Fire is a different story. I'd be outta there so fast that I'd be starting my own fires from my wheels spinning. I'd toss in the car whatever of value that I had time to gather, get the pups, and head for wetter ground!~~~~~and wait and pray that I have a house to go back to when the smoke clears. I am absolutely petrified of fire!

People that stand their ground and refuse to leave in a fire situation, have little to no chance of being rescued.
