Sucks, but closed means closed. If you choose to ignore that and the reasons for the closing, anything bad that happens is on you.

Re: Seven Hikers Killed In Mountain Forest Fire
Is it possible that the fire consumed the oxygen: the fire can burn so fast that it removes all oxygen from the air, essentially suffocating the victim; hypoxia would rapidly ensue, and consciousness followed by death thereafter? It seems like the jean guy is just sitting and chilling, and the girl in the sleeping bag does not seem to have struggled that much to get out of the sleeping bag. If I remember some of the forest fire autopsies that hypoxia has been ruled as the CoD? I know that in some house fires, the noxious fumes of burning fibers can knock someone out as well. What do you all think? |
