Close Call: House Collapses and Firefighters Nearly hit by falling ladder and porch roof in this short house fire video

1 comment

I admit that the quality of this video isn’t the best, but what it captures is some scary moments for firefighters.

The clip is short and worth watching as firefighters battle a house fire the roof and 1/2 story upstairs collapses along with the porch roof. Firefighters scramble to get out of the way of a ground ladder which was set on the house. The porch roof lands right where firefighters had been standing and as they scramble, the move into the path of the falling ladder. It does not appear as though anyone was hurt.
