What's the scariest thing you've woken up to? [View All]

[MadAsHellNewYorker]

this morning, as I’m just about to get up, my roommate asks if I smell something. I’m still half asleep and say, no...but within about 2 seconds, the smell of burning is overpowering. Its getting more and more intense.

We look out the window and see our whole block is filled with fire trucks and fireman. In about 2 more seconds, smoke beings to billow up through the floor and radiators. Its now become a mad dash to get something on, get the bird into his carrier and get the fuck out of our building.

Yea, so we got to wake up to our building on fire this morning. Luckily, no one was hurt, our building is still standing, all of our stuff is OK, and the bird did not die of smoke inhalation :pfew:

but damn. that’s a scary way to start the day off. I’m still shaken. :scared:

So, what is the scariest thing you've ever woken up to?
