4 things you should never do in a fire

The dangers of a fire go without saying and everybody knows that you need to escape as soon as possible, but not everybody knows that there are some very important things you should avoid doing in order to keep yourself and others safe in a fire.

Breaking windows – Breaking open windows allows the fire to gain more access to oxygen which helps the fire grow, which would greatly decrease your chances of escape.

Opening hot doors – it could be even more dangerous on the other side.

Hiding – Please don’t do this, it makes it harder for you to be found when rescue services arrive.

Returning for your belongings – Nope, you’re not James Bond, your life is more precious than any inanimate object.

Here’s what you should do instead;
Call for help
Use a fire extinguisher
Run!!!
