great video capture. How long did the fireman take to drop that 150ft live-line and actually put water on the fire..? 30 second video showed no action...did they let it burn out to save water.? you should upload the whole vieo onto youtube or video g

As I was stopped in the line up and heard a helicopter, I was praying that it wasn't a medic vac. So glad to hear you were all safe and yet sorry for your loss. Karen

That was my parents 32 foot motor home. It was a total loss, but all 4 of us got out safely.
