Why can't I go to my next door neighbors? The only reason this would make sense is if you live in a development or a city-like area. My next door neighbors are at least 175 feet away from my house. Great quiz btw

Also does the flashover (When every surface that can burn does burn at once) occur at the 90 second mark? Just asking because when a flashover occurs, you got 16 seconds.

Yeah this is what happens when a person learning to be a firefighter takes a quiz about a fire situation lol

yes, either that or you inhale too much smoke and lose consciousness. or something explodes and destroys the room you're in. point is you would die after 90 seconds, make it your own

i thought you might like it given your interest in firefighting.

not all neighborhoods are created equal. in my neighborhood, houses are large but on fairly small lots, so even a light breeze risks spreading a fire from one house to the next. even in a neighborhood where houses aren't packed too close, this is a jet fuel fire in a residential house with numerous opportunities for a large explosion to occur, which could launch debris and flammable material to neighboring structures. factor in trees, power lines, parked cars, backyard sheds, and wooden fences, and there are certainly avenues for this fire to spread to the immediate neighbors. better safe than sorry, go across the street and a house or two down

also consider this: if this plane hit a house, it's fair to assume it's a dense-enough area that there wasn't a better nearby open field, empty highway, or even county road to attempt an emergency landing on

Having "Call 911" as a top answer is good. Got me, idk what I was thinking lol

Uh, yes, hello, a plane has broken my roof. It is coming at me fa-

Yeah the 911 call wouldn't matter even if they didn't know yet as the average arrival time of EMS is generally 7-10 minutes in Urban places and 14 minutes in Rural areas

yup. you don't have time to waste fumbling for your phone and trying to place a call while your house turns into a kiln. additionally, a plane going into an emergency descent and prepping for a crash landing would have notified several other people and agencies before it ever hits the ground, and EMS would already be heading towards the predicted crash site. plus, a plane crash would be seen and heard by dozens of others. let your neighbors make those 911 calls.

Bro thinks I live in a city, should definitely call 911, at least dial it

Also tbf, while I know the options tend to be presented in the order you're supposed to do them. There is no specific instructions in the quiz that is has to be such. So calling 911 is still very much a valid option once you leave the house too.

as i said above: “if this plane hit a house, it's fair to assume it's a dense-enough area that there wasn't a better nearby open field, empty highway, or even county road to attempt an emergency landing on”. a pilot going down would only crash in a populated area if he had no opportunity to aim for something empty. so if the area is this densely populated, plenty of people would have seen it and called 911 already. focus on getting yourself to safety

I think the easiest solution here would be just to remove it as an option from the quiz, cause calling 911 irregardless is not an incorrect move. I'm not saying it's always the correct one, I'm saying it's never incorrect.

nah, i like leaving it in there to trick people up. maybe i’ll reword it to “immediately call 911”, because while i suppose you aren’t wrong about how it wouldn’t be a bad idea to call them once you’re to safety, it would be the wrong move to try to call them while you are 90 seconds from death in your house

Rewording it to that would definitely be clearer for your intent with that option, it would be better than how it is currently

Thats weird, I have always heard to try and land on your feet when falling from height.. Can you explain why I shouldn’t?
+1
Level 27
Dec 19, 2025
when falling from great height, like off a high building or from a plane, one of the only pieces of advice that can be given to even marginally increase your chance of survival is to land feet-first, because the lower part of your body will absorb the impact and maybe spare your organs. however, when falling from a moderate and survivable height, it's recommended that you roll when you hit the ground to absorb and distribute the impact, since you don't need to put your legs at risk

A second story jump can injure your legs making you incapable of running away from the fire scene.

good point… let’s assume that if that did happen, your neighbors would help get you away. EMS could totally also be there by that point
