I think you've missed a trick. That could have been a whole half hour episode of reality TV (well 20 minutes, with 10 of them repeated after the ad break - just in case you forgot). Forget Cops with Cameras, now there's Men with Matches.
The pyro in me just loves a big fire. Well done.

Brilliant, bit like the youtube channel "Will it Blend?" I could do "Will it Burn?". I am think a Car vs Campervan, Tree Vs Telephone Pole, Plane Vs Boat, Iphone Vs Android Device, Petrol Tanker Vs Diesel Tanker.The pyro in me just loves a big fire. Well done.
I have now started looking at things as "how many minutes it would take to burn it down". We were debating getting my nephew (6 years old ) up to watch it but the only moment of clarity came when we thought "this is how those people you read about in the paper started off". The Pyro side of me is strong at the moment and I am needing all my strength to fight it, so a 6 year old would have no chance.

I do hope the OP wasn't using a hosepipe in an area where there is a ban.
Top work OP.
I don't think the hosepipe ban applies to firefighting somehow!Top work OP.
Although my 6 year old lad was gutted when they couldn't play with the hoses at his visit to the firestation last month!
Oh yes my friend, oh yes.
Hose pipe ban ago-go.
Stick that up your arse H&S loving, risk assessment cooing bd water misers.
We paid for it, we set light to it, we used it and we put the bugger out.
Saved council money on disposal and fire brigade salaries cos we did it ourselves. Just like "during the war".
Ok it not quite the same as the war, two bloke being reckless and enjoying a good old barn burning but I have learned some firefighting skills, and that if you spray a tin metal sheet for a few seconds that has been in the fiery depths of hell for a hour, the resulting explosion of steam doesn't mean that it is safe to handle with leather gloves. Buggers went red hot straight away and shrunk on my hand making hard for the digits to exit their hot coffin. Once off they were shrunk like a woolen jumper on a hot wash and rock solid.
Every day is a school day........

That fire would have been 600degC or so I reckon. No, a sprinkle with a hose and a leather glove won't cut it!
I bet they are still giving off plenty of heat now!
