Not my video, but passed to me by a former @LondonFire colleague. A house fire in East London a couple of weeks ago caused by an e-scooter lithium battery. The burning batteries 'flaring' causes overpressure which looks like mini-backdraughts!!!

Fab picture - thanks!
Not forgetting a shout out to the @RAFFireService, present at every beach landing that the @RoyalAirForce conducts

We have plenty of positive male role models to celebrate on #InternationalMensDay2021 in our RAF Fire Stations across the country. Thanks all of you for making such a difference!
