Fire training!

We got a message saying we couldn't go out on wednesday afternoon as we would have some fire training outside our apartment, and so at 3oclock we went outside to find a random man, 6 fire extinguishers and 18 teachers standing around in the cold, but they wern't cold for long!
The man took a half barrel and poured a good bit of petrol inside and then, after a few false starts managed to light it.
Then, one by one, we went up to the barrel and put it out, using the provided extinguisher, when it came to my turn I was handed, not one, but two brand new, dud, fire extinguishers! With nothing inside despite reading full, I now know why each floor has 4 outside the room, only one from each batch works!
After half the people had tried the inevitable, we ran our of extinguishers, and so they rest didn't do it, madness! but very funny! most chinese fair training ever!
