Yes, it looks like the flames, while fierce looking, were on the outside of the building, allowing those inside time to get out.

Not thick enough to stop Robert Nkemdiche.

Polycarbonate and less than a quarter-inch thick. Strong unless split by a blade and then they separated easily from what I could determine two decades ago. 0.02

That doesn't sound very encouraging at all really.

firefighting equip is way heavy, and of course you could never haul a hose wearing a jet pack since those weigh a veritale ton.

And yes it looks like they're to get them to the top levels quickly.

no hose hauling. still worth having, but not helpful in terms of actually extinguishing the fire.

"The [jetpacks] can go into confined spaces to size-up the situation. We are going to modify them with thermal imaging cameras,"
