TheWoWDBIt's possible that the event of the tunnel collapsing is something only Dwarves will see. I did it on a Night Elf and the tunnel did not collapse.

Description
The presence of a fire elemental here in Coldridge is no small matter. That earthquake did more than just upset a bunch of troggs... it changed the world enough to tear a gash into the elemental plane. We should submit a report to Ironforge. You wouldn't be willing to take a trip, would ya? Don't worry, I've a feeling that you'll do just fine. Talk to Hands Springsprocket by the tunnel on the eastern edge of the valley. He'll point you in the right direction.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

It's probably another story related bug they won't fix, as of today the cave won't collapse even as dwarf. Ican only hope they will fix old conent, like this for a good immersion and nostalgia.
Seems to be fixed now. :)

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Ice and Fire
Soren did well to send you out on recon. That's some good information you have right there. Trouble is, this just adds more work for us to do. The trolls, confused as they are right now, still would like to kick the dwarves right out of Coldridge.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Follow that Gyro-Copter!
D-d-did you see that? How the whole cave just crumbled like that? I guess it's good that you got here when you did, and not a minute earlier. While this development makes my job of monitoring the cave entrance much easier, I imagine it makes it a lot harder for you to get to Kharanos.
