Fires are just one problem. A friend lost pretty much everything when his house was flooded by a pipe bursting on the top floor while they were on vacation. The "fire proof" safe was in the basement (as suggested) was not designed to be submerged with water as the basement filled with water.

Any sorts of natural disaster can cause you to lose it all if you do not have remote backups. (I am in IT, and continuity of operations is a consideration)
