Escaping the situation of fire is really a breathtaking experience, only your knowledge can help you in bringing you alive. Some tips that can help in fighting those dreadful situations are:

  • In case your clothes catch fire, lie down on the floor and wrap a blanket until the fire is extinguished.
  • If you face the situation of fire in your office look around for fire extinguishers and try to save yourself and your colleague's life.
  • During fire, rooms get filled with smoke. Don't remain in that room for long and crawl outside.
  • If possible, switch off all electric appliances such as a fan, cooler, lights, etc. to ease the situation. In case these appliances catch fire, the situation will become worse.
