Oh, dude, the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire happened because of a combination of unsafe working conditions, like locked doors and flammable materials, and a lack of proper fire safety measures. It was like a perfect storm of negligence and disregard for worker safety. The tragic event served as a wake-up call for better labor laws and workplace safety standards.
The fire occurred because the factory's owners, Max Blanck and Isaac Harris, did not do many things. They did not run fire drills, did not check to make sure the fire hose worked, did not put enough fire buckets or even fill the 24 buckets there were, did not trust there workers, so they locked the doors and did not even teach the girls how to stay calm in a fire. The hanging shirtwaist patterns were perfect for a fire to spread. Blanck and Harris allowed the men to smoke and one day a fire started because of the smokers. That's how the fire started.
