That fire is neither wild nor large. And it looks like a burning oil spill. I've never seen a brushfire produce black smoke like that.

That's a gnarly looking fire, pretty intense to be so close to it like that. I can imagine if it gets any bigger, they'll have to shut down that highway fairly soon. Also, way to pass by a cop blatantly filming on your phone.... #badass

Haha nothing's even torching out. This will be my fifth summer fighting forest fires, seen some pretty intense/awesome stuff. I wish I had a gopro in some of the times

they shut down all access to the meadowlands area.....I think it had to be like a cigarette or something like that since it was so close to the highway. This never happens in this area or for that matter the northeast in general. Real sketchy to happen
