The Ostankino Tower Fire: A Technological Catastrophe

On August 27, 2000, the Ostankino Tower in Moscow experienced a devastating fire that became one of the most significant technological disasters in Russia's modern history. Starting in the feeder hall, the fire erupted at approximately 17:08, leading to reports of smoke reaching the tower's spire by 17:17. The incident was partially captured by a film crew, showcasing the urgent response to the blaze, which lasted nearly a full day. The intense heat resulted in the failure of over half of the steel cables holding up the tower, creating a critical risk of structural collapse. At 540 meters, the Ostankino Tower, completed in 1967, remains the tallest non-residential building in Europe and was once recognized as the tallest building in the world. This incident prompted a reevaluation of fire safety measures and highlighted the vulnerabilities associated with high-rise construction.
