Praying in burning street 'was instinct': California fire survivor posts viral video in fiery embers

A Minnesota storm chaser who found himself inside a burning Los Angeles home during the California wildfires this week described how his faith was "instinct" as he prayed on the ember-filled street while escaping.

Tanner Charles Schaaf, who flew to Los Angeles to spend time with friends during the holidays, said God had told him to extend his trip by a few days. 

"I was praying about it [and] I just felt like I needed to extend it," Schaaf told Fox News Digital. "The next day, the fires broke out."
