The thought of being in that scenario is frightening.
Blanket is a good tip and I'll try to keep that in mind should the scenario EVER present itself.
For my thoughts on what I saw.. Not sure what the spray is? Jayne was asked what they used to lube the hatch and she just bascially said.. This stuff here in my hand (holding generic spray bottle).
I think if faced with the scenario that required myself or loved ones to leave VIA the emergency escape hatch I'd likely not be taking the time to find a "macadoodle" to hold the window open. My body is likely going to do that as I propell myself through it. I'm sure this would be appreciated by those who are waiting to go out next and any harm or injury as a result will be minor considering the circumstances. I was worried poor jane was going to knock that stick out of the window.
Why don't RV manufacturers put a gas strut on those windows to hold them open? Seems the current standard can be improved upon.
My concern was always my daughter.. My fridge is located central the RV were say it could catch fire.. If I go out one window.. Can't get in the door then how do I gain access to the rear to free my child? I bet she has no clue on how to escape.. I need to show her.. Thank you for bringing that to my attention.. You could have saved a life today!
If nothing else this video has made me realize that getting out or escape routes out and in of the RV should be a major consideration when purchasing an RV. It will be on the top of my list.. NEVER did I consider it before as I'm sure most others as well.
