Seriously, why would anyone choose those? Wouldn't it have been easier to just find a screencap from a movie for the "Hollywood" version and one from some news footage for the "Real"?

Real fire #1: here

Real fire #2 here

Hollywood fire: Final Destination

Hard to find actual photos of an interior fire. No one is usually bothering to take pictures...

Both images pulled. I liked the first IRL fire picture.

Previous:

Indoor Hollywood fires tend to have more flame and less smoke.

Indoor fires in real life tend to be harder to see due to all the thick smoke.

^ Those two are the ones that are currently there, and that we want to replace.

Those weren't my suggestions. When I pull images, I almost always follow with

Previous:

[image and caption]

so that it doesn't get suggested again and so that people don't have to go through the page history to find out what was there before.

I like that. Caption something like "No smoke at all"?

Not only no smoke, but the kid would be in agony in flames that close.

I shrunk it down even more, so it'll fit on the page better:
