never know when you will be confronted with a new situation that requires you to use your skills. Nice post Buff.

Rest in Peace. God Bless you Brother.

Awesome find! Great pictures.
