Herd mentality occurs when individuals group together and follow each other for inexplicable reasons. This is sometimes referred to as the “mob mentality” and is observed during riots. When one-person yells loudly and charges forward, the herd (or mob) follows. This episode discusses how herd mentality might impact situational awareness and decision making at emergency scenes.   Notable Near-Miss Episodes   17 – Doug Abernathy – double fatal 18 – Sean Dolan - Flashover 19 – Steven Hough – Shot in the face 21 – Sean Balantic – Struck by a car 22 & 23 – John Lightly – Flashover 33 – Adam Farrar – 2 near misses at one fire 35 & 36 – Lionel Crowther – double fatal 42 – Steven Page – lost & disoriented during an evac order 43 & 44 – Scott Burnette – Death of Captain Jeff Bowen 45 – Dave Martin – Wildfire burn over 53 – Brian Mulligan – Contact with an electric line 55 – Jason Corthell – Structural collapse 57 – Jeff Cheshire – Over run by fire conditions 64 – Nick Miller – Two near-miss events on Christmas Day 67 – Todd Budd – Fell through the roof 80 – Morris Lentz – Trapped by structural collapse 81 – Tim Kohlbeck and Chase Longmiller – Rapid changing conditions. 83 – Tiger Schmittendorf – Water rescue 101 – Sioux Falls – Aerial contacted a 33kv line 103 & 104 – Eric Dreimen – Flashover 116 & 117 – Ryan Pyle – Residential fire that killed a FF 118 & 119 – Dan Phannensteil – Near miss at house fire 126 – Buddy Wilks – Managed a mayday 129 – Alan Mannel – Shootout incident 160 – Virginia, MN – smoke explosion 161 – Soldiers Township, MO – Tornado 162 & 163 – Lynchburg, VA – House fire evacuation 170 – Brad Davidson – Industrial fire 183-185: St. Charles, MO – House fire mayday Our sponsor: Midwest Fire MidwestFire.com   Intro music Safety Dance (1982) Men Without Hats GMC - Virgin Records Licensed by BMI Music   Situational Awareness Matters! website www.SAMatters.com   Firefighter Near Miss Reporting System http://www.firefighternearmiss.com/   Contact Rich Gasaway www.RichGasaway.com [email protected] 612-548-4424
