According to Robbins' website , the "fire walk" is intended to help people conquer their fears by walking across hot coals. (CNN) At least 30 people were treated for minor burns after walking on hot coals during self-help guru Tony Robbins' "Unleash the Power Within" seminar in Dallas,Texas, fire and medical officials said. "Walking over those hot coals is a symbolic experience that proves if you can make it through the fire, you can make it through anything," his website says. Of the more than 7,000 participants, at least 30 sustained minor burns to their feet and five were hospitalized, according to Dallas Fire-Rescue spokesman Jason Evans. Dallas Fire-Rescue responded to multiple calls around 11 p.m. regarding "burn victims" at the Kay Bailey Hutchinson Convention Center.
