Tanker Blaze: 19 Hour Battle Against Disaster.
Tanker Blaze: 19 Hour Battle Against Disaster. A giant tanker loaded with 135,000 barrels of aviation gas and fuel oil blazes fiercely after a series of midnight blasts. It's only a stone's throw from high octane gasoline storage tanks nearby - in the heart of an industrial and petroleum storage center. Firemen battle for 19 hours to check the flames - whose spread could mean another Texas City-type disaster. Tons of foamite are poured in to smother the blaze. Nighttime scenes of massive fire. Cool silhouettes of firefighters against the blaze. Daytime: Aerial view of ship burning in water, very close to an area with a bunch of gasoline tanks. Fire fighters spray foam and get covered with foam - wow. Variety of views of firefighting.
