In February 2009, Marysville in Victoria, Australia, was one of many towns hit hard by severe bushfires.

Up to 80% of the town was razed by these intense fires, which roared through with little warning, and no way to stop them. 57,000 hectares were burnt in Marysville and surrounding areas including Narbethong and Buxton, and the fire merged with one in Kilmore to produce even more damage. At least 15 townsfolk were killed, just part of the overall death toll of 173.
