When the devil is at your back chasing you out of the motor home, the last thing you wil be thinking about is where you put the extinguisher , rope, or anything of value. Everything can be replaced but your life..EVEN YOUR DOG, CAT or other PET.
With that said and having some Experiance teaching children how to survive a fire and get out alive, some advise.
1. You are on your own....
2. Close your bedroom door... (sleep with the door closed) very important will buy you time from smoke..
3. Drop out of window..only superman jumps....hold on to bottom of window HANG AND DROP. Normal person is 5'7"..... Even a fifth wheel is only 9'? You will fall maybe 36" 3ft? Give or take a few inches. In a home it will be about 10' between floors.
Tomorrow go outside of your bedroom window and reach up and see how far you will fall.
Never underestimate how fast a fire can spread. Remember good air is as low as the toilet seat. You have to get lower than a toilet seat and crawl that low to get out.
We tell children to get out do not try to save there dog, cat, mommy,daddy,brother or sister..YELL SCREAM MAKE A LOT OF NOISE to wake everyone else but you are ON YOUR OWN. Go to your meeting place and Stay there!!!!!!! DO NOT GO BACK INSIDE!!!
Sounds cruel and cold but there are no do-overs..you become an adult in a instant.
Look at Jim's pictures, study them. Look at the plastic hanging..TOXIC..look at the burn pattern..
Class over now do your homework... Please!!!!! Do your homework!!!!
