NOT EVEN CLOSE. Quoting: Bad Bob The incendiary bombing of Dresden burned over a hundred thousand people alive. For SIZE the Wisconsin fire was the largest one day fire recorded in at least North America. For DEATH TOLL Dresden and Tokyo were MUCH worse, as were Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The FOUR simulataneous fires in Mich, Ill, Wisc, and Minn when taken together are the largest single one/two day fire event for size in recorded human history. ALL started by "nature" (if you believe Randall Carlson) Talking about two totally different things when Dresden, Tokyo, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki - all HUMAN caused, are throw into the mix.

Worst fire as longest burning ( maybe Chernobyl? If we regard nuclear) Or maybe largest landmass? I would go with a california wildfire , maybe the St Thomas fire, which I lived through. Or maybe most dead ? Seems Hisroshima and Nagasaki must be taken into account, unless we want to squeeze Fukeshima in there potentially, technically a fire of sorts. Dresden could fit all three criteria almost. |

It was Saturday October 7th, and the air smelled of smoke and the wildlife was restless, moving about. Railway workers were finished with their work week and built a little brushfire to burn garbage...it got out of control. The air was so hot it was almost electrifying and "dry lightning" was sparking fires. People were uneasy. Quoting: American Indian Elder By morning the worst was feared. A little river divided Wisconsin from Michigan, with a wooden bridge over it. The train came in during the week on the rail bridge and dropped of hundreds of regular americans and foreign workers. Most just got on trains on a rumor the lumber camps were hiring, after the Civil War, men had to leave home to find work and many of the foreigners would never be identified. In the deep woods, filled with towering old growth trees, thousands of Chippewa families were settling into their winter camps, the men hunting or fishing in Lake Michigan or the many lakes while the women and children made camp. Their number would be vastly undercounted since they were trapped in the area where the fires reached 2,ooo degrees and the children were cremated totally to ashes. We felt at least 1,200 of our relatives perished. Even if they found and open field and covered the children and huddled together, the fire sucked the oxygen out and some say the fire tornadoes pulled the little ones up into them. The priest and parishioners dug into the sand and buried records and sacred items and he directed them to leave at once as the sky shimmered red all around them. Those with boats went out into the lake and those trapped went to the river which the Priest later wrote was crowded with wildlife and domestic animals, living and dead. It was so hot people's hair was bursting into flames, he put little kids onto the backs of cattle and herded them downriver to the lake. That's kindergarten fire.

The fire was a result of leaving dead wood on the ground and not doing controlled burns. Quoting: FlashBuzzkill The eye witnesses who survived listed; * the railway workers were exhausted after a week long work stint of hard labor and were burning the scraps precisely so no dead wood would be on the ground, as they usually did. The wind in the Upper Peninsula can go from zero to 59mph gusts on land its bad enough, on the Lakes it means waves suddenly 20 foot high. * There was "dry lightening and that can cause fires.\ * People are pretty careful up here about fires and the DNR will be right on you in a NO BURN time but alot of end of year viewing of the fall leaves had alot of careless campers up there. * Lightening etc caused alot of controlled burns and the Natives allowed that because it was good for the forests. * The smell of smoke was in the air a good 24 hrs ahead due to a long drought even the swamps had dried up.Just tree limbs rubbing each other in the winds that day could have made a spark, and one spark from a campfire, as well. Most of our people did escape, going to the shores of L. Superior or L. Michigan with their camps to wait it out. Some farmers went into their wells thinking they were safe in the cold water and they boiled to death. amdg Forgiveness means giving up every hope for a better past, In exchange for a better future. P.S. Ive always had an American Flag, now all of a sudden you gave me a Canada one. ?? Please whoever did this change it back.

That was a deliberate bombing of what was the most beautiful city in all of Europe with buildings that looked like wedding cake and artisans on every corner, known for its porcelain, etc. The bombing was done to destroy the spirit of the people. The cit!y felt it would be safe like Paris would be, for its beauty.Or because of the huge hospital which actually had americans in it . The bombs were napalm and another substance which could NOT be put out. the citizens who ran to the river found relief but as soon as they lifted a burning arm out of the water it continued to burn. Thousands of people, families, young people faced either drowning or burning to death. Such things are never right to happen...like Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the end does not justify the means, and dehumanizes us all. amdg Forgiveness means giving up every hope for a better past, In exchange for a better future.
