Where were the SAM's?
..... the flame just got bigger so I just said, 'Let's get out of here'.
It's cool headed firm decisions like that in a crises situation, which show leadership qualities that can avert a tragedy.
We export our heavy hitters.
Are NZ barbecues as serious as this?
I once watched a Kiwi try to light a BBQ in a pub beer garden with a pint glass of petrol (he'd been warned not to but said he'd done it before and couldn't be prevented from doing it). I saw it coming so moved a couple of tables back. Pint-glass upended onto already lit BBQ, 10-foot fireball, hedge and fence ablaze, BBQ not doing any better than before. Bloke was lucky to escape injury tbh.
"BBQ not doing any better than before" Lol, quality.
Brings this video to mind.
"You're only supposed to blow the bloody doors off"
couldn't be prevented from doing it
I think I'd have had a good try.
Still more effective than the glasgow airport gas-can brew-up attack.
Thing is, it's all about timing- if they'd done this at 3am at the reading festival, nobody would have batted an eyelid. After a while maybe someone'd come by and throw on some more gas cans.
Mr Johnstone, who is in London on holiday, said the canister exploded with such force that it blew the roof off the barbecue area.
Only the barbecue area? Looking at the proximity of the flats... 😯
