Fire requires three things: heat, fuel, and oxygen. If you take one of them away, then the fire will stop. By wrapping a heavy blanket around a burning object, it blocks oxygen in the air from getting to the fire and the fire goes out.

Why do you wrap blanket around a person whose cloths have caught fire?

Wrapping a blanket around a person whose clothes are on fire can help smother the flames by cutting off the oxygen supply. This can prevent the fire from spreading and give more time for the person to safely remove the burning clothing or for someone else to help extinguish the flames. It is important to ensure the person stops, drops to the ground, and rolls to further extinguish the fire.
