It all started from something small

Its 03:35 as of now , about half an hour ago, I was sleeping.
Put my LiPo to charge at around 02:20 and slept off thinking that it takes about 6 hours to charge so once i get up, it would be still be getting charged.

At 03:00 the alarm of my LiPo started off, and, the moment i opened my eyes, THE ROOM WAS FULL OF SMOKE and there was a small fireball on the LiPO ! I just sprang out of my bed, still weary eyed and was trying to make out of the situation.
Realizing that the LiPo has burnt, i covered my nose, opened the windows and put the Fan to FULL Speed. After waiting some time outside the closed room, i went inside and saw no fire, but lots of smoke, this time not from the LiPo but a MicroFiber cloth that started burning alongside it . Finally dealing with the cloth and seeing the room clear of smoke , just left everything the way it is, and am writing this.

So this is what happened.

Have my table to clear out now :/

Dude the first and very important warning on every lipo and the charger is

"NEVER LEAVE LIPO UNATTENDED WHILE CHARGING"

You just escaped, what might had been a major accident. Please take extreme care while charging lipo.
