    I realize it was an old dried out wooden tinderbox, but always sad to see pieces of history disappear like this. Thank you to all of the fire crews that got this under control eventually and no damage to any exposures.
  • I have never seen utility pull a breaker like that, I'm used to them going up in a bucket. THAT WAS AWESOME !!!!! Thanks for the share

    Excellent video coverage, especially appreciated the quadcopter follow-up on the 2nd day. What a beautiful picturesque NH town, sad to see. Subscribed. 👍👍👍

    Glad that everyone made it out okay, but sad that the two cats didn't. The structure probably went through multiple renovations which added to the difficulties in fighting that fire.

    Never seen so much water being put onto a fire… impressive

    I wonder if a metal roof is even legal. They would have knocked the fire down a lot sooner. Great job covering this fire and showing the next day was awsome.

    Real Old Dried Out Wooden Tinderbox, Good Knockdown 🔥 Saved The Surrounding Exposures, I'm Surprised The Chief 👨🏼‍🚒 DIdnt Pull The Car 🚙 Away From The Structure. Capeesh. 🤺🤺🤺🤺🇺🇲

    Great attack from above..first time I saw 2 streams from one platform....some FD in the past have used the platform to observe the fire never to put water on it...

    Stopped at Udderly Delicious for ice cream several times. Don't know if this fire was caused by an electrical problem, but I wouldn't be surprised. Old wiring wouldn't be sufficient to handle the load from al the freezers and equipment.. The building was a firetrap

    Wooden buildings do burn well, fortunately most buildings here in the UK are brick or stone.

    You’ve never seen a utility worker pull the breaker before? Maybe I’m just used to seeing more things being from the city. They use the pole to pull breakers all the time . That woman & guy on the video were acting like they were watching someone cure cancer for the first time. 🤷‍♂️ it’s really not a big deal.
