"If a plane flies through smoke, does it drop?" 6:02 Yes, it does. I am a pilot and I have flown over a smoke stack of an industrial complex, about 500ft above the stack. The plane didnt "drop" or fall out of the sky but what was experienced was severe turbulence. The rising heat and density change of the air made the plane shake violently for a split second. Thanks for the video.

I experienced a backdraft at a house fire in 1965 when I was a firefighter. I kicked the front door open, saw super heated gases glowing and swirling on the ceiling. The house sucked air in. I could feel and hear the air rushing in past me. I turned to leap off the porch, but was blown off. I escaped unscathed.

I was a full time Fireman for 30 years, an indication that a backdraft is imminent, is to look for 'pulsing' of the smoke coming out of the building, just about visible in these scenarios although not very clear at all. I was once doing 'flashover' training and actually inside a container on fire just like this, after we extinguished the fire, I looked at the temperature recording equipment, it showed 520 degrees celsius at head height, we were lower than a snakes belly putting it out!

I along with so many others have had a flashover, not a backdraught, pass completely over my head to curl down the wall behind me. Your friend is your PPE and your hose. You MUST keep the water on. Drop the hose and try to exit and you probably won't make it without serious injury. All you can do it keep cooling the air until the gases have burnt off. It is terrifying the first time and not much better in subsequent events. The lazy orange flame covering the ceiling is quite spectacular. Prior to the issue of flashoods and Nomex gloves to us in the 80's hand and facial burns, especially the ears, were very common. Even with the hoods and gloves you would still boil in your own sweat and suffer heat syncope. We lost a young guy from one of my old stations in Greater Manchester after he suffered debilitating heat syncope and dropped on his way out. Absolutely tragic, a fire started by two young girls messing about burning brochures outside and pushing them under an external door to a hair dressers. Fire can be quite beautiful especially filmed in slow motion but we obviously never forget just how deadly that beauty can be. Thank you for demonstrating the dangers we face.

Here in the US, we are big fans of Hickory wood flavor in our food. I worked at one of only two locations that made a product called "Liquid Smoke". I was a furnace operator there burning 8 tons of hickory chips in an 8-hour shift. Basically keeping the furnace right at 5 to 15 seconds away from a backdraft event. Looking back, I guess I was a bit of an expert/fire teaser at creating the perfect environment for backdrafts, without letting it actually have one occur. We had a very tall smokestack with metal walls inside over each furnace. Suspended inside were racks of wires hanging from top to bottom of the stack. Wires were connected to antique X-Ray machines which created a very high electrical field between the wires in the stack. Smoke gets thick enough and the electrical discharge made the smoke attract to the walls as an oily, resin-like deposit. Gravity and heat collected this Liquid Smoke at the bottom of the stack and then when my barrel got full I would pump it out to an above-ground storage tank for processing at another facility to make the food flavorings and extracts. Our wall phone, opposite the furnaces, was a frequent victim of the backdrafts. Even though it was 20 to 30 feet away, Salvador Dali would have used that melted thing in his artwork without hesitation! When the furnace DID belch fire from a backdraft, your best choice was to just fall back and let it go over you. Quite a sight to see, and an attention-getter there mates! Between the flames, smoke, and high voltage electricity, it was a very dynamic job experience, to say the least!

This happened to our department and the city fire department when they called us in to a large corncob bin fire. Two large doors where open to allow us to pour water streams into the structure. We'd been there for almost an hour when my chief ordered me to go fill somebody's air bottle. The truck with the cascade unit was just outside of the fireground as I changed the guy's air bottle. That being done, I got on the horn and asked the chief if I could set up the cascade to fill more air bottles, as this job looked like it was going to be a long, drawn out affair. He said " Yeah, go ahead Ron." As I put the empty bottle into the steel bucket to start filling it, I heard a loud, rattling, booming sound and looked up in time to see a huge plume of orange-blue flame, smoke and burning corn cobs engulfing the city's engine and everyone there in that area. I saw the top of the bin lifted up and clanged back down again, with flaming corn cobs rocketing into the air. Silence then surrounded the area, except the sound of our trucks. My first thought was " My God, they're all dead!" But then I heard one of the paid city guys call out, "Eyeee-haaaaaa!!!" Okay, time to go. Somebody's okay! I grabbed my gear and ran back in there to help pick up the pieces. In all, three of Fremont's guys had some burns and bruises, while ten of us volunteers where battered around more by the backdraft. Two had dislocated shoulders, while others suffered from bumps, bruises and some burns. A friend of mine didn't know he'd wrenched his back after everybody was transported to the hospital to be checked out. ( the adrenaline wore off!) What's spooky about it? It was Halloween, 1997.

This 'Backdraft' phenomenon reminds me of a film form the early 90's, which featured these 'Backdrafts', and the difficulty firefighters face in tackling 'Backdrafts'. I believe the film was called... "the Very Dangerous Fire".

This is the best episode you have ever made. I knew the science behind a backdraft, but had no concept of the reality involved. The instantaneous ignition is amazing, but what really blew me away was the power of the wind. Backdrafts have been described as a "flash of fire when the air ignites" and its weird to think of air burning, however it really IS air burning, (or at least the oxygen), that is burning. You don't think about it but oxygen is extremely flammable; that's why you never smoke around anyone who is using an oxygen tank! Still, that wind, oh my oh my. Stay safe out there brothers.

My father was a firefighter for most of his career and, in fact, until he retired. It is rather mad, the dangers they regularly exposed themselves to. What I would have loved to have them do with one of the backdraft bursts is have 3-5 rows of poles with little flags on them, spaced out 2 feet apart from each other, running the full length of the area where the fireball burst out then film it. It would be interesting to see the wind effect of the eruption as it goes.
