Important message - Why Indians die and Americans do not during fire incidents?

Just for information

Many years ago, there was a big fire at a five-star hotel (J. P. Hotel) in upscale Vasant Vihar. So many people died.
But the Japanese and Americans guests at the hotel survived. Why?

Because they put wet towels under the doors so that no smoke enters their rooms.
They put wet handkerchiefs on their faces and lay on the floor, as the smoke moved up.

Most deaths are caused because of smoke inhalation, not fire.
Most Indians in the building jumped out of their windows and many died.

The critical difference has to do with training.
General public should be  made aware of what to do and how to behave in case of fire.

Be Alert, be vigilant, be smart...
Please spread the message so that someones life is saved
