[xxbigt206xx]

I feel for the owners. That happened to my family on the way to Florida one year.

[redyoshi1985]

I have a 1976 Coachmen Cabover Camper.. I am currently on the road Staying in.. I was wondering how much time I have in the event of a Fire.. Just how much time I would have to escape.. I have done some Reconstruction on the Camper and it seems that it is constructed out of.. Man it's almost like Balsa wood it seems.. thin little 1 by whatevers and very thin Plywood. I have a fire Extinguisher and smoke detectors. I have 2 exits a top hatch, The front door. How fast do these go up? anyone know

[SuperOffgrid]

@redyoshi1985 very fast. It's not the flames, but the toxic smoke that would be produced and quickly kill the occupants.

[redyoshi1985]

@SuperOffgrid yeah I would Imagine so. A lot of plastic, fiberglass, etc not to mention particle board and linoleum. I have the fire extinguisher close by, and I have smoke detectors. I am always worried about the gas furnace though. The way Coachmen designed it the furnace is built into a wooden cabinet. It doesn't seem to have much protection from heat. scary...

[incubus5630]

[Max1Chase1]

This is what happens when you always run your refrigerator on propane instead of electric when you are away

[johnnnyreb51]

By the location, I would say it was the gas water heater. Or the stove.

[farfrompukin1974]

That'll ruin a camping trip for sure!

[EasternMerchant]

[Tr2u1ck]

@hvfd122 if the description is correct, its in Nelson, BC (Canada)

[kawasakikx250ff]

nice video!

[impleasen]

@DudeWithaPage yeah the insurance company

[gerard12668]

what a shame....I hope the owners had insurance and the coach was repaired.

[dmelkumo]

@gerard12668 repaired??? hahah yeah sure

[gerard12668]

@dmelkumo when coaches and buses burn here in Australia they are repaired....A bus where my brothers work was destroyed by fire and its in the workshop getting repaired now so yes they can be fixed...But I rather get the insurance pay out then get it fixed it would never be the same.....

[fyrbryce66]

[tmtvbctv]

We were driving by and there it was, on fire, It's great visuals for YouTube. It was not used for TV news broadcast.
