The Tesla Coil Christmas Tree 1
On average Christmas tree fires cause $3 million in damage and kill 6 people. That isn't dangerous enough for some, so they built this one out of electricity.
This restaurant was advertising breakfast any time. So I ordered french toast in the renaissance. - Steven Wright, comedian

Watch this to see how fast a tree lights up. Now, imagine your 6 month old sitting in that chair. Now, imagine you're in the next room making dinner or something. There's no time to save anybody in that situation.
Just get a plastic tree, and you won't have to worry about rescuing your family in 20 seconds before they are burned to death by the tree.
Scary. Just plain scary.
