On December 6, 1917, Halifax, Canada experienced one of the deadliest man-made disasters in history. A wartime collision in its harbor triggered an explosion so powerful it erased entire neighborhoods in seconds.

This event killed nearly 2,000 people, injured thousands more, and permanently changed how governments approach emergency response and urban safety. At the time, it was the largest human-caused explosion ever recorded.

Though its impact reshaped disaster preparedness worldwide, the Halifax Explosion remains largely forgotten outside history books. This is the true story of what happened—and why it still matters.
