I've been through enough drills and mini-fires to stay calm.

I mean, what does the fire department think? "Oh no, there is a huge fire going on! Best if I walk out very slowly, because that is much more safer than... well, HAULING ASS OUT OF THERE!!

actually, there was a fire at my school and we walked out in single file (which was surprising, because we had never had a fire drill). we werent forced to stay quiet, though
