Some Fire Facts You (Probably) Didnât Know:
- In Iraq, a natural gas vent known as âThe Eternal Fireâ has been burning for over 4,000 years. Itâs been mentioned by ancient historians like Herodotus and Plutarch, and even shows up in the Book of Daniel. Eternal indeed.
- Irony alert: No one knows who invented the fire hydrantâbecause the patent was destroyed⌠in a fire.
- In 258 A.D., St. Lawrence was martyred by being roasted alive on a griddle. Legend says he quipped, âI am done on this side; you may turn me over now.â Naturally, he became the Patron Saint of chefs and comedians.

The most important fire fact of all? Stuff burns. Fast. Eyebrows have vanished in less time than it takes to say âwhoosh.â
