In the depths of chaos, a blazing inferno engulfs Surrey Commercial Docks in Rotherhithe during the Blitz. The flames dance with fury, consuming everything in their path, leaving only destruction and despair behind. Amidst this terrible accident, a haunting image emerges - a lady ablaze. Figure 1 captures her agony as she becomes one with the fire, her silhouette etched forever in history's tragic tales. Nottingham Castle stands tall but not invincible; on that fateful day of October 10th, 1831, it succumbs to flames. A mid-19th-century oil painting immortalizes its fiery demise on canvas, reminding us of the fragility of even grand structures. Printemps Store aflame ignites panic and fear as smoke billows into the sky. The heart-wrenching sight leaves Parisians stunned by the destructive power unleashed upon their beloved city. Bloemfontein witnesses horror as its government building is set ablaze. Flames lick at its walls while chaos reigns supreme amidst cries for help and desperate attempts to salvage what remains. The Austrian July Revolt of 1927 unleashes anarchy upon Vienna's Palace of Justice. As it burns fiercely against the night sky, justice itself seems consumed by rage and turmoil. Inverary Castle falls victim to an unforgiving fire that ravages its ancient halls. Centuries of history reduced to ashes as Scotland mourns this devastating loss. Figure 2 portrays yet another terrible accident - a lady ablaze once more caught in tragedy's grip. Her anguished expression serves as a chilling reminder that fate can be mercilessly cruel. A mining town nestled in Ontario's South Porcupine faces disaster when fire engulfs a supply store on a scorching July day. Panic ensues among residents who fight valiantly against nature's wrath. Pengwern Hall stands no chance against the relentless flames that engulf St. Asaph in Wales.
