The largest wildfire in Los Angeles history has obliterated over 10,000 structures, turning entire neighborhoods into ash and leaving thousands homeless. Smoke blankets the region, prompting a public health emergency, while insurers brace for billions in claims. Among those affected are notable figures, including Paris Hilton, who lost her home to the inferno.

The fire’s unprecedented destruction has left behind smoldering ruins of countless homes and possessions. However, amidst the devastation, a few properties miraculously remained unscathed. One such home belongs to David Steiner, a retired Texas waste-management magnate. His $9 million Malibu mansion astonishingly survived the blaze that ravaged surrounding areas.

Steiner, speaking to The New York Post, expressed disbelief at the outcome. “It’s a miracle—miracles never cease,” the 64-year-old remarked. A local contractor had shared video footage of flames and smoke encircling Steiner’s vacant three-story mansion, leading him to fear the worst.

Since Tuesday, six simultaneous wildfires have swept across Los Angeles County, killing at least 11 people and displacing thousands more. Firefighters are continuing house-to-house searches, and the toll of lives and property loss is expected to rise as operations progress.

As the flames push further into the hills, even celebrity homes have not been spared, underscoring the indiscriminate nature of this disaster. Recovery efforts are ongoing, with the community rallying to support those affected.
