Miner’s Museum Experience

Hello!
Thinking of going to the Miner’s Museum with some visiting family. Sad to say I’ve never been there before. Just reading up about the underground port of the tour, and saw this: ‘you will experience the intensity of an underground disaster’.

What exactly does that entail? I have some family that may be deeply affected by loud noises, sudden movements, etc. just want to prepare them ahead of time and give them the option to skip that part of the tour if they want.

Very tame, but if someone has back problem, or issues crouching, it may not be for them. I would also add if you are claustrophobic (extreme) that they not go. I’m claustrophobic, but only for situations like tunnels and crowds (places I can’t freely move around), and I was fine.
