Virtually all recorded incidents of serious injury by fire breathing involve untrained individuals, often while under the influence of alcohol. Using an incorrect fuel is usually a strong contributing …show more content…
Determination of the wind
Determining wind direction is extremely important when fire breathing. To determine the wind direction a fire breather will watch the flame on their torch and only breathe downwind. Breathing fire in high wind, or unpredictable wind, is not recommended.

3- How to breathe A- Two ways of spitting:
The professional way: Feel the breath expand your ribcage.....you are aiming to fill your whole chest cavity with air. At the end of the fourth, when you think you can't take any more air in, take a sip more. Hold for a count of four. Exhale over a count of four....and when you think you have all the air out, huff more out.
The beginner’s way, you only have to take a sip and spit it out using the air left in your chest disabling the function of the diaphragm.

    I doubt that anyone would argue with the statement that firefighting is a dangerous occupation. The natural reaction of most is to flee from a burning building, but firefighters are not most people. Firefighters risk their lives on a day-to-day basis rushing to the scene of an emergency, fighting blazing fires, and entering burning buildings; it is hard to believe that the number one cause of line-of-duty deaths is cardiac events (FEMA, 2011).…

    4. The most startling fact is that children under the age of 5 account for nearly 40% of all fire-related deaths, a rate that is more than double that for any other age group (Hall, 2000). Millions of dollars are spent each year to treat burn victims, and while many are severely disfigured physically, no amount of money can compensate for the emotional and mental trauma experienced.

    Wolfgang Schivelbusch’s Disenchanted Night delineates the history of the industrialisation of light from the candle through the incandescent light bulb, demonstrating the relationship between the development of artificial light and the social, political, and economic milieu from which it emerged. This process was dependent on two social contexts which were integral to the pace and direction of the development of lighting technology, the Industrial Revolution and the Enlightenment. The Industrial Revolution necessitated the rapid industrialisation of light, as the emergence of factory production demanded light that was more powerful and cost effective in order to illuminate the factories and facilitate production that went beyond that permitted…

    There is a piece in the incentive spirometer called the piston that will rise as you breathe in and a piece that is called the indicator that is set at a goal number that your care team wants you to get to (“Using an Incentive Spirometer,” 2015). The Cleveland Clinic has broken down how to use an incentive spirometer in just a few short steps. I will verbally explain these steps to my patients, and also print out the sheet so they can have it as a reference. First, one should sit in a chair, on the edge of the bed or up as far as possible in bed while holding the incentive spirometer upright. I would then instruct him or her to place the mouthpiece in their mouth and to seal his or her lips tightly around it. Next, instruct the patient to take a slow deep breath in and state that the goal is to get the piston to reach the indicator where the goal level has been set. Encourage the patient to hold his or her breath for as long as they can and to then exhale slowly until the piston has gone back done to the bottom of the incentive spirometer. The patient should then rest for a couple seconds and repeat the steps from the beginning at least ten times. It is ideal that this routine is done every hour (“How to Use an Incentive Spirometer,” n.d.). If a patient is not an auditory learner but a visual learner, I will get my own incentive spirometer to demonstrate how to do it…
