When I was 16, I woke up in the middle of the night hearing something funny. I opened my bedroom door, and all I could see was smoke so thick it was like a solid curtain at the door.
I went out my bedroom window and to the front of the house where it was in fire. I realized my dad wasn’t with me, so I went back in, woke him up, and got him out.
We put the fire out ourselves with a garden hose with a super high pressure nozzle. The door ended up only burning two rooms. When we went back inside the next day, I thought at first that the house was absolutely covered in spider webs dyed with soot. Nope, it was the smoke forming chains of carbon. Everything above a certain height ( about a foot from the ceiling)in the house was melted and destroyed from the smoke even though only two rooms burned.
The insurance people took everything that wasn’t destroyed and treated it with ozone to remove the unbearable stench. Including my hidden porn (I’m old enough this was physical paper) and tried to rat me out to my dad. He didn’t care though and told them to treat it and put it back where they found it.
