Fire Critic An Unadulterated View of the Fire Service
Red Bank Volunteer Fire Department (NJ) Firefighters battle a house fire on Hudson Street and capture it with a helmet camera. Two families escaped the fire safely prior to firefighters arriving.
Listen as Father/Son firefighting team are on the rig together. The father is on the pump, the son is on the line. “lets go, lets go, Dad this thing is #$@#ing going lets go”…
It looks as though a 1 3/4” is pulled off the rig first. Not my first pick for a fire like this…
Firefighters described the blaze as one of the fastest-moving they’d seen in years, though they managed to largely confine it to the northern half the structure at number 46. Northwesterly winds pushed heavy smoke to the ground for blocks around.
