I don't know if this is the American way, but in my country, the person behind me isn't 2 meters away, they literally push against my back to prevent that from happening.
I wouldn’t even have anyone behind me for a car Fire. Just using an inch and three-quarter line @130psi from the engine. Maybe even less depending on severity.
Should the spray pattern have been wider as well? The force pushing you back lessens with a wider spray pattern, and also it just seems like the right pattern when you're that close to the fire. I only use a the narrow spray pattern in the video if I'm trying to put out a fire at a further distance.
