To be real safe, it's good to have a fire extinguisher handy. Not that you'd ever (hopefully) need one, but it can't hurt to be safe. If you need a fire extinguisher you can use for any type of fire, get this one from Kidde: [ Ссылка ]

Known as Chinese Lanterns, or Sky Lanterns depending on where you live, these flying lanterns are absolutely beautiful and amazing to watch. People worry about them starting fires, but that just isn't the case if you launch them in appropriate locations -- which is almost anywhere there is no brush or trees or buildings. Many places on planet earth qualify as excellent lantern launching locations.

Once a lantern is launched, it rises on the hot air trapped within the paper envelope. When the fire source burns out, the lantern falls to earth. So the fire safety of these lanterns is ensured. Only the remains, paper and bamboo, return to earth.

There are festivals where thousands of lanterns of launched at one time. The site is incredible to behold. New Mexico has a huge lantern festival every year, as do other locations around the world.
