That's what I'm saying. When you see these videos, you don't always get the whole story. It's hard to comment unless you were there! These videos don't always start at the beginning of the incident, and some of them cut off way too early. Got to be there to know whats really going on!

It Was 2:30 In The Morning & The Building Was Occupied Except For The First Floor Which Was Vacant As Heard In The Video. I Would Tend To Agree With You On Some Points But Searches Needed To Be Done Once The Fire Began Venting Thru The Roof The Evac. Was Given

I agree Jeff,that top floor from what I could see from the video didn't look good at all. With that debris falling down the way it was, should of been a good indicator. A rapid deterioration of that structure, and guys still inside, not a good thing ! Might of been that the interior guys were there earlier than we know? It looked like the guys were starting to evacuate ,then one went back in. Holes in the first floor, not a good sign either.

Why was there guys in there from the beginning? I'd get aerials in the air and flood the place. They ordered for an evacuation and there was still guys inside. Well after a report advised personnel on scene that there were holes in the floor.
I don't know, maybe I'm just dumb but I would never let guys go into a fire under this condition.
