bronx fire ... more info

https://youtu.be/N_7jCUeyzDk

boro resident says both bedroom door and apartment door were left open
in 3rd floor apartment where the fire started ... its kinda strange
how a fire could get rolling in an occupied apartment ... usually
people can smell a fire long before it gets rolling

but the 2 open apartment doors does not at all explain how there were
victims on every floor in the building

somehow very hot smoke got into the stairwells

gonna assume there were at least 2 stairwells

due to the cold weather ... there would have been strong upflow in
the building even before the fire started .... so lets say the fire
started in a 3rd floor bedroom and started pumping smoke into 1 or 2
stairwells as people fled the 3rd floor ... anyone entering those
stairwells from above would have been in extreme danger immediately

however ... if the doors on the stairwells closed quickly on the 3rd
floor ... maybe the stairwells could have been used for evacuation

you would think that anyone who entered a stairwell and immediately
got hit by a blast of hot air would have backed out of the stairwell
immediately ... but if people were already in the stairwells and then
someone opened a door to the 3rd floor ... that would have been big
trouble

not trying to blame victims here ... not trying to blame bureaucrats
... trying to get to the truth to save lives in the future
