Re: Woman Jumps from Burning Building
Might have had a better chance if she was facing the building. I’ve never seen someone scale a building or mountain and try to face the opposite way. Would have still been a deadly descent for anyone.

Re: Woman Jumps from Burning Building
Yea, I gotta believe that was her intention. It's just too bad firefighters couldnt get to her in time. It must've gotten way too hot to hold out any longer. One thing im going to take from this video though, if im ever living in a building like that... im installing rock climbing equipment and a shit load of rope in that bitch. |

Re: Woman Jumps from Burning Building
Anyone know if the bathtub shower hose through the toilet trick would be effective in this situation? Assuming you can’t get to the fire exit or stairs. The window on a skyscraper with no ledges or fire escape is a poor design choice.

Re: Woman Jumps from Burning Building
I assume you mean submerging yourself in bathtub water and using the hose to breathe so you can remain underwater. I would think that the fire would destroy the hose but wouldn't it also make the water unbearably hot?

Re: Woman Jumps from Burning Building
I thought she WAS facing the building, when she lowered herself down onto the ledge at least—I don't even see how that would have been possible otherwise.

Re: Woman Jumps from Burning Building
I don't know the entire story. But I can’t help but wonder if she could have been saved if people thought about saving a life instead of filming or just watching. Maybe with her being so high it wasn't possible to get to her. But if someone happened to make it to the window below, she had a chance. And if people live in these high rise buildings. It would probably be a great idea to have plans for this. Like you can't get out of your apartment, as crazy as it sounds. Maybe anchor a rope to something strong by your window. At least you could get to a floor or two lower. Fucking sad. Imagine if she had a bunch of kids in there. Man, that would be incredible if she was throwing kids out the window attached to ropes. Like fucking super mom. |
