The Osawa Yuka Archiveslast thing you want to do is ruin Christmas... and your entire house. You probably don't want that either.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission posted a video Dec. 5 of the difference between a dry and watered tree. The outcome of the dry tree is something out of the pits of hell.

It takes less than a minute for a dry tree to erupt in flames, so they suggest you water your tree like you're taking care of a plant.

But if the first video doesn't give you any indication to keep you and your family safe, another recent video published by the National Institute of Standards and Technology will show your tree burning up in seconds.

Seconds.

You can say goodbye to all your presents (especially that iPhone X someone hid for you this year). It's the new level of coal for Christmas.

So, two things we've learned: Maybe stick with a fake tree or treat your tree with care and water that damn thing.
