Abstract:
A slide and seek fire escape is provided for a high rise building having a roof and multiple floors. The fire escape consists of a plurality of balconies stacked one above the other for the roof and each floor of the building, with the balconies having right and left staggered escape apertures. A pair of elongated slide poles are also provided. One slide pole extends through the balconies in the center of the right escape apertures, while the other slide pole extends through the balconies in the center of the left escape apertures. A person can exit the building during a fire by entering one balcony and slide down one slide pole to the next balcony and walk to the other slide pole and slide down, thereby repeating the slide until the person reaches ground level.
