Fire & Explosions in Hollywood Films: What You Need to Know to Survive
Speaker: Professor Brad D. Elder, Doane University
When: 7:00pm February 25, 2015
Location: Love Library, Talk Zone Room 222
Description: Hollywood sensationalizes action movies with big explosions and lots of fire. Running through a burning building with a victim over the shoulder is a great way for heroes to protect their shoulder from burns. It’s also a great way to bake their victim faster than a microwave. We will take a walk through fire both real and Hollywood.
