Ya it's a neat thing to see ...... hot too ...... if you look down the wall you can see a space between the wall plywood and the smoke ...... that space is the wall off-gassing ....... neat fire behavior ....

Been in there 8 times so far

I’m happy my video got posted! Thank you for a good morning of training.

Kinda toasty to know what a baked ham goes through... yet you endure!!! You are the best!!!!

Thank you for sharing 🙏

It's a wild thing to see in person

Miss them days, could sit and watch that for hours. 😞

One of the best flashovers in that chamber Ive gotten to see.

Awsome

That’s perfect rollover

Figure 8 the ceiling baby!! Whoop whoop!!

Past time to ventilate!

As someone who isn't a firefighter, that's a whole lotta NOPE for me. Mad respect to folks who actually go into places like this on purpose.

Yikes!!

That looks like a roll over.

At this point as the flames are rolling over your head is when your able to hear the fire come alive at least it sounded like it to me

Have you guys tried pulsing techniques yet?

Ttfs

I remember it well. Got caught in one while doing a search, jumped out 2nd floor window landed on 1st floor porch roof, suffered 2nd degree burns, myself and another firefighter, spent 2 days in the hospital

I think it's a lil worse then that in real life
