  1. okay, now just relax....don't panic!! That's the worst thing you can do is panic. Panic will cause you to make decisions that you might not make under normal circumstances...okay, now that you have calmed down a bit, the first thing you need to do is assess the situation, okay? Ask yourself "is the fire really all that hot?" If it is, you might want to evacuate the room. Also, you need to think about maybe getting some help, and you have made a wise decision to ask for help here in Answers. Now, if the fire is hot, you next need to determine if you can still see. Can you still see the door or is the smoke too thick? Again, the answer to this question will determine your next course of action. How about breathing? Can you still breathe? If you answer yes, you are in good shape, but if you cannot still breathe, you need to maybe open a window--if you can't breathe you would be in serious danger. Lastly, do you know where your telephone is? You may need to call the fire department and your phone will come in handy. Of course, i'm assuming you have a phone capable of dialing 911--some of those cheaper models have a "9" but they don't have an "eleven". Assuming you are still doing okay, you should survive. After all, knowing how to survive is half the battle. So, now, again, what is the question?


  2. If that ever really happens to you, just get out and call 911

    till then, find some other way to embarass yourself

  3. get out...or stop drop and roll

    oo

  4. get out of the house

    or sit there and Waite for the fire truck

  5. well.. until there is something to really worry abotu when this ACTUALLY HAPPENS, you can get a life on ebay pretty cheap.

  6. use plenty of cover.

  7. Sorry I got here so late!

    Did you save your computer?

    How were the marshmallows?

  8. Walk towards the light!

  9. hide in the attic

  10. If your house is on fire, **GET OUT NOW.** Grab your cell phone and dial 911.

    Also, as you go out, CLOSE ALL OF YOUR WINDOWS AND DOORS IF YOU CAN. It will help deprive the fire of oxygen and stem its spread. Stay low to the floor and protect your lungs from any smoke and high temperature. If your fuse box is outside, shut off all the circuit breakers.

    ESCAPE. CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT before it burns completely. Don't risk your life and try to fight the fire. Your life is more important.

  11. TOAST MARSHMALLOWS

  12. lmao! Call 911

  13. 911

    then get out

  14. on fire? for real? Then all you have to do is open the windows and doors. If there's alot of flam then you have to run of out the house and call 911. Make sure you take every valuable things from your house if you don't have house coverage insurance.

  15. Hi. Umm Maybe you should grab a phone and get out! Once you are out go to like the end of the driveway! Then make a call to your local firestations (AKA 911) Didn't you go to preschool?

  16. thats not healthy

  17. okay then if your house is on fire then you should call 411 for the fire department and then call 911 for information then go to the store and by some beer and marshmellows and start a block party and watch your house burn down

  18. well, for starters. you could get off the computer....

  19. I believe that you should stay away from the fire and hide under you bed because smoke rises. then since your under your bed you will be trapped by the flames and consumed by them. the flames using you like fuel will just become larger and larger consuming your house along with you ( hopefully you don't live in a tree house(cause then you would fall (when your house burns( that might cause injuries ( could lead to death( so run for your life ( out of that tree house( so you don't die))))))). my friend here says that you should smother it with paper and gasoline ( i agree 120% with that idea ( if you do that you have a chance at living)).

  20. Go hide in the closet untill the fire department gets there .
