Nine minutes and eleven seconds. Four thousand people, six buildings, two of them below ground, and not a single injury. Dana Oyelowo wrote that protocol in 2019 and has drilled it eleven times, and on the night it mattered it ran better than any drill. There was no fire. There was never going to be a fire. What there was, at 21:14, was the fourth floor of Building C, empty for the first time in nine years, with the doors held open by her own evacuation.
Who it follows
Security chief Dana Oyelowo runs the alarm at a research campus and puts four thousand people on the lawn in nine minutes, which is a record.
What goes wrong
There was never a fire, and the only floor anybody entered was the one everybody had just left.
What is at stake
Her protocol worked perfectly, and that is precisely how it was used.
What keeps it running
Each episode she reconstructs one more thing she did correctly.
What you take away
A good system is the easiest thing in the world to aim.
