Default Only what you can carry

The fire alarm went off last night in my building. For those of you who dont take fire alarms seriously, Id say you didnt grow up with a firefighter in your family. Since I live in a loft apartment on the 5th floor, getting out of there quickly is even more important. In the immediate moments following waking up to a blaring alarm like this and trying to throw pants on, I start thinking what should I take with me...I wouldnt be able to make 2 trips, only what i can carry and gather in under a minute.
I thought obviously I need to grab my 2 cats. But then I thought about all the important documents I have that are irreplacable or would just be very difficult to regain. Then I thought about family heirlooms, and my laptop even crossed my mind. I ended up just scooping my cats up 1 in each hand and getting out.
Obviously it ended up being not a serious fire, it was under control in no time.
What would you save if you only had a minute and what you could personally carry?
