HT, ok, but there were no signs of fire on the video were there, sparking yes but no fire. If I'd been the pilot of Southwest and asked you as ATC what you could see and you'd told me I was on fire I'd be pretty miffed to find out it was only sparks.

If you'd been on board an aircraft which dinged the wingtip on landing, lots of sparks, smoke and leaking fuel would you evacuate then?

I'm not disagreeing with you just trying to understand your mindset. Might help me to prevent people popping doors and chutes unecessarily in the future.
