SOME TIPS IF YOU’RE TRAPPED:
#1. If you panic, you only decrease survival chances. Never open a door without feeling it first for heat. Use the back of your hand to test for heat. If the door is hot, try and seal the cracks. Look for a phone, or a fire alarm. Look for water sources to wet yourself down. Look for wet rags to breath through. Look for a window to ventilate the room. Try not to feed the fire oxygen. People have survived jumps, usually not fires.
