Masters of Disaster: The Men Who Invented and Perfected Oil Well Firefighting
Update: 2025-07-13
Description
This is the story of three men.
Three men who through their own bravery, creative approach, and lifelong obsessions, created the industry of oil well fire fighting.
Tex Thornton, Myron Kinley, and Red Adair all built up each other's knowledge and success to make scads of money while risking their lives on a daily basis to put out burning oil and gas wells, cap blown out wells, and otherwise battle the most intense and wild forces Mother Nature has to offer.
You'll learn about the major triumphs in their careers, how they came to find themselves in this wild line of work, and why they all fell so deeply in love with it. These guys traveled the globe to places that are remote in 2025 but were beyond exotic more than 75 years ago.
It's all true but it's still unbelievable.
