Posted By jackw. Hi, As there are issues re passing on, copying etc. I think you will find you need to buy your own. The bradford football ground fire is a good example of how fast a fire can spread. It also has the benefit of being a real fire in real time. note of caution there are some "testing" moment in it when you will see people being burned. but it is a very good video for your purpose and for looking at human behaviour/action during an emergency. cheers.

Posted By Phillipe Look up on google the Station Club Fire. The fire started after pyrotechnics ignited the upper ceiling area during a rock concert. It clearly shows what happened and the devastating consequences of people panicking in the melee that swiftly ensued. It lasts a few minutes but just shows in a very short space of time, maybe 2 minutes, what a devastating event it actually was. The whole thing was caught on camera by a member of the audience who managed to escape. Good example of what you are after
