Check out the 5:10 to 5:25 mark to see how the firefighter feels it went classic brother. Be careful to bash time for water application. This is a coordinated attack maybe different from what we do but not bad. It is tough to watch fire burn hang in there. Thoughts guys please......
Doesnt present initially like a difficult fire. Looks like they are so obsessed with getting on the roof to cut open an already vented fire they neglect to get a hoseline in place rapidly and pretty much loose the 2nd story. IMO would have pulled wall or ceiling below it/adjacent and inserted a nozzle, indirect fire attack, quench fire, then open up. You create a venturi once you open up the roof, the pressure created by the fire releases through the vent hole pulling more air like a pump via soffet vents and alike. The pure oxygenated air is used for fuel, fire triangle. Just my .02
