Australia fires: Footage shows speed fires can spread

This shocking footage shows a fire truck being completely enveloped by an extreme Australian bushfire - due to a 100kph change in wind.

Dunmore Rural Fire Brigade had a dash cam fitted to one of their vehicles when a fire swept through Shoalhaven, south of Sydney, Australia on January 29.

The clip sees the people, who were trying to protect residents’ property, fleeing from the incoming fires that had been quickly switched paths due to a change in wind. What follows is an inferno of biblical proportions as the flames and embers swallow trees and vegetation.
