    World's only Argyle sweater wearing, tropical fire safety instructor. Cotton may extinguish, wool is more certain; polyester type materials certainly not.

    You don't even have to do that with that design of tank the valve pushes down to turn off and pulls up to turn on so you can just swat at the top of it to extinguish a fire or stop the flow of the gas, but this demonstration was to show what to do if the valve was faulty and did not close
