  1. Do they use or even have deck guns ? And do they ever use ladder trucks or bucket trucks on residential fires ?

  2. I didn’t see any interior attacks. Even fires this big are easier to fight from the inside. Getting the water to the base of the fire pits it out faster.

  3. Visited Japan about 20 years ago. Was amazed at the tiny firetrucks. This video shows well why they are so small. The firetrucks in Chicago could never get there.

  4. Solid defensive attack with emphasis on exposures.Remember folks this is Japan and it is closely constructed.I hope there is help for the effected families.

  5. Roast some hot dogs. That 1 hell of a working involed structure fire

  6. These asian countries are quite demure and respectful with their emotions whilst watching things like this as spectators.
    In American you'd get some fat chocolate hogwart screaming "ermahgaaaaawd" repeatedly while adding other incessant drivel. And Hank Loudmouth American Jr, the checkshirted accountant running around badmouthing first responders and threatening to sue them in the background.

  7. Many factors here. Small streets for accessibility? Limited tank size on their apparatus? Not sure if they had hydrants in the area? Limited water supply unlike the USA with large diameter hose? Questionable on master stream use due to limited water supply? Aerial apparatus unable to access area? Structures built on top of each other, just like the U.S.? Over all, they kept the fire to the original structure even with the fire volume on arrival. Every country operates differently with what they have just like every department paid or volunteer in the USA. I think they did well with what they had. KUDOS to them.

  8. I'd like to know what the old electrical wiring was like in Japan to see how it compares with the old 'knob and tube' wiring in the US. Also, am curious to know what the codes were for framing and building materials.

  9. И здесь епондцы молодцы – быстро локализовали, вату не катали. Вспоминаю я винипухов из техаса, при тех бы все сгорело, пока авиацию не привлекли бы (в комментариях того случая поговаривали о намеренном сваливании всех убытков на страховку). Здесь проворны и слажены. Только жаль погорельцев.

  10. The one big difference I see here between Japanese and American firefighters, is we have a no running on the fire scene policy. It gets people hurt.

  11. Thank u.
    Stay safe.
    My thoughts are still with them from 2011.🙏
    Good people.Much respect.
    From Ga. USA.

  12. למה לא משתמשים עם סולם מנוף כבאים…השליטה על האש מלמעלה יותר יעילה….כי המים נשפכים מלמעלה למטה,ומכבות פעמיים את השריפה,גם למעלה,וגם למטה…🌹🌹🌹🇮🇱🇮🇱🤲🤲💖💖👍👍🤝🤝🤝

  13. So no wooden houses, brick houses that don't burn as quickly or reinforced concrete
