If you only want to spend one minute on it, footage of the actual event starts at about 15:52 and is followed immediately by an animated diagram of how it worked (detonation 1.5km below the surface which collapsed the well from the side).

The CC works for English. It is not only diagrams, there is actual attempts too. Every second of it is informative.
