00:00Ah! The Thorncliffe Park Fire! The internal coal fire within an apartment building. Yes, I call it a coal fire, or a wall fire, because it burns like a fucking coal fire, and it's just never going to stop until finally it is fully extinguished.
00:18You know, the source of what is burning. Be it electrical, it could have easily just been electrical, which caused that fire in the first place, and it's going to burn like a fucking wick until there's nothing fucking left. You know, burn like a coal fire, burn like a goddamn fucking, what do you call it, a cigar until it's fully extinct, until there's no fuel left. That's exactly what's happening. That's exactly what's been happening for weeks now. For about a week.
00:48Yeah, they said weeks. Weeks now. Who knows how long it's going to take until that fire is completely extinguished. Nobody fucking knows. It could be a week, could be a month, who knows? Fire crews cannot figure out how to get into that entry point. They cannot figure out how to put the goddamn thing out, so what are they going to do? Fuck all. They can't do nothing. They cannot absolutely do nothing to put it out. They can't just go to the roof and drill holes and pour water down. Nope, that's not going to work.
01:16They can't go to the base and just shoot water up, because that's not going to work either. If they try to let steam, uh, no, that's still not going to work, because it'll just condense at the point of where it goes, and it won't put it fucking out.
01:30However, they could try exhausting CO2 up that area. Right? That could put it out and smother it. Or, probably not, anyway. They could roll holes and drop dry ice on the top, but I don't think that's going to work either.
01:44There's so many ways of doing it. But, it's just going to be fucking impossible.
01:50And, I feel bad for the residents, because this should never have happened, but, you know, that's just how it is sometimes.
01:57What the fuck can you do? Fuck all.
02:01You can only do so much, right?
02:04You can only do so much about it, and, well, you're pretty much fucked until that's solved.
02:10And, then, whoa. Once they solve it, once it eventually burns itself out, guess what?
02:15They've got to redo everything in that goddamn building.
02:19New conduit. Yes.
02:22New wiring.
02:23Be it coaxial, fiber optic, electrical.
02:27Oh, yeah.
02:28They're going to require to do that. That's going to be real costly.
02:32And, that might actually reflect on the rent.
02:35Oh, shit.
02:37Did I not mention that? The rent?
02:39Yup, that's going to reflect badly on it.
02:43And, you know, it's going to cost a lot.
02:47Okay.
02:48These are my thoughts. Unbased. Unpaid.
02:51Because I don't get paid to do this shit at all.
