Abstract: A disaster evacuation apparatus is disclosed which is particularly useful in the evacuation of victims caught in fires of multistoried buildings, airplane crashes, or similar disasters where the normal escape routes or fire exits have been made inaccessible due to the prevailing circumstances, forcing the victims to leap from high levels to their safety. This rescue unit comprises a large inflated enclosure mounted on a secondary inflated supporting base, both of which are fabricated from extremely lightweight flexible nylon material facilitating easy storage and transportation to the disaster site in the deflated pack-rolled state. The apparatus has the ability of being quickly inflated by its own air blower motor upon delivery to the disaster area. More importantly, the apparatus exhibits instant recovery to its operational configuration after each successive impact of falling bodies.
