I like to think I have it pretty down now, but definitely the first time I was, you know, freshly minted European migrant.

You can close your windows and doors. It's amazing how much difference closed doors even internally make in fire spread. There are plenty of videos you can watch about this online, but it's amazing how much different it makes having those closed. But you don't want to lock your front door. Like, you're going to see a lot of stuff about looting.

Have it. Yeah, yeah. Lucky you. I hope you don't get burned. Yeah. Compared to if a firefighter needs to enter that house to prevent it burning down, it takes a meaningful amount of time to break down a door. Yeah. And you can save that time by leaving it open.
