  • Rollover= what you saw

    Flashover= when the fire in the room is so hot that everything in the room starts to ignite

    Backdraft= when fire self extinguishes or nearly extinguishes but has no oxygen, retains the heat, then when oxygen is introduced it explodes back to fullyinvolved fire.

  • yes EXCEPT, you cannot have a backdraft in a well ventilated area.

see all

  • @chevyrulzs2010 wrong. go back to school.

  • you better check twice what you're talking about.

    see wikipedia "Rollover (fire)"

  • That was funny! Say sommore.

  • Okay, I got the marshmallows and the graham crackers, who brought the chocolate?

  • WRONG! they're 3 completely different things in simple terms a BACKDRAFT is when theres a closed room in wich the fire has been burning for some time and has begun to die because of insufficient oxygen which produces gases in the room that are super heated the whole room is past ignition tempature and you open a door feeding oxygen to the faint fire to complete the fire triangle (you need oxygen,heat,fuel to have fire)reigniting the fire in the hot vapor and boom! and yes thats in simple terms

  • SCBA anyone?

  • lol... yay!
