re: #290 The Vicious Babushka

There was recently a 150-car pile up on the I-94. 150 vehicles (including a number of jackknifed semis) but only 2 fatalities.

Yeah, I’d read about that; a pretty major multi-vehicle accident.

I still remember the Tenerife Disaster, even though I was a little kid when it happened - it was easily the top story that day (March 27th, 1977) and if I’m not mistaken, I think it’s still the worst disaster in commercial aviation history.

Two 747’s colliding on the runway? I can’t even imagine the carnage that must’ve been.
