Question
what should you not do if a persons clothes suddenly catch fire?
a) wrap a fire blanket around a standing person
b) splash them with a bucket of water
c) stop them and smother the fire by rolling them on the floor
d) drag them under a safety shower
When a person's clothes are on fire, wrapping a fire blanket around a standing person is dangerous. A standing person can still inhale flames or hot gases, and the fire may spread upward toward their face/upper body more easily. The correct actions involve smothering the fire (rolling on floor) or using water (bucket or safety shower) to extinguish it, as these cut off oxygen or cool the fire.
