A failed welding job, followed by a more expensive truckfuckling than usual:

F1 cars cost around $15 million though this is a Williams shitbox so maybe more like $5 million

Double emphasis on it being a passive device so they should be a-okay? Or is the CBP press release perhaps misleading?

X-rays are a passive, none-intrusive method of checking if you have a broken bone, because they don't involve a doctor taking a scalpel to you and wrenching your chest cavity apart.

You're still being irradiated.

Now, the Gamma radiation they took could be pretty much harmless, but there's no way to get an image like that without everything getting dosed.

The UK Maritime Accident Investigation Branch has just published a report into an incident last year that this thread might 'enjoy':

https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5d93631a40f0b65e5ec0dd35/2019-12-Priscilla.pdf

A coaster trundles through the Pentland Firth (the gap between the top of Scotland and the Orkney Islands), while the sole watchkeeper watches music videos on his phone (and quite possibly falls asleep), having switched the autopilot pilot from 'follow the pre-programmed safe route' mode to 'follow a fixed heading until told otherwise' mode as soon as he came on watch. The local coastguard and the local traffic control centres both call him up and warn him he's about to pile up on the rocks. He says 'yeah, I suppose I'd better change course' to the first warning, but doesn't actually carry out any action, and when he gets the second call, which paraphrases as 'if you don't turn left this instant you're going to crash, you doofus', he replies 'what, you say I should turn right? Im gonna turn right...'

Ship piles up on the rocks and suffers major hull damage. Lots of good OSHA material there - I didn't know it was now OK for small ships to have unmanned engine rooms and not carry a dedicated marine engineer if they're in coastal waters...instead they can have a dual-qualified officer who doubles as both part-time engineer and part-time watchkeeper. Which is what this guy was.

JFC, some truly staggering incompetence on display throughout.
