Extreme: calm, just calm
Tips / / December 19, 2019
When you get out of the house, you never know what awaits you ahead. Even on the way to work with you can happen a lot of pleasant and not much surprises. But we often believe that it can happen to anyone (with a neighbor, a friend, a distant friend), but not with us. In any case, you should always be prepared for different situations and does not lose his presence of mind, whether you are in a burning building, whether lost in the woods, or you carries a strong current.
There are a few simple rules that are easy to remember, for that matter, and forget, in a fit of panic. But that can save the lives of you and others.
1. We're burning!
As you know, in case of fire do not only cause a fire, but also to get out to the exit. Here are a few rules that must be followed in case of fire:
1. Cover your mouth and nose with a damp cloth, try to breathe slowly, without delay.
2. Move towards the exit stooping as low as possible to the floor - smoke rises.
3. The most difficult - is to escape from the flow of panicked crowd. Try to get to the exit, stairs or even a wall.
4. If you can jump out of the window (not higher than the third floor), first sit down on the windowsill. Thus the distance to the ground reduced by 60-70 cm.
2. A dog - man's best friend, but not all dogs agree.
It is not necessary to check the slogan for yourself.
1. Do not run. Large dogs napadyut not the top, not from the side or from below and right. If you start running, then open them his back. If she still decided to attack, you need to step aside when it jumps.
2. Do not wave your hands. Any attempt to punch the dog in the head does not inflict any harm to it, but rather the opposite. Belly, ears and groin area - that's weaknesses.
3. Do not look. The best thing would be to lower his head and look away. In animals, it is a sign of submission. The dog may simply lose interest in you.
4. Do not move. If the dog attacked you, and you do not have time to dodge - in any case do not try to push her hands. Risk being left without fingers. It is best to keep your hands in fists.
3. Salvation drowning - the handiwork of drowning.
And it is true. Depending on how you will behave in the first few seconds of your life depends. According to statistics, 80% of accidents occur due to the fault of rapid flow. Once in the strong current, a person panics and tries to get out of it. But how to do it right, they know not all, unfortunately.
1. In no case do not try to immediately get out of the current. Its speed reaches 12 km / h and you are unlikely to be able to successfully deal with it. The most important thing - to calm down, keep power and with minimal effort to stay afloat. The best thing on the back.
2. When you calm down a little and will be able to adequately respond, try to go with the flow along the coast. Once during weaken, try to swim out of it.
3. If, however, for not thinking to subside, allow to bring themselves up to the point where the waves break. Usually at this point for the rapid settling down. The main thing that it was not the sharp stones or rocks.
In any case, the first and most important thing to remember in all of these cases - do not panic and turn to the work of the head. Clear and sharp mind - your main escape.
