Fire behaviour: Backdraft • In this backdraft demonstration video via @strongthing_strongerfringe you see a slow motion backdraft recorded at FSC Moreton. It allows you get a greater perspective this fire phenomena. • As oxygen is re-introduced to the under ventilated fire it’s able to burn more efficiently again.

Understanding Backdrafts: The Hidden Explosion🔥 What you can’t see can still explode. Always respect the signs — and let trained firefighters handle enclosed fire situations. Backdrafts are among the most dangerous fire phenomena firefighters can encounter. They occur when a fire has been smoldering in a closed or confined space, running out of oxygen. When fresh air suddenly enters, oxygen mixes with superheated, unburned gases, triggering a violent explosion that can blow out windows, doors,
