Review on 25Ft (8M) Fire Escape Ladder With Hooks - Flame Resistant Safety Rope For Third Story Windows - Weight Capacity Up To 2000 Pounds by Cedric Ford

This is probably the best of all the 2 story escape ladders out there. Won't cut into your fingers like the cheap wire chain models. It's reusable, most of the others are not. Worth the extra cost. Fasten the two hooks together in advance. In the event of a fire close bedroom door, loop the end of the ladder with the two hooks fastened together over the bedpost furthest from the window, then loop the nearest rung of the ladder over the bedpost closest to the window. Open the window. Throw the rest of the ladder out the window. Slide the bed up to the window until it is touching the wall at the window. Jump up on the bed, facing the ladder make your way out of the window feet first and down the ladder. Have a nice day. Been there, done it. Hopefully you will never have to use it. Sleep well.
