Acetylene Tanks And Car Parts Exploding And On Fire In Gary Indiana

21

Watch for a fairly large explosion around 3:38. Truck 13 was dispatched to a reported brush fire at 2994 Burr at about 10:40am on 11-11-09, on arrival Truck 13 requested a full still for a working fire in a makeshift storage building loaded with oil, gasoline, acetylene tanks, and car parts. Multiple lines were stretched to bring the fire under control along with the use of a front end loader used to open the “building”. Nobody was injured at the fire scene and investigators were on scene working. Awesome job done by GFD, 1st turn

    the fire wont go out at 5:30 to 7:13 because it was reignighting and it probably was a chemical type fire

    During the explosion at 3:40 there is always that one guy who doesn’t flinch!!!

    Was this “building” made out of shipping containers? That’s what it sorta looks like, and that’s a bloody death trap. See: Haunted Castle fire in Jackson NJ. Great videos mate.

  13. mabas21 says:

    I have friends come out all the time for fire buffing, I bbq and we mess around outside. It’s always a good time, just be ready for a ride better than six flags, and thats my driving to get to the fires!

  14. IrishEddieOHara says:

    That nasty, ugly, greasy eyesore was better burned down than up.

    Good job as usual, Ed.

    I wanna come ride with ya some week. You have all the fun!!

    Piercing the lower part of a closed burning container is a good way to cause and explosion.

    Next time try the top.
