Its a long story.
Just outside Orthanc, as he was getting ready to attack, Treebeard tripped on his shoelace and soon began an Ent domino effect, each Ent falling over and bringing another down with it. The last Ent opened a cage of Saruman's 'special' pets, Orcs bred with rats who had rabies, who scurried around and bit Saruman. Saruman then bit the Witch-King, the beloved ruler of Gonder. Both Treebeard and Saruman were held responsible, though the Ents still maintain that it was all Saruman's fault.
