I like knowing what I'm watching when I go in (and didn't hear any explanation of what it was at the beginning). What is a cascade failure? Was it just some kind of failure mode of the system that got triggered, which destroyed some expensive equipment?

A cascade failure is one where one fail directly causes multiple other fails. Each of those fails cause multiple more fails. So its a very quickly evolving sequence of many successive failures throughout the system. Its a good video that explains this concept very well.
