Forest Fire Survival Tips
These are some guidelines on what to do if things do go wrong or if you are confronted with a Forest Fire:
If your fire got out of control, use a piece of clothing or a towel to extinguish the flames. In most cases, using water will be less effective unless you have big buckets of water close by.
Should the fire be beyond your control then stop trying to fight it and move out. You can account for your actions later but at that moment, preserving your life is more important. Just make sure to contact the proper authorities the moment your life is no longer in danger.
Fires generally travel faster in the direction of the wind. In addition, fires travel faster uphill than downhill so take these things into account.
Try to find a natural fire break such as a river or a large empty clearing.
Should you be forced to try to break through the fire, cover your face and mouth with a wet cloth (or dry if no water is available) and run as fast as possible through the flames. Should your clothes catch fire, extinguish them by rolling and padding.
Once you are in safety, notify the proper authorities even if you think someone else might have called in already.
