"A massive fireball rolled through the cabin"
This theme seems to be common to every single aircraft accident that doesn't involve an instant break-up.
It occurs to Voice that airplane seats should include a heavy fireproof cloak with a valved pipe to outside air. In emergencies passengers could
wrap this cloak around themselves and (when below 10,000 feet) if the pipe is working breathe through it.* Under ordinary operation the cloak would form part of the seat cushion. A simple modification of existing instructions could keep passengers protected until they can leave, if exiting is possible: add the following clause as bracketed. [If no one is in the isle beside you] start moving toward the exit.
optional: make the cloaks so they can be removed from the seats; include a dust or gas mask
*The emergency oxygen system isn't deployed in the case of fire.

If the passenger cabin is engulfed in flames you're
beyond the point at which a flame resistant poncho
will help. |

Strangely enough, Google returns no hits for "A massive fireball rolled through the cabin" (in quotes). |

Just put the fire eater's stuff in the baggage hold, preventing any in-flight practice. |
|

NB If a fire-eater dies and is cremated, isn't that just excessively recursive? |

Why not just integrate this with an escape hood? <link> |
