A disaster can happen at any time. The trigger depends on the kind of disaster.
The Tudhoe Colliery disaster, which occurred on February 16, 1882, was primarily caused by an explosion of firedamp (methane gas) ignited by an open flame from a miner's lamp. Poor ventilation in the mine allowed the accumulation of explosive gases, and insufficient safety measures contributed to the tragedy. The disaster resulted in the deaths of 23 miners, highlighting the dangers of coal mining during that era and prompting calls for improved safety regulations in the industry.
