No one in Hollywood or on YouTube recalls this. Everytime i see someone on fire I shout "STOP DROP AND ROLL" at the TV, but they just stand there and flail like morons.
Maybe the wording...
CEASE
PLUMMET
ROTATE
would definitely get my attention.
CEASE
dies
well that's great, how the fuck am I supposed to do the other two now?
The plummeting should take care of itself from that point. You might need assistance with the rotation though.
"look at this mf, dies and doesn't even have the courtesy to fall down"
Fortunately, enflamed beings often are already in motion, so ceasing immediately should provide some rotation
You remember this until the day you die. You forget about it in the morning and burn to death in the afternoon.
Standing there, engulfed in flames, thinking "Goddamn it, I know I know this, but what is it? Jump around? No, that cant be right. Sonofabitch, if I dont remember soon, Im gonna be in real trouble."
Has anyone ever used this advice in real life?
I was on fire once and definitely forgot this in the moment, but my friend in the room remembered, shouted the instructions, and when I tried it, it worked quite well. got off with very minor burns and ruined pants
I also ruined my pants when I accidentally caught myself on fire.
