On the 5th of September, 2020, at around 10:20am, an extended family group gathered on the edge of the El Dorado Ranch Park in Yucaipa, California. They were there for a gender reveal party – a celebration intended to reveal the gender of an as-yet-unborn child in a surprising and dramatic fashion. Unfortunately, the exact mechanism this family chose for their big reveal would soon result in a devastating and fatal wildfire, which would go on to ravage the area for months to come. It would be just the latest in a string of devastating incidents resulting from failed gender reveal parties.
