Fire!
We were all in my aunt's kitchen at the back of her huge rambling Victorian house. I was only small and had wandered off to go to the loo, but given up after finding the hall full of smoke. "That was quick," my mum said after a few minutes. "Yes - it's all smoky," I replied.
I've never seen adults move so fast.
So, like my cousin who'd managed to set fire to the roof, tell us your fire stories.

australian kids
I grew up in australia, and used to have relatives up north in brisbane. Being 8 year old kids, and having heard from the government that cane toads are a pest and should be destroyed, we managed to procure ourselves a can of petrol. Which we duly showered on cane toads and set them alight. Was most fun, after dark, watching a flaming toad bounce around the garden setting fire to various things on the way.
Wasn't as much fun as putting them in plastic bags and playing cricket with them though.
