Mac the Fire Guy does fire safety seminars at a lot of rallies and we highly recommend you attend if you ever have the chance. This was the fourth time I sat in and I have learned something new every time.
Of course, we were not at a rally, but our park (Sundance 1 RV Resort in Casa Grande, AZ) invited Mac to give his presentation to its residents.
Linda's first mistake was standing WAY too close to the fire. And then a non-functioning extinguisher was her second mistake.
Mac demonstrated the new technology foam extinguisher (manufactured in Fayetteville, GA) and it was clear why it was the proper choice for fire protection. We learned this many years ago in another of Mac's seminars so we have three in our coach and one in the car. This time I learned I should also have one in the propane bay - since it is never locked it is always available in an emergency.
Mac uses diesel fuel mixed with gasoline in his demonstrations. You can really feel the heat when he gets a big conflagration going! Thanks again to Mac for sharing and educating.
New information gleaned from our fourth seminar: feel free to spray yourself with the foam to minimize burns while trying to escape a fire.
