TIL: a site managers' poor attempt to unstuck a flatbed truck sent that truck rolling down a cliff where it blocked a railway tunnel entrance, just as an express train was barreling into the tunnel. 49 people died as the train hit the fallen truck, derailed, then hit the tunnel entrance head on.

Over the past few weeks, I've had multiple friends get mad at me for implying that their well-intentioned, pie in the sky efforts may be counterproductive thanks to unintended consequences.
