CFA's official YouTube channel CFA TV has passed the 1.5 million views mark.

At the time of writing, the channel's 294 videos have been viewed a total of 1,522,053 times.

The channel broke the 1.5 million mark shortly after the upload of the TriTech factory fire video last month.

CFA Digital Media Manager Martin Anderson said video has played an important role in helping CFA engage with the community using new media.

"It's not just about showing the great work that our firefighters and community educators do," he said.

"Video can be a powerful way of engaging people and helping them to learn important safety messages that they might otherwise miss."

The channel was launched in November 2007 and was CFA's first entry into the world of social media. Since then, CFA TV videos have helped grow CFA's online community to close to 90,000 on the CFA Facebook page.

The channel is currently the thirty-third most viewed Reporters channel of all time in Australia.

The top ten most viewed videos since the channel was launched in November 2007 are:

1) P-51 Mustang Crash 05/04/08 - 344,963 views

2) Tiger Moth Plane Crash 15/11/08 - 114,535 views
