There was a horrifying apartment building fire in London, England last night. The whole 24-storey building was engulfed in flames. I watched the building burning on the news and it was very scary. Poor people lost everything and many were trapped. As of now at least 6 people have been killed in the fire. I have seen some large fires before but an entire apartment building catching fire is very terrifying. Here is an article from the BBC. Photo credit: AFP/ NATALIE OXFORD
The death toll is expected to rise, say police, as fire crews continue to tackle the blaze in west London.

This is the reason why I do not want to live in a tall building and I do not even want a room in upper floors in hotels.

@tzwrites It takes too long to escape from the stairs.

I am also fearful of living in high-rise apartments.

It's frightening to realize how fast a building can go up in flames. I'm sorry so many people lost their lives.

I think the building will collapse or it will be demolished for sure.
