First off, I’m very glad she survived and wish her a full recovery.
That out of the way, there’s an old joke about a guy who works in a chocolate factory who slips and falls into a vat of chocolate. He starts yelling, “FIRE!”, and shortly workers show up and rescue him. One of them asks, “Hey, how come you yelled “fire”? He answers, “I figured if I yelled “CHOCOLATE!” no one would notice.”
Tldr; a woman reported smelling gas, reported it to her supervisors who told her to go back to work. Later, the woman was on a ladder when the explosion caught her on fire and knocked her to the ground. As she tried to run, the ground gave way, and she fell a storey into a vat of chocolate waist high, breaking both her heels. Then, as the firefighters started hosing down the burning rubble, the water started collecting in the vat where she was, forcing her to climb out when it got to neck level. She then waited for hours holding onto plastic before she was rescued. The friend that was with her right before the explosion died.

In totally unrelated story an emergency room nurse was fired for repeatedly licking a patient.
