c) Terry Wogan (alive but unconscious)
Time is vanilla essence.
None of them, just save yourself.
If you’ve only the use of one arm it is likely you will need it to steady yourself - maybe touch a handrail or wall to feel your way in the dark and/or smoke. The fact you can’t use your other arm will also affect your balance.
Carrying anything will put your own life at risk, which is why when you hear a fire alarm you are always instructed not to gather belongings.
