A miraculous escape from a fire that destroyed a home was triggered by the smell of smoke.

Three young men in Brisbane's inner city narrowly avoided a tragic fate when their home suddenly caught fire. It was a terrifying experience for the three roommates, who were lucky enough to escape the flames unharmed. The incident took place on Mollison Street in West End, and even now, firefighters are still on the scene dealing with the aftermath of the blaze that erupted just after midnight.

It all started when one of the tenants smelt smoke and immediately woke his two roommates. They quickly sprang into action and made their escape, wasting no time in calling Triple Zero for help. By the time the fire crews arrived, the house was already engulfed in flames, requiring 10 trucks to bring the situation under control. Sadly, despite their best efforts, the firefighters were unable to save the home or any of the residents' belongings.

One of the residents described the harrowing experience, saying, "I woke up to Julian coming into my room, screaming a little bit and telling me to get out. There was smoke everywhere and I could feel the heat coming up from underneath me." Another resident expressed his devastation at losing all of his possessions in the fire. It's truly heartbreaking to see everything you own go up in flames in a matter of minutes.

To make matters worse, a toxic smoke warning has been issued for the residents living nearby. The authorities are urging them to stay indoors and keep their windows shut until the area is deemed safe. According to Glen Arnold from Queensland Fire and Rescue, the blaze was intense and could have had much more tragic consequences. "The boys were lucky to escape with their lives and in good health," he stated.

As the firefighters work to put out the last of the flames, investigators are already trying to piece together what could have caused the fire. It's a painstaking process, but they are determined to find answers to this devastating event. In the meantime, the community is coming together to support the three young men who have lost everything in this tragedy.
