Original Note:
This is a real video from Kennedy Space Center, but it is not a fire extinguisher. The water deluge system is used for sound suppression and ignition overpressure protection. Accurate reporting on a test of the same system: https://www.space.com/42248-nasa-launch-pad-water-deluge-test-video.html Incorrect Reddit post that this account scraped: https://www.reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/comments/huasdl/emergency_fire_extinguisher_at_nasa_kennedy_space/
