Almost as good as sliding 200ft from the base of an exploding Saturn V to a rubber room, a quick crawl to the blast room, slam the door shut, cover yourself in a fire blanket and if you survive long enough light oxygen candles until the rescuers arrive. http://www.spaceflightnow.com/news/n1211/19rubberroom/

This photo from that series http://www.spaceflightnow.com/news/n1211/19rubberroom/full15... looks like something straight out of Half-Life. After reading the article on STS-1, that doesn't seem too far off.
