A billowing inferno of flame and smoke swirls 250ft into the sky from a man made lake of

A billowing inferno of flame and smoke swirls 250ft into the sky from a man made lake of 6, 000 gallons of fuel oil.
Moving slowly through the blaze is a specially fire-proofed lifeboat steered by remote control. Inside its smoke blackened hull are two mice called Pinky and Perky.
Despite outside temperatures ten times as hot as boiling, water, they came through the ordeal unharmed. And, say scientists, if mice can survive such conditions, so can men.
The lake, at Pinewood Film Studios, Buckinghamshire, was set ablaze during a demonstration of the safety qualities of the boats heat-resistant plastic coating.
The demonstration, staged by Bristol Aeroplane Plastics Ltd, was watched by Vice-Admiral John Hughes-Hallett, Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Transport, and trade representatives from many foreign countries.
Picture shows: The lifeboat looks blackened and burnt but these men seen preparing to go in found
Pinky and Perky cool end unconcerned.
