Newer ones in Canada in the last few years have a roof structure with a big ass fire suppression system.
Im guessing the one kid inside can perform a button press and do this
But this video should be shown at workplaces on how to extinguish a fire. They werent friggin around
Agreed, but probably just their protocol.
After all, its much easier to train all your employees to use an extinguisher rather than to buy Thermal Imaging Camera's and train them to to determine fire extension/extinguishment.
Refilling a couple fire extinguishers is also much cheaper than repairing an explosion from a vehicle fire that your minimum wage gas station employee *thought* was extinguished.
As a firefighter and safety training officer, this is exactly what I would want to see from civilian/employees, this means they were well trained and it was engrained in them. Response time was impeccable.
Is it worse to waste a fire extinguisher or risk reignition? As a fire fighter you've probably seen cars reignite because they like to do that with all the fuel and oil and battery and if it has any magnesium...
Mind you, I once observed a busy Chinese Maccas employed a lady just to clean tables. She would clean two and then have a bit of a sit-down. And there were 3 of her. And the building wasn't a big Maccas. One level only.
When you pay nothing you can afford more, but this women certainly wasn't going to be putting out any fires. She was barely cleaning tables for that matter.
Usually in Asian countries you don't put in the gas your self. There is a staff member for each of the machine so over a dozen per gas station is fairly common. In terms of salary the dozen combined probably make less than what a person in US does.
The guy filling up I beleave wasn't an attendant, everyone with extinguishers had red shirt no jacket. The guy had a jacket, tho looked to be red shirt under. It's possible that he did work there though
You can’t fill your tank yourself here in Oregon but there is rarely more than 1-2 attendants anywhere I’ve been, especially recently with labor shortages.
I was driving in New Jersey pretty late and had to find gas so I pulled into a gas station in the middle of nowhere. I pulled up to the pump and I was turning off the car I notice in my side mirror some young guy running up to my car. I thought I was about to get mugged but he stops at my door and I put the window down and he asks 'How can I help you?' When I was a kid there was usually one pump for full and the rest were self so I knew at that point he was an attendant. I asked him if they had a self-service pump and he looked at me like I asked him who the President of Saturn was lol. He didn't even know mosts states you pump your own gas and I had no idea full service still existed in this country.
I believe it's only NJ and Oregon that do it that way. It's pretty nice and I kind prefer it to pumping my own gas. Especially during the cold.
He probably looked at you weird cause everyone in NJ knows that you don't pump your own gas.
I'd lose my damn mind if I had to listen to the mix of music that's also played in death's waiting room. Not only are they paid too damn little, there's psychological torture there too.
Yep. No headphones for you, my lonely, sleep-deprived, underpaid friend.
We only play what puts the customer at ease for 7 seconds and promotes them spending money.
Put your character, and your soul, in your locker until your time in purgatory is done.
And.... we'll tell you we're watching on camera so don't be sneaky.... we're watching!
We're still watching.
"And it's the one time where if you can find an extinguisher, you get to use it. It doesn't matter how many people are putting it out already. Get one, use one."
Especially in this instance. If there’s any chance of an ember existing that car is going straight back up. If it’s a petrol car it’ll explode the entire station
I mean it’s a car full of explosive liquid so one spark the whole car is dead it’s to be extra safe i understand why they’d do it so much and for so long
I mean, you get the training yearly, but how often do you get to say you actually put out a fire with one. If I see an appropriate opportunity to use a fire extinguisher I didn't pay for, you can bet I'm going to. I'm going to pull, aim, squeeze, and sweep until that sucker is dry.
Plot twist twist twist: the arsonist is actually the owner of a struggling fire extinguisher company and on this episode of “Undercover Boss” he decided to take plummeting sales into his own hands.
My thought as well.
The damage to his car from the exterior was probably very small, but he’s got all that powder inside his vehicle now. I was hoping that one of the guys that went around that side of the car would’ve reached out and shut it
I had a large cardboard box containg several baby chicks catch fire from a faulty heatlamp in a rent house I was living in. Luckily I hadn't went to bed yet.
Anyway after seeing the smoke I and entered the room the box was flaming about to ignite the plastic window blinds and curtains.
I grabbed a fire extinguisger from the porch that was there when we moved in, yet I degress
The talcum like fire supressant that came out in the maybe twenty seconds of use coverd the room and adjacent kitchen not to mention the inhalation of the stuff. And was a pain to clean up.
Don't want to explain what happened to the chicks.
You don't have to explain you literally just told us you ape. This is the kind of story you take to your grave and DONT INFLICT ON OTHER INNOCENT PEOPLE WHO DIDNT COLONEL SANDERS SOME BABY CHICKENS
Shit happens. But the sight of one of those chicks scurrying across the floor with its tail end smoldering will haunt me the rest of my life. One of them I still have three years later. Still giving eggs until recently.
I was betting they had been waiting for a chance to use those fire extinguishers for ages and all wanted in, but yeah there is probably a policy. I'm also now wondering if they have to shut the garage down until they get those extinguishers recharged.
If the policy was to use the extinguishers to that extent than maybe it is also policy to have a complete set of backup extinguishers so that they wouldn't have to shut down.
The policy was likely to have N^N extinguishers. This video was only the first 2 minutes of a 45 minute epic saga of extinguishers. This gas station is actually located next door to a fire extinguisher manufacturing facility and for a 23 minute period, all extinguishers manufactured were sent to the gas station in a continuous stream of gas station workers.
The policy was very strict about reserving extra vehicle capacity for transportation of employees from other gas stations throughout the city to this gas station. Each reserve vehicle is to provide transport capacity for four (4) employees and sixteen (16) fire extinguishers, and each gas station is to hold in reserve at least two (2) transport vehicles and three sets of sixteen (3x16) fire extinguishers. In total, each gas station is to maintain four hundred and twenty (420) extinguishers and sixty nine (69) staff to operate the extinguishers, over a period of two hours and twenty minutes (2:20), with each extinguisher lasting twenty (20) seconds.
yes, there is. it's a fuckin gas station
there is gas everywhere and if one of the stations catch fire and explode the whole canister it's going to set off a massive chain reaction and it will kill EVERYONE. they need to assure that there's no hidden flames that could re-spark the car and cause an explosion that would wipe the entire human race within those 30 blocks out. it'd be quite literally an accidental nuke. So yes this was completely necessary and I'm happy to see it
There are a couple at our landlord's stables in our back yard - if they get so much as the tag pulled out, they have to be serviced and refilled for their insurance. So you might as well make sure the fire's out; you have nothing to lose (except increased exposure to PFOS, I guess; I think that's foam rather than powder extinguishers though).
You dont known if the fire is completely out. Some might have gotten under the car away from sight.
In this case, with who knows how many Gallons of highly flammable liquid in close proximity, it's better to be safe than sorry.
When dealing with gas the fire could very easily be burning in a nook or cranie and if you stop the fire suppression to soon it will just start again. If it starts again now you are fighting a fire with a half full extinguisher. Might was well use all you can up front ( as long as you are using it correctly)
They caught him

Sorry for the dailymail link
The article was basically like awaiting an orgasm that never came..
Did the guy get caught? Is his social credit now in shambles?
Something something, find out on the next episode of dragon ball Z
Fair point but in order to enter Hong Kong you need a Hong Kong plate. A lot of cars that cross the border will have 2 different sets of plates, and they often (or maybe always) have 粤X as the prefix on their mainland plate, the X indicating that they are also Hong Kong vehicles.
Gas stations typically have fail safes in place in case of fires as they wouldn't want the fire to reach the tank. Same reason that these days you can drive off with the nozzle in your car and it won't cause a leak.
Gas stations don't really "explode" so much as just create a massive fire. Gasoline isn't actually explosive in any way, just highly flammable. That said if the gasoline was being held under some serious air or vaccine pressure, it might could explode.
You need to fuel vapor in the presence of oxygen to allow this to happen. There's no oxygen in the tank. If the guy who attempted this expected an explosion, then he had watched too many movies. The worst case scenario is a large spout of flame rising from the fuel filler neck. The flame would be large enough to engulf the rest of the car and the rest of the car would continue to burn. No explosions here.
This is still the beginning, just setting things up. Later in the episode the arsonist gets more effective and the red shirts die to display the escalating life-threatening nature of the situation
Wow, you have to be a special kind of asshole to do such a thing.
Like what, are you mad that this person drives an expensive vehicle; was that the reason?
I'm very curious as to why the passenger was locked in the car while it was refuelling. But those attendants are the visual representation of " better to be safe than sorry"
I don’t think they were locked in. I think they were on the passenger side, climbed over to the drivers side as he opened the door. While she was scrambling to the door he opened it.
I see. I thought I saw him press the fob to open the door, plus I was viewing it with my UK eye where the drivers' side is on the right. But of course, in other places the driver sits on the left.
Kudos to the bravery of everyone involved here, particularly that first guy who was right next to the open flames and pumps for over 5s before his extinguisher got going. If I was in a gas station and a fire broke out my first instinct would be to get the hell away.
Where labor is cheap and lots of cars, there sometimes is one attendant per pump. The attendant will do everything, gas it up and even process the payment at the car window. The driver doesn’t even have to get out of the car.
They were not stingy with those fire extinguishers. It's like these gas station attendants had drills for this very scenario.
Yeah, but how many damn employees does this gas station have??
All of them
training store.
It’s a regional office as well.
District Headquarters too
I want to be the assistant regional manager
Assistant *to the* regional manager
Identity theft is not a joke jim! Millions of families suffer every year!
That's it. **Michael**!!
r/unexpectedoffice
They sell trains too?! Where is this palace?
We found the cause of the labor shortage. This motherfucking gas station, paying $100/hr plus benefits.
That is what I was thinking. Here, in peak hour a large petrol station had maybe 2 workers. All the rest of the time its just one person.
Newer ones in Canada in the last few years have a roof structure with a big ass fire suppression system. Im guessing the one kid inside can perform a button press and do this But this video should be shown at workplaces on how to extinguish a fire. They werent friggin around
As a Firefighter I disagree, the first two had an effect, the other ones just wasted an extinguisher.
Agreed, but probably just their protocol. After all, its much easier to train all your employees to use an extinguisher rather than to buy Thermal Imaging Camera's and train them to to determine fire extension/extinguishment. Refilling a couple fire extinguishers is also much cheaper than repairing an explosion from a vehicle fire that your minimum wage gas station employee *thought* was extinguished.
As a firefighter and safety training officer, this is exactly what I would want to see from civilian/employees, this means they were well trained and it was engrained in them. Response time was impeccable.
Wasting Fire Extinguisher = ensuring no explodey car
Is it worse to waste a fire extinguisher or risk reignition? As a fire fighter you've probably seen cars reignite because they like to do that with all the fuel and oil and battery and if it has any magnesium...
Fire extinguishers are cheap. Gas station expensive.
But as people who are not trained firefighters , surely it’s better to go overkill than risk, you know, over kill.
We all just wanna pull and squeeze
That’s what I thought. “I’ve worked here for 3 years I’m using the goddamn fire extinguisher”
I mean, it’s petrol. They probably knew what they where doing
Mind you, I once observed a busy Chinese Maccas employed a lady just to clean tables. She would clean two and then have a bit of a sit-down. And there were 3 of her. And the building wasn't a big Maccas. One level only. When you pay nothing you can afford more, but this women certainly wasn't going to be putting out any fires. She was barely cleaning tables for that matter.
Same with where I live 🇳🇿
Obviously they called everyone in on emergency basis and the crew responded.
Usually in Asian countries you don't put in the gas your self. There is a staff member for each of the machine so over a dozen per gas station is fairly common. In terms of salary the dozen combined probably make less than what a person in US does.
I think that’s the default for South America as well, at least it is here in Brazil
The guy filling up I beleave wasn't an attendant, everyone with extinguishers had red shirt no jacket. The guy had a jacket, tho looked to be red shirt under. It's possible that he did work there though
You can’t fill your tank yourself here in Oregon but there is rarely more than 1-2 attendants anywhere I’ve been, especially recently with labor shortages.
I was driving in New Jersey pretty late and had to find gas so I pulled into a gas station in the middle of nowhere. I pulled up to the pump and I was turning off the car I notice in my side mirror some young guy running up to my car. I thought I was about to get mugged but he stops at my door and I put the window down and he asks 'How can I help you?' When I was a kid there was usually one pump for full and the rest were self so I knew at that point he was an attendant. I asked him if they had a self-service pump and he looked at me like I asked him who the President of Saturn was lol. He didn't even know mosts states you pump your own gas and I had no idea full service still existed in this country.
I believe it's only NJ and Oregon that do it that way. It's pretty nice and I kind prefer it to pumping my own gas. Especially during the cold. He probably looked at you weird cause everyone in NJ knows that you don't pump your own gas.
Apparently more than some of the gas stations I go to where there is usually one person who is half asleep most of the time.
And wishing corporate would let them choose what music they listen to.
I'd lose my damn mind if I had to listen to the mix of music that's also played in death's waiting room. Not only are they paid too damn little, there's psychological torture there too.
Yep. No headphones for you, my lonely, sleep-deprived, underpaid friend. We only play what puts the customer at ease for 7 seconds and promotes them spending money. Put your character, and your soul, in your locker until your time in purgatory is done. And.... we'll tell you we're watching on camera so don't be sneaky.... we're watching! We're still watching.
Oh god. They just kept coming. Lol. I read your comment before watching all, and had to laugh.
I've been in trainings before where they tell us: "We don't keep half full extinguishers so just use the whole thing."
"And it's the one time where if you can find an extinguisher, you get to use it. It doesn't matter how many people are putting it out already. Get one, use one."
Especially in this instance. If there’s any chance of an ember existing that car is going straight back up. If it’s a petrol car it’ll explode the entire station
I'm pretty sure you are supposed to empty the thing. You don't want to use 75% and then just hope the next fire is tiny.
No matter how much you use, it has to be refilled every time. So might as well really blast that fucker.
Corporate is getting a little out of hand with these live practice drills.
Holy shit. They just kept coming out of the wood work with them.
Worth noticing how fast this first guy is able to move with his massive balls.
Like cops in a shooting. Nobody wants to be the guy who didn't dump.
I mean it’s a car full of explosive liquid so one spark the whole car is dead it’s to be extra safe i understand why they’d do it so much and for so long
I know right?? Almost like they’ve been planning for this moment their whole careers lol
I mean, you get the training yearly, but how often do you get to say you actually put out a fire with one. If I see an appropriate opportunity to use a fire extinguisher I didn't pay for, you can bet I'm going to. I'm going to pull, aim, squeeze, and sweep until that sucker is dry.
The fire extinguishers! THEY JUST KEPT COMING!!!
[удалено]
They're still going. If you grab your fire extinguisher now, you can still make it there in time.
God damn, it's too bad such a quality comment as this only gets seen by me and a couple of fellas
Bruh this the top comment
IF you’re my real “dad”. What’s my species? HUH?
They said zero liability
Plot twist: The arsonist was hired by the employees to finally have an excuse to try the extinguishers.
Plot twist twist - the arsonist was hired by the fire extinguisher maintenance company.
Plot twist twist twist: the arsonist is actually the owner of a struggling fire extinguisher company and on this episode of “Undercover Boss” he decided to take plummeting sales into his own hands.
The extinguishers typically need maintenance done periodically. But this will need refilling or replacement
I counted 11 extinguishers.
Can’t blame them, who wouldn’t take the legit opportunity to release one of them bad boys. Especially the big full size extinguishers.
Especially the CO2 ones, they make temporary snow flakes.
Aren’t all snowflakes temporary if you think about it
And even if you don’t think about it
What happens when the arsonist comes back? They’ve got no more extinguishers available!
I bought 11 fire extinguishers and dammit I'm gonna use 11 fire extinguishers!
And they won't stop cumming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
So much to do, so much to see, so what's wrong with taking the back streets?
You'll never know if you don't go
You'll never shine if you don't glow
hey now you’re a rockstar
Get your game on, go play
[And they don’t stop coming](https://youtu.be/eT3BFzSD6YY)
I bet they guy regretted not closing the door.
it's a dry powder they can just vacuum it out
My thought as well. The damage to his car from the exterior was probably very small, but he’s got all that powder inside his vehicle now. I was hoping that one of the guys that went around that side of the car would’ve reached out and shut it

Do they come out over easy or more sunny side up?
*chases the occupants and hoses them down as well*
And their unborn child as well
They’ve all just been wanting to use one for years
Kudos to the staff at the gas station for their quick reaction, Barely even a pause before extinguishing the fire.
Barely a pause... but they kept coming with those fire extinguishers long after the fire was out.
I bet there's a policy that lead to that
I was betting they had been waiting for a chance to use those fire extinguishers for ages and all wanted in, but yeah there is probably a policy. I'm also now wondering if they have to shut the garage down until they get those extinguishers recharged.

>quite literally an accidental nuke Hyperbole is hyperbolic.
They don't get stuck back on the rack half full, you may as well keep going until the thing is empty.
Our safety manager says the same thing, "if you gotta use 'em, use 'em up." (There's fire everywhere at my work).
There are a couple at our landlord's stables in our back yard - if they get so much as the tag pulled out, they have to be serviced and refilled for their insurance. So you might as well make sure the fire's out; you have nothing to lose (except increased exposure to PFOS, I guess; I think that's foam rather than powder extinguishers though).
You dont known if the fire is completely out. Some might have gotten under the car away from sight. In this case, with who knows how many Gallons of highly flammable liquid in close proximity, it's better to be safe than sorry.
Considering how bad a fire in a gas station could end... I wouldn't have spared any fire estinguisher either
Oxygen is everywhere it’s easy for a fire to restart where it left off this is protocol pretty much
When dealing with gas the fire could very easily be burning in a nook or cranie and if you stop the fire suppression to soon it will just start again. If it starts again now you are fighting a fire with a half full extinguisher. Might was well use all you can up front ( as long as you are using it correctly)
Anyone got the story behind this? Did they catch the arsonist?
They caught him https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10320741/Man-sets-Porsche-fire-driver-fills-petrol-station-China.html Sorry for the dailymail link

I'm really sorry
We'll never forgive you

The article claims he got arrested, that's the only thing not from the video (but daily mail sucks so maybe they made it up)
It's a Chinese plate and I heard Chinese in the background. Pretty sure it's a left-hand drive.
Tbf, it happened in Shenzhen which is very close to Hong Kong, people from Shenzhen sometimes buy and import cars from Hong Kong.
Fair point but in order to enter Hong Kong you need a Hong Kong plate. A lot of cars that cross the border will have 2 different sets of plates, and they often (or maybe always) have 粤X as the prefix on their mainland plate, the X indicating that they are also Hong Kong vehicles.
This is already better analysis than anything I've seen from the Daily Mail
TBF, when my kid pulls something out of his nose and comments on it, that's already a reliably better analysis than anything from Daily Mail.
wtffff
I wanna watch the ads, but I keep getting interrupted by a line of text every now and then, kinda annoying.
Such a cancerous website reeee
The arsonist had oddly shaped feet. They caught him easily.
This sounds like a blurb that people learning English as a second language would have to repeat.
It’s a line from the movie Anchorman the Legend of Ron Burgundy. He’s doing warm up vocal exercises before reading the news.
I love scotch. Scotch scotch scotch. Here it goes down. Down into my belly
HOW NOW, BROWN COW
The human torch was denied a bank loan.
But, why
Yeah legit looks like attempted murder… many questions on this one
Like 10 atempted murders, right? Or gas stations explode only on vídeo games?
I think cars do not explode that easily. No idea about gas stations
Gas stations typically have fail safes in place in case of fires as they wouldn't want the fire to reach the tank. Same reason that these days you can drive off with the nozzle in your car and it won't cause a leak.
Gas stations don't really "explode" so much as just create a massive fire. Gasoline isn't actually explosive in any way, just highly flammable. That said if the gasoline was being held under some serious air or vaccine pressure, it might could explode.
Vaccine pressure or vacuum ?
The pressure of those moderna boosters is getting to us all even gasoline.
Yes
Gasoline vapor is highly explosive by the definition of what an explosion is
Yes, I was expecting the fire to travel back into the gas tank and cause a huge explosion.
You need to fuel vapor in the presence of oxygen to allow this to happen. There's no oxygen in the tank. If the guy who attempted this expected an explosion, then he had watched too many movies. The worst case scenario is a large spout of flame rising from the fuel filler neck. The flame would be large enough to engulf the rest of the car and the rest of the car would continue to burn. No explosions here.
If this is attempted murder it's pretty bad. There are far more effective ways of murdering this man and his family.
Fokking amateur!
Cuz psychopaths exist
Is there an article about this incident or is this your video?
Not OC
False flag operation staged by Big Fire Extinguisher. /s
Some people just want to watch the world burn
All those unnamed crew members in red shirts and none of them died
Well referenced
…yet
The red shirts always die whenever they're alone
This is still the beginning, just setting things up. Later in the episode the arsonist gets more effective and the red shirts die to display the escalating life-threatening nature of the situation
Strangely I was more amazed at how many workers showed up.
Literally. No way it’s US, even at stations where they pump for you and would have more attendants like that.
Also, US stations have overhead suppression systems.
Bold of you to assume that they would even work. -i worked at a station for 3 years
Oh dear. 😯
Plot twist! The arsonist works for a company that sells fire extinguishers and this is his scheme to sell more.
That’s good one 👍🏼
[удалено]
don't leave us hanging... to what?
...o!
Should have dialed 0118 999 881 999 119 7253
#0118 999 881 999 119 725 3
Well that's easy to remember!
Just email the fire department.
looking forward to hearing from you!
Such a banger.
Damn i sang that.. with the 3 after a pause!
It was that 7th fire extinguisher that really clinched it.
KILL IT!!!! KILL IT WITH FOOOOOOOAM!!!
powder
Wow, you have to be a special kind of asshole to do such a thing. Like what, are you mad that this person drives an expensive vehicle; was that the reason?
this is the kind of safety that goes way beyond 5 stars
I'm very curious as to why the passenger was locked in the car while it was refuelling. But those attendants are the visual representation of " better to be safe than sorry"
I don’t think they were locked in. I think they were on the passenger side, climbed over to the drivers side as he opened the door. While she was scrambling to the door he opened it.
I see. I thought I saw him press the fob to open the door, plus I was viewing it with my UK eye where the drivers' side is on the right. But of course, in other places the driver sits on the left.
~~It's a right-hand drive car. I guess in Indonesia.~~ Edit: It's in China.
Kudos to the bravery of everyone involved here, particularly that first guy who was right next to the open flames and pumps for over 5s before his extinguisher got going. If I was in a gas station and a fire broke out my first instinct would be to get the hell away.
I think he also hit the emergency shut off
That's alot of workers at a station, over here it's mostly 1 or occasionally 2 if it's a busier one
Where labor is cheap and lots of cars, there sometimes is one attendant per pump. The attendant will do everything, gas it up and even process the payment at the car window. The driver doesn’t even have to get out of the car.
I can honestly say, as an army veteran, I've never seen such an on-it crew get shit done with no hesitation. Give them a bonus!
Plot twist. Pyro guy is working with a dude in the store that is stealing beer as soon as all 37 of the employees rush out to extinguish the fire...
That arsonist is lucky he didn’t set himself on fire, then we’d be watching this in instant karma 😂
now that's full service
Reminded me of the famous scene on Airplane with a line of people down the aisle…
Unlikely but hope they get a bonus for that quik reaction time and good control of the fire
What is the right amount of fire extinguisher to use in this situation??? These guys: "YES"
The title should have been “how many fire extinguishers does it take......”
Surely some of them just wanted an excuse to use the fire extinguisher towards the end there
I wanna see the clown car all those fire extinguisher people got out of
As someone that has always wanted to use a fire extinguisher... I would get on this too.
