Had a tealight that I thought I’d put out the night before. It smouldered overnight, caught fire and my 5 year old woke me saying she could smell smoke. Half asleep, I poured tea on it.
Fireball to the face and a screaming child was a really unfun way to finish waking up. She was safely out of the blast, and luckily I had only minor burns.
Same for wax (candles).
