                                                          Training school they 
                                                          would demonstrate this 
                                                          with a deep fat fryer 
                                                          set on the fire field. 
                                                          An instructor would

                                                          pole to toss water onto 
                                                          the grease fire.

                                                          attention of the students. 
                                                          The water, being heavier 
                                                          than oil, sinks to the 
                                                          bottom where it instantly 
                                                          becomes superheated. 
                                                           
                                                           
                                                          The explosive force 
                                                          of the steam blows the 
                                                          burning oil up and out. 
                                                          On the open field, it 
                                                          became a thirty foot 
                                                          high fireball that resembled 
                                                          a nuclear blast.  
                                                         
                                                          Inside the confines 
                                                          of a kitchen, the fire 
                                                          ball hits the ceiling 
                                                          and fills the entire 
                                                          room. Also, do not throw 
                                                          sugar or flour on a 
                                                          grease fire. One cup 
                                                          of either creates the 
                                                          explosive force of two
