A Dry Christmas Tree Can Engulf a Room in Flames in Just Seconds [VIDEO]

This video, produced by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, demonstrates just how quickly a Christmas-tree fire can spread, completely engulfing a room in flames. Scary.

Keep that tree watered!

Keep a fire extinguisher handy!

I may 'ignite' a debate here, but a few years ago we invested in a beautiful artificial tree. Money well spent, if you ask me!
