I agree. With a fire burning, it's releasing a lot of deadly fumes. Get out as quickly as possible. Even if you break or sprain an ankle it will be worth it to get get away from the fire.
I think many of have seen RV fires posted on the forum. They burn hot and fast.
I saw an RV burn one day, in person. Was leaving the drug store and saw the flames across the intersection. I was less than a block away, and up on a hill, so could clearly see. Traffic was backed up and not moving. It was incredible how fast that thing went up. Scarey. Luckily the person and their pet got out safely.
