Description:

Some natural and man-made disasters have a devastating toll but also implications on our social history. Something that happened long ago can still affect the way we live today. In this episode, the 1958 Springhill coal mine disaster where a collapse of the mine buried 174 men 13,000 feet underground. Other miners raced to help dig out their fellow colleagues and worked for days without sleep. 75 men died in this tragedy. Also, the 1929 Grand Banks tsunami, triggered by a submarine earthquake. The huge wave hit mostly Burin Peninsula, in Newfoundland, killing 28 people and shattering many houses, fishing boats, businesses. <45mn 57s>
