Have you heard about the fire in a restaurant in Switzerland?

Amazing .
A blazing inferno .
Very rare .
Suggest you also notice the terrible loss of life before pointing out that you noticed a story about an inferno rather than a blaze .

Fire at Swiss Alpine resort bar during New Year's celebration kills at least 40, injures 115

The Crans-Montana resort is best known as an international ski and golf venue, and overnight, its crowded Le Constellation bar morphed from a scene of revelry into the site of potentially one of Switzerland’s worst tragedies.

impossible, sparklers are only sparking within a range of a foot or so, held many, they don't go up into the rafters so something is way off

who the hell lights a sparkler inside with wood, even if they threw it up into the rafters, they are hot but the wood does not have an oil or tar coating, it would certainly smolder and not fire system kicked on?

The swiss are smart, even a ski resort has that

If the ceiling is low
And a person sits on somebody.s shoulder, the sparks may reach the ceiling.

So it is explained.

On the evening news a witness said that at midnight, the waitresses were serving bottles of champagne with lighted sparklers stuck in the bottles, which they were carrying on a tray held high. Apparently, the height at which they were being carried was high enough for the sparks from the sparklers to reach the wooden ceiling which then ignited. The fire is alleged to have spread from there.

Yes, so it can be explained.
Especially if a person sits on another person.s shoulder.

It must be one of the worst accidents in Swiss history.
the flags will fly on half mast.
