We had a yard fire pit one time, and the fire was burning low later in the pm. Someone threw a nice 4X4 pallet on to it, and soon there was a fire twenty feet up in the air, and roaring.

Pallets are perfectly constructed to burn, bigly.

A pile of them ought to start a forest fire easily.

"Pallets are perfectly constructed to burn, bigly."

Aren't they? Perfectly spaced highly combustible, dried wood.

Remember the I-10 Freeway fire in Los Angeles in November 2023? Pallets were stored under the freeway overpass! What an incredibly stupid thing to do. The fire was almost impossible to get under control. It got so intense an LAFD fire truck burned up and the freeway was closed eight days for repairs. It re-opened WEEKS ahead of the original repair schedule!
