This picture was labeled as “safety-fire-training”, no kidding. This appears to be some sort of flammable liquids fire training by the looks of the props and their technique.As we can see, they are wearing standard jeans and long sleeve t-shirt for personal protection along with adjustible sports hat for head protection. It is difficult to tell, but there might be leather boots for foot protection.
I’m not exactly sure what they were thinking or let this happen, but it looks like some folks just begging for trip to the burn unit. Please, if you see someone doing this, stop them and explain what they are doing and the risks with how they are training.
This is where those who have the knowledge and expertise need to get out and help these places to TRAIN RIGHT, not just train. Stay safe and make a difference.
