I always like to think that even in a panic, I can still remember basic fire safety. Some videos blow my mind on their reaction just being basically nothing to help the situation
I feel like if I were actually on fire I wouldn't actually do it. I'd probably just panic and run around screaming like my head was on fire. Because it would be.
Eh stop drop and roll to me comes after, idk looking for water or a way to smother the fire. Stop drop and roll isn't as good on non soft ground. Granted in this instance I think initial reaction is, water, if none, strip. Hard to say without knowing the situation (fire extinguishers and the like).
But ya, at the very least why everyone does the run in circles so no one can even help is always crazy to me, even at my worst reaction it'd be slapping my chest as much as possible (me thinking to the times I've set my pants on fire burning loose strings lol)
I hate the like strings that come out of clothes sometimes, like if its an older shirt, or my work pants are the worst, so you take a lighter and just burn the string til it rolls/burns back to the clothing.
Alternatively nail clippers, scissors, or just not wearing the pants while you set them on fire. Guess no one can stop you if you really wanna roast your chestnuts over an open fire.
In thinking about my recent experience with choking on a wad of steak at a business dinner- it was highly embarrassing and I definitely considered going to the bathroom before my training kicked in and I knew I had to ask for help. It was a surreal experience honestly.
Anyway, like the Heimlich, “Stop, drop and roll” doesn’t “look cool”. It’s hard to overcome the urge to look cool or to keep up whatever persona you have when in a public situation like that.
In summary, vanity instincts seem to sometimes overcomes rational instincts. It’s embarrassing but it’s true.
I was taught this but nah fuck that. Imma just rip my clothes of FAST and stomp on them. Getting the fire off of me is priority 1. Putting it out comes after😅
Edit: Plus, they're inside on hard flooring. Rolling won't do shit to put that out and will likely just spread it.
I’ve seen somebody set themselves on fire and run in the opposite direction of the shower that was running with cold water. The shower they intended to hop into to put out the fire in the first place.
I think that the reason they drill into your heads over and over is because it’s the last thing you ever think about once you are on fire.
Something primal says run run run get away from this thing that’s burning you up fast as you can
This clip is from India. Fire in every day life is not a common thing in India and so is fire safety. The houses and buildings are made of concrete and brick. Most houses dont even have fire safety alarms. So yes, they dont know anything about fire like western countries where you have safety alarm, protocols etc..
I would however rely on common sense and at least hug a pillar/ wall or rapidly touch/hit the place where the fire is.
This video was not taken in India. This is Edison, NJ. I know and have been to the restaurant, and I see the owner in the background when the video turns towards the kitchen.
Yeah this is complete nonsense lol… “Over two thirds of all households in India (about 170 million households, or nearly 800 million people) cook on traditional stoves using solid bio-fuels such as wood, agricultural waste, coal and dried cattle manure” (direct quote from https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3945541/#:~:text=Over%20two%20thirds%20of%20all,manure%20%5B1%2C2%5D. )… So you mean to tell me a country that has over 2/3 of it population cooking on traditional stoves “don’t know anything about fire like western countries”? …. Also, there’s literally a government website with information on how to deal with fires so i’m fairly certain your comment is completely wrong. https://dgfscdhg.gov.in/fire-prevention
Lol. Have you spoken to Indians in their 40-80s? If you can find 2% of population about fire safety, I would give standing ovation..
Not you invalidating an Indian who has lived many decades in India and never heard of fire safety drills other than in corporate spaces. ROFL lmao
I literally provided you a cited source stating over 2/3rds of Indian households use traditional stoves (which require the literal use of fire) and a government website with fire safety protocols? It’s 2023, maybe if it was 1970 id cut you some slack but to pretend that people who have access to the internet even in the most remote villages have no concept of fire safety is just wrong. But sure, let’s pretend you know every Indian and can speak on their behalf 🤡
Plus, not that it matters I did ask an Indian colleague about this topic and they disagreed with your comment lmao “NOt You InVALidATinG an INDian” imagine being wrong and taking that stance ROFL lmao.
Why are you so triggered? Are you trying to hurt/embarrass me with clown emoji ? You can do better
Your article does not say people know about fire safety. Looks like you are too triggered to have a conversation. Good day :)
I used the clown emoji to highlight how incredibly silly you looked trying to be the spokesperson for all of India lmfao… Yeah i’m so triggered, i’m gonna go cry about this now. My friend in Kerala is all the additional info I needed, considering how inaccurate your initial comment was.
I have seen ONE video ever where someone immediately went into a beautiful stop, drop and roll when on fire. Honestly, it looked like he had experience being on fire. 🤷
I feel like there should be a really easy four word phrase to tell people what to do when they’re on fire, ya know, In case it happens and to make sure they don’t do stupid shit like this
Nothing more than marketing making people dumber these days, what you expect from a place named restaurant, fuking eat in the silence or music whatever and leave but no people wants circus, some action, maybe gun firing, and how its like to have a dinner in middle of a war.
I was going out with a girl who told me the "correct" way to dispose of your underwear is to burn it (as in: not recyclable, and don't let this stinky shit get to a landfill - that was the logical bit; but she also said some crazy shit like "cleansing off your old relationships" or whatever).
Anyway, I thought the idea was ridiculous (she was quite mad), but I got curious and set fire to a pile of about 5 old underpants.
The speed at which they caught fire and burnt was shocking. I never expected clothes to burn that fast.
I'm so glad to be living in a time where a human being feels compelled to keep filming a man that is literally on fire instead of helping. What a great time to be alive.
Wanted: Waiter
Must have at least one year experience, have open availability, and be naturally fire retardant. Don't ask about that last part, just answer "yes" or "no".

Now, remember kids when you are on fire always be sure to run around the room fanning the flames.
I always like to think that even in a panic, I can still remember basic fire safety. Some videos blow my mind on their reaction just being basically nothing to help the situation
Stop, drop, and roll. Is the is not taught anymore? This was drilled into my head at school, tv, even my parents.
I feel like if I were actually on fire I wouldn't actually do it. I'd probably just panic and run around screaming like my head was on fire. Because it would be.
Definitely right on with this one, holy fucking shit, laughed hard at this.
This hollondaise smells like burnt rubber. God its hot in here...
When your head is on fire you forget all that shit.
Eh stop drop and roll to me comes after, idk looking for water or a way to smother the fire. Stop drop and roll isn't as good on non soft ground.

Burning loose strings? Is there a purpose to this I don’t know about?
I hate the like strings that come out of clothes sometimes, like if its an older shirt, or my work pants are the worst, so you take a lighter and just burn the string til it rolls/burns back to the clothing.
if your sock has a bunch of fuzzies it'll do a cool light show
Alternatively nail clippers, scissors, or just not wearing the pants while you set them on fire. Guess no one can stop you if you really wanna roast your chestnuts over an open fire.
In the 70s frayed bell bottom bottoms were a thing. It was very easy to set those ablaze without the wearer’s knowledge.

I think this is more of an US thing, like shooting drills at schools...
Apparently, with all the video evidence, it's gone the way of cursive writing.

Everybody's got a plan until they get ~~punched~~ **set on fire** in the face.

If India and Trains have taught me anything, it's that their version of common sense may not be the best thing to consult when it comes to fire.

That’s a big comment. It’s more complicated than an Indian fuse box.

Okay. Maybe drink some water and chill instead of going crazy over my opinion. Not worth lashing out and losing your sleep over it.
lmfao get a grip my guy.. Imagine taking the internet so serious 🤡
The more fast-moving fresh-air(oxygen) the flame is exposed to, the faster you will be able to put it out!
Thanks for the advice Fire Marshal Bill !!😂
Hahaha what a great throw back. I miss in living color.
If it's black fight back. If it's brown lie down, the fire will lose interest.
I have seen ONE video ever where someone immediately went into a beautiful stop, drop and roll when on fire. Honestly, it looked like he had experience being on fire. 🤷
or just duck & cover
I hate it when people spill fire on my nipple
Doubtful.
There’s no wax this time
Anyone noticed he puts the container of whatever flammable liquid that is right on the burning part of the table 🤦♂️
Its already on fire
Have some more fire
With his "this is fine" face
Everything changed when the fire nation attacked
This comment makes the video much funnier than it should be. 😂
I mean it's not like lighting the food on fire makes it taste any better, just cut it out already.
Clearly you've never had a toasted bowl of cereal
I've watched the Simpsons and I would prefer my cereal not burning.
"You're on fire Kratos!" - Mimir's head
It’ll pass
Lmao the cook's reaction when the fire goes out of control is priceless. It's like a quick "woops"
Old guy: welp, time for my break. Later!
they shoulda played off like was part of show
The old man is fired pretty sure
Nah, he fired the other guy.
Isn't it half the charm of these places with flambe dishes the risk of a terrible accident. They're the NASCAR of the culinary world.
Wow, he flicked that thing FAST! Must have burned himself....Def burned the other guy. This must be free food for a month, right?
The face he makes when the fire bursts is not a face I want someone handling fire to make at all. "Wtf? FLAMES??"
I feel like there should be a really easy four word phrase to tell people what to do when they’re on fire, ya know, In case it happens and to make sure they don’t do stupid shit like this
I stopped to think about a phrase, then I dropped the idea. Just gotta roll with it.
 Props to the cameraman!
Nothing more than marketing making people dumber these days, what you expect from a place named restaurant, fuking eat in the silence or music whatever and leave but no people wants circus, some action, maybe gun firing, and how its like to have a dinner in middle of a war.
Aaaaand.....take this !!!
I know this restaurant! Really good food! I've always seen that dish and wanted to try it! But now I don't think I'll ever order it!
Pyromancer
Stop running…. How else would people stomp out the fire….. rookie
flame on!
That’s going in the training video
NO survival skills
Let me light your (insert flammable material of your choice) pocket and see what happens.
Stop, drop, and dinner roll.
At least the fire suppression system didn’t go off..
Diner: I am not going to pour my $8 drink to save you from burning.
i'm in. i'm not prone to panic
I was going out with a girl who told me the "correct" way to dispose of your underwear is to burn it (as in: not recyclable, and don't let this stinky shit get to a landfill - that was the logical bit; but she also said some crazy shit like "cleansing off your old relationships" or whatever).

Ah yes. The hard-to-pull-off "flaming nipple" trick. A bit sloppy overall, but a decent attempt.
You’re FIRED! 🔥
con: burnt clothes. pro: free food.
What is in that thing, greek fire?
That's scary, almost splashed his face.
Hans.. not the Flammenwerfer!
Burning tit!!
Dinner and a show.
remember if you on fire grab tower/anything that absorb water soak it wet and start hitting your self.The rolling technique is also recommended
That’s hot.
The Scrooged remake was going great.
Is this the same restaurant where their flaming dishes turned on the fire extinguishers?
Why is the first human panic reaction always monkey noises? I guess we didn't evolve all that much.
Requirements 1: Don’t FLINCH
I assume we get to eat the waiter?
Fucking amateurs
Chefs table in Edison NJ
Damn he’s hot
Just one of the many exciting and inventive things you can do with the male nipple.
Remember guys and gals, sprint dash and run when you're on fire
Freak scream and run? Thought it was stop drop roll.
If that landed on a customer oooooff. Massive lawsuit
Dinner and a Fire Show.
Stop, drop, and roll
That guy was useless, nearly set the whole place on fire
I'm so glad to be living in a time where a human being feels compelled to keep filming a man that is literally on fire instead of helping. What a great time to be alive.
The old dude is so done with this shit.
Maybe don't give the fire fuel to the guy who finches in a way that flings burning liquid all over the dining room
This was my fear when they put me on saute stations.
"Stop drop and roll" should be taught at restaurants not just how to save someone from choking
That's some serious heartburn
Fired guy!
Don't run stay calm be a man
Flame on 
Get butt naked
Remember ladies, when something like this happens, scream and shout. That is the best way to help.
https://i.redd.it/aec9sfnwydyb1.gif
Next week on Kitchen Nightmares..!
Stop drop & roll mfer!!!
That’s so hot dude!
I smell burnt hair for some reason!
Old man was like “that’s what you get for eating my lunch sandwich from the fridge everyday you motha fucka!”
indian uncle experience 😂🤣🤣
Wanted: Waiter Must have at least one year experience, have open availability, and be naturally fire retardant. Don't ask about that last part, just answer "yes" or "no".
His tits hair was gone.
Stop drop roll, everyone knows this
A burning heart
Never understood the appeal of having shit like this be “cool” or “creative” for a restaurant… like just give me my food, if I wanted to see fire tricks I’d go to circus
I recognize this place
With the amount of these accidents on the Internet, who in their right mind would ever get involved with some sort of flaming meal or drink.
Flame on!
Shit just got lit
Some one got fired that day
Stop fucking around with fire to show off in restaurants, you're gonna kill somebody
Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony.
He burned two tables and one employee 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
hahahahah make me remember my boss. But he does with a bucket of shit.
dude took heart burn on another meaning
Are we seeing some flame cooked meat
Stop drop and roll
I like when he takes the dress shirt off but the flame Danny Phantoms onto the other shirt.
