Anderson cooper has the story for 60 minutes. Tremendous. Im no expert, just from what i know of, what happened and the things that were torn up in there, had to be like an atomic explosion. Stanley stewart worked at Upper Big Branch mine for 15 years. He was 300 feet underground. Just started his shift when the explosion occurred. I felt a little breeze of air coming from inside. I said, thats not right. Well then it got harder. And we just took off running to the outside. And look, you could see the woosh just keep coming and coming. Seemed like between, two and four minutes. And one of the younger guys said, what happened . I said, the place blew up. Reporter the explosion occurred 1,000 feet underground and nearly three miles inside the mine. The photos taken by the mine saty and Health Administration have never been seen before and show the force of the blast. Flames moving at more than 1,500 feet per second shot through more than 2 1 2 miles of underground tunnels. Investigators believed the blast was caused by a spark that ignited methane gas that had built up due to inadequate ventilation. Highly flammable coal dust allowed to accumulate throughout the mine fueled the explosion. It was early 1900 type of explosion. Conditions should never have existed for that to take place. Stewart was there when some of the 29 miners he worked side by side with for decades were brought to the surface. What kind of condition were they in . Their faces were very black. And it smelled like like, smelled like, dynamite. Ill never forget that smell. The miners ranged in age from 20 to 61. Most were fathers. A third were killed instantly. Robert atkins, a former coal miner and wife shareen lost son jason at the end of his shift heading toward the mine entrance wl when he was overcome by toxic fuels. The coal dust was so bad it carried, ignited, away and took our sons life who was almost out of the mines. Reporter gary quarrels, Third Generation coal miner lost his only child gary wayne who left behind two children. They live up beside us. At times we thought that wasnt a good thing for that to be like that. And then after he after he got killed i said thats, that was a good thing. Reporter gary says he and his son never talked about safety, use in the mines, but gary knew all about it because he had worked there as well. I knew how they operated. They didnt know nothing but to lie, cheat, and outlaw. Thats the way they done things. Thi w mine a a company that was, not an exaggeration to say, run as a criminal enterprise. Reporter assistant u. S. Attorney steve ruby led the prosecution against Don Blankenship along with the saw. Toern for West Virginia booth goodwin. This can be likened to a drug organization. And the defendant was the kingpin. Reporter the defendant, Don Blankenship had for decade been one of West Virginias most influential and powerful figures. The ceo of massie energy, the largest coal producer in appalachia he employed 5,800 people and operated more than 40 mines. Blankenship wouldnt do an interview with 60 minutes for years he condoned and tolerated safety violations for the sack of profit. Right up until the time the mine blew, that was the way the company was ran, everyone undered tunde understood. The corporate mentality that he instilled. That was the culture. Profits over safety. He set the tone. He set the corporate culture. Reporter despite receiving daily reports of the high number of safety violations, prosecutors argued, blankenship did little to correct them because Upper Big Branch was a moneymaker for massey earning 600,000 a day. And blankenships pay was directly tide to every foot of coal mined. In his last three years at massey, blankenships total compensation was 80 million. The men and women we talked to who work in the mine say the was absolutely understood and expected that if you worked at that mine, you were going to break the law in order to produce as much coal as possible as fast as and as cheaply as possible. Everything was produce, produce, produce. It didnt make any difference of the dangers, it didnt make any difference if you had to take short cuts. It was all about put the coal on the belt. The only female miner at Upper Big Branch and wasnt working the day of the explosion, but her fiance boon payne was. He died in the blast. Bobby said she and boon worried every day the mine was an accident waiting to happen. Everybody knew there were problems. Everybody knew there were safety, use . Absolutely. We all knew. Was there enough air in the mine . Our section never had air. Reporter ventilation is critical to mine safety. Fresh air carries explosive coal dust and methane out of the area where miners work. Without adequate ventilation and proper cleanup, coal dust accumulates and is not only highly flammable, it can cause black lung disease. Which most of the miners killed in the explosion were later found to have. Lot of times we wouldnt have any ventilation at all. You couldnt see your hand in front of your face. Really . You could not see your hand in front of your face . Did not see your hand in front of your face. There is not fresh air moving through it. All dust. All dust. Ape dust pump. Prosecutors showed jurors the pumps miners were to wear to measure intake of coal dust. At Upper Big Branch. They were routinely instructed by their bosses to cheat on the test by hanging the pumps in the fresh air. So your measurements when they were tested came in compliant with the law. Reporter federal mine inspectors visited Upper Big Branch almost daily. Prosecutors said the mine had an illegal advance Warning System in place. Security guard at the entrance would relay messages to miners underground, alergt them an inspector was coming. They would use code words. Say it was bad weather. Bad weather. Let you know if he is coming your way or going some other way. You would get word from above. Inspector is coming. They would use code word. And basically clean up your area to make it look right. Yep. Upper big branch was a nonunion mine. Inspectors were the only people miners could turn to for help. But they said word was out they shouldnt be seen talking to inspectors. Was there fear of speaking up . Itch you wanted your job, you kempt your mouth shuttle. Me like a lot of other miners, mining is the only industry. Biggest industry in the state of West Virginia. You have children, you want them to have. You know you want to provide for them. I was a single mom. Reporter you needed that job. I did the best i could. We did the best we could for our families. Some of the stories that they have to tell are horrifying. Being forced to work without fresh air. Being forced to work in water up to their necks. Miles underground. Being forced to work in areas where the roof and the walls of the mine were falling in. Around them. Reporter prosecutors say blankenship was aware of all of the safety problems because he was a micromanager who had oversight over every aspect of massey mines. Personally approving every hire, hourly raise and capital expe expenditu expenditure. He wanted everybodien the come fun know he was in charge. Do it dons way. I expect you to do what i tellup to do when i still you to do it. Reporter his message to managers . Absolutely. Time and again. Thats on tape. This game is about money. The message was repeated and emfa sized by Don Blankenship in phone conversations with mine managers he recorded on machines he installed in his office.
