Your checklist
-
Get low
Smoke is poisonous and more deadly than flames.
If you breathe smoke for more than a few breaths it can kill you.
-
Be fast
A house fire can kill you in less than three minutes.
Don't spend time trying to save possessions.
-
Close doors
A closed door buys you time.
It slows down the spread of fire, giving you more time to get to safety.
-
Get out - stay out!
People have died by going back into a fire.
Don't leave the meeting place to go back inside for any reason.
