The apparatus comprising trigger means and at least one protractive device for breakin the frangible panel. The protractive device being located proximate to the at least one frangible panel and comprising an electrical input connected to the trigger means, propulsion means connected the electrical input and a solid member. The trigger means providing a signal to the propulsion means via the electrical input to propel the solid member form the protractive device into the frangible panel to break the frangible panel. The invention allows a person trapped in a building or vehicle to escape without having to break the frangible panel using a hammer.
