The Shed Fire

READ ME for details.

It all started with me hooking up the Xbox to the TV and my mom folding the cloths. The next door neighbor came to the door (for identity reasons we will call her Mrs. Smith) and my mom answered. From where I was I could hear the conversation.

(Mrs. Smith) Hello
(Mom) Hi
(Mrs. Smith) Um...do you have a fire extinguisher?
[pause]
(Mom) Why?
(Mrs. Smith) The shed is on fire.
(Mom) WHAT!! [Runs outside to look]

At that moment I tried to finish what I was doing as quick as possible. When I heard my mom yell for me to find the fire extinguisher.

I ran outside, in my sock feet, to see. At that time it was small enough for an extinguisher to put out. As I ran back inside to get the key for my dads tool trailer for the extinguisher...

(Mom) Did you call 911
(Mrs. Smith) Yes just now
(Mom) I better move my car

I got the key for the trailer and went to it. At this point the fire is still small. I went inside the trailer only to find a mess. In most situations the fire extinguisher is located close to the door, not the case. I gave up looking for it in the trailer as I remembered that the camper in the back yard had one next to the stove. I ran as fast as I could to get to the camper. I went inside and grabbed the fire extinguisher. At this point the fire is of medium size. Once I stepped out I noticed that the fire extinguisher would not do the job.

As I ran back through the house I went to go find my brother. He was up in his room sleeping. I ran in screaming there is a fire. I told him to look out the window to see. We both ran outside. At this point we could hear the fire department coming within range. So we waited a little longer watching the shed burn and trying to douse it with water from the hose. When they started coming down the street I ran to the opposite side of the street to wave them to our position. They stopped in front of our house and started to bring in the hoses. At this point I realized that I should get the camera. I ran downstairs on my desk to grab it then started recording.

You can see the rest for yourself...

I would like to thank the Oshawa Fire Department for their quick response and the calm way they handled the situation.

UPDATE: The cause was an Eliminator Intelligent Charger from Canadian Tire (not bashing it or anything just saying).

Fires in sheds are really bad if you store paint and gasoline in them like I do. Not only a fire, but the explosions can cause fires on surrounding property.

[agnivohneb]

it would be very dangerous in my shed because my father has a lot of explosive material. like propane tanks (bbq), oxygen tanks (welding), gasoline (lawnmower)... That is just to name a few.
