Wall of popcorn

Detect fires and get out

A house fire can spread VERY quickly, and a standard fire detector may take a minute to alert. That minute can make the difference between watching your house burn down and dying. What if the walls made noise if they're burning?

These decorative wall strips are placed along each wall. The outside is smooth and tastefully matches the decor. The inside contains popcorn.

       ...or you could do what my hillbilly grandfather did and line your walls with old coffee cans stuffed full of bacon grease and ammo while adding a fifty gallon barrel of tar to your roof every spring til the sag made it resemble a Japanese pagoda.   

       I was little at the time so I don't remember it, but I'm told that there wasn't a fireman to be seen for miles the day that place burned down.   

       Stupid, impractical and probably dangerous…. Fully Approved +

       Am I the one to point out how slow popcorn is to pop over a direct flame? Although it would be a cinch against microwave fires.
