“Scary Interesting”
On May 10th, 1897, 35 miners started down the 1000-foot ladder to the depths of the Snaefell Mine. Many of these men would never see the light of day again. This is their horrifying story. As always, viewer discretion is advised.

Scrolling up from the 69th level of FUCK the tv
@ScaryInteresting Thank you so much for the thoughtful way you make your videos. You label each person involved with their name. You label each level in the cave. You illustrate (with colors) how the cave filled up. You really put the extra step in to make sure all your viewers (even neurodivergent ones) can all understand what is going on in the story. You don’t confuse the story by telling it out of chronological time, or adding in information that has nothing to do with the main story. You keep on theme with no distractions. I wish every YouTuber would be as good at storytelling as you are. Thank you, and please don’t change!
change that e to and o and you get what happens when the girl-scouts come aknocking at my door 🤣🤣
What is the music called at the very first 1-10seconds of the video, it's so relaxing.
WHY THE NOISE???
filtration systems flashbacks
6:40 This is why you pay attention during your high school chemistry class.
Yeah, I'll stick to pit mines. Thanks.
minors working in mines?
Anytime says the past was better juwt say "Hey remember how like less than 100 years ago how we had to go into a deadly hole that could suffocate us at any moment in order to get metal? Wasn't that great? And the gas could be flammable too and you're lighting your way with a flame so good luck!"
Why didn't they have headlamps ?
The headlamps were to show if CO or CO2 was present
If the lamp goes out, GET OUT
This has been the practice for over a century
The air pipe that powers the drills is also supposed to be used to send fresh air into the mine
I remember the story of Howe Caverns, the morning of the blasting at the quarry nearby was cold , colder than the inside of the cave, but usually the cave was colder than the outside, so they didn't think about the blasting.
The CO that was created in the extremely cold morning air rushed into the 50 degree cave and the man who went in to do the morning check of the cave died in the cave from CO
damn thats a Lot of children being left behind 🙁
Thanks. A story suggestion. One of the great accidents of nature occurred in Siberia in 1908 when a fireball exploded above a remote forest area of Siberia, creating shock waves which were felt half a world away. THE FIRE CAME BY goes into great depth and explores scientific views worldwide, as well as on-the-scene reports and interviews. The book makes the fantastic comprehensible and gives the event a threatening immediacy.

Poor mouse bruh😢
companies forever not keeping up with safety conditions and trying to min max profits even at the risk of workers nothing ever changes

CONGRATS ON 1 MILLY!!!
I've similarly had some experience with Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: On a random, cold, winter morning, and my GF decided to take a shower and get ready for the day. But first, she turned up the thermostat a few degrees, and then headed off to the master bath. A couple of minutes after she got in the shower, I heard a loud Thud. I ran to the door and asked her if she was ok. There was no response…. Next, I yelled that I was coming in, and I opened the door to see her lying unconscious and kinda tangled up in the shower curtain.
As I stood there confused, trying to make sense of the situation, then after about 5 seconds, it hit me to. EXTREME fatigue and dizziness. I suddenly couldn't feel anything, it was like my head wasn't connected to by body, and my ears were ringing. And then I started to feel myself falling over, and I realized something was VERY wrong here, and I needed to get her out of there fast, or we'd both be laying there. I grabbed a nearby towel and scooped her up. My adrenaline was the only energy I had. And I remember internally telling myself over and over. Do Not Stop Moving!!!! It took everything I had to carry her to the front yard where I collapsed. My memory of the event is corrupted, it's like watching a movie with a very low frame rate, and no color or sound. I called 911, they sent the usual suspects, and we were both ok afterwards.
*The central heating unit had become faulty (according to the fire department). It was blowing the exhaust gasses out of the heater vents. The unit was situated very close to the master bed/bath. So she got a full dose, while I, at the other end of the house, was exposed to much less, until I opened that door and it all hit me to…. Since then I've NEVER gone without a good smoke/gas detector.
One question remains, why didn't they use oillamps? Here in Germany miners often used oillamps and birds to check if there are "mininggases" like CO or Methane. When the flame of the lamp starts to go dimmer you know it is time hurry and if it goes brighter should run even faster. Same with the bird, when the bird suddenly stopped chirping it is very likely that it was poisened by CO.
