Those poor animals. I'm so sorry.

Such a tragedy. These people live in CA. They know how bad wildfires get. I don't understand the ignorance of people getting an evacuation order. When they tell you to go, you go.

I see the same things with Hurricanes

Warnings are given to have a weeks supply of food & water on hand or evacuate, people don't and suffer or die

A lot of California looks third world. I knew a VERY pretty Czech lady who lived in Los Angeles for a few years, couldn't wait to return to Prague. I asked her what she didn't like about Kalifornia, she said "its really Mexican..."

To put in perspective - within the course of four hours, due to the high winds and low humidity in the area - this fire devastated a entire town of 27000 people. The town only had about four roads into/out of it - and keep in mind that blocking out a road for outgoing traffic meant one less artery for emergency vehicles to get into the town.

This video shows the burnt skeletons of at least five people who were found presumably fleeing in their burnt vehicles. One skeleton is found outside of a car - I can only imagine that it was someone who tried to flee their melting/burning car and didn't make it far.

From a physiological perspective - it is more likely that these individuals lost consciousness from smoke inhalation - and thus did not suffer being burned alive - however, I imagine their last few moments alive were traumatic at the sensation of the heat around you and your car burning, in addition to what the environment might have looked like.

RIP to those affected. To everyone else: please take evacuation orders more seriously.

That is so fucking horrible
The pain and fear they must've felt.RIP to those who died. Alot of us can't even imagine going through something like this and maybe never have.But this is reality.They probably thought the same thing at one time... And now all this... I think part of California should just be deemed uninhabitable. The fires just keep happening and seem to get worse as the years go by...My heart goes out to all affected and your all in my prayers...

This is very sobering video. Fire kills ruthlessly. Wow.

Yeah... You're assuming she understood the danger they were in. More likely it was that she didn't understand how fucking fast the fire was moving and since she didn't see any fire yet she thought they were relatively safe. Ya know - how MOST people end up dying in forest fires.
