I-Garment’s new firefighter "smart" suit was invented to improve the safety of firefighters and aid communications during disaster relief.

This apparel has already been approved by the European Space Agency in field tests involving fire situations.

The "smart" suit can monitor rescue workers’ positions and their vital signs via sensors strategically located on the suit.

Man Dies in Ball of Fire, AKA Ooops!


taser Man Dies in Ball of Fire, AKA Ooops!

Tasers emit sparks, at least some of them do. Remember that fact as you read this.

Juan Flores Lopez, 47, had poured gasoline all over himself after threatening to burn himself and his house down. His wife naturally wanted him out of there.

Police used pepper spray to try and subdue the man, but it did not work. Then they tried a taser and the man got what he wanted – fire. He died at a hospital in Texas.

Two of his sons who live nearby said their father had been threatening for months to burn himself and his house. His wife was seeking a divorce and he did not want to have to leave the house, the sons said.
