This great invention is the solution to save hundreds of people in the sea of ​​fire

Thanks to this convenient escape pipe, as soon as the fire is discovered, people on each floor can safely slip into the ground safely and quickly.

For residents living in high-rise apartment buildings, fire and escape problems are always the things that make them most worried and fearful. In addition to handling skills in case of house fire, the emergency exit plan is an important factor to help people preserve their lives because firefighters are not always present to control the fire. .

A former witness of the Grenfell high-rise apartment fire that killed at least 80 people, the 72-year-old British designer Eric Hooper was heartbroken and thought many nights. In the end, his anxiety created a unique escape pipe that, according to the introduction, was able to evacuate a 24-storey building in just 20 minutes.

The escape pipe system is a pipe through the entire length of the building . Each apartment on each floor has a door to enter the tube so that whenever a problem occurs, they can easily jump into the escape pipe without having to run up to the roof like a normal escape. This emergency pipe uses flame-resistant materials. Both adults or young children, the elderly can control their speed by using their hands to press the sides of the tube. Mr. Eric said, to build this system costs about 10-200 thousand dollars, depending on the complexity of the building and it can be applied to any high-rise buildings.

'I always thought of a simple pipe that could evacuate all people trapped in high-rise buildings. If this system is located in the Grenfell building, it could save 20-25 people in just a minute , 'Eric said. 'With a price of just one cup of coffee a day for each person, we were able to pay for an escape system for the whole year.'

Mr. Eric's design has been applied by many units in Dubai in the construction of escape plans in high-rise buildings. We hope that this useful design will soon be applied everywhere so that in the future there will be no unfortunate incidents when people are trapped in the burnt building.
