That's pretty weak. There's no commercial pilot on earth who, when flying a four engine aircraft and told that one engine was on fire, would shut down three engines simultaneously. He might, in a rare instance, mistakenly shut down one good engine (like the British Midlands pilot), but all three at once, never.
