Contrary to popular belief, sprinkler systems are quite effective at controlling fires and aren't just for saving lives.

Didn't you hear 9/11 was solved? Now that just leave the 4 blood moons . . . . this passover is going to be a blast.

The building has not collapsed, this is definitive proof 9/11 was an inside job, or that indian slaves make better construction workers than fat americans
The fire is out!!
A fire erupted early Saturday morning at the Marina Torch in Dubai, the 79-floor skyscraper that is among the world's tallest residential buildings. According to a report in the English-language Gulf News, hundreds were evacuated from the building but high winds hindered firefighters' initial efforts to contain the blaze. It has since been extinguished, according to local witnesses.
Resident Kathryn Dickie told ABC News that the building's fire alarms started blaring about 2 a.m. She lives on the 13th foor.
"The guards were pretty frantic," she said.
There were no immediate reports of deaths or injuries in the blaze, which was believed to have started around the 52nd floor. The building is part of the densely populated and highrise-filled marina district, popular among Dubai's ex-patriate population.
Those nearby have flooded social media with frightening and spectacular images .

Don't have any experience with buildings of that size but I would have to think the sprinkler system didn't work since a cigarette butt should do no more than a room and contents type fire that a sprinkler should have easily contained. Also have to wonder about the construction that it allowed a fire to spread like that.
9/11 recordings say they could 'knock it down with two lines'.
They have connections for firetrucks at ground level and then ports on each floor. The only other route up would be the stairs and flexible lines.
