Many many things. Very loud music, cold/infections/viruses etc. Personally mine burst due to a ear infection/virus, because of fluid behind my ear building up. Its completely painless and nothing to worry about but there is a small amount of discharge fluid.

Though it is very difficult to cause rupturing of eardrum, physical impact, High frequency sounds, health issues, genetic defects are most probable causes.

Because ear drums take in vibrations and if it's busted there's nothing to take them in and turn them to sound.

How can you burst an eardrum?

Too much pressure can rupture an eardrum. For example, I ruptured my brother's eardrum many years ago with one of those pool noodles. We were fighting with them in the pool and I smacked him in the side of the head with it. The force of impact directly over his ear created enough pressure inside of his ear cavity to actually rupture his eardrum. Another thing that can rupture/burst an eardrum is simply sticking something that doesn't belong inside of your ear too deep, physically puncturing the eardrum. Although eardrums can burst, they can also heal. However, the older you get, the more difficult it becomes for your body to repair an eardrum.
