Really funny story- I almost started a forest fire :D

HELP-
funny true story - the other day my dad wanted me to start the barbecue pit, so I cleaned the leftover coals and threw them out, and then my brother put the new ones in. then we made them in like a volcano shape, and I went inside and since we didn't have a lighter, and we have a gas stove that emits fire, I got a piece of cardboard, rolled it into a long stick, then lit it, I had to run out the house and put it in the fire. So then my dad says before we leave "DONT BURN THE HOUSE DOWN!" but jokingly.
Then I finally put it into charcoal volcano. and the fire RAGES! and this is where everything goes downhill. My brother left the bag of charcoal right next to it, and it caught on fire. there were still coals in it, so they started to burn. and then my brother was yelling at me, putting the blame on me and everything. then I was all like- why don't we just throw a few charcoals on the floor to crush out the fire? so we did that, and it worked splendidly. But we couldn't do that with all the other ones, so we tried to tip the bag into the pit. then, my brother started pushing it away, and closer to the edge of the platform thing the bag was on. or at least what was left of the bag. And then the whole thing fell. the whole bag. Everything was on fire, mind you. and we have dead grass in the back, because it hasn't rained in weeks. and we were just going around, stomping out the coals on the floor, and the grass almost got caught, if it wasn't for the fact that we had a little bit of a concrete patio. and they fell on there. Chicken was good, though :)
my dad doesn't trust us with real fire anymore.

also there are lots of dead trees outback, so yeah
