Early (and later) video of 3-alarm fire in a St. Louis strip mall
Pretty decent video, good one for a what would you do class room environment. I wish I was still teaching T & S classes. All the good (poor) stuff out there for teaching aids in the internet now. Used to be all you had to teach from was from still pictures. With the advent of helmet mounted cams, vehicle cameras its all out there for someone to grab now.

See series of still pictures - More images from the fire
The fire was called in around 2:00 PM on Thursday afternoon at a beauty supply store in a strip mall at 4314 North Grand Boulevard in St. Louis. The fire spread to the adjacent Family Dollar store and also damaged a health center.
The YouTube video starts early in the incident when the fire ground operations are getting started and the rest of the material is shot as fire breaks through the roof. Three-alarms were called and the helicopter video shows at least five ladder pipes in operation. Good old surround and drown situation.
