India’s Amer Fort in Jaipur hit by lightning bolt that kills at least 18 people. India will give compensation after 18 people were killed while taking storm selfies when a popular tourist attraction was hit by lightning. But 1 must question the reason behind compensation being given out. Cheers. ID: 2079837 · Reply Quote

Misplaced chair shuts down nuclear plant in Taiwan Surprisingly a real-life scenario and not a plotline from The Simpsons An investigation by the Association for Natural Energy pinpointed the cause: misplaced furniture. Staff working in the control room moved the chair to clean and, in the process, knocked the acrylic protective cover of a main steam isolation valve switch causing it to tilt, shift, and close, setting off a chain reaction that tripped the main steam turbine and stopped the reactor.
