Had that Problem today. We were three people. Pot of a friend suddenly caught fire. We asked straight away, if there was oil in the pan and my friend said yes. Now luckily I knew that we should not use water! But then I went blank, how do I extinguish it without water. The pot had no lid, the fire was going up to the ceiling of the stove. I thought maybe towel over it, but that would have just bured. I was like shit - I have no idea how to stop this. Luckily my Hero Roommate was smarter, he quickly took a cloth/ kitchen towel, made it wet(not drenched though) and threw it over the pot which extinguished the fire (dont take this as advice - that might have been a dumb idea). We even had a fire blanket, but it was somewhere on the wall and I never used or really noticed it. So in the moment I did not think of using it. Will get more informed about this stuff in the future - it really can save your ass. These things always happen unexpectedly.

Nice video - interesting to hear how other regions approach kitchen fires with a blanket. In U.S., it is exclusively compressed gas (minimizes clean-up) or dry chemical (messy clean-up).

I suddenly understand why some other fire departments leave comments disabled.

Just watched this after setting fire to a pot with oil! I just held it outside until it burnt out. Now I know what to do next time (but hopefully there wont be!). Great video!

[@wilsjane]

What you did was fine provided that you did not panic, opened the outside door in advance and checked the temperature of the handle before you picked the pan up. People get hurt when they spill or drop the pan. Also, a lot of oil fires occur when people return from a night of drinking and decide to fry some chips. They then forget about it or fall asleep while they are waiting for the oil to heat. When drunk, frying chips can be almost as dangerous as driving a car. lol.

Kitchen fires are a huge hazard - I personally know of two people that died this way: both alone in kitchen with loose clothes & failure to immediately think about smothering flames.

[@wilsjane]

The biggest mistake made with oil fires is people forgetting to turn the heat off. Then when a lid or blanket is placed over the flames, the pan boils over and things get a whole lot worse. Even if you do nothing else, simply turning the heat off will result in the fire slowly dying out. Even if it is not possible to get near to the cooker, turning the gas or electricity off from the supply can save a lot of damage.

[@DBR00]

I was cooking a burger on the stove and just had a flare up. I immediately shut off the gas burner and the fire went out. Also, i had a spatter lid which I removed because the grease from the lid accelerated the fire.

[@liamwatson5125]

It’s actually throwing water over the flames that is the biggest error. Since oil and water don’t mix, water only moves the flames out of the pan to anywhere it can. It can cause horrific injury and damage to the house.

[@pqracord5839]

I used the fire blanket as a normal blanket and now I am on fire. What do I do?

[@liamjaya2985]

Very funny Ethan

BreddyBoi worked thx

[@complex000]

I had to leave the kitchen today while cooking. I remembered this video. Thankfully I took a wooden spoon with me but my wife had other ideas and now I’ve burned my kitchen down and she has welts on her bottom from the spanking.

[@Streamistry]

anyone doin this for school?

[@frenchheng309]

The best y’all can do is use salt to stop the fire. If it’s a kitchen fire you will most likely always have salt around.

When there is an oil fire I just sit on the pan

So you smother it

[@vjmvhvj1102]

"You can stop a fire in a room by sucking all the air out of a room!" "A technology can be is built into a room or a building like an emergency vacuum system , in case of fire, that can suck all the air out of a room ( example the room where there is fire). By sucking all the air out of a room you have gotten rid of the air in the room and therefore the fire disappears. " "This technology also requires that all people and all living organisms exit/leave the room so that room can be closed shut when fire starts in the room.: When the room is closed shut it is air tight (example: door and other things like windows close and form an air tight seal so that no air can get out of room). Once the air tight doors and windows close the special ventilation holes in floor of room (example similar to ventilation holes in the floor) turn on and suck all the air out of the room very quickly." "Example: "If all the air is sucked out of the room that is burning in 1 minute...then the fire stops after 1 minute." "If all the air is sucked out the room that is burning in 30 seconds...then the fire stops after 30 seconds." "Remember the Fire Triangle:" "To have fire you need these 3 things/ingredients:" "Source of heat (example spark like in a gas oven where a spark ignites fire in oven)" = " the thing that starts the fire" "Material that burns (example paper)" "Air ( example oxygen)"...= "the thing that keeps the fire to contiue burning" "Fire depends on oxygen to keep going >,..So by getting rid of the air in a room the fire will disappear" "The fire in the room disappears because you have removed oxygen from the room. Oxygen is one of the key ingredients why a fire keeps on burning...So if you remove or get rid of oxygen in room by sucking all the air out of the room you remove/get rid of the fire."

[@wilsjane]

Even if you had a vacuum pump large enough to suck the air out of the house, the entire building would implode. The force on a single door from the atmospheric pressure outside would exceed one ton. Also, using a commercial vacuum pump designed for use in cold store construction and costing more than £1000.00, it would take about 5 days to remove the volume of air contained in a house, But it would never work, because as the pressure dropped by about 1%, air would be rushing in through gape around doors and windows faster than the pump was drawing it out.

[@smilinglynn9584]

Why not turn off burners first?

[@musicnerd72]

Some stove controls are on the back. The fire may prevent you from reaching them so it's just safer to tackle the fire first.

[@imanshahzad801]

👍

[@ali.a5311]

nice

[@lovelyjubbly7456]

Looks good to me except the advice to take a wooden spoon away with you to remind you you've left stuff cooking in the kitchen. I don't think a wooden spoon will sufficiently remind someone distracted by gripping TV/Video etc in another room. Blanket advice to never leave cooking unattended would be a better bet I think.

[@smilinglynn9584]

And still use a timer.

[@Muck-qy2oo]

Fire blankets aren't recommended anymore, because of the wick effect.

Yanks say it differently “Grease fire” instead of fat fire “Call the fire department” instead of ring the fire services.
