Fire is HOT! Heat is more threatening than flames. A fire's heat alone can kill. Room temperatures in a fire can be 100° at floor level and rise to 600° at 👀level. Inhaling super-hot air will scorch your lungs. Your clothes can melt to your skin. #FireSafetyTips #FirePrevention

Fire is DEADLY! Smoke & toxic gases kill more people than flames. Fire uses up the oxygen you need & produces smoke & poisonous gases that kill. Breathing small amounts of smoke & toxic gases can make you drowsy, disoriented & short of breath. #FireSafetyTips #FirePrevention
