I read an article before I came here and it said something to it was a fridge that exploded on the fourth floor. A man I suppose who said this to a neighbor on the on same floor as they exited his fridge just exploded...something like that.
I never heard of such so I looked up exploding fridges...sharing link in case anyone interested:

While I don't doubt the article, I doubt the claim that it happened for that building. I can certainly see a bad fire being caused by an exploding fridge in one room or even one unit, but for it to overtake the entire building as fast as it did suggests something more, like something highly flammable already throughout the building.
Then again, as I write, and envision how such a thing might come about, I suppose the initial blast could jostle gaslines to a bunch of units, causing leaks throughout the building, that would swiftly ignite, causing further explosions and further weakening of other lines throughout the building as the fire spread.
If the building was in such bad condition as the articles all claim, that might be a feasible explanation.
My hunch says deliberate though...I hope not, I hope that's just my paranoid cynicism talking. Time will tell.

Okay fine with me if you doubt Nen...I not into debating the issue or spending lots of my time in regards such to such a topic. I need to keep my focus for other things more important to home base at this time.
I will say I did had a neighbor once who nigh lost...nearly loose themselves and they children when a car battery explode in the middle of the night in their car parked in their garage. Could have been if they away or some other scenario I be in the line of that fire as other neighbors ...plenty of fuel about...gas, natural and otherwise, etc.
okay gotta go ...bye for now....

By the end of it I was mostly agreeing with you and actually wrote out how it could have happened.

I know it was a convoluted post and I probably should've erased the first paragraph after my brain worked things through....
Personally I'm blaming the fever I have...:-/

OMGOMGOMG there are people waving on the roof for help! They just zoomed in on the live feed. Jesus Crikey, isn't there any way to get people off the top of a burning roof? Now I'm upset...:x

There is some fear of the building collapsing, at some point. So far, it's holding up pretty good but some pieces can be seen flying down, near the top of the building, Grenfell Tower, in north Kensington.
