why stop-drop-roll over removing clothes

947 views

Why is it that when you’re clothes catch fire, your supposed to stop drop and roll? I do understand how stop-drop-roll works. But wouldn’t it be better to just remove your clothes? Especially if its clothes that don’t need to go over ur face to be taken off.

If you drop and roll, the fire should be put out. If you panic and take off the article of clothing you are probably not going to drop the clothes and stomp out the fire, you are more likely going to throw it away from you possibly starting a lot larger of a fire.
