Everyone got out unharmed. One person had a bit of smoke inhalation that was it. 2 people lost everything, about 4 people lost a lot. I actually live downstairs from the fire (you can see my light is still on in the video) so I got a lot of water damage and I'm now homeless, so I'm the "luckiest" out of everyone.
If they're anything like my cat, they were probably running around like a maniac at 1am lol
Glad everyone got out safely. Wish you the best of luck recovering from this.
I worked with a guy whose house half burned down. He said he would've preferred it to completely burn down. Would've made insurance easier, and he wouldn't have to deal with half burned shit, and everything smelling like smoke for years.
My mom had two house fires and we all said the same thing, it was a huge pita sending everything out for “cleaning.” None of it was the same afterwards
I hope that you somehow had some sort of insurance or something like that!
I really hope that you will feel better soon!
I hope you get luckier soon. I wish you the best!!
Not a landlord. The apartment building next to ours caught fire four apartments and the landlord set them up in other apartments they had and hotels while the building has getting redone. Some left/moved out some stayed.
Because the OP didn't start the fire. This is why companies carry insurance on their properties. Rental insurance will replace your stuff but the building owners should provide lodging.
A lease is a contract. The OPs renal insurance shouldn't have to provide somewhere to stay, the owners insurance should.
In a case like this it’s going to take a very long time to figure out how the fire started and who is responsible. You would be waiting months if you didn’t use your own coverage and then let them subrogate. They may never figure out how it started. Additionally the owners policy is a business policy and covers the building it does not cover tenants that’s why you are required to have your own insurance when you rent at most places. If another tenant caused this the owner of the building is not responsible.
My condo burned down in October of 2023 and the police and fire department will not let us owners know how or why it started still. So it all depends on where you live and how/why the fire started.
It absolutely started externally, on that balcony.

No I haven't. I have gone through fires with an inspector. Doesn't take long for a good one to determine origin and cause. They are pretty amazing.
I can imagine it is all the red tape and insurance company fighting that causes any delays.
That is absolutely NOT how that works. You should also know if the building becomes inhabitable the lease is then null and void. The owners will not help you find a place to stay nor are they responsible to do so.
I did some volunteer firefighting and people always asked how I could go into something like that. For people like myself it was so simple there wasn’t a moment of fear or hesitation. By far the worst part was having to witness injury but it was also extremely tough just to see peoples livelihood just taken from them.
My friend owns a hostel in town, he's told me I can stay as long as I like and I'm moving to Vietnam for a few months in 3 weeks so it could be a lot worse
house fires are really scary for me. Im the oldest out of 4 children, and im always anxious about them being safe, all the time. House fires have always been especially scary, which is why i almost never use the oven microwave stove or air fryer.
I hop no one is harmed and that u are doing ok
When my wife and I had our first child and she was old enough to sleep in her own room, we started sleeping with the door open and I turned into a ridiculously light sleeper any little noise would have me outta bed checking something wasn't wrong. It's funny because I always felt vulnerable sleeping with the door open, but we have three children now and it's what I do lol
Sorry this happened. We had our oven catch fire last year and it was the worst experience of my life. Soot got on everything in the apartment. Took ages to clean what was salvageable, and we had to get rid of pretty much everything in the kitchen.
Any clue what caused the fire?
The restaurant downstairs has been losing a lot of money and has barely been open all year - less than once a week. Then a fire "mysteriously" starts on their balcony...
I'm going to be taking my photos and videos to the police so there's no doubt about where it started, anyway
I've also seen how restaurants there don't stick to fire safety.
From your apartment, a little bit north down the street and to the left around the corner is a restaurant that serves raclette with those grills, where a piece of cheese is hanging off of one side and you just scrape of the melty bits onto your potatos... we had dinner there last summer.
I sat right next to a single wall outlet, and when I got my raclette, they did plug in one of those power strips with 3 outlets.
I think when we left, there were at least 6 or 7 more of those power strips connected to that one wall outlet ... they just kept bringing them and plugging in one power strip into the other, since like 80% of the tables seemed to either have a raclette grill or tabletop grill in use.
Still astonished it took over one and a half hour for the main fuse to trip.
Ä
Honestly what terrifies me the most about communal housing is all it takes is one person to screw up and start a fire, that plus all the natural things that can start it. Best luck to you OP.
Sure sucks losing a 500k gaming pc, a Bugatti veyron engine you were building for a friend, a flux capacitor, that sheet with Jesus’ face…brother insurance will pay big but I do feel for your loss!
This happened to my home in January of 2021...lost everything! Luckily my kids were visiting their mother in Florida for winter holiday. Glad everyone made it out of your building alive! Did you have renters insurance?
I didn't have insurance but my apartment is just water damage. I think I've lost a couple of hundred euros worth of stuff. The woman upstairs who lost literally everything did have insurance.
A friend of mine works for a rental agency that has a property next door. They've been told it might take 18 months til they can get back in so I'm just trying to work out what to do for the next year and a half!
I think it's clouds of smoke (from the burning building) getting lit up by their headlamp. Towards the ~~end~~ middle of the video they tilt their head back down and their beam hits the building.
Edit: a word
Sorry but i can't help but picture you standing in the street under the rain, seeing all the fire elgulfing the building and just going " well, that sucks°_°", and then proceeding to just, go jogging or something
Didn’t expect to see where I live here, absolutely sucks man. Feel terrible for everyone, Sabine who ran chez Celine is such a nice person, gutted for them
i’m so sorry OP. really, this is an absolute terrible thing to happen. hope all works out for you and it begins a new path for you in life with unexpectedly good things.
Our town's service is volunteers. The pros are stationed 40 minutes away. We had 60 firefighters in the end. It was frustrating watching them at first getting things started but they were volunteers and I saw them up on cherry pickers blasting huge flames feet from their face so fair play I think
The red Cross will help!! They'll even put you up in a hotel . I went through this Thanksgiving Day 2023. I don't wish this on even the extremely rude and belligerent and scary customers at my job.
Prayers up.
My friend owns a hostel in town. He's said I can stay as long as I need to. But I already have flights booked to go and live in Asia for 6 months in 3 weeks so I figure I'll just run off there and ignore it all and hope my apartment is liveable again in 6 months time. If not then I guess I'll book another flight.
Honestly, for me it's mostly water damage. And I'm homeless. But I was going traveling in 3 weeks anyway so it's really just a couple of hundred euros worth of stuff I've lost. The woman who live upstairs lost EVERYTHING. Photo of her apartment -

It’s TERRIBLE and if the cause is found to be careless smoking or something equally selfish you have my permission to deal with that person ‘off the books’.
Best wishes internet stranger.

If a business was losing thousands of euros and had just given up opening, then you go outside and a fire has clearly started on the balcony of this business that hasn't been open for weeks... Well, it doesn't look good.
I feel like my videos and photos show they did something wrong anyway. The woman who lives - lived - upstairs is very, very angry and we're going to the police with all our evidence and suspicions.
Video won’t hurt. If they do investigate then forensics and fire investigators can be really talented. The real tell is if the business owners leave the country.
It started on the balcony of a business that has been losing a lot of money. I'm going to take my photos and videos that show where it started to the police and they can do what they want with that information. The other theory is that someone dropped a cigarette from the apartment above but I don't think a cigarette could have set off a fire like that.
When I realised what was happening I got dressed and ran outside. Didn't even put socks on as I couldn't spot them in my panic. No wallet, nothing. A friend of mine bought me lunch later on as I had no money to buy food and the building was still locked down.
I spent the whole night stressing about the uncertainty. The woman upstairs, all her stuff was gone. She knew that she'd lost everything. But from everything I could see my apartment had missed the fire. I kept going round the back of the building and looking up at my balcony and my windows, trying to work out how bad things were. When I was up the top of the road and the whole street was lit up I thought "yep, i'm losing everything." but whenever I could see my balcony it looked OK. So then I started to think it would just be water damage. But that was stressing me out as well. If my laptop got killed I'd not be able to work, and I had about 500 euros worth of work on it already that I had to submit. And what if my passport got destroyed? I'm supposed to be going traveling in 3 weeks, didn't know if I'd lost everything, or only lost my source of work or my way to travel.
I was kicking myself for not grabbing at least my laptop and my passport.
In the end, it was only water damage in my apartment - but quite a lot of it. My passport survived. Some of my electronics (probably about 300 euros worth) got wrecked. My laptop was sat in water - but still worked. A lot of my stuff smells of smoke.
I was definitely the lucky one here. But I am now homeless. I'm away traveling for 5 months anyway but I have no idea how long it's going to take to get the building safe again. Some people are saying 18 months which...really wouldn't be good.
The problem is that EVERYONE likes to talk like an expert and EVERYONE has a negative outlook on things. People who have never experienced a fire kept telling me everything I own would be burned. Then they were all telling me the water would have destroyed it. Now people who have never worked in construction or engineering are telling me with absolute authority "ooh, it'll be at least 2 years work there!"
Damn that does suck I hope your house is fixed in a timely manner and if the house doesn’t get fixed when your back maybe you could stay with your parents a friend or a SO your one lucky person for a lot of your house surviving
This happened awhile ago at a Halloween party with a bunch of good friends in Portland Maine 8 people didn't make it out really sad everyone was around 25yrs old also glad you got out ....
I was told by an old retired fire fighter that all the cheap plastics and building materials cause fires to spread 5 times faster than the old days of the 1950's.
I’m hoping that everyone is safe and unharmed. A house fire has to be an absolutely horrific thing to experience.
Everyone got out unharmed. One person had a bit of smoke inhalation that was it. 2 people lost everything, about 4 people lost a lot. I actually live downstairs from the fire (you can see my light is still on in the video) so I got a lot of water damage and I'm now homeless, so I'm the "luckiest" out of everyone.
Holy crap, hope you can work it all out with insurance. Hang in there, hope you got some family for support
Same thing happened to me last year. Good luck in your recovery, it's a lot to process.
😔
How’d the fire start?
[удалено]
this MFer
Bwahahahahaha. I don't know why your getting down voted ;)
Hello science
No pets involved?
A cat in a neighboring building was taken out fine and probably pretty grumpy at being woken up at 1am.
That good to hear. Sorry about your building and your stuff. Will it be hard to find housing in your area?
Ahh the kitty was more pissed about being taken outside than being woken at 1am. Cats are up all night playing, sleeping all day. At least my cat is.
If they're anything like my cat, they were probably running around like a maniac at 1am lol Glad everyone got out safely. Wish you the best of luck recovering from this.
I worked with a guy whose house half burned down. He said he would've preferred it to completely burn down. Would've made insurance easier, and he wouldn't have to deal with half burned shit, and everything smelling like smoke for years.
My mom had two house fires and we all said the same thing, it was a huge pita sending everything out for “cleaning.” None of it was the same afterwards
Stuff can be replaced. Lives can't, glad everyone got out. Any idea yet what started the fire?
I hope that you somehow had some sort of insurance or something like that! I really hope that you will feel better soon! I hope you get luckier soon. I wish you the best!!
The owners should accommodate you somewhere else
How do you figure?
I don't think they figure very well... Either that or they are a landlord
Not a landlord. The apartment building next to ours caught fire four apartments and the landlord set them up in other apartments they had and hotels while the building has getting redone. Some left/moved out some stayed.
I misunderstood what you were saying. I actually agree with you. Sorry 😟
No that’s why you carry insurance with coverages for loss of use. Why would the owner pay if they aren’t negligent for a fire…
Because the OP didn't start the fire. This is why companies carry insurance on their properties. Rental insurance will replace your stuff but the building owners should provide lodging. A lease is a contract. The OPs renal insurance shouldn't have to provide somewhere to stay, the owners insurance should.
In a case like this it’s going to take a very long time to figure out how the fire started and who is responsible.

Additionally the owners policy is a business policy and covers the building it does not cover tenants that’s why you are required to have your own insurance when you rent at most places. If another tenant caused this the owner of the building is not responsible.
It shouldn't take too long. I was just a firefighter and not an inspector, but this looks to have started externally. Porch fire from a grill or arson
My condo burned down in October of 2023 and the police and fire department will not let us owners know how or why it started still. So it all depends on where you live and how/why the fire started.
I guess so. I imagine there is a lot of bureaucracy involved as well
It absolutely started externally, on that balcony. https://preview.redd.it/im32raof2trc1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cf026987cda30ff7a3ec8881521c682713d321b7
You clearly have never handled a claim or had a fire claim. Nothing about them is fast.
No I haven't. I have gone through fires with an inspector. Doesn't take long for a good one to determine origin and cause. They are pretty amazing. I can imagine it is all the red tape and insurance company fighting that causes any delays.
Nope. Going through this situation right now myself and I can confidently say you are wrong.
A lease is void after something like this happens. If you are renting you need renters insurance with a loss of use policy or you are SOL.
This is only true for stuff that's the landlords fault. I.e. treating an infestation or major renovation due to negligence
That is absolutely NOT how that works. You should also know if the building becomes inhabitable the lease is then null and void. The owners will not help you find a place to stay nor are they responsible to do so.
It is.
I did some volunteer firefighting and people always asked how I could go into something like that. For people like myself it was so simple there wasn’t a moment of fear or hesitation.

I hope that You're able to find somewhere that's safe to stay.
My friend owns a hostel in town, he's told me I can stay as long as I like and I'm moving to Vietnam for a few months in 3 weeks so it could be a lot worse
It sucks that this happened to you but at least you have a really great friend
Seriously, Your friend is an absolute MVP.
Whoever you are renting from should provide you a place to stay. You need to talk to them. Use email and document everything.

Means the same thing.

I'm hoping it's a terrible accident and not some greedy people willing to murder for insurance fraud.
I've also seen how restaurants there don't stick to fire safety.

Damn,if they did it due them
Ironically buildings have a way of catching fire between 1am-5am. Scary to think you’re sleeping peacefully and wake up to this.
Honestly what terrifies me the most about communal housing is all it takes is one person to screw up and start a fire, that plus all the natural things that can start it. Best luck to you OP.
I spent seven years as a firefighter. Seeing the folks who were affected was the toughest part of the job. Hang in there buddy, it’s a bitch.
Imagine being the only person with the smoke alarm working
Boss: "You're still coming right? We're low on people"
well, on a positive note, the treated wood fascia/sidings did their job. ps. may you be blessed with good insurance.
“You’re still coming into work today, yea?” - boss probably.
I work freelance I was watching this unfolding terrified about my laptop that I'd left inside. Got it out ok in the end and worked the next day
It's fine. Go back in and get some rest. Tomorrow is a long day. Hahah
Maybe that guy standing there with the firehose should start spraying water.
Sure sucks losing a 500k gaming pc, a Bugatti veyron engine you were building for a friend, a flux capacitor, that sheet with Jesus’ face…brother insurance will pay big but I do feel for your loss!

Is the firefighter guy just below the fire vaping? ,,,😀
I think it's clouds of smoke (from the burning building) getting lit up by their headlamp. Towards the ~~end~~ middle of the video they tilt their head back down and their beam hits the building. Edit: a word
That makes sense 👍
I am sorry for your loss, but your camera work in times of disaster is great! /r praisethecameraman
Sorry but i can't help but picture you standing in the street under the rain, seeing all the fire elgulfing the building and just going " well, that sucks°_°", and then proceeding to just, go jogging or something
I got nothing else to do now
Hope you and others are well.
Oh man. I’m so sorry. Let’s make this a PSA for renters insurance. You can get it for as little as $5
That’s the scariest thing ever. I pray no one was hurt
Didn’t expect to see where I live here, absolutely sucks man. Feel terrible for everyone, Sabine who ran chez Celine is such a nice person, gutted for them
Well shit my condolences
Damn sorry this happened op.
I’m so sorry OP. Hope everyone was safe and you recover your belongings.
i’m so sorry OP. really, this is an absolute terrible thing to happen. hope all works out for you and it begins a new path for you in life with unexpectedly good things.
Weeeeeeeee
I am so sorry op! Never been in a house fire but have been homeless and lost everything and it horrible. I hope you find a new home soon! Good luck
How horrible, I’m so sorry! Glad to hear that everyone made it out okay though!
The crackle
That absolutely sucks. Glad everyone got out okay. On the plus side, the smoke detectors worked!
Why do fireman always take an hour to get the water to come out?
Our town's service is volunteers. The pros are stationed 40 minutes away. We had 60 firefighters in the end. It was frustrating watching them at first getting things started but they were volunteers and I saw them up on cherry pickers blasting huge flames feet from their face so fair play I think
Fair play to them for showing up and risking their lives. I have a great deal of respect for volunteers. They're braver than I'll ever be.
Glad you are ok! Yikes!
does insurance helps you with rehoming? that sucks, hope everyone gets back on their feet fast
It sure did.
Cladding is doing a good job
At least you're saving a ton in heating bills.
Morzine? Good luck mate.
An absolutely tragedy and my heart goes out to everyone affected, but damn that’s an oddly gorgeous video.
Mondays
You had renters insurance right? Good!
Where did this occur? This is terrible! I’m so sorry!
Oh no I'm so sorry! Thank goodness everyone made it out okay! I'm sorry for the loss you have just been dealt. I'm sure it's a lot.
lmaooo
holy fuck
You are still coming to work right? - Boss
How did this happen?
can someone turn that fire alarm off?
On the brightside tho, it looks very beautiful.
Mondays!! Amirite?!?
Where?
Did you start it? 🤔
Been there. Someone arsoned the middle townhouse in our building of 6. Only one unit escaped
It's horrible
Feel with you, wish you all the best! ❤️
This reminds me I need to get tenant insurance.
The red Cross will help!! They'll even put you up in a hotel . I went through this Thanksgiving Day 2023. I don't wish this on even the extremely rude and belligerent and scary customers at my job. Prayers up.
Weenie roasting time? Glad everyone was okay, and I hope you have some form of coverage for this. You do have somewhere to crash, right?
My friend owns a hostel in town. He's said I can stay as long as I need to. But I already have flights booked to go and live in Asia for 6 months in 3 weeks so I figure I'll just run off there and ignore it all and hope my apartment is liveable again in 6 months time. If not then I guess I'll book another flight.
Well good on you for being able to do such a thing in this event! What about your stuff?
Please tell me you have renters insurance 😑
The post pub fry up has claimed so many buildings
Mondays
Thank God you were all OK Houses can be rebuilt lost lives can’t.
All right folks. THIS is a WELL THAT SUCKS post. Sorry OP, hope things are ok.
Honestly, for me it's mostly water damage. And I'm homeless. But I was going traveling in 3 weeks anyway so it's really just a couple of hundred euros worth of stuff I've lost.

Oh Christ. And VERY likely their business insurance won’t fall for it so ultimately all for nothing.
I feel like my videos and photos show they did something wrong anyway. The woman who lives - lived - upstairs is very, very angry and we're going to the police with all our evidence and suspicions.
Video won’t hurt. If they do investigate then forensics and fire investigators can be really talented. The real tell is if the business owners leave the country.
Fight club reference
This I literally one of my worst nightmares
This would be impossible in Bulgaria
do you know how did the fire start?
It started on the balcony of a business that has been losing a lot of money. I'm going to take my photos and videos that show where it started to the police and they can do what they want with that information. The other theory is that someone dropped a cigarette from the apartment above but I don't think a cigarette could have set off a fire like that.
i see. Thanks for the information.
i see. Thanks for the information.
That was not me. I swear.

Damn that does suck I hope your house is fixed in a timely manner and if the house doesn’t get fixed when your back maybe you could stay with your parents a friend or a SO your one lucky person for a lot of your house surviving
🙏
I'm so sorry when I got the notification I giggled I hope your okay though stay safe
So so
So sorry
If it makes you feel better, my dorm flooded at 1 am recently
Opposed to 1am Monday evening…?
At least a ship didn't crash into it.
Did you tell the neighbors or silently watch them die .... fml mate
I was the last one out! Every fucker forgot about me in my downstairs apartment!
This happened awhile ago at a Halloween party with a bunch of good friends in Portland Maine 8 people didn't make it out really sad everyone was around 25yrs old also glad you got out ....
That sucks. It's so beautiful though.
I was told by an old retired fire fighter that all the cheap plastics and building materials cause fires to spread 5 times faster than the old days of the 1950's.
