fire drills
did a mandatory fire drill last week at my workplace .It included a guy from the fire dept. throwing a app. 1 litre camping gas container in a vat with burning fluid inside a steel container 2x2 m with the door slightly ajar.
Standing at 5 meters distance I could feel the heat wave as it went ,and there was a surprising bang -but the main thing was the flames- the flame from the explosion covered the whole of the containers inside and still licked out of the door and app 1-2 meters into the air.They only lasted like 2 sec -but I gotta say that inside a room or vehicle you would be very nastily burnt all over if present at the pop.
