If you were in a burning highrise building with no way out, would you stay and risk burning or jump?

It would depend, is there a chance the fire could be put out, then I would be able to get out?\n\nI guess I would wait until the fire was close, and I knew for a fact I would be burning, then jump.  There would really be no point in waiting for a painful death.

I would jump off a building.  Maybe that will help.

You could die if it erupted

I would have time to land on my feet. I would just feel an adrenaline surge!

you would probably suffocate from the high altitute b-cuz there isnt much oxygen up there.

you would slowly melt in a horrible flaming death. but no, gravity would push you back down for ANOTHER horrible flaming death. yay.

only if you are constantly exposed directly to the towers for very long periods of time. Other than that they arent that dangerous.

Anybody weird enough to go back into a burning building would probably need to get his prozac and his imaginary friend...

I would rather get stuck in Houston evacuation traffic.  At least, I would be trying to do something to improve my chance for survival, whatever the outcome might be.  Being short anywhere is not a nice thing.  Camping outside Walmart to buy a video game is  plainly stupid.  Any grown up person should find for himself or herself a more productive activity.

hypothetically yes. suppose there r high tension electric wires & due to dew electric current passed in air & causes a fire on some paper, trees, oil etc.

I would suggest you stick to your guns and keep blocking them\n\nAfter all, you'd be the first person out and it means less people for the fire warden people to evacuate.\n\nLook after number one!!!..........

Do you think a woman or man should stay in a burning building and HOPE that things will get better?

Yes, you are harmed. You're not falling 10 feet from the door that you just 'jumped' out of. You've been falling since you left the cliff. The only difference is that when you die, it won't be among the ruins of a demolished house.\n\nBTW, you can't jump from the house in the first place. The house is falling and you are falling with it. Jumping requires standing. You and the house are in free-fall. You may be able to guide yourself along the walls using your hands, much like the astronauts do when in a zero-g environment. It's more likely though that you'll be screaming and soiling yourself.

move away from the car. Before it catches on fire.

burn the place down, then nail yourself to a cartwheel and jump over a rainbow

Very much... if there is a couple of boxers boxing in Las Vegas at the MGM boxing field and the huge panel with TV goes down to the floor, exploits next to the competitors and the Nike short that one of them is using gets in fire... the other one would definitely work as a firefighter to turn the fire off...\nLOL... very related...
