People install a home security camera system to make themselves feel safer, and nowadays these systems are viewable from a tablet or smartphone, so you can watch your house at all times.
But this power to visually lord over your home kingdom can be a curse too, because the same cameras that film burglars in the act stare blankly as your house burns down around them.
The home featured in this video shared by Storyful News fell victim to the Fort McMurray wildfire, and the owners were able to watch the whole fiery scene unfold on their iPhone, that is, until the smoke blocked the view...Ain't modern technology grand?
