Why is asbestos so dangerous?
user
Because it’s a special mineral that easily crumbles into fine fibers.  These fibers are small enough to pass through the lungs and lodge in the tissue there.  Normally this tissue builds up a shield, but the fibers disrupt this shield, and this causes damage.  Once the tissue is scarred, it’s more difficult for the body to breathe, which leads to inflammation and other problems.
