We’re releasing episodes from our mini failure library while we’re on production hiatus.This week’s Mini Failure is about Alexander Kielland Flotel. In 1980 the floating hotel (flotel) capsized, killing 123 people on board. This led to enhanced safety regulations for the deployment of lifeboats from platforms and vessels.Original Air Date: May 14, 2023Episode Sourceshttps://www.lifeinnorway.net/alexander-l-kielland-disaster/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_L._Kielland_(platform)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welding_defect#Lamellar_tearingWays to get in touch with usEmail - [email protected]Website - www.failurology.ca
