    The Sandoz Chemical Spill

    In this episode of Compact Disasters, we examine the Sandoz chemical spill, the 1986 industrial disaster that turned the Rhine red. What began as a fire at a chemical warehouse near Basel soon became an international environmental emergency, as contaminated firefighting water carried pesticides, insecticides and other toxic substances into one of Europe's most important rivers. We follow the night of the fire, the death of river life, the public anger that followed, and the safety reforms that changed how Europe managed chemical risk.

    The Kaprun Funicular Fire

    In this episode of Compact Disasters, we examine the Kaprun Funicular Fire, one of the deadliest Alpine transport disasters in modern history. On 11 November 2000, a ski train carrying passengers towards the Kitzsteinhorn glacier caught fire inside a steep tunnel near Kaprun, Austria. What began as an ordinary journey to the slopes became a catastrophic failure of design, escape planning, and emergency preparedness. We look at how the fire started, why the tunnel became so deadly, how only a handful escaped, and why the legal aftermath left many families still searching for accountability.
