I have a scar on our back and it is because of our parent’s gas fireplace. Last Christmas I went cabin to our parents house. My mom has this thing where our siblings and I all need to spend the night in her house. She wants all the kids under her roof for 1 night. Christmas afternoon is when I got our scar. I was used to radiant floors, since that is what I have. My heated flooring system is below the floorboards, silent and never gets too hot. There is never a fear of burning myself. My parents had a gas fireplace with a glass plate front. The glass front shows a decorative fire burning. It has fake logs and sparks. A little corny, however cute and effective at heating. Well, I did not suppose anything about the glass plate. I had our shirt off since the heating was intense and opening presents. I was sitting on the ledge of the gas furnace when I decided to lean back. I wanted to use the glass as a back rest. I burned the crap out of our back just by touching it for a few minutes. The glass plate was so sizzling that it burned our skin off. My skin burnt to the glass plate and I now have a scar the shape of a peanut on our back. My mother eventually got our skin off the heater. But, I still have the burn scar on our back due to that fireplace. I did not realize that
