they ought to just have a very simple rope, so that able bodied people can shimmy down - tie it to like a heavy metal bolt inside the room and escape the window slow and proper

Yea buddy I found a job for you. Basically you work for a company that makes things, and you just have to test it out first to make sure it's all safe and all that.
It pays great!

He didn't burn to death. So what do you want?... The testers marked this as a "success."

There are some test dummies for that...

Back to the drawing board.

At least it has lights and a rather gaay siren to summon the paramedics to where you basically jumped unchecked out of a high window.

even if it worked as planed how to you get dozens if not hundred of people out of a burning building in time with that. Not very practical imo

They should have provided an air bag for him to land in, just in case something like this happened. If he jumped from a few stories higher, he would be dead.

Great camera work. He was out of the frame for the most important part.
