I've been next to a car fully engulfed in fire and from 25 feet away the heat was intense. With as big as that fire was I don't think they could have gotten close enough to pull her out without suffering burns themselves. But again in that part of the world caring seems to be hard.

I helped save greyhounds from a burning dog trailer ~10 years ago, the fire looks to be similar in size to this at the start. We also make a 12 foot bonfire every summer, yes its extremely hot They totally couldve saved here at the start of the video though, just complete retardation by these fuckwits to just film and wait.

I feel bad for the motorcyclist that was trying after it was too much, if only he was first on the scene.

The woman herself was not in any visible agony, so this kind of suggests that there was no "intense heat", otherwise her screaming alone would drown out all other audio. These inbred Filipino cowards could have dragged her to safety, especially at the beginning of the video when the fire wasn't even in contact with her just yet, hence a HUGE window to pull her to safety.

Obviously you don't seem to realize, but the lady burning here just suffered through a horrible crash and probably had brain damage from the accident. You make it seem like she was just resting there by her own accord. Have you thought maybe the reason she was not screaming was she had a traumatic head injury?
