This is one of my biggest fears in life. That a fire could destroy all my pictures. I'm a lucky guy in that alot of my friends and family are shutterbugs, so I'm not too concerned about the more recent pictures that are all digital. But all the pictures I accumulated in my teens and early 20s are prints. And like an idiot, I threw away the negatives.
If I woke up and my place was on fire I'd probably risk injury grabbing photo albums and my external hard drive.
