I beg to differ. This was the biggest environmental incident in the world but the Piper Alpha is the worst oil rig disaster. 167 men died in 20 mins.

[@ggexpeditions867]

Ye but how many animals died

[@Stallioniinyaa]

Fatility wise but the environmental impact was probably the worst that's ever happened.

[@grahambain9250]

Agreed 💯

[@renerusso3332]

TRUE

[@f_homo-s]

@@ggexpeditions867who cares? 120 people died. People are a lot more valuable than animals, and anyone who tries to dispute that fact is an idiot.

[@AizensChair]

all these people who are responsible for this are still filthy rich. what a pathetic justice system.

In the Gulf Shores/Baldwing Co. area, BP is hated. They sold, or shut-down every BP station in South Alabama after their negligence coated water and beaches of Alabama. The tourism and fisherie industry were greatly impacted leaving many in financial ruin: BP’s settlement was too little too late for those individuals.

“Florida is about a 9 hour drive from the Gulf of Mexico…” 9:00 hey man… Florida is ON the gulf. Look at a fucking map. 9 hour drive? Dude I live on the GULF COAST. Did an AI write your shit?🤣

No amount of rules, safeguards, guidelines...etc can prevent tragedies cause by human nature. History will alway repeat itself in one form or another

History will repeat again because cutting corners saves money

Cutting corners costs money. As an investor I know that, we do not cut corners.

The BP oil disaster - that servant Don Cheney, among others, knew that the well was going to blow and sold their stock in the company around just before it went public. Him and other volunteers, destined for their chosen destination, profited in this lifetime from the disaster, but thankfully will inherit their chosen inheritance. As they deemed to others, may it be deemed to them, but with mercy; because no one of us can be so cruel. By their own choosing they sold themselves, even by trying to sell others. True to their profession of being a ...red light worker.

Florida is ON the Gulf of Mexico.

Did you really say that Florida is a 9 hour drive from the Gulf of Mexico?

[@buildmotosykletist1987]

Yep and we're not alone in noticing that.

VERY WELL DONE

Pity the title is s lie. Seems America prioritised money over human life. Piper Alpha was 167 dead.

It wasn’t even close to being the biggest semi out there.

This is amazing! I’m going to shout it out

All the biggest disasters in the history, including Fukushima and even Chernobyl, have one cause in common. Money.

[@Jvjdfkgjfjfkcjcjcux]

That’s just incorrect

[@pluckybellhop66]

Fukushima was caused by an earthquake that was followed by a tsunami

[@buildmotosykletist1987]

Nope, it's human error.

Yeah, a classic failure by the doco maker. There are also a number of lies by omission. The classic tool of every doco maker. I think the classic lying by omission medal winner is 'Searching for Sugarman' but don't tell Rodriguez fans. Second would go to Attenborough.
