To combat the Great Fire of London in 1666, people employed various methods, including using buckets of water from the Thames River and creating firebreaks by demolishing buildings to stop the fire's spread. They also attempted to use fire hooks to pull down structures and create gaps. Despite these efforts, the fire raged for several days, largely due to strong winds and the flammable materials of the time. Ultimately, the fire was only contained when the winds died down and rain began to fall.
