Fire extinguisher is a good one, also important, to know what will put out a particular fire and what ends up making things (much) worse.
hot glass looks like cold glass.
This quote made me wonder about analogs in other activities, e.g. woodworking.
lol how about the one p of woodworking: pushsticks
And no gloves. Gloves can get caught.
Is that feet as in "wear closed toed shoes" or as in running away if necessary?
Fans to ventilate, fire extinguisher for when things go wrong, feet for when the fire extinguisher isn't enough.
