thats what i;m saying! especially in an office building. the best ff can get lost with all of the cubicles. best thing to do would be A)not be alone and B) tie off a rope at the door and carry the rope bag with you...this way you can't get lost!

It's reality guys. That's the only down fall with us having our hearts 100% in the job....you get tunnel vision and that's no good. I'm so glad that this Captain was ok.

i agree never go solo. two in two out. but my question is why did it take so long from time of mayday to time they got to him. it seemed like it took forever just to get the r.i.t in there and the second rescue.

Another important lesson in addition to those stated is to not panic. Ok you have, for whatever reason gotten yourself into such a situation. By remaining as calm as you can, controlling your breathing, and thinking clearly, will result in a much better chance of getting out.

keep in mind,this can also happen in collapse or wall breach situations, you can also get turned around and separated. No matter if you go in with two or three or four, you can get separated, or disoriented. Keep your head about you, perhaps a search line in larger buildings... always have a way out.
I've seen guys get turned around in a rolling balloon construction house, it was all around them in the walls. One of them was 5 feet inside the door and thought he was deep in and going to die. Sure enough, he used his man down alarm and an arm reached in and pulled him out. Luck is definitely on our side at times, even the best and most experienced need it at times.
