Four ways to save your life

Drowing

What do you do in an emergency in the sea or lake don't try to swim ashore if you are more than 100 metres away from the coast. In open water that can be dangerous,even if you are a good swimmer! If you have a boat, stay with it boats are easier to identifity than people. The water is warmest on the surface - so try to lie on your back and keep an eye out for rescue boats. As soon as they are within earshot, shout for help.                   


House Fire
 

If a fire breaks out in your house, be very careful. Don't open any doors unless you know for sure there is no fire on the other side. Touch the handle with the back of your hand. If it is hot, you must no open the door instead go to a window and shout for help. Only try to extinguish the fire yourself if it is small. Leave the room and alert everybody in the house. If you can, get out and call the fire brigade.

Being crushed in a crow 


If you go to a concert or a football match, make sure you now where the exit out. 'A crow is always focused in one direction. It's like an umbrella that you have opened in front of you, says Chris White, managing dirctor of security first. If you have to get out quickly, move away from the pressure area. That's the area  of greatest density - it's the point of the umbrella. Move backwards or to one side. As soon as you are away for the points, the pressure decreases. 

Lightning

When there is a storm, you are safest indoors. If you are outside, don't take cover under a tree - an  electrical current may run down the tree to the area where you are sheltering. look for a small depression in the ground and crouch down with your feet together.If you 're in a car, your safe. It is also safe to use a mobile phone.
