Back when I lived in a hi rise apartment building the one in the apartment across from me caught on fire. It made the holidays much more exciting especially when one of the guys that lived there discovered that the tree was on fire while he was in the shower and came banging on everyone's doors wet and naked screaming "my tree is on fire."

We all got together and put it out before the fire department got there using the fire hose that was on each floor but the apartment was a complete loss and till this day I kind of look at trees like a big fire waiting to happen.
