Just seen this news flash. It's apparently one of the tallest residential buildings in the entire world. From the video, the flames are in the upper part of the building, but there are bound to be lots of people still up there!
Nasty! I'd have thought a modern building like that would have a superb sprinkler system installed and be made of fire retardant materials so if a fire did start it should't get far!
I wonder how fire crews train for these big buildings ?

In this case fire crews had been called out to the same building many times since it was built, including three call-outs in the previous week, in response to repeated "false alarms" - were they really "false"?

Probably.. Because the building didn't burn down last week did it.

Electrical faults can smoulder on for a long time before they become obvious.
