WATCH: Sacramento Firefighters Show How To Survive A House Fire

SACRAMENTO (CBS13) — Studies show that someone is injured or dies in a fire every three hours in the United States.

CBS13's Ron Jones got an up close and personal look into the danger of house fires with Sac Metro Fire.

Fire experts say in order to increase your chances of survival in a fire, you must remain calm, stay extremely low, and crawl as fast as you can to the nearest door or window. Standing up and running out could mean instant death.
