Christmas Tree Fire Test

This is an example of how fast a Christmas tree can burn once it is on fire. Check out how dry your tree is so it does not put your home and family at risk. This Christmas tree is a Douglas Grand Fir that was 10 feet tall. The flames reached 23 feet into the air and it took 25 seconds to reach that height. Have a safe New Year. Does this surprise you?
