Though dealing with being stuck inside a burning building is a very uncommon scenario, there is now an invention that could help you survive such an event. The Dang Jingwei Firescuba was conceived just for that very scary scenario.
A fairly basic design using a cardboard and carbon filter, it creates a pocket over your nose and mouth to allow easy breathing until the emergency services arrive.
Firescuba is designed to protect people from smoke inhalation in the case of a fire. It is low cost, easy to manufacture, and very thin, which makes it easy to distribute or store at appropriate locations.
Though The Dang Jingwei Firescuba seems like nothing more than a French fry container, it is sure to give you those extra essential minutes of survival until the fire department arrives!
Maybe this is something that all businesses, especially those in high-rise office blocks, should consider.
