[QUOTE=".Scott, post: 6035326, member: 489053"] I have not seen the movie, but perhaps you saw a Halon 1301 system in use. The manufacture of Halon was prohibited in 1998, but the use of recycled Halon is still in common use. I have worked in building with a Halon system - but never saw it discharge. I have also trained with a variety of fire extinguishers. I never used a Halon extinguisher, but chemical extinguishers are generally really good - much more potent than water. There are also other fire suppressing agents that can be used (FM-200, INERGEN, and FE-13). See this link: https://www.nationalfireinc.com/suppression-systems/halon-1301.html Also see: [URL]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaseous_fire_suppression[/URL] [/QUOTE]
