Kieran,An episode of Fawlty Towers demonstrates bad practice when there is not a suitable Emergency Evacuation Procedure in place and practised regularly.Additionally what can happen when there is not a comptent person idenitfied, to be the incident controller.Does get a serious message over all be it being done in a humours manner. Can be Balanced with showing a good Emergency Evacuation Procedure many available from various companys.

Hi, there are very few "real live" video's around. The Bradford City fire is one example and it does give an insight into human behaviour and reaction. I believe there is also one set around a hotel fire in a south american city, sorry can't remember which one. Anything else I have seen are make ups.

There is an old one around called the "front room fire" which is useful in that it illustrates how quickly a fire can take hold and destroy a room. As others have said there is a number of specialised companies around supplying this type of material.
