The above video shot from a Los Angeles County Fire Department helicopter at the Woolsey Fire as it flies near the coast at Malibu, California is very impressive — especially if you watch it in full screen.
I certainly feel for the residents of the homes seen in these images.
The next two videos show the LA County helicopters borrowing water from residential swimming pools. I expect the homeowners are more than willing to give up some of their water if it can help save their residence.
Thanks to homeowners swimming pool providing water for @Sikorsky #Firehawks on #WoolseyFire in #Malibu Multi agency response @LACOFD @LAFD @VCFD @CAL_FIRE @LASDHQ to name a few. #Teamwork from all agencies and units. @LACoFDPIO pic.twitter.com/US69KTElJo

LA County FD helicopters are supporting firefighters on the ground 24-hours a day.
As of 3:20am, the aerial fight with helicopters continues. We’re rotating flight crews and aircraft to maintain coverage over the fire. Our maintenance team is doing a phenomenal job. We’re all in this together. #WoolseyFire @LACoFDPIO @VCFD_PIO pic.twitter.com/14amWQDN2w
