It’s always been this way. Been watching a lot of true disaster videos lately and it genuinely disturbs me how easily pretty so many of them could have been prevented by established rules and procedure present at the time.
The YouTube channels I’ve been liking lately include Plainly Difficult, Fascinating Horror, Brick Immortar, Disaster Breakdown, and last but not least Mentour Pilot!
Just seconding Plainly Difficult, and Mentour Pilot. Also, I think Kyle Hill’s series on nuclear “disasters” is pretty good. It’s called “Half-life Histories.”

Interesting, maybe I shouldn’t be surprised, humans haven’t changed much over the eons.
Any recommendations for true disaster videos? That sounds y up my alley.
