Even though I prefer to start fires with flammable liquids (bbq lighter fluid or kerosene), these video someone posted on a fire fighting forum shows how quickly a house fire can spread without using any acclerants.

I can't watch them as I'm not on high speed, but my father in law is a fireman and has been for 32 years... he has told of some scary-fast spreading fires.

Honestly, I usually don't give fire much of a thought but he scared the living daylights out of me!
