Here is a video of a house fire from Regentville, Australia. Interesting watching the fires behavior from the changes of the progression of the fire. From the initial smoke colors and movement, the rollover, and the changes to the direction of the flames as the fire finally goes thought the roof and self vents. Surprise as to how long the front windows stay in. Good TRAINING TOOL.
