Fail: Russian Tram Billows Fire an Smoke

Today’s lesson in motoring is how not to put out a fire. If you ever find yourself in Russia and see a tram that’s burning up like a forest fire, don’t stop your car right next to it and try to put out the flames with a small fire extinguisher.
Just check out this video which show a tram ingulfed in smoke. The people trying to put out the fire have absolutely no effect on it. What’s more, they are putting themselves in a lot of danger.

If one of those windows was to break, fire would come gushing out causing some serious burns.

We’re not experts in Russian public transportation, but we’d say this is a relatively old model. Still, it’s amazing just how much flammable materials are found inside the tram.
