Read first, then watch : Important
READ BEFORE YOU WATCH THE VIDEO
It is well worth watching! And it could save your life
I never realized that a wet dishcloth can be a one size fits all lid to cover a fire in a pan! This is a dramatic video (30-seconds only, very short) about how to deal with a common kitchen fire ...oil in a frying pan. It's a real eye-opener
At the Fire Fighting Training schools they would demonstrate this with a deep fat fryer set on the fire field. An instructor would don a fire suit and using an 8 oz cup at the end of a 10-foot pole toss water onto the grease fire. The results got the attention of the students. The water, being heavier than oil, sinks to the bottom where it instantly becomes superheated. The explosive force of the steam blows the burning oil up and out. On the open field, it became a thirty-foot-high fireball
Inside the confines of a kitchen, the fire ball hits the ceiling and fills the entire room. Also, do not throw sugar or flour on a grease fire. One cup of either will create an explosive force
This is a powerful message----watch the video and rememeber what you see
Tell your whole family about this video. Or better yet, send this to them
