We have a fire proof safe
We use it for storing some stuff that we need to lock up sometimes
We do not fool ourselves that magnetic medeia in there will be useable in the 
after math of a real fire
Fire Proof means the papers won't burn
it does not mean magnetic media won't melt

Off site rotation of backups is dirt cheap
All you have to do is trust personnel transporting the media to take prudent 
care of them like not leaving in direct sunlight, storing in car trunk in all 
weather, do not lean up against a telephone etc.
