Fire Drill 3.0

Recently, I saw videos on some door opening trainings (probably for fireman).  It invoked my imagination so I thought why not add to my Fire Drills series.

The videos I saw basically show the viewers how fast a professional can open a hard to open door.  Before seeing those videos, I didn't even know that many types of doors existed.  I guess it make sense since we have such big buildings now.  If a fire was to break out, you really would want to be able to compartmentalize the fire, contain and control it.

I guess during a fire drill, where you are simply practicing how to open a door, you should not be too proud of your time.  In a real emergency, you have to think about whether you should open the door, what is behind the door and react to whatever you see once you open the door.

I guess it's nice to open a door after a fire has been put out and see someone trapped inside, alive; however, it would be sad to open a door to find someone yelling at you for breaking their door when there was no fire in the first place.
