    It is so fast it almost seems contrived.

    When I lived in Torrance California I once talked with a fire station chief. It seems that a building across the street from his fire station had burned to the ground in the middle of the night. His excuse was "No one called it in to my station last night". I wonder where the station chief's personnel car was parked?
    Seeing the guys in that video appearing so fast must mean that the fire stations are taking a little more self initiate these days.
    Looks like the building to the left of the one that fell down is about to fall down as well.

    I'm thinking an alarm went off, someone started filming and caught the collapse.
