Hong Kong inferno survivor made final calls to loved ones before escaping building
It was just after 3pm when William Li received the unusual call from his wife, who was at work, saying she'd heard from a friend that their building was on fire.But when he opened his door eight minutes after his wife called, it was already too late to escape as he was immediately engulfed by thick, black smoke.'Everything went black before my eyes,' he told The Associated Press. 'I thought to myself: I'm in serious trouble.'That was just the beginning of Wednesday's blaze at the Wang Fuk Court complex on the outskirts of Hong Kong .It would burn for more than 40 hours and engulf seven of the complex's eight buildings before being finally extinguished Friday morning, claiming the lives of at least 128 people with dozens unaccounted for, making it Hong Kong's deadliest fire since 1948.
