11 Mines İn Appalachia Sealed Forever — No One Knows Why
Across the coal counties of Appalachia, eleven mines were sealed forever — some after disasters so severe that rescue crews never finished the recovery, some to starve underground fires of oxygen, and some because a river broke through and no one ever went back. In several of these mines, the bodies of the men who died inside are still there today. This video counts down eleven real, documented coal mine disasters across Virginia, West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina, Ohio, and Pennsylvania — from the Pocahontas mine of 1884 to the Sago mine of 2006. Every story is based on historical and federal mine safety records. In nearly every case, official investigators could explain how the disaster happened, but never fully explained why.
