The photos did not show my rig. I am a photographer and grabbed these after I pulled the guy out of the truck, as he was still trying to get things out of it, right as some propane tanks started going off. It happened too fast to do anything. The fire started in the engine compartment of his truck and then spread to his 5th Wheel. I sold the photographs to a newspaper syndicate, these are some of them.
If the owner of the rig had Fire Extinguishers available, at the truck, he could have put out the fire before it spread. Ironically he was a retired Fireman from my home state. So it can happen to anyone or some know more than the rest of us.
