Has anyone else noticed how long it takes for the damn storage room on the 81st floor to get consumed with fire? A fuse box blows, a bunch of random rags on a table a few feet away are ignited, and then the movie cuts to Paul Newman arriving (still in daylight) at the home of Susan Blakely and Richard Chamberlain for that short scene where Paul chews out Richard for his cost-cutting measures on the building's wiring. Then it's nighttime (presumably at least an hour later) with the front of the building all lit up for the gala opening party, with William Holden, Faye Dunaway, the mayor, his wife, the senator and all those extras. And then. Paul gets called upstairs, somebody FINALLY sees the smoke coming out from under the storage room door on a monitor, and we get to this scene, which is what, at least two hours since the fuse box blew? This movie's "realism" is Ca Ca.

The problem was the fire was so hot from all those chemicals, it was just evaporating the water. They needed at least two lines on that fire. I don't really understand how it spread so quickly.

Do you have any idea how bad that would hurt? Fire houses have enough pressure to tear skin off.

That stupid security officer sees smoke pouring out from under the door and he runs over and opens it jeez. OJ should have whipped him

You'd be surprised. In some training I saw two workers two workers at UK hotel trying to put out a small fire in a store room, but it quickly spreads and the room fills with smoke, a couple of guesrs died in the fire, all the workers had to do was close the door and the fire service would probably have arrived in time.

Disasters in disaster movies often occur or are made worse because of bad decisions by some of the characters. The ship in Poseidon Adventure may not have capsized if the cruise line’s executive had not ordered the captain to go at full speed.

The building was wired very badly, and clearly, the wiring in the fictional Glass Tower was easily prone to electrical shorts which caused many more electrical fires to break out until the building was engulfed, so keeping the storage room closed would have done no good.

Hyper Trophy Winner exactly thank you. He had said the dumbest movie ever cuz somebody else said it was the best disaster movie ever like respect someone’s opinion.

That’s not true, eventually the fire would’ve burned down the door. Plus Roberts even said fires could break out anywhere if it is was due to the wiring. That’s why there were fires on 65 and 87, along with other stories throughout the Tower.

How did he know it was in a storage room on 81? Newman never mentioned it.

How did Duncan know the fire was on floor 81 if Roberts hadn't said where it was?

Possibly, when the alarms to security initially went off, someone from there notified Jim Duncan about it first - but through the "magic" of movie script writers, maybe he had ESP...

I just take this as indicating that the film cut out a bit of the less important parts of this phone conversation.
