1970s Fire Safety Video

This video was made around 1973 or 1974. When you see the story of "Mark"... I'm the little brother playing on the floor. That's my real family in that segment. This video was produced by the Shriners Burns Institute in Galveston, Texas. They do wonderful work there. Also includes an intro by Apollo 13 astronaut Fred Haise.

What is the music at the start of this? It is some classical stuff, but what? I like this song but don't have a clue as to what it is called. Thanks if anyone can answer this.

Oh, I also hope your brother is doing well. That's a tough story and good one to think about.

Was this shown in schools? It looks very much like a film I saw in nursery school (1977-78); it was a long time ago, but those images of burning dolls and kids with bandages and burns are hard to forget.
