I assumed you meant to post this in GB, so I moved it ^^

Looks like the fire engines are already there, lol.

The image is no longer available.

Clearly someone complained about whatever it was (I'm guessing a really close up view of someone's house).

EDIT: Holy snitzel I've just tried this thing!! You can see it AT THAT LOCATION!!! Good grief!

Privacy anyone? How long has google maps had this ability?

The house is on fire, just press one of the arrows to view the next image and you can still see it.

Oh my God, they actually took a pic of some poor soul's house burning down. That's sad that is, really sad. T-T

I'm pretty sure they just drive around with a camera automatically taking the pictures (probably some contraption on the roof), so what's happening at the time is just coincidental.
