On today’s episode: we will be travelling to beautiful Corsica, and learning why people not from there think the locals are xenophobic, blood thirsty monsters; we’ll learn how when it comes to architecture and building quality, you can have things done cheap and fast but not safe; and you will hear the term “bleediest” used as an adjective

And if you had been listening on Patreon… you would learn about a few of the most debilitating, teeth-spitting, femur shattering moments in the history of European football; you would learn the mostly tragic tale of the most famous head butt in history; you would learn the unexpectedly crazy history of soccer’s favourite shoe brand; and we would discuss the kinds of things your brain can’t unsee, including the worst thing I’ve ever seen in my life, which just happened last week.

We’re back, and things are beginning to return to normal. Thank you for your support and patience. On that note, as you will notice right off the top, I've been quietly developing an unusual game idea based on an awkward conversation with a dog which is getting rave reviews from testers. It’s an odd game, based on an odd story, which you can learn all about on Kickstarter. It is my pleasure to introduce PEE PEE POO POO: The Game of Laughter, Smiles and Farts.


CLICK HERE TO SEE IT WITH YOUR OWN EYES



It’s been a passion project, bringing this to life, and with your help, its success means NO MORE DELAYED DOOMSDAY EPISODES.

I know it can feel weird to share. I made the game, and I still have trouble saying the name without having a reaction. But for an independent project like this to blow up, word-of-mouth is everything. Every share and mention genuinely helps more than you could imagine. Heading to our page and signing up to be notified when it starts (even if you’re not interested) helps just as much.

WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU?

During the First THREE DAYS, as a listener of the show:

• you get a copy of PEE PEE POO POO for $7 off (that’s a 20% savings)
• you will be thrown into a draw for a chance to win three Free Doomsday T-Shirts 
• you could also win one of three PEE PEE POO POO V.I.POO Tiers (a copy of the game, one of our T-Shirts, a paw-tographed framed photo of Eve, and a Limited Edition Golden Turd Card!

Spread the word, save the show, share the poo!

On today's very special "return-to-Africa" episode, all people wanted to do was get to work, but the weather got bad to the point where the road said "you shall not pass, your life is in danger". The train took a look at all this and said, "hold my beer”.

On today’s episode: you will learn how the location of today’s story sounds toasty and hot to the uninitiated, but is actually one of the wettest places on earth; we will describe a claustrophobic and unenviable situation somewhere between the roller-skating in the back of the truck stunt from Jackass combined with the trash compactor scene from Star Wars; and I will actually say that no one choo choo chooses to be in today’s kind of disaster, which I only call out early to ask for your forgiveness.

And if you were listening on Patreon: you would learn about the US military’s ambitions to turn its enemies into bee-coated, gay, diarrhea fanatics, and how they inspired Mikkos Cassadine’s aims of destroying the world in the 1980s; we’ll visit a place so rainy that you will have no choice but to assume I’m lying; and we’ll walk through a list of all the different, awful things that can happen to your spine.
Also, at the end of this episode, I’m going to announce the results of a naming contest we held for our hungry gorilla friend, and I will share the story behind it, which, fair warning, is extremely emotional.

People describe travel by rail as a romantic way to see the landscape. Well, I don’t know so much about that, but in this very special and intimate episode, a lot of people were brought closer together.

I wanted to shout out Joyce Mokou Kontcheu (ask how to pronounce) who sent me my very first fan mail from Africa! That’s a big deal for me. This was one of those rare occasions where a starter disaster perfectly sets the stage for a much worse secondary disaster. I call it a cascading infrastructure failure. She called it a careless disaster that could have been avoided with a little common sense. She truly hoped I would cover it, so yes, of course I did. Merci, Joyce.

And I didn’t have time to record a quick thing for our June Birthdays, so I wanted to shout out Charles Jewell and Kerry Ann Borthwick for another year around spinning around the sun in an otherwise cold and indifferent universe, wishing them a little birthday cheer, and thanks again to Hydra Corvi again for helping me with a little research on this one.

From here we’re back in my hometown just long enough to make a little fun of the World Cup before jetting off to beautiful Corsica to watch the beautiful game and have a high statical chance of getting very, very hurt. Spoiler, in the safety segment, I’m going to tell you what to do if not-only are you impaled on a pole, but suspended above the ground by it like a bug pinned to a wall. Good stuff.

On today’s episode: you’ll find out how cholera and typhoid-laced fart water led to the reinvention of one of the world’s cleverest and most innovative cities; you will find out why crapping on music could technically be considered a kind of self-care; and although you’re missing the context now, I’m going to advise you to potentially remove your fingernails at some point, and you might surprise yourself by agreeing

And if you were listening on Patreon… you would hear the beloved tale of a potentially made-up cow that got the jimmy legs and vaporized a city; you would visit the most literally and purposefully vomit-inducing statue ever erected; and you would learn the fascinating history of transportation-based toilets.

Today’s episode was supposed to be another minisode, but in the new-standing tradition, so much for that. It was also supposed to be bloodless, which it was, but it still managed to be incredibly disturbing and upsetting without it. I make that point that if we had dropped 800 lbs of blood on people, you would have been easier to get over.

You ever hear of the 2008 case of a man experiencing severe untreated psychosis, attacked and decapitating his seat mate on a Greyhound Bus with a hunting knife in Manitoba, Canada? I believe the Dave Matthews Poop Bus Disaster of 2004 is far worse.

I would want the members and families of the Dave Matthews band know I mean all this in good fun. Much better fun than the 120 people who ate 800 lbs of fudge from the sky on that August day. Again, good fun. I finish the episode with a few shoutouts. I also want to thank Hydra Corvi and Kerry-Ann Borthwick for helping me behind the scenes with a little inspiration. And as far as shout-outs go.

On the next episode, I will be announcing the results of our Gorilla Naming Contest, and the explanation should be heart warming as hell. I would have had this all in the can sooner, but my personal life spirals around me and I’ve been struggling for a bit. Tourniquets, same story - lost to time but not forgotten. They’re in the mail, this week, promise.

Special guests include: E. coli, Salmonella, Norovirus, Hepatitis, Giardia, and Cryptosporidium.

On today’s episode: you will find out why parts of Texas smell like money, and why that money smells unbreathably pungent and caustic; we will explore how there can come a point where calling something loud loses all meaning, and then your skin blows off; and we will learn about a disaster so catastrophic, that people who said “well, I’m glad that’s all over with” were treated to an encore.

And because you are listening on Patreon… you will hear about a river or two that defied convention by bursting into flames; you will learn about the time a German industrial site tried to fly into space because it’s standard operating procedures director was actually a potted plant wearing a tie; and you will find out how British Petroleum basically became the Beatles of oil and gas disasters.

They say everything’s bigger in Texas, and I believe it. You will too, after you understand the scale of today’s event and the resulting death toll. We’ll spend our time in Texas City, and I do make a point in the episode that Texas is a fine place, but if you had to pick a part of visit, Texas City might not be it. It’s certainly not for the faint of heart. Who would have thunk that the densest petrochemical infrastructure on Earth would make for a not-so-great picnic spot, but a great place to watch 4,000 pound ship anchors arc across the sky.

It is my genuine pleasure to return here (hey Texas). We have a lot of listeners there, and I look forward to returning again in the future. In fact, if you’re from the Lone Star State and have a favourite disaster in mind, please chime in. I’m sorry if I’m a little under the weather in this episode. I’m was a little under the weather while making it, so I apologize if I any ennui got in the pudding.

If it helps, the next episode will be bloodless and cheerier, but bloodless in a way that might actually make you wish for blood. You’ll just have to wait and see.

Google : 107fullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/the-kursk-submarine-disaster-of-2000-episode-106--71135315
On today’s episode: you will learn why the history of victory in human warfare favours how much you resemble your own anus; you will to understand how your brain actually craps itself worse than your bowels when confronted with something enormous approaches unseen from underwater; and if you ever had a particularly bad day at work and felt really underserved by your employers desire or ability to do anything about it, this episode is doing that thing where it points back-and-forth between you and itself and nodding strongly.

And if you were listening on Patreon… you would learn why the first recorded military submarine mission sounded like bad porno; you would see why life in a confined space can get you full-body duct taped to a chair with a gag in your mouth; and you would hear cautionary and sobering observations about the aromatic and claustrophobic life of a fellow listener who spent years in the silent service.

I’m going to have you imagining everything from what a Roman solider would have thought watching a tank shell remove your co-workers head, to what it feels like to be slowly pulled into the spinning blades of a submarine, to the experience of free-balling it from the sea floor to the surface in a pressure suit which is said to be one of the most frightening emergency procedures in the world.

I spend no small amount of time figuring out new and terrible ways for you to experience fear in a vehicle. There’s just something about going through a horror when you’re trapped in a moving conveyance that doesn’t obey or respond to your panic. I think a submarine is a perfect example, considering if you pull over and try to get out, everyone on board dies terribly. That said, it was my sincere pleasure to be able to bring this story to you today. It straddles the line between bad-day-at-work episodes and my-boss-sucks episodes.

On today’s episode: you will learn why the history of victory in human warfare favours how much you resemble your own anus; you will to understand how your brain actually craps itself worse than your bowels when confronted with something enormous approaches unseen from underwater; and if you ever had a particularly bad day at work and felt really underserved by your employers desire or ability to do anything about it, this episode is doing that thing where it points back-and-forth between you and itself and nodding strongly.

And if you were listening on Patreon… you would learn why the first recorded military submarine mission sounded like bad porno; you would see why life in a confined space can get you full-body duct taped to a chair with a gag in your mouth; and you would hear cautionary and sobering observations about the aromatic and claustrophobic life of a fellow listener who spent years in the silent service.

I’m going to have you imagining everything from what a Roman solider would have thought watching a tank shell remove your co-workers head, to what it feels like to be slowly pulled into the spinning blades of a submarine, to the experience of free-balling it from the sea floor to the surface in a pressure suit which is said to be one of the most frightening emergency procedures in the world.

I spend no small amount of time figuring out new and terrible ways for you to experience fear in a vehicle. There’s just something about going through a horror when you’re trapped in a moving conveyance that doesn’t obey or respond to your panic. I think a submarine is a perfect example, considering if you pull over and try to get out, everyone on board dies terribly. That said, it was my sincere pleasure to be able to bring this story to you today. It straddles the line between bad-day-at-work episodes and my-boss-sucks episodes.

On today’s episode: you will see how the simple act of going blabbity blah turned the most physically unimpressive animal on Earth into its most dangerous one; you’ll learn why I’m calling the scariest thing the sun will ever do to us – “Big Girl Summer”; and we’ll figure out why if today’s story ever repeats itself, we’ll all be discussing axes and hockey pads and squirrel recipes.

And if you were listening on Patreon… you would hear how the early telegraph basically worked like He-Man’s sword and transformed jackasses into a-holes; you would learn just how bad every planet in the solar system wants you dead, and how they’d do it; and you would hear how today’s story plus Frankenstein plus NYC con artists directly led to the creation of all modern science fiction.

Apparently, we’re experiencing a powerful solar storm as I type this, so this episode could not have come at a better time. I’ll calm you by saying no one dies in this episode – but today’s story covers an event at a time in history when people barely understood soap, and if and when it happens again in the modern age, we will all be scavenging the waste lands for non-perishable food and hockey pads. I was going to include a recipe for squirrel, but decided against it. 

I hope you guys like it. I promise the next episode will have all kinds of blood and limbs and horror. No one dies in today's story, but some people do get badly burned, a scientist gets metaphorically burned by history, and by the end of our story, the “hero” of our story will switch from visions of grandeur, to homicide, to retirement. Long story short, more than a few people will get screwed in this episode. Some literally, some figuratively.

On today’s episode:  you’ll hear about one of the deadliest and most destructive forces on the planet can play a kind of peekaboo and then grow 300 feet tall and make you foul yourself; you will learn what the actual deadliest animals in Australia are (and number one will surprise you); and you’ll learn how one species of tree evolved in a way that makes it want to die as dramatically as possible.

And if you were listening on Patreon… you would hear the story of how living dinosaurs defeated one of the world’s most experienced and battle-hardened armies; you would have a chance to meet the tallest and least flammable living thing on earth; and you would learn why arsonists are the stupidest, most selfish, and potentially even racist people you may ever meet, and how to disable one if you ever do.

I wasn’t lying when I say I have a soft spot in my heart for Australia. In an alternate timeline, you are listening to this podcast with a slightly adopted Australian accent because I live there happily – and avoiding bushfires seemingly semi-annually. Today, Australians make up a big chunk of my listenership and I want to send more love your way. Step one was this love letter to their kiln-dried country.

As a Canadian, we enjoy the fear in foreigner’s eyes when confronted face-to-face with a Canadian Goose, so as a fellow Commonwealth country, Australia feels like it’s wallpapered in people’s eight-legged, claw and toothed, venom spitting fears from airport to autopsy. It is my honour and delight to introduce non-native listeners to a whole new area of fear they’ve never even considered.

And in spite of all the biting and kicking and venom and fire and hooves and claws and the laundry list of things that will go out of their way to make you stop taking pictures, and breaths, I still love to visit one day. If I never get to meet you, just know that I wish I could, and when tourists arrive asking about Drop Bears, be gentle with them.

On today’s episode: we’ll visit a postcard perfect country that’s ridiculously beautiful from top to bottom, but on a map looks vaguely testicular and chewed; you will walk through the history of cheese before sampling a platter of the world’s most nauseating varieties; and not to spoil anything, but today’s story is going to spiral into a kind of three-fer episode of flame-fueled claustrophobia.

And if you were listening on Patreon… you would hear a short story of how a spiky Asian football turned my stomach inside out; you would learn how we’ve been preprogrammed by invisible senses that tell us everything from how many fingers we have to how much vomit you might need to project; and you would hear the story of the gigantic wheel of cheese that haunted the White House for years.

We start this episode talking about some of the funkiest edibles to be found anywhere in the world, and recapping how many of them have killed people on this show. I’ll be the first to admit we use a pretty broad definition of “edible”, but the food product headlining today’s story is as traditional and straight-forward as food gets. We’re going to spend some time with a cheese called Brunost that is so sweet and giddyingly bad for you, many people think of it as more of a kid’s treat.

You’ve probably never had the chance to try it yourself, but one of my best friends in public school was from Norway, and we regularly used to steal it from his dad, and I admit that this may have played a small part in his parent’s divorce, so for that, I am sorry.

Now, I don’t know what your relationship with cheese is like, but I love the stuff. I don’t care if it’s from the UK or Scandinavia or India or where it comes from. As long as it came out of a cow and didn’t AIR BNB larva or age inside a skull or whatever separates “everyday cheeses” from “emotionally demanding cheeses”. I’m not saying I grew up with posters of cheese wheels all over my bedroom, I’m just not saying I didn’t is all. The worst thing I’ve ever seen it do is cause my old friend Larry to fart so hard he ended up in the hospital – he was fine, have no fear. I’m sure we’ve all burned our mouths on pizza cheese before, but the experience of today’s episode is something else.

On today’s episode:  you will learn why Frankenstein was more graceful on stolen corpse feet than you are in snowboots; you’ll learn why diagonal tunnels basically act as nature’s secret logistical flamethrowers; and we’ll see how a $40 appliance permanently derailed a $30-million-a-year alpine operation and changed European history.

And if you were listening on Patreon… you would hear about the industrial accident that unearthed the entire history of humanity in Western Europe; you would hear about all the terrible things that happened to the last King of England to die in battle before and after he actually died (spoiler: most of the injuries were after); and if you don’t know the story, we’ll tell you how Dionysus gave Damocles PTSD.

This is one of those bad day at work/bad holiday episodes where everything that could have helped along the way was too expensive, and the one thing that was supposed to help someone was so cheap, it killed almost everybody. We’re going to learn a lot about just how weird and active fire can be. Most people picture fire like this: Flames burn, heat rises, you step back. That’s fine, if it’s burning in a free and open space. You have no chance of being suffocated by it, and it’s easy to play keep away with. In an open-air fire, heat rises and disperses, oxygen flows in from every which way, and the smoke just carries away on the breeze. In today’s fire, not so much. We will be facing less of a camp fire and more of a blow torch.

This episode also marks our return to the European Alps, where we will discover an entirely different way of being afraid of mountains, so that’s fun! And as long as we’re learning to be afraid of new things, we’re also going to look at how everything around us, from the things we sit on to the clothes we wear, all break down into vaporized toxins that will absolutely make for not so good think before shutting you off for good. This is also an episode that extends our philosophy that any “vehicle” could double as a coffin, and funicular is a vehicle we’ve never explored before.

Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/doomsday-history-s-most-dangerous-podcast--4866335/support.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/69963290Wed, 11 Feb 2026 05:00:06 +0000Brad ChomaIf you think the worst thing that can happen while skiing is trying not to scream while the ski patrol figures out why your leg’s bending that way, we have a lot to teach you about skiing. Spoiler: mountains can cook and kill people. Don’t say this...
On today’s episode:  you will learn why Frankenstein was more graceful on stolen corpse feet than you are in snowboots; you’ll learn why diagonal tunnels basically act as nature’s secret logistical flamethrowers; and we’ll see how a $40 appliance permanently derailed a $30-million-a-year alpine operation and changed European history.

And if you were listening on Patreon… you would hear about the industrial accident that unearthed the entire history of humanity in Western Europe; you would hear about all the terrible things that happened to the last King of England to die in battle before and after he actually died (spoiler: most of the injuries were after); and if you don’t know the story, we’ll tell you how Dionysus gave Damocles PTSD.

This is one of those bad day at work/bad holiday episodes where everything that could have helped along the way was too expensive, and the one thing that was supposed to help someone was so cheap, it killed almost everybody. We’re going to learn a lot about just how weird and active fire can be. Most people picture fire like this: Flames burn, heat rises, you step back. That’s fine, if it’s burning in a free and open space. You have no chance of being suffocated by it, and it’s easy to play keep away with. In an open-air fire, heat rises and disperses, oxygen flows in from every which way, and the smoke just carries away on the breeze. In today’s fire, not so much. We will be facing less of a camp fire and more of a blow torch.

This episode also marks our return to the European Alps, where we will discover an entirely different way of being afraid of mountains, so that’s fun! And as long as we’re learning to be afraid of new things, we’re also going to look at how everything around us, from the things we sit on to the clothes we wear, all break down into vaporized toxins that will absolutely make for not so good think before shutting you off for good. This is also an episode that extends our philosophy that any “vehicle” could double as a coffin, and funicular is a vehicle we’ve never explored before.

On today’s episode:  you will see how miners and prostitutes used to travel in style in the far sub-Arctic North; you will hear about what may be the clumsiest bad-day-at-work episode we’ve ever discussed; and you will find out at what point an incinerating cow flips from piquing your appetite to inducing eye-watering vomit.

And if you had been listening on Patreon… you would learn about the most unusual haunted home ever built in the history of human habitation; you would hear how today’s story could be considered more punishing than the Uruguayan Rugby Disaster, the Greeley Arctic Disaster and the Donner Party; and you would hear the debunked tale of a man in full diving gear who became part of a forest fire.

I love getting to visit new and exotic places around the globe, but being chained to an office chair ten feet from where I sleep means these stories can be as close as I’ll ever get  to visit it, in the theatre of my mind, and I’m unendingly appreciative to listeners who provide the suggestions that let me do that.

The Yukon River sits about 4,400 km (about 2,735 miles) from my door, so it’s a little far, but this is our first trip to the Yukon, and I couldn’t have been more excited by it. This absolutely bug-nuts story came courtesy of listener, Jonny Wilkie, a resident, and he inspired me to want to incorporate more minisodes from story suggestions you’ve all supplied that didn’t have enough beef on them to inflate into a full episode, but are just too damn good not to want to share. Also, this came out about 30% shorter than a regular episode, so they’re not-so-minisodes. No matter.

I was going to add a cooking segment to today’s story, but opted for the quick and benign details of an open-air BBQ that flambés metric tons of food a lot quicker and grosser than you’d think. I settled for the details of the worst nature hike anyone’s ever attempted on this show. And that includes the students of Wolf Creek and the Uruguayan Rugby Team. Gun safety will play an important role in our story too. I will make the point how a single bullet can cause a lot of harm, and then we’re going to back it up, mark my words.

On today’s very special milestone 100th Episode:  you’ll hear about my school trip to a French strip club; you would learn about a man of God who unintentionally brought a flock of young faithful to meet him; and you will see why I believe riding through a tornado would be somehow less frightening and uncomfortable than the rigors of today’s story.

And if you had been listening on Patreon… you would learn how a single school trip shaped my entire world view while listening to Chaka Khan; you would hear about some of the worst ways people have finished school trips unexpectedly early; you would learn about the fake US president who died from the largest landslide ever recorded in human history; and you would learn how today’s tragedy could have prevented by simple diarrhea.

I mentioned the Oregon Trail earlier in this episode, specifically the Oregon Trail video game from the 80s. It was made as a learning tool about decision making and resource management, but it also teaches that you can do everything right and still die. It’s an important thing to remember, and beyond that, this episode taught me how one very young brush with death became the moment this show was born – I just didn’t know it yet. It’s a long story, and I preserved it for Patreon. For them, I also finished the episode with Chaka Khan’s “I Feel For You”, to let you judge just how much or how little it feels like the jam you would have wanted to die to.

I mention two things at the end of the episode. First I wanted to call out Kala and her husband Ben for kind of exercisming things at Funeral Kazoo and looking to do some cool stuff for future of the show. Ben, being a native of the American Northwest, yelled in my face that he wanted an episode from this land we've never visited. I said, Ben, I'll get you your dead children, watch me go – and here we are. I'm never happy when a story involves the death of children, but almost half of the would-be victims bailed with cramps and gas and all sorts of things and unknowingly saved themselves from making today's story worse. The second thing was that I would post a very short video on Patreon for paid and unpaid members to hopefully see grief in a different way. I'm going to encourage you to stop thinking of your life as a straight-line journey from cradle to grave and more like a tree, spinning around the sun every year, growing and maturing and changing from the inside-out. I want you to think about grief like a roadblock you keep having to hurdle, that gets just a little bit easier with every try. Head over the Patreon.com/funeralkazoo, sign up as a free member and give it a try. If it helps, I’m overjoyed.

Celebrity guest stars include listener of the show and snowcat un-enthusiast, Jeremy Renner; 33rd president of the United States, Harry Truman; local area moron and head wound collector, Homer Simpson; and 80s dance floor filler, Chaka Khan.

You ever watch a big, blockbuster sci-fi action adventure movie that turns out to be so bereft of technical and scientific merit or accuracy that you almost start to like it? Me neither!

On today’s very special Christmas Disaster Moviesode: we’ll start by joining the shortest, worst, and probably my personal favourite business presentation of all time; we’ll learn how the US government tried to spite it’s enemies by giving the planet the Alderaan treatment, twice; and we’ll meet the man tasked with fixing all this, and saving Earth, and everything on it, but who doesn’t even know how to put on a coat.

Welcome to the return of the disaster moviesode! We haven’t done this in a while, but our last episode on Michael Bay's 1998 shlocktacular Armageddon was so popular, there was no way we weren’t coming back to this. I promise if I win the lotto over the holidays, I’ll make moviesodes a regular thing thing.

Today’s story, currently sits at 34% on Rotten Tomatoes. This is a film that critics called “a modestly fun exercise in disappointment”, and “as aggressively loud and obnoxious as it is tiresomely stupid”. It's 2 hours and 15 minutes, which I sat through so you didn’t have to… it is my distinct pleasure to bring you this very special presentation, the 2003 Aaron Eckhart disaster masterpiece, The Core, made free to one-and-all here on Patreon as a thank you for another great year.

Grab your popcorn and your safety glasses and kick your kids out of the room because otherwise this is going to make them stupider, and let’s begin.

On today’s episode: we’ll see how the former digs of axe murderers and corpse thieves and child labour body pits became one of the most beautiful green spaces in London; we’ll learn why early ice skates were only marginally more comfortable than being eaten by wolves; and we’ll learn why Victorian fashion doubled as de facto funeral attire with the addition of simple water.

And because you are listening on Patreon… you’ll hear about how early animal captivity turned one man into a bloody Stretch Armstrong doll, complete with blood spray effects; you will learn how the Dutch invented a new high-speed form of knife-fighting and ice skates for horses; and you will hear how London had a unique form of Winter Fair that only closed up for the year once people started drowning.

There’s no risk of drowning in feces or burning to death in today’s story, so in a way this is our nicest visit to Victorian England we’ve ever attempted – you’re welcome. But that said, we’re going to see how everything from your hobbies to your clothes wanted you dead. And I don’t want to spoil anything, but by the time we’re finishing up, you’re going to wonder just how often the same thing can happen again and again. I don’t want your takeaway to be fear, I want it to be hope and empowerment, acknowledging even the most frightening situations are not guaranteed death sentences. As one of my favourite listeners says, “you’re not dead till you’re warm and dead”.

This is our last normal episode of the year. A year that will have brought you more than 934 minutes of content and laid 23,589 corpses at your feet. Not bad if I do say so myself. The next episode will be our Christmas disaster movies ode, and for you guys I’m turning it into a video!

On today’s episode: we’ll see how the former digs of axe murderers and corpse thieves and child labour body pits became one of the most beautiful green spaces in London; we’ll learn why early ice skates were only marginally more comfortable than being eaten by wolves; and we’ll learn why Victorian fashion doubled as de facto funeral attire with the addition of simple water.

And because you are listening on Patreon… you’ll hear about how early animal captivity turned one man into a bloody Stretch Armstrong doll, complete with blood spray effects; you will learn how the Dutch invented a new high-speed form of knife-fighting and ice skates for horses; and you will hear how London had a unique form of Winter Fair that only closed up for the year once people started drowning.

There’s no risk of drowning in feces or burning to death in today’s story, so in a way this is our nicest visit to Victorian England we’ve ever attempted – you’re welcome. But that said, we’re going to see how everything from your hobbies to your clothes wanted you dead. And I don’t want to spoil anything, but by the time we’re finishing up, you’re going to wonder just how often the same thing can happen again and again. I don’t want your takeaway to be fear, I want it to be hope and empowerment, acknowledging even the most frightening situations are not guaranteed death sentences. As one of my favourite listeners says, “you’re not dead till you’re warm and dead”.

This is our last normal episode of the year. A year that will have brought you more than 934 minutes of content and laid 23,589 corpses at your feet. Not bad if I do say so myself. The next episode will be our Christmas disaster movies ode, and for you guys I’m turning it into a video!

On today’s episode: You’ll learn about the most boat-hungry lakes anywhere in the world; you’ll see why you would rather be beaten half-to-death in the face with a bat than visit the site of today story; and you’ll find out how a cherished keepsake from our tale was recovered by a nightmarish bright orange, alien-shaped robot monster made out of airplane-grade aluminum.

And because you are listening on Patreon… you will figure out if flat-earthers are just the dumbest people in the world or the dumbest people in history; you will get to walk through the deadliest things to ever happen on the Greatest Lake system in the world; and you will hear a sode inside a sode about a storm from 1913 so powerful than when they needed a name they settled on “Great”.

We can only barely understand how frightening today’s story must have been for the men who were lost and the families they left behind. I feel a real responsibility to tell their stories with accuracy and respect knowing there are real people out there connected to the story and still wounded by it. That said, outside of calling the ship the Eddy Fitz one time, and then the way I give description to the indescribable physical hell you’d experience if you grabbed a snorkel and tried to visit the site of the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald, I think maintained a definite air of respect during this episode. You’d be honestly surprised at how many people were so deeply touched and effected by the event. Sorry for sounding so gloomy at the end, but sometimes I get bummed out. Not as bummed as the families of those lost on Gitchi Goomie mind you.

With all that said, there are only two more episodes in the year, but they are really something. We’ll be having our least nauseating visit to Victorian England in search of outdoor entertainment. And the last episode is our return to the Disaster Moviesode format by popular demand. The last time we did one, it was the 1998 Michael Bay schlocktacular “Armageddon” – a movie so bereft of sense or scientific consideration, they used it at NASA as a test to see how many things you could find wrong with it. Well, this time, we have a film so preposterous, it makes Armageddon look misunderstood. And it contains within it’s 2 hours and 15 minute running time almost every type of disaster, except ironically, asteroids. It's the 2003 Aaron Eckhart movie, “The Core”, and I know you’re going to like it. I saw it in the theatre, and I certainly didn’t.

On today’s episode: you’ll find out just how badly ancient China wanted nothing to do with you; you’ll learn about an explosion so large, people miles away had to clear limbs and genitals from their rooves; and you would hear about how at the time, ancient disasters were believed to be Heaven’s way of saying your Government sucked.

And if you were listening on Patreon… you would hear about how people were killed in the early development of explosives, including those for whom there wasn’t enough left to put a thermometer in; you would hear about the time San Francisco tried to use dynamite to fight fires, and how that didn’t go as well as you’d think; and you would hear as I climb upon my pulpit and deliver unto you a sermon on blasphemy and the special place in hell reserved for insurance adjusters.

As one supporter who already heard this on Patreon said – "everybody Wanggongchang tonight!"

Jesus himself will make a quick cameo in this story, and he will explain how all sins are forgivable – except for the blasphemous use of his Dad’s name by insurance adjusters, and how there’s a toasty level of hell that awaits them all. Apologies in advance if you work in insurance, but it’s better to find out now.

The last time we visited China, we watched a sideways rocket launch that performed an incomplete orbit over the countryside before landing nose first onto its own launch centre 22 seconds later. Those were the good old days compared to today’s story, which is much older, and much more aggressive. It won’t be as gory of course, but the body count will be much more egregious. In trying to figure out this story’s rightful place in history, I had to start comparing it to meteors and super volcanoes and atomic bombs. Not to spoil anything, but this is one of the more profound disasters we’ve ever covered, and the cause was I believe, something so innocuous and dumb, I’ve done it to my cat by accident before.

Back when we did the Sknyliv Airshow Disaster episode, I had grave concerns about her aggressively violent and gory it was because. If you’ll remember, during the air show, a Ukrainian fighter jet the size of a medium sized store impacted the ground, skidding through a run of barbed wire, which then hooked on the fuselage and was dragged and raked across a crowd. In retrospect, that was quaint compared to the totality of horror visited upon the people of today’s story.

I remind you, the point of this show is not simply to disgust and horrify people. It’s to educate and make them safer. It just happens that the best way to do so is to occasionally horrify, and this episode covers that in spades. This was one of the first stories I wrote, but I shelved it because I thought it would drive people away with how gratuitously awful it was. Well, we’re all here toady and filtering it through the lens of a Halloween episode, you’ll finally hear it today.

On today’s episode: you’ll hear about the one part of your body I want you to consider more worthy of fiddling with than your genitals; if you’re a stickler for building codes, we’re going to take you on a beautiful, potentially one-way hike to see some shoddy-ass worksmanship; and we’ll see what makes helicopter rescues as frightening as whatever you did to earn one in the first place.

And if you were listening on Patreon… I would use tales of sharks and octopuses and meth and sex toys to try and make today’s location more appealing; you would meet the surviving inductees to the No-Parachute Hall of Fame; and you would find out how the greatest construction disaster in US history inspired my idea for an OSHA Violation Ouija Board Game.

In this episode, so you know, I was going to start by saying we have a story you’re going to fall head over heels for, but that felt like the most unintentionally disrespectful thing I’ve ever said. I’m also going to teach you the reassuring paleontological roots of why you laugh at this show.

It is my unique pleasure to be able to take us all back to Oceana on today’s episode. I make a point about how little attention is paid to this part of the world outside of South East Asia. Actually, I make a few points about it, as I’ve done in the past as well. This is, sadly, one of those episodes were young people will die terribly, and frighteningly, but it’s also one of those stories that offers two things. First, a silver lining and legacy of change and safety, sure – but second, a chance to really get your torches and knives out for a government that dropped a ball and then walked behind it kicking it the whole way. I know a lot of listeners get a kind of malicious satisfaction or bureaucraschadenfreude when people in positions of responsibility for our stories get their heads removed. You’ll just have to wait and see.

And because we’re now into October and the Halloween Season, I will be creating a masterpiece of horror and gore for our next episode. This is one I originally started writing all the way back in 2016 (yes, it took four years to get this show rolling). I shelved it though. Too violent. Too many limbs. Well, five years in, you’ve all proven how hard it is to scare you off, so from the annals of history comes our most frightening episode ever. Maybe. It’s relative I suppose.

On this episode: we’ll take off on one of the least enviable flights in history – which is saying a lot; we’ll learn just what staggeringly awful places hunger can take an underfed mind even when the only menu option is freeze-dried human buttock; and we’ll end up with one of the most excruciating and difficult mountain hikes ever conducted, wearing little more than a tennis outfit.

And if you were listening on Patreon… you would see which popular sport tops the list for most spinal and testicular injuries; you’d hear every mouth-watering detail of the most filling and calorically-dense item on any menu, anywhere in the world; and you would learn how the survivor of a lifeboat full of man-on-man nom nom inspired one of the greatest pieces of American literature ever scribed.

This episode was created as a thank you for a special listener who asked to remain nameless and over extended themselves to help me out of a jam. Technically, all my episodes are thank you episodes for the people who help support the show, and a gift to every casual listener who’s ever had to treat a goring wound, or a flaming oil burn, or patch a cartoonish hole burnt through them by volcanic projectiles.

I make a point in this episode that one of the last times we visited South America together, we got irradiated, and how difficult it is to replace an entire audience after you accidentally murder the last one. It’s my way of saying thank you for listening, and for today’s special listener – 50-60 hours of painstaking work is maybe the best way I know how to say thank you and show the depth of my appreciation.

I’ve heard people describe this tale as extraordinary, but that’s not nearly a good enough word to explain what happened. You have any idea how deep you have to dig to refuse to surrender in spite of all this and having the whole world seemingly abandoned you? And even more than that, can you understand how profound the details of your story have to be to completely overshadow make people forget about all the cannibalism?

On this episode: we’re doing another one-of-a-kind episode here, and I’ll explain the rules as get into it, but for all those listeners who love our more unhygienic content, have we got a treat for you. We’re talking about the only consumer product you can blow out your nose while friends and strangers cheer you on; we’ll discuss more context and uses for plop and manure than you could shake a feces coated stick at; and we’ll see why the only thing you can’t kill about the British in countless, ghoulish ways, is their spirit

And if you were listening on Patreon… only one extra segment, but it’ll definitely be different. I’ll be providing some Dodge Caravan math, but I’ll be belching the whole thing for you on a dare from my family

If you are turned off by the mention of faces, this may not be the episode for you. This episode travels all over 1800s Britain, and this is not our first trip to the scabbed over, feces encrusted manure factory that was Victorian England. I am on record as saying they are our grossest episodes, by far, in my opinion. This one may be the worst. I mean, we did one where people were showered in the gory remains of a dead horse that spent the last three weeks cooking in the sun until it randomly popped on some lady in a giant crinoline dress like she was catching hot soup, and she’s all, “not this again”. I owe a debt of thanks to the Ye Olde Crime Podcast for clueing me in to just how no soap, no toothpaste, no germ theory it got. 

It is my strange privilege to bring you this one-of-a-kind first in the history of podcasting: a SIPPING Game, where with every mention of “human filth” in all it’s iterations and sources, you take a sip.

With all due respect, you should feel free to skip a few. I think we mention feces alone 29 times. This might not be for everyone, but for those of you who do, I say hats off, because you can barf into them in an emergency. I’m always watching out for you.

The rule of thumb is your liver can tackle about one full size drink an hour, and then you drink water. Provided you follow this precaution, you’ll still die if you sip every time. Feel free to cheat. I encourage it.  Do not hurt yourselves. In fact, drop your car keys in your toilet tank before you even hit play. And have a secondary or backup human on standby to watch you listen and make sure you don’t drink yourself into a neurological disorder.

The episode is a fun one, and I hope you enjoy. Mark yourself safe after.

Back in 1938, to his creators, Kansas represented the humble origins and strong ethics we associate with the Superman we know today. They believed that no other State would have produced a character that more strongly embodying the traditional values of truth, justice, and the American way. But that was 1938, and we loved and welcomed him, and a lot has changed since then. In this short bonus piece, we explore the thought exercise: what would happen if his rocket approached Earth In 2025. It's way more likely, almost crucially logical that we might view him as a possible alien-combatant from the Planet Krypton who entered the United States illegally. We'll explore in about three minutes time. 

If you've ever been curious about our Patreon, I made a quick video walking through the benefits, your contribution, and a quick scroll through they layout and experience to keep you from being overwhelmed. It's a short pitch, but it's heart felt.

Welcome to the Funeral Kazoo Patreon: Hope you Survive the Experience

I also made a post directed at people who may be intimidated by some expectation that they have to be some tap dancing extrovert to participate. Nothing could be farther from the truth. 

PSA To The Quiet Ones. The Introverts. My Kindred Fraternity.

On today’s episode: we’ll see what it feels like to survive something that peeled through six inch steel plates like taffy; in our safety segment, you’ll hear the first use of the term “enriddlement”; and before we’re done we’ll boldly go where Starships sometimes explode.

And if you were listening on Patreon, you would learn about a 2-million ton aircraft carrier made out of ice; you would hear the story of the early kamikaze pilot who caused hands down the most bizarre death in Australian Naval history; and you would learn how close we came to building the most unfathomably irresponsible and apocalyptic doomsday weapon ever conceived.

I’ve wanted to do this episode for some time, and there is a very special surprise for Star Trek fans closer to the end, but not before we explore the lives and fates of every vessel over a span of about 500 years to carry the name Enterprise. No big whoop.

If you find yourself asking, Star Trek? Why not Star Wars. Well, for one, the only “disasters” in Star Wars were the repeated explosions of the Death Star, but those were actually “acts of terrorism” – at least from the point of view of the victims of the explosions. The Death Stars were attacked in 1977 and 1983 in the same way the Twin Towers of the World Trade Centre in New York City were attacked in 1993 and 2001. Both were ultimately destroyed by a small ragtag force of self-appointed rebels, each seeing themselves in a David role against an evil Goliath, each claiming victory by blowing up the bad guy’s biggest piece of real estate, and both in a strategic aerial attack. So to recap, Star Wars always inevitably leads to offensive mixed metaphors that upset people unnecessarily.

We’ve seen an awful lot of $@!# across time and space and it’s only natural that you would have questions – so here is your chance hear them answered. Maybe learn something a little gross, maybe a little interesting. This is my chance to publicly answer some of the friendly, odd and occasionally gross questions that feed in through our various social media channels. 

I really wanted to get actual content to you ASAP after some recent tomfoolery with my health, and a Mailbag fit the bill nicely as a way to tide you over before the next full length episode.

On this episode: I will answer which of the Final Destination deaths would be my personal preference and why; I’ll explain if I’d rather ride out the apocalypse in an on-going Civil War or a Zombie Outbreak scenario – the answer may surprise you; and I’m going to definitively answer the question “will there be a new disaster moviesode, and if so, which one”. I’ll even share my concept for a disaster screenplay so bold, the name is in all caps with an exclamation mark.

I love answering your weird and bizarre questions. I wouldn’t ask for them at the end of each episode if I didn’t. If you’re curious to hear my take on things rattling around upstairs, I'm already collecting questions for a 10th in the future so share away if you'd like to hear your thoughts expounded upon at length. Feel free to holler. You can reach out on twitter, instagram and facebook as DoomsdayPodcast, or fire an email to doomsdaypod@gmail.com

We’ve seen an awful lot of $@!# across time and space and it’s only natural that you would have questions – so here is your chance hear them...
We’ve seen an awful lot of $@!# across time and space and it’s only natural that you would have questions – so here is your chance hear them answered. Maybe learn something a little gross, maybe a little interesting. This is my chance to publicly answer some of the friendly, odd and occasionally gross questions that feed in through our various social media channels. 

I really wanted to get actual content to you ASAP after some recent tomfoolery with my health, and a Mailbag fit the bill nicely as a way to tide you over before the next full length episode.

On this episode: I will answer which of the Final Destination deaths would be my personal preference and why; I’ll explain if I’d rather ride out the apocalypse in an on-going Civil War or a Zombie Outbreak scenario – the answer may surprise you; and I’m going to definitively answer the question “will there be a new disaster moviesode, and if so, which one”. I’ll even share my concept for a disaster screenplay so bold, the name is in all caps with an exclamation mark.

I love answering your weird and bizarre questions. I wouldn’t ask for them at the end of each episode if I didn’t. If you’re curious to hear my take on things rattling around upstairs, I'm already collecting questions for a 10th in the future so share away if you'd like to hear your thoughts expounded upon at length. Feel free to holler. You can reach out on twitter, instagram and facebook as DoomsdayPodcast, or fire an email to doomsdaypod@gmail.com

All our older episodes can be found wherever you found this one, and while you’re there, please leave us a review. And tell your friends.

On today’s episode: we’re going to take a look at what happens when you’re visited by a storm so powerful, they invent a new scale just to define it; we’ll see what it feels like to have your house reduced to the consistency of straw and blown away in what many call the most frightening thing that can happen to you in your lifetime; and we will learn to what degree a cow can become turned inside out and forcefully eject its organs.

And because you’re listening on Patreon, you would find out how badly we’d react if Superman’s escape pod approached Earth in 2025; you’d learn about the absolute physics-defying insanity left in the wake of our planets winds; you’d find out how bad tornado warnings were when you weren’t allowed to use the word tornado by law; you would learn the entire process of folding lungs from the inside out to right side in and how to successfully re-insert them; and we would talk about how your bad day at work doesn’t compare to 9/11 dogs.

I have to say, we’ve done some pretty sick things on this show, but very few in recent memory begin to touch on our poor bovine reassembly section. I edited it while eating, against my own cardinal rule. But rules, like thoraxes, are meant to be broken. To help make the point, this is also the first and only weather-related disaster we’ve ever done where we didn’t make fun of meteorologists. Furthermore, in spite of everything you’re about to hear, this disaster didn’t have the kind of death toll you maybe associate with our stories. Its shocking. Admittedly not as shocking as what I’m going to tell you about lungs, but that’s all part of what makes it all so special.

I also want to thank my listeners who’ve already contributed to our Doomsday Dodge Caravan Mobile Studio & Command Centre Fundraiser to replace the spite car, which, sadly, exploded spectacularly. As a result, we are working towards the purchase of a new/older Dodge Caravan. It’s kind of on brand for the show. If you have a buck and want to help the cause, you can visit

buymeacoffee.com/doomsday.

As part of the fundraiser, my daughter will be animating the death of the highest donator as a bonus. You can find out more on our socials.

On today’s episode: we’re visiting an American institution, recognized around the world for it’s bizarre duality as a magnet for cartoonish levels of violence (for an all-day breakfast place) – and its role as America’s most well-respected king of disaster logistics.

And if you were listening on Patreon: I would specifically teach you how to incapacitate an opponent and pull their still-beating heart out of their chest like you're Mola Ram from Temple of Doom. I am not kidding. It won’t be as easy as it sounds, so we’ll have to baby step our way through it, and when we are done, just knowing you have that knowledge is going to give you a kind of confidence and strut you’ve never felt before – so I am sorry, and you are welcome. 

On that note, two things: I’m almost jealous of those of you from other countries who’ve never heard the tales of the Waffle House. And I’m going to continue this minisode in the future with a sequel exploring an unexpected way my life was profoundly changed during the making of this show. It involves secrets and intrigue and DNA and it'll be a tale more personal and private than I’ve ever shared, but that will only be for my Patreons. In the meantime, I do hope you enjoy this minisode, and maybe even feel a little safer for it. Part one starts now.

On today’s episode: why the tourist bureau for today’s story drink so much; how the people in today’s episode work with equipment that would rattle an melt your skull off and sometimes want to cry and eat each other; and why the phrase “well, I’m glad that’s all over” is rarely misapplied this badly.

And because you are listening to this as a Patreon supporter, you get to enjoy an additional 10 minutes where we discuss: the hodge podge of brutalized bones and missing appendages that have sailed over the Falls; you’d hear about the increasingly ill-conceived and sketchy reasons people have tried their luck over the Falls on purpose; you would hear the tales of two waterways widely described as “inhospitable to human survival; and you would learn about the only unintentional subaquatic river trolley in the world.

Niagara Falls has always been a magnet for honeymooners, daredevils, stunt performers and industrialists, but there is no place more ready to delete you from your travel itinerary in so many permanent and awful ways. It’s also been a magnet for nature-inspired calamity. This is our second episode from this exotic location, and I could do an entire episode on just the daredevils alone. I really wanted to record this episode at Niagara Falls, but I also wanted to get it out in the first half of 2025, so no dice. That said, you can’t do an episode about Niagara Falls without talking about the numbers of people who “take that vertical swim” on purpose.

If you or someone you know sounds like they’d like to visit the Falls so-to-speak, please don't hesitate to reach out. There are people ready to help.

In Canada, Talk Suicide Canada at 1-833-456-4566 (Available 24/7) or text 45645, or visit www.crisisservicescanada.ca. For youth and young adults, there is also Kids Help Phone at 1-800-668-6868 or text CONNECT to 686868.

Obviously, this kind of thing that can be hard to talk about, but this is a show filled with things that can be hard to listen to. You’re already brave. Use that bravery to pick up a phone and please take care of yourself.

This is episode is a staunch reminder of my desire to make sure every episode surprises and delights. A lighthouse? It’s not the strangest place we’ve visited, but it’s certainly unexpected. It also checks a lot of boxes for being largely unheard of, bizarre, and forgotten. The Hawaiian experience back in 1946 overwhelmed the public’s mind, and no one had time for a building built strong enough to withstand artillery exploding at the touch of mere water. It also hold’s a distinction for being a place where people regularly lose it – and we did an episode about an asylum that caught on fire, so that’s saying a lot.

On today’s episode: we will discuss how some of the richest men in America created a boiling, black mountain of crap as powerful as a small nuclear blast; we will – for only the second time in the show’s history, describe a disaster made worse by a liberal and unexpected application of barbed wire; and we’ll find out why sometimes, mass graves are just better.

And if you were listening to this as a Patreon supporter, you'd get to enjoy an additional 8 minutes where: you would learn how people who forget to patent their inventions die; we discuss the three most popular maiming injuries among child labour in the 1800s – number three will really surprise you; and we learn how people in the gentle age of this episode used water, electricity, cream and beef broth to unscramble your nervous system. 

This episode came by overwhelming request, and because I wanted to spend some time in every town destroyed during today’s events, this became our longest episode ever. It’s not all bad though. We’ll get to watch the creation of the American Red Cross before our eyes. It is mostly bad though. Today’s disaster sits easily in the top five worst things we’ve ever seen, and the bodycount would remain intact for the next 112 years – until the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in NYC.

On today’s episode: we learn what makes the world capital of mud farts so fascinating; we’ll discover why Soviet utilities designed for the utilitarian benefit of the masses are so flammable; and I’ll make you understand the analogy that you don’t survive a skydive accident just to get eaten by alligators.

And because you are listening to this as a Patreon supporter, you get to enjoy an additional 9 minutes where we discuss: the marketing plan that included a media budget for murdering an elephant; the answer to the question, “what’s the most aggressively violent disaster your hometown completely forgot”; the reason why Transit Authority cadaver removal kits include a kind of industrial spatula; and, we learn why Trauma Professionals call this kind of injury "the barbecue effect". 

If you remember our Mandhradevi Temple Apocalypse of 2005 and our St. Pierre Volcanic Bio-Swarm of 1902 episodes, what made those so special were the relentless waves of terror that presented themselves one after another - each more deadly than the last. This episode follows in the spirit of those predecessors with a very special reveal in the tunnel that surprised everyone. Speaking of tunnels, it’s been a while since we’ve visited the underground and lived to talk about it. Without spoiling anything, this will be the worst underground vehicle disaster of all time, so no pressure.

On today’s episode:  we answer the question, is 2025 in fact as awful a time to fly as it looks; we’ll find out why you’ve never seen 400 mph wind exfoliation spa before; and we’ll compare a commercial airliner to the Titan Submersible that imploded not that long ago.

And because you are listening to this as a Patreon supporter, you get to enjoy an additional 8 minutes where we discuss: how a distrust of doctors can make you want to saw off your own fingers; you’d hear this whole jank sitch broken down for Gen Z; you’d learn why you shouldn’t melon-ball your eyes out of your head if they get too cold; and we would meet the coldest person to ever live, and her dramatic journey from river corpse to successful radiologist.

It’s a pleasure to once again be able to present a story of survival so horrific you’d risk permanent sinus damage just listening to it. Not since our William Rankin Weathersode Disaster of 1959 episode have we followed in the footsteps of someone so unassumingly superhuman that they survived unimaginable levels of injury and torture.

This episode also acted as double duty, answering the question: is it still safe for me to fly in 2025. We’ll talk about the FAA, but we’re not talking about politics. The closest I will come is to say it’s entirely possible that one day America is run by write-in candidate, Walt Disney’s unfrozen head mounted on Abraham Lincoln’s animatronic body from the Hall of Presidents. America can do as it pleases. I am simply here to try to keep people safe, regardless on how you feel about the issue. And on that note, I’ll keep my opinion safely stored within the episode itself, but spoiler: I think you’re going to be okay.

What’s the worst thing you ever saw at a sports game? Someone throw a battery at a Make-a-Wish kid? Sure, if you’re from Philly, but what if you were from California.

On today’s episode: we’ll talk about zombies and crucifictions and collapsing buildings before we even get into it; we’re going to watch the shortest baseball game of all time; and we’re going to cut off one of your limbs in one of the more claustrophobic ways possible.

And if you were listening on Patreon… you would hear of one of the most extreme, but very different kind of arm-severing examples of self-rescue in history; the story of a must-have, closed-casket-funeral-friendly rescue device and the absolutely brutal, very public early use of it; and a really dirty, smutty explanation how earthquakes work.

By popular request, we present The Loma Prieta Earthquake Disaster of 1989! So, we’ll end up talking about my history with zombies and a popular crucifixion and a slowly collapsing building - two of three events set in San Francisco itself – all before we settle in to watch the shortest baseball game of all time.

Not just that, we're actually going to (for the first time ever) interrupt a safety segment with a Patreon-exclusive retelling of the shockingly horrific and awful just-kill-me-now-already story of Aron Ralston. You might remember him as the guy who chewed his arm off after an 800 pound boulder pinned him to a canyon wall in Utah. He didn't actually chew his arm off though. What he did was at least a thousand times worse.

We'll also do a little retelling of the great 1906 San Francisco Earthquake. Can't not do a San Francisco Earthquake disaster without at least bringing it up.

Celebrity guest appearances include world famous author and travel enthusiast, Bill Bryson; crucified magician and Jesus’ friend, Saint Andrew; real estate suckers Joe Montana and Kevin Durant; all four Beatles; sports broadcasters, Al Michaels and Tim McCarver; newscaster, Ted Koppel; crosstown World Series players Dave Stewart, Mike Moore, Jose Canseco, Dave Parker and Terry Kennedy.

On today’s episode:  you’ll learn how to squeeze every penny out of a beloved animal corpse; I’ll accidentally teach you why fire is the best way to get rid of leaves, or a body; and you’ll learn the surprisingly simple thing you should do if you found yourself full-bodied origamied into debris.

And if you were listening to this as a Patreon supporter, you get to enjoy an additional 8 minutes where we discuss: two warm up disasters that lead to this one; how close medicine cabinets used to be narcotic liquor cabinets; the incredible fallout of trying to kill people on Twinkies; and the story of high fallutin’ wild west rodeo “war hero” Buffalo Bill Cody

I’m quick to point out to listeners that I don’t like doing episodes where children or animals are hurt, and I’m happy to report the only things dying in this episode are 86 fully grown adults! (And a few animals, I’m sorry, it happens).

However, at the very end of this episode, I really let it go to hell. First I tell you about an elephant that unplugged itself and created a minor panic that my parents may or may not have named my sister after – immediately followed by a barrage dog, bird, car and plane noises all competing to make it unlistenable, but I did it for a very good reason as you will see. Without getting too deeply into it, I have said pretty much since the beginning of this show that we need to keep as many listeners alive and safe as we can. A lot of times, that just means talking.

If you or someone you know is in a bad place and struggling, please don't hesitate to reach out. There are people ready to help.

In Canada, Talk Suicide Canada at 1-833-456-4566 (Available 24/7) or text 45645, or visit www.crisisservicescanada.ca. For youth and young adults, there is also Kids Help Phone at 1-800-668-6868 or text CONNECT to 686868.

In the United States, you can call the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline: just dial 988 (Available 24/7) or you can text HOME to 741741

In the UK, you can reach the Samaratins at 116 123.

Obviously, this kind of thing is not that much fun to contemplate, but have you listened to this show before? We do our damndest to put a smile on some pretty awful stuff, but a face can only stretch so much. Please take care of yourself.

On today’s episode:  you’ll learn how to squeeze every penny out of a beloved animal corpse; I’ll accidentally teach you why fire is the best way to get rid of leaves, or a body; and you’ll learn the surprisingly simple thing you should do if you found yourself full-bodied origamied into debris.

And if you were listening to this as a Patreon supporter, you get to enjoy an additional 8 minutes where we discuss: two warm up disasters that lead to this one; how close medicine cabinets used to be narcotic liquor cabinets; the incredible fallout of trying to kill people on Twinkies; and the story of high fallutin’ wild west rodeo “war hero” Buffalo Bill Cody

I’m quick to point out to listeners that I don’t like doing episodes where children or animals are hurt, and I’m happy to report the only things dying in this episode are 86 fully grown adults! (And a few animals, I’m sorry, it happens).

However, at the very end of this episode, I really let it go to hell. First I tell you about an elephant that unplugged itself and created a minor panic that my parents may or may not have named my sister after – immediately followed by a barrage dog, bird, car and plane noises all competing to make it unlistenable, but I did it for a very good reason as you will see. Without getting too deeply into it, I have said pretty much since the beginning of this show that we need to keep as many listeners alive and safe as we can. A lot of times, that just means talking.

If you or someone you know is in a bad place and struggling, please don't hesitate to reach out. There are people ready to help.

In Canada, Talk Suicide Canada at 1-833-456-4566 (Available 24/7) or text 45645, or visit www.crisisservicescanada.ca. For youth and young adults, there is also Kids Help Phone at 1-800-668-6868 or text CONNECT to 686868.

In the United States, you can call the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline: just dial 988 (Available 24/7) or you can text HOME to 741741

In the UK, you can reach the Samaratins at 116 123.

Obviously, this kind of thing is not that much fun to contemplate, but have you listened to this show before? We do our damndest to put a smile on some pretty awful stuff, but a face can only stretch so much. Please take care of yourself.

On today’s episode:  you’re going to learn why fourth graders make such poor employees; you’ll learn how to properly panic like a professional; and you will learn how to tell people to “get out” using nothing but a shotgun and morse code.

And if you were listening to this on Patreon… you would also learn the story of the Patron Saint who watches over people who explode; you'd learn why underground coal fires are the disaster you can tell your great, great, great, great, great grandchildren about; you would hear a quick anecdote about nicotine poisoning in the workplace and inappropriate banana usage; and you would find out who gets coal for Christmas.

This was another bad-day-at-work episodes, but it was a good one, because it happened in such a small, unassuming place, but had safety ramifications that spread around the world. This is dedicated to everyone who loves mining and mining disasters. And on that note, most people don't think about mining very often - so this is my love letter to the industry. You love mining, you ask? No, not overly, but in my opinion, our entire evolution as a society and as a species would have been impossible without men willing to climb into the earth to do the work too frightening or dangerous for the masses. On the upside, at least it pays well, and we do get the occasional story out of it.

On today’s episode:  we’ll be pulling off the front of our skulls and spending some time fingering our limbic systems; we’ll learn why not all fire rescue services are created equal; and we’ll find out how hot it needs to be for your skin to melt off.

And if you had beenlistening to this as a Patreon supporter, you get to enjoy an additional 8 minutes where we discuss: why calling Germans stoic clock-watching robots is considered so flattering; you’d find out if you’d be considered an idiot, moron or imbecile back in the day; and you’d learn how Dusseldorf compares to Hiroshima.

I will also point out that at the end of the episode, there is a very special Book Giveaway contest! That’s right. I’m giving away the very first book/piece of research I ever used in the creation of the show. William McKeown’s "Idaho Falls: The Untold Story of America's First Nuclear Accident" using a once-in-a-lifetime Name That Tune style contest. You’ll just have to see for yourselves.

I'll be doing a few listener shout-outs at the end of the episode, and also thanking you all for your kind encouragement during a time when I wanted to punch my own face off. I don't have a safety segment against that kind of thing, so your gentle intervention was appreciated. We ended last year with a bang and start the new year with a whoosh! I hope you all at least began 2025 in a better space, but even if you didn’t, we’re burning down an airport together, so forget about your worries for an hour or so.

We've shared 3,489 minutes together! That's just episode time.

That’s just over 58 hours of listening to me trying to make you throw up but then earning your respect back by teaching you how to sew your own arm back on. I tried to figure out how much production time went into that and if I'd started January first and never slept or blinked or ate, it would have taken till mid-April. Imagine screaming for three-and-a-half months straight.

I added a little intro pointing out how great you've been, how helpful you've been, and how much I sincerely appreciate you all being there while I muddle my way through this as professionally as possible. And in this I had the thought to give away the book that started this whole podcast. William McKeown’s book “Idaho Falls, the Untold Story of America’s First Nuclear Accident". I thought it'd make a nice giveaway. Then I had the thought - do I do a charity auction of all my disaster books? Let me know what you guys think.

All that said, we'll all be back for a new episode where we'll be burning down an airport together in no time. I'd say get your safety glasses ready, but they're just going the melt over your eyes.

This episode fulfills the wishes of more listeners than any other episode before. Together we will be visiting the hands-down most dangerous place on earth; you will learn why this is probably the worst bad day at work episode of all time; we’ll visit earth’s model post-apocalyptic suburb; and we’ll find out how much radiation it takes to melt your hands off.

Also if you were listening to this on Patreon… you’d get hear the story of the most irradiated intern in history and his trusty axe; you’d take a side trip to Harrisburg Pennsylvania to find out how their local electric company nearly destroyed the planet; and you’d learn about the most lethal tourist photo opp anywhere on Earth.

I was recently reminded I do this at the request – the literal deathbed request of my father who I lost this time last year. They weren’t his last words or nothing – but I’ve wanted to do this story to share just one of the stories from the homeland he was forced to flee as a child. And on that note, because my dad carried the DNA of Olga of Kiev in his veins, I remind you, your new year’s resolutions can be as petty as seeking revenge and disrespecting your enemies. Whatever you choose to do, I only want you to be safe.

I thank you all for your patience and excitement over the last year. May you all have a happy new year and a better 2025.

On this episode: you’ll hear about the biggest meteorological blunder in US history that went on to change US history by killing a major American city; you’ll hear the absolute saddest story about orphans of all time; and you’ll learn about the worst cadaver recovery and fatality management in the show’s history.

Also, if you had been listening to this as a Patreon supporter, you would enjoy an additional 9 minutes where we discussed why Hurricane Gertrude and Fifi have to make room for Vince or Tupac; we talked about the biggest meteorological blunder in British history; PLUS you would learn about two tangentially related local-area disasters – The Great Mississippi Flood of 1927, and The Texas A&M Bonfire Disaster of 1999.

I have a mild preference for stories where the actions of an individual become crucially linked to a disaster. Not because I like blaming people. Frankly, the idea of the responsibility for a colossal death toll resting in the hands of a single individual is horrifying. And this was an insane death toll. Very few of our stories ever kill into the thousands like this. And like most disasters, they result from a combination of factors all working together for the worst collective outcome. Oh, and Helen Keller makes an appearance in this episode!

On this episode: you’ll hear about the biggest meteorological blunder in US history that went on to change US history by killing a major American city; you’ll hear the absolute saddest story about orphans of all time; and you’ll learn about the worst cadaver recovery and fatality management in the show’s history.

Also, if you had been listening to this as a Patreon supporter, you would enjoy an additional 9 minutes where we discussed why Hurricane Gertrude and Fifi have to make room for Vince or Tupac; we talked about the biggest meteorological blunder in British history; PLUS you would learn about two tangentially related local-area disasters – The Great Mississippi Flood of 1927, and The Texas A&M Bonfire Disaster of 1999.

I have a mild preference for stories where the actions of an individual become crucially linked to a disaster. Not because I like blaming people. Frankly, the idea of the responsibility for a colossal death toll resting in the hands of a single individual is horrifying. And this was an insane death toll. Very few of our stories ever kill into the thousands like this. And like most disasters, they result from a combination of factors all working together for the worst collective outcome. Oh, and Helen Keller makes an appearance in this episode!

On this episode: you’ll find out which sports fans tried to kill Santa Claus; we’ll find out what stadium security personnel and Acorn Cop have in common; and we’ll meet the very first person to ever come back to life after dying on the show.

Also, if you had been listening to this as a Patreon supporter, you would enjoy an additional 9 minutes where we discussed the theatre of human pain that is professional soccer; you’d learn about the single worst fan over-reaction to the loss of a game in sports history; you’d take a listen through the incestuous, genital-laden world of European sports chants; and you’d learn why urine works better on tear gas than jellyfish stings.

They say at its core, soccer transcends language, class, or background. It’s all about people coming together with nothing more than a ball and some open space. All that will be true about today’s episode, except for the part about space. A lot of disasters are the result of multiple preventable causes coming together in the worst way. Nowhere is that more true than in today’s episode - but for the most part, it was the police. The Ghana Institute of Architects may have called the setting for today’s story a death trap, which is why I have petitioned to change the name to the Ghana Institute of Architects and Psychic Predictions. You’ll just have to wait and find out for yourself.

Celebrity guests include: multiple-injury lawsuit artist, Santa Claus; hot air balloon novice, the Easter Bunny; former wide receiver for the Dallas Cowboys, Michael Irvin; former Okaloosa County, Florida, Sheriff's Deputy, Jesse Hernandez, aka Acorn Cop; and President of Ghana, President John Kufuor.

Today will be an all weather-related disastersode, and the cast of characters won’t count in the hundreds or the thousands – it will be just one brave man, who – spoilers – survives everything I’m about to tell you. A single man, pitted against what I believe you will think of as the worst day at work we’ve ever covered on this show.

I originally wanted to make this straight Patreon content during the recent Bangladesh Hail Disaster of 1986 episode, but at 40 minutes, you can understand why I spun it off into its own story – and I tried to keep it brief, but It could easily have been longer.

I can’t honestly think of anyone in history with the kind of mental resilience of gumption to make it through an experience this insanely testing without losing their marbles, let alone their life. William H Rankin will forever live on in the imaginations of those who fear flight and all aspects of air-travel with awe and terror – and I hope you enjoy his tale.

On this episode: we’ll take a look at the only car ever compared to a barbecue; we’re taking in the only sporting event in history that was later compared by the press to the holocaust; and you’ll hear about the first accidental public use of an unintentional horizontal guillotine.

Also, if you had been listening to this as a Patreon supporter, you would enjoy an additional 9 minutes where we discussed the upper limits of human reaction time; you would get to meet America’s most physically damaged stuntman; you would also be treated to more Dodge Caravan Math than you could fly a rocket bike over; you would learn about a non-sexual, full body invisible burning phenomena; and on-topic, we will look at the history of strange ways people have died at today’s events, just in different years.

I start this episode with a quaint tale of surviving a highway crash in a Ford Pinto of all things, cover you in minced spectator, and by the end I am going to teach you the horrific fate of drug abuser and former hockey legend, Tim Horton. In the middle, I’m going to do my best to show you in every way possible how automotive racing is the most dangerous sport imaginable, and then why your daily commute is 1,000x duller and even deadlier. RIP my three dead cars.

This is my chance to publicly answer some of the friendly, odd and occasionally gross questions that feed in through our various social media channels.

On this episode: I’m going to look at franchising disaster into child-friendly fare; I’ll make a very child-unfriendly choice between two equally terrible ways to die; and I’m going to make a very stomach-unfriendly choice between two equally terrible things to eat.

No spoilers, but after much deliberation, a coin tells me I’d prefer to die by wood chipper than be killed by an elephant. I also review our entire history of episodes to figure out which would be the most entertaining for children and Times Square tourists. And in the end, I eat onions. Multiple onions. Like apples.

On this episode: you’ll learn why telling people the body is 80% water is misquoting a war crime; you’ll learn about the time it rained every day for 2 million years in a row; and you’ll see how a simple cloud can make you look like people tested baseball bats on you, and why you should basically wear a helmet everywhere all the time.

Also, if you had been listening to this as a Patreon supporter, you would enjoy an additional 15 minutes where we discussed why everyone was so afraid of Canadians during WWII; you’d hear the abbreviated history of British Evil, including the single greatest act of geographical terrorism of all time; you’d learn why the word moisture makes people want to peel their faces off; you would learn about a European Mountain Goddess who filled a lake with partially decomposed skeletons; and you’d get to hear an actual spin-off prequel disaster from today’s main tale.

My top three-ish list for biggest things falling from the sky go: meteors, then planes, then birds, with hail collecting the pewter medal for coming in fourth. This fits nicely into my “let’s visit more of the world” suite as promised, and more than a few of you have said weather-related episodes are your favourites. Well, it turns out, Bangladesh is beautiful – but it’s currently undergoing a governmental job quota scandal/rubber bullet block party which makes it just a tad unsafe to visit. That said, visiting unsafe places is kind of our whole gig, and at least we got to explore a kind of disaster we’ve never covered before.

Also, if you had been listening to this as a Patreon supporter, you would enjoy an additional 15 minutes where we discussed why everyone was so afraid of Canadians during WWII; you’d hear the abbreviated history of British Evil, including the single greatest act of geographical terrorism of all time; you’d learn why the word moisture makes people want to peel their faces off; you would learn about a European Mountain Goddess who filled a lake with partially decomposed skeletons; and you’d get to hear an actual spin-off prequel disaster from today’s main tale.

My top three-ish list for biggest things falling from the sky go: meteors, then planes, then birds, with hail collecting the pewter medal for coming in fourth. This fits nicely into my “let’s visit more of the world” suite as promised, and more than a few of you have said weather-related episodes are your favourites. Well, it turns out, Bangladesh is beautiful – but it’s currently undergoing a governmental job quota scandal/rubber bullet block party which makes it just a tad unsafe to visit. That said, visiting unsafe places is kind of our whole gig, and at least we got to explore a kind of disaster we’ve never covered before.

On this episode: we learn why Georgia and Australia are basically the same thing; we’ll learn why American freight and commuter trains make so many unscheduled stops; and we’ll describe a situation where stop, drop and roll loses all meaning.

Also, if you had been listening to this as a Patreon supporter, you would enjoy an additional 10 minutes where we discussed two other related disasters, including the deadliest case of mass curiosity in United States history; you would learn why we run like molasses in our nightmares; and you’d hear the tale of one man who has to be bound and drugged to keep him from jumping out of windows. 

This came as a request from a listener that I was happy to oblige. It’s a terrible story, but one that reminds us that the shared experience of fear, loss, and uncertainty breaks down barriers that might have previously divided us. Trauma can bond and unite us in ways that ordinary life rarely does. Ironically, it’s the thing that brings us all together on this show. On topic, almost half the bridges in the continental US have been treated worse than residents of seniors homes, so be careful out there.

Celebrity guests include silk worm Utopiast, James Oglethorpe; colonial fairy godfather, King George II of England; political opinionist, Kanye West, and a very brief cameo from Jesus Christ.

Sometimes you put out a brochure with a typo. Sometimes you ding the bosses car. Very rarely do you accidentally destroy a $30 million nuclear missile.

On this episode: you’ll learn the history of human violence from Paleolithic shoving to nuclear annihilation; I’ll teach you how to sneak into a top secret missile silo; and there is a disaster in this episode – but unlike most – this one uses the phrase “blown skinless”.

Also, if you had been listening to this as a Patreon supporter, you would enjoy an additional 11 minutes where we discussed how frighteningly close we’ve come to accidental Armageddon and the one man who saved all of humanity; why the government spends $10,000 on a hammer; you’d learn how you can buy your own nuclear missile silo; and you’d hear the story of the fastest manmade object of all time which actually predates the Sputnik launch.

As far as bad day at work episodes go, this one has it all. Bad conditions, bad hours, bad moral, leaking poisons, radiation exposure, and a never-ending, sneaking suspicion, that no matter what, you’re probably going to die at work. We’ve never had a work-related episode where if everything goes to plan, everybody dies. Everyone alive at the time spent most days waiting for what seemed like the inevitable apocalypse to come, but some how it didn’t. And by the time you’re finished this episode, you’re going to believe as I do, that us all still being here and alive is a complete fluke.

Celebrity guests include the first proto-human to have their face eaten off by a porcupine; mockery of a bad Halloween costume and former President Richard Mulhouse Nixon; the entire Ocean’s Eleven heist team except it’s only actually you, and a very quick cameo from The Little Dutch Boy, who again did nothing, because he wasn’t real.

On this episode:  you’ll learn why Captain James Cook left Hawaii with a knife in his head – and chest – and back and abdomen and face; you’ll learn the clothes-eating, skin-ripping, skull-flattening results of jumping feet first into an active hurricane; and you’ll hear about recovery efforts somehow more damaging than the original disaster
 
And if you were a Patreon supporter, you would also enjoy an additional 10 minutes where we discussed:

•  why in about 600,000 years New Zealand will be some of the most prized real estate in the world

•  we clarify why a corpse in a captain’s outfit isn’t a must-have after every disaster

•  you get a sad reminder that not all ship crews are created equal

•  you hear all about the Marmite Disaster of 2011 that killed over 20,000 people and injured another 8,300

•  and you’ll learn of the horrific tale of the worst, most sea-sickening voyage of all time.

Full disclosure, we’ll make a little bit of fun of Australia in this episode, but less than a minute’s worth, I swear. And it’s all in good fun. In fact, it’s the only real fun to be had. I did this episode as a thank you to a listener from New Zealand, not having been there, and based purely off having read more individual rescue tales for the story than any other episode of this show to date, I have to say this. My first exposure to NZ culture was through a movie called Once Were Warriors. I’ll discuss it quickly in the episode, but it basically painted the country as an urban living hellscape of social problems. My takeaway from preparing this episode is that New Zealanders are warm, caring, brave and selfless. It was a pleasure to put together, and we’ll be back.

Celebrity guest stars include: filmmaker and hobbit enthusiast, Peter Jackson; knife-wound collector and world traveller, Captain James Cook; extratropical cyclone and buzzkill, Cyclone Giselle; sea-sickness pioneer and turtle collector, Charles Darwin; and aquatic-themed Diety and pro-nudist, Poseidon.

All that said, I am giving away a jar of Marmite to one lucky listener. I just haven’t decided what the contest will be yet…

Also, if you had been listening to this as a Patreon supporter, you would enjoy an additional 9 minutes where we discussed the top four deadliest volcanoes in history, the most famous person in human history to actually swan dive into a volcano, why being eaten by a bears or struck by lightning is better than what happens in this episode, the strange tale of 800,000 Icelandic farting sheep, and what accidentally cooking your friend’s brain smells like – including a quick cooking tip.

Even I was impressed with how gory today’s story turned out. There were way more, very specific details I could have shared about various injuries, but decided there had to be a line. As for how many other people will have their faces blown off in unpredicted volcanic eruptions, but one will be too many and a hundred won’t be enough.

Facebook : 71fullhttps://doomsdaypodcast.com/episode/the-manchester-woolworths-inferno-of-1979-episode-72
Special shout out to my UK listeners! On today’s fresh new episode: we’ll see how cold and aloof British parents can be; we’ll see how bad psychology makes some shoppers believe they are practically immortal and fire proof; and we’ll see which planet in our solar system has better, more breathable air than was available in today’s story – and hint, it’s not Earth.

Let me mention, there are actually three disasters in this episode. The actual disaster in Manchester, another one at an IKEA right off the bat, and that poor Woolworths that Hitler hated? He hated it with a rocket. And the reaction of some victims of this disaster would lead to the creation of an actual area of study for academics interested in the bizarre behaviour of people in emergency situations. We've had people walk into burning buildings before because of trauma, but this will be something completely different.

At the time this episode took place, it was the worst fire-related tragedy since WWII, but we'll also discover how this disaster changed the history of home and business safety and ended up saving thousands of lives.

Special celebrity guests include retail super juggernaut, Frank Woolworth; hated former Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher; poison obsessed Swiss physicist, Walter Jaeger; worst mother in the world, Catherine McGuinn; British author and redneck enthusiast, George Orwell; former President Donald J. Trump; former Philippino dictator Ferdinand Marcos and his wife, Imelda; and the former wealthiest man in America, Sam Walton.


And if you were a Patreon supporter, you would also enjoy an additional 9.5 minutes where we discussed:

•   where Philippino dictators and Donald Trump fit into NYC’s real estate dick measuring contest

•   where American rednecks came from

•   the conspiracy surrounding Mattress stores on every corner across the US

•   and we’ll took a minute to find out just how much Hitler hated Woolworths

Special shout out to my UK listeners! On today’s fresh new episode: we’ll see how cold and aloof British parents can be; we’ll see how bad psychology makes some shoppers believe they are practically immortal and fire proof; and we’ll see which planet in our solar system has better, more breathable air than was available in today’s story – and hint, it’s not Earth.

Let me mention, there are actually three disasters in this episode. The actual disaster in Manchester, another one at an IKEA right off the bat, and that poor Woolworths that Hitler hated? He hated it with a rocket. And the reaction of some victims of this disaster would lead to the creation of an actual area of study for academics interested in the bizarre behaviour of people in emergency situations. We've had people walk into burning buildings before because of trauma, but this will be something completely different.

On this episode: On today’s episode: we’ll see how hot dogging at work can destroy your soul; you’d forever remember the list of countries that make up the Alps thanks to MILFGASS; and we’ll see how the north American concept of giving out awards regardless of merit actually began with the military.

This is I believe our third trip to Bella Italia, and I don’t want to spoil the duplicitous little twist in this episode. There is a story arc of an attempted redemption from sin. Justice will be paper thin. There may be some awards handed out. It’ll get weird, however many times it needs to. If you've never been in a gondola in a wind storm halfway up a mountain, this is as close as you're going to get. And by the time you're done, you'll wish you'd just spent an awful afternoon teetering over certain death. 

I you had been listening on Patreon, you would have enjoyed an additional 13 minutes where we discussed:

•  why I can’t sell stupid moon rocks

•  we meet the single least likely and least prepared athlete in the history of the winter Olympics

•  we find out who the funniest people roasting in hell are

•  and we reveal how Google is trying to convince us all to poison and kill ourselves

On this episode: we look at the Netherlands pyrotechnic super boner; we explore the fact that a time bomb could be ticking away in your area without you knowing; and we’ll uncover one governments’ habit of sweeping disasters under the rug by cleaving a transport plane through an apartment building.

No real spoiler here, but this is one of those episodes where the bad guys carried on the shoulders of the courts like misunderstood anti-heroes, and the authorities in general show a fairly unhealthy disregard for human life. But to pull it back to a human level, these people had their overly-tall hairdos rearranged, and we coined a whole new phrase for this show: “gawk block”. I think I’ll make some gawk blocker t-shirts  … one day.

And if you were a Patreon supporter, you would also enjoy an additional 8 minutes where we discussed:

•  why the Little Dutch boy was full of crap

•  you’d learn how many dead children it would actually take to plug a significant dam break

•  and you’d enjoy another whole minisode, all about the all-time deadliest firework related tragedy of all time which may come as a surprise – the wedding of Marie Antoinette to King Louis the XVI!

Balloons often represent happiness, but if you’ve ever had to explain to a crying child why their balloon flew away and won’t be coming back, you know that balloons are monsters.

On this new and much requested episode: you’ll learn the origin of the phrase, “it seemed like a good idea at the time”; we learn why Cleveland is called the Mistake by the Lake, and we’ll see what is probably the most amount of damage one could possibly hope to achieve with balloons.

And if you are thinking of listening to this as a Patreon supporter, for the first time ever, there are TWO ENTIRE MINISODES within this episode that no one else will get to hear

The first on the Cuyahoga River Fire Disaster of 1969; and a second on the Cleveland 10¢ Beer Night Disaster of 1974. We also look at the horrible history of promotions and publicity stunts that backfired catastrophically; and we learned why you never fire guns.

About the actual main story here, we are definitely in a Cleveland state of mind, and I will tell you this one quote from the episode:

Literally no part of this came together like it was supposed to, and in keeping with Cleveland’s long habit of not having things go it’s way, one observer was quoted as saying “it's actually quite impressive how badly it turned out”. There are terrorist attacks that aren't as successful as balloon fest.

Deezer. : 67fullhttps://doomsdaypodcast.com/episode/bonus-the-tesla-cybertruck-automotive-review-disastersode-of-2024Welcome to the very first Doomsday Automotive Review segment. I’ve never done one of these before, and most importantly, I shouldn’t have to, but here we are.

It was originally released as part of bonus Patreon content, but I'm sharing it here with you now to buy me a few days to get the next episode together.

Since we originally brought it up, more Tesla Cybertrucks have wrapped around trees, smoked by semis, accidentally confusing the startup toggle for the self-destruct sequence. And apparently, the reason people are facing that five-hour restart time is because they activated car wash mode. Here’s the thing - as we said, you have to keep this thing as clean as hell - cleaner than anything else you own, and if you use it in a car wash without activating car wash mode - guess what happens? They void your warranty. Good thing no one who owns a Cybertruck needs to work - or they would be pretty fired for that kind of nonsense.

And the stock has continued to slump. Might have something to do with lying to shareholders about how many of these things they’ve actually sold. For clarification, they’ve sold less than half of what the original Back to the Future style Delorean did back in the day - and the Delorean is widely regarded a massive commercial flop.

Anyways I wanted to thank you all for listening. I’m sharing this with the bulk of my audience just because you deserve to be safe - physically and financially, and I am here for you. I’ll be back next week with an all new episode including two full minisodes inside the regular episode, special for my Patreon listeners.

On this episode: you won’t learn to fly a plane but I will be able to teach you how not to fly one; we’ll learn what happens when you go skydiving at ground-level; and we’ll learn about a victim who was killed by her own rescuers - twice.

This story will showcase what became of a once proud company known for safety and innovation, and how they’ve become the laughing stock of airlines. Speaking of laughing, we’re also going to test your sense of humour in this one. For starts, yes, one of the victims has something unimaginable happen, and for no good reason - twice! And it’s not just the circumstances of the death that will get off to a weird start - it’s the media’s coverage of the event. I’ll tell you about that right at the end, and ho lee fuk is it a weird one.

Celebrity guests include: virtuoso and piano enthusiast, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart; nervous former pilot from Airplane: The Movie, Ted Striker; one-man anti-terrorist task force and movie star, John McClane; and a quick visit from professional worriers, Serena Williams and Tom Hanks.
And if you were a Patreon supporter, you would also enjoy an additional 12 minutes where we discussed:

•  Canada’s love/hate relationship with a retailer legally called Crappy Tire

•  how Boeing became such an absolute fart of a company

•  we recapped the beloved Christmas tale Die Hard 2

•  we explored the parallels between this disaster and Airplane: The Movie

•   and the world’s first safety segment within a safety segment where we cover what to do if you survive a plane crash and the universe tries to Final Destination you about it

This is a piece of bonus content which I described as "a somewhat rushed minisode that once again turned out to be not so mini". It was based on the best evidence and understanding of events that was available at the time. I think I can safely say no much has changed since then, so I stand by it. 

I also stand by some substantially backed-up billionaire bashing.

I did my best to cut through the social media clutter and applied my own math as best I could - but the fact about this disaster is it is unprescidented. We're talking about physics and hydrodynamics at levels we have zero experience with, and no real way to test, or reason to try. So many things had to go wrong for this to happen, and I will happily singing-telegram-style deliver the blame directly to Stockton Rush's door.

In this new episode, you will learn:

•  Just how fascinatingly irresponsible Stockton Rush was

•  Why making fun of dead billionaires is good for you

•  Exactly how unbelievably nightmarish the last trip of the Titan was

There will be math and science and gelatinous goo, all for you my loyal listeners.

On this episode: we’ll learn all the ways your car wants to kill you, we’ll learn which member of the original Thanksgiving feast ended up with their head on a pike for 25 years, and we’ll find out what happens when you play rock paper scissors bumper plow.
 
This is the first episode we’ve done where the site of the catastrophe later became an annual sporting event recreating the event. The Frank Rockslide Disaster of 1903 stands as one of the most devastating and tragic events in the history of Alberta and was claimed to be the worst disaster that has even befallen any community in Western Canada.

Celebrity guests include: my wife, aggrieved driver; highway enthusiast, Dwight D. Eisenhower;  historical revisionist, Abraham Lincoln;massacre enthusiast, Massachusetts Bay Governor, John Winthrop; and holiday-travel enthusiast, Dante of Dante’s Inferno fame.
 
And if you had been listening on Patreon, you would have enjoyed an additional 10.5 minutes where we discussed:

•  landing planes on highways

•  how bizarre the Mandela Effect is

•  we look at the weird, dark origins of Thanksgiving

•  we found out why TripAdvisor and Yelp reviewers hate Plymouth Rock

•  we look into why people suck at driving

•  and the history of the Cannonball Run

• we talked about how I used to write idiot letters to companies and the time I successfully conned an Industrial Spring company

• also the time it resulted in my being investigated as a possible threat to Canadian aviation

• the oldest companies in history

• the most powerful earthquake in Canadian history

• we spent some time on the Appalachian Trail hurting ourselves on the Mahoosic Notch

• looked at a town that will be on fire for the next few centuries

• and what happens when disaster tourism meets shotguns

• the unlikely corporate-destroying legal Vunderkind Erin Brokovich

On today’s episode: we’ll learn all about Russia’s almost cartoonish fascination with murder, we’ll learn the best way to get that full-body boil-look, and we’ll learn all the ways your cleaning products can make you not make think so good

The last time we were in Italy we had a Tetraology of Terror, our very first interactive disastersode, and hundreds of thousands died in every way imaginable. We don’t know how many people died from the complications of this episode, but it’s nice to do a bloodless story where no one was turned inside-out every now and then.

And if you had been listening on Patreon, you would have enjoyed an additional 13 minutes!

• We discussed the cartoonish cloak and dagger world of Russian assassination tactics • the lifesaving and bowel cleaning properties of Olestra

• We discussed whether Catherine the Great had sex with horses

• We covered how disturbingly little vacation time North America gets compared to, well, the rest of the planet really

• We discussed the radiance of American superfund sites, including my semi-local favourite, Love Canal

• And I included a minisode within the episode telling the unbelievable tale of Times Beach, Missouri and their impossibly poisonous road spraying technique

And if you had been listening to this on Patreon, we alsowould have discussed whether Aesop was a thieving jerk, we found out Maury Povich never loved you, we met the loneliest/most extreme insects in the world, we found out if having grasshopper superpowers would kill you, we looked at the weirdest historical plague ever, we discussed the most disturbing regional delicacies in the world, and we shared a recipe for cricket protein energy balls.

I never preach about environmental issues on the show, but you are going to hear about a kind of insect apocalypse that plays the weather the way my dad used to play the ponies. How big an issue will we be talking about? To this day, according to the Guinness Book of World Records, our story remains the largest concentration of living creatures, ever.

Celebrity cameos include the God of the Old Testament; biblical prophet Moses; the Angel of Death, Pharoah Ramesses II of Egypt; Aesop the Greek fable man; Frau Troffea, queen of the Strasbourg plague dance, and human guinea pig John Stapp.

On today’s episode: We’ll see what happens to the body after spinning around an ocean-going paddle wheel, we’ll see how much woman and children were worth in a disaster before the 1900s, and you’ll find out how bizarre it feels to be stabbed while presumedly waiting to sexually assault drowning victims.

And if you were listening on Patreon, you’d also learn how not to become a scurvy-riddled corpse, you’ll hear about the drunk driving death of the most isolated tree on Earth, we’ll see how many maggots or worms it would take to press into a porterhouse steak, we’ll discuss the worst, most blood-soaked maritime shipboard punishments, and we’ll even cover the tragicomic clown show that was the Costa Concordia crash of 2005.

I’ve said more than a thing or two here that might give you pause - but let me also tell you, by the time this thing is done, there’s gonna be a parade! Also, I shout out a bunch of new Patreon supporters, but I want to remind you all that there is more than enough room in my heart for all of you. I love and appreciate you all. Enjoy!

On today’s episode: we’ll watch POWs compete for food in a House Hunters International style format, we’ll visit some of the more irradiated places in eastern Europe, and we’ll learn the difference between a burp and a fart explosion-wise.

I’d also like to point out that if you were listening to this episode as a PATREON member, not only would you have heard it sooner and add-free, but this episode would be almost 10 minutes longer as we looked into dead cold war spies, the Instagrammers of the Siberian Maldives, the British sci-fi show lifted directly from this disaster and placed on the moon - Space 1999, the awful reality of nuclear dirty bombs, we visited the single most nuked place on earth, we learn why meteors pretty much have no choice but to kill us, and I gave you a chance to get in on the ground floor of my bullet ant stinging business

The 1957 Kyshtym Disaster is recognized as the world's first truly major nuclear disaster, ranking third in severity behind only Chernobyl and Fukushima Daiichi. And yet, despite its incredible pedigree and importance, knowledge of it has faded or slipped purposefully into history’s dustbin, largely unknown to the rest of the world

On today’s episode: we’ll do our best not to end up headless in prison, you’ll learn the most disturbing thing to ever unintentionally fall from an airplane in aeronautic history, and we’ll find out if Canadians are actually evil. I’d also like to point out that if you were listening to this episode as a Patreon member, not only would you have heard it sooner and add-free, but this episode would be almost 15 minutes longer as we looked into why your maps suck, the death of flat earthers, the world-changing power of informercials, the Great Oman Cyclone of 1970, oh - I taught you how to become rich, and we touch on about a half dozen other ways people have died terribly in the east.

So if you had visited Mecca at any point in the last 220+ years, there is a chance you might have seen anything from a cartoonishly flattened foot to a stack of bodies too tall to see over. But thankfully, a very slim mathematical chance. And what don’t we take on this show? Slim mathematical chances. Doomsday has the safest, most well-prepared listenership in the world. Has your second favourite podcast ever tried to save your life?

On today’s episode: you’ll hear about the highest stakes game of keep-away ever, the worst kind of airline fuel to use as shampoo, and you’ll hear about a woman who broke a table in half with her face before setting a world record for not dying. And speaking of tid bits and tangents, I’d like to point out that if you were listening to this episode as a Patreon member, not only would you have heard it sooner and add-free, but this episode would be almost 10 MINUTES longer as we looked into the most unusual “self-guided tours” off the Empire State Building, how easy it was to score free smack in 1945, the legend of Killdozer, and a conspiracy-free take on how cheap real estate contributed to 9/11

By the end of this episode, you won’t believe how many people have flown into NYC - literally. The B-25 crash was so intense and bizarre, it actually pushed actual World War II off the front pages of newspapers – for about a minute. But, as does happen throughout history, it was all but immediately purged from the public memory by the bombing of Hiroshima just a week later

On this episode: we will revisit an apocalyptic series of historical events that befell Sicily, Italy all the way back in 1693 – and it’s all natural. What it may lack in rich, historical detail it will more than make up for with the satisfaction of actual participation.

To make the experience feel more four dimensional, here is a short list of items you will need to participate fully:

A wheelbarrow
A clothes dryer
Several pair of shoes
Buckets of dirt, sand or soil – probably a hundred pounds of each
A strong fan
10 lbs of baking soda
8-10 litres of white vinegar
A water bed bladder
probably a hose
definitely a mop
An axe or machete but for the sake of convenience, a large kitchen knife would probably do
One 4x4 or off-road appropriate vehicle
And one set of gloves

I want to thank everyone who submitted their harrowing shrieks and screams for this special event, and I hope you have fun seeing how you all died. One of you was killed as a witch!

On this episode: you’ll learn the best way to transport flaming materials, you’ll see what happens when a company cuts corners in lieu of safety, and we’ll see how google makes things even worse.

Whether I’m telling you about a story from 1641 or 2087, the common denominator across all space and time is a company looking to save a few bucks ahead of safety. And Spain has a unique legal protection called the “Right to be Forgotten” to help protect people in terrible circumstances - but it couldn’t help anyone in this episode.

On this episode: there will be no death. There will be no dismemberment. And the only blood will be coming out of people’s ears. This is a one of a kind minisode celebrating the greatest display of patriotic fury of all time!

I never overly cared about firework shows, but this wasn’t some simple firework show – this was a once in a lifetime spectacle that you experience with every sense you have. Happy birthday America! And the Phillipines of course. Celebrity guests include 16th Century rocket chair pioneer Wan Hu, local TV regular H.P. “Sandy” Purdon, and time-travelling guitarist Marty McFly.

On this episode: you’ll learn about the cuddly fur baby with the strongest bite in the world, we’ll hear about an actual Doomsday cult with more resources than Al Qaeda, and we’ll learn what to do if you found your throat tightening up like an anus.

In a country with so many lethal predators flying, swimming and wriggling around, we’ve added plant life to the list of things that will actually take a go at you and helped unlocked a new fear for the Australian people. Let that sink in.

Celebrity guests include acclaimed author Bill Bryson; the entire News Nine's Morning Breakfast Show lineup with Karl Stefanovic, Sarah Abo, Alex, Brooke, Richard, Tim, Slyvia, David and Jayne; former Australian Prime Minister Harold Holt, former American President Jimmy Carter, and Japanese doomdsay cult, Aum Shinrikyo.

Well in this episode, the ferocity of their attack will be compared by survivors and investigators to that of a terrorist incident. On this episode: you’ll learn about the cuddly fur baby with the...
On this episode: you’ll learn about the cuddly fur baby with the strongest bite in the world, we’ll hear about an actual Doomsday cult with more resources than Al Qaeda, and we’ll learn what to do if you found your throat tightening up like an anus.

In a country with so many lethal predators flying, swimming and wriggling around, we’ve added plant life to the list of things that will actually take a go at you and helped unlocked a new fear for the Australian people. Let that sink in.

Celebrity guests include acclaimed author Bill Bryson; the entire News Nine's Morning Breakfast Show lineup with Karl Stefanovic, Sarah Abo, Alex, Brooke, Richard, Tim, Slyvia, David and Jayne; former Australian Prime Minister Harold Holt, former American President Jimmy Carter, and Japanese doomdsay cult, Aum Shinrikyo.

On today’s episode: we’ll settle a long-standing misconception about who parties harder: American teens vs British teens edition. We’ll see what happens when you put degenerates in charge of public safety, and we’ll see how a janky them park ride can lead to a janky spine.

It’s always amazing to me when we discuss a “forgotten disaster” that turns out to be the biggest of its kind in history, and this tale is no different. Whether trapped on a ride while the kid in the control booth sleeps one off, or another fair goer punts your head into the children’s area, rides are inherently dangerous, and that’s what we love about them – just not so much the details

On this episode: we’ll investigate some smells that rank up there with putrefying corpse, we’ll talk about some limbs that act more like meat-filled wind socks, and we’ll visit Mexico’s underworld and face something more dangerous than gators, morlocks or chuds…

In all of our tales, something extreme or terrible happens and we cope with the consequences as they come. What about an event where something impossibly bad happened repeatedly, with no warning, and no way to escape or guess where it was going to happen next. This is yet another in a long line of episodes where people placed in positions of authority make decisions that end up turning an entire voting block into ghosts.

Celebrity guests include the Aztecs, the Atlanteans, my neighbour Mike, and the Virgin Mary.

If you already listen to the Ye Olde Crime Podcast and ever wondered what could possibly be their most disturbing episode – well we've thrown our hat in the ring with this one-of-a-kind crossover-hijacking episode. Hosts Lindsay Valenty and Madison Stangl and I explored the dehydratingly awful tale of the Aldgate Pump of Death, brought painfully to life with a Doomsday makeover!

In this very special episode, we'll discuss the most drastic weight loss strategy available to the people of Victorian england, we'll revisit the phenomemon of exploding horses from an earlier episode, and we'll explore the question: would you rather be human-centipeded or live in cholera-ridden England.

Together we’ve seen an awful lot of $@!# across time and space and it’s only natural that you would have questions – so here is your chance hear them answered. Maybe learn something a little gross, maybe a little interesting.

This is my chance to publicly answer some of the friendly, odd and occasionally gross questions that feed in through our various social media channels.

On this episode: I’m taking a very good listener question and making an entire minisode out of it. We will answer the question, who is the Most Disastrous Human to Ever Live. There are a lot of ways to interpret this, but I’m pretty happy with our conclusions here. We’ll find out how this one unique individual’s creations made people stupider – literally stupider, all around the world, and nearly sterilized all life off the planet. This person has been called “the most dangerous single organism to ever exist since the earth’s crust cooled billions of years ago. Take a listen, and you’ll agree.

Celebrity guests include multi-murderer/historical turd Hitler, multi-platinum singer Mariah Carey, multi-atomic explosion survivor Tsutomu Yamaguchi, and that guy who rubbed lemon juice all over his face because he thought it made him invisible to security cameras.

If you’re curious to hear my take on things rattling around upstairs, feel free to holler. You can reach out on twitter, instagram and facebook as DoomsdayPodcast or fire us an email to doomsdaypod@gmail.com

On this very special 50th episode, we’ll be visiting America’s most homicidal National Park, you’ll learn the early forensic value of “carbonized smears of paint and metal”, and we’ll see what happens to the body during and after cartoonish levels of impact violence.

Mark my words, one day the Grand Canyon will be fenced to stop people from visiting the bottom unintentionally. No doubt, of all the sites we’ve visited together, this one is the most captivatingly beautiful and blood-thirsty.

Celebrity guests include neolithic cavemen, early American adventurer John Powell, park enthusiast Ron Swanson, and that guy who downed a British Air flight with the power of his poop.

Crashing, Choking and Chaos: Doomsday Mailbag 6

Together we’ve seen an awful lot of $@!# across time and space and it’s only natural that you would have questions – so here is your chance hear them answered. Maybe learn something a little gross, maybe a little interesting.

This is my chance to publicly answer some of the friendly, odd and occasionally gross questions that feed in through our various social media channels.

On this episode: I’m going to recap the events of last Friday where I crashed some vehicles, fought some crime, made some unexpected friends, and did what I could to try to save a few lives. It was a day.

Off topic, check out our Patreon this week for a special retro episode of Chopper Talk - the first podcast concept imagineered at Funeral Kazoo.

If you’re curious to hear my take on things rattling around upstairs, feel free to holler. You can reach out on twitter, instagram and facebook as DoomsdayPodcast

On this episode: you’ll unlock a brand new fear you didn’t know about before; we’ll talk about the most panic inducing cross-training exercise ever; and we’ll teach you the best way to not get eaten by a machine.

I’ve always said every time we find out some innocuous thing that we’ve always taken for granted is actually a source of unexpected danger, we’re having a good day. Honestly, as soon as I heard “escalator”, I just knew this was going to be good, or bad depending. Like a lot of unusual transit disasters, they usually happen because of maintenance issues and the lazy garbage responsible. For this though, we’re talking USSR style transit issue. Yes, dying under a heap of fellow commuters doesn’t provide the dignity I’m hoping my own funeral will project, but on the other hand, we’re going to get to spend some time in the Moscow Metro system, which aesthetically is hard to beat. This one is called one of the darkest days in the history of the world’s busiest subway system and the deadliest disaster of its kind.

Celebrity guests include historical figure Josef Stalin, early pioneer of DIY flight Icarus, and the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Dancers.

In this episode: you’ll learn how insurance companies and the courts use God to ruin your day; we’ll hear about a disaster you can recreate in your own home using a washing machine and rocks; and you’ll see how you could use a river snake as a comfort animal.

Most of our stories are told in the spirit of “we can learn to be safer” – and for the most part that means from fire or shrapnel – but some of our stories are told to make sure you know your elected officials can be as dangerous, if not more dangerous than a natural disaster – because politicians are replaceable and preventable!

You live in rural West Virginia because you appreciate the quiet, relatively private life away from it all. It’s basically as placid and tranquil a location as can be – until the day an apocalypse washes your home and everything around it like a flume ride to oblivion.

The Buffalo Creek disaster was awful in the way God running his tongue across your neighbourhood would be awful. Also, his tongue is made out of coal slurry. This is a transformative kind of disaster, that turns people into corpses and villages into flotsam with almost no warning.

Celebrity guests include light-hearted guitarist John Denver, former President Richard Nixon, and the cartoonishly evil former Governor of West Virginia Arch Alfred Moore Jr.

Together we’ve seen an awful lot of $@!# across time and space and it’s only natural that you would have questions – so here is your chance hear them answered. Maybe learn something a little gross, maybe a little interesting.

This is my chance to publicly answer some of the friendly, odd and occasionally gross questions that feed in through our various social media channels.

On this episode: I’m going to freeball a question about flying to death, we’ll discuss a way to die so extreme – they still have to invent it, and that’ll have to be that this week because I have to keep things quick. That said, I’m also going to share yet another secret episode that never finished because it was way too disturbing.

On this episode: we’ll explore the blood smeared history of NCAA college football; you’ll learn the quickest way off a building; and we’ll discuss what to do if your brain catches on fire – figuratively, not literally.

This episode is a celebration of the history of Football ­– from humble origins, kicking a rock 2,000 years ago, to the pigskin, to the flying wedge retirement maneuver, to the Big Game disaster – which was and remains to this day, by a considerable margin, the deadliest sporting disaster in American history - and no one’s ever even heard of it! They should be doing be taking a quick knee for the victims to this day. But the worst part: imagine you are a rescue worker, and your job is to retrieve a body from one of our previous episodes. With the exception of the Byford Dolphin full-body spit take, this is the last one I would want to clean up after. I don’t want to just come out and say why, but let me ask if you’ve ever dropped a hotdog onto a scalding pan before. Thank you, no.

Celebrity guests include photo-memorographic President of the United States Teddy Roosevelt, enthusiastic injury artists Napoleon McCallum and Joe Theismann, the Little Rascals and Cirque de Soleil.

In this history changing episode: you’ll learn the death-cries of different presidents, we’ll learn how a cannon can have more than one business-end, and we’re going to play the worst game of ship-board body-part Twister that literally changed the course of American history forever.

This is one hell of a story. It has everything – love, political intrigue, explosions! But it also has shocking levels of personal greed, jealousy and consequence. It’s a larger-than-life story with real life consequences. We’ve done a few episodes now where people in authority makes rash or bizarre decisions that end up getting a lot of innocent people replaced by urns – but this one happened, and it effected the timeline. Oh, and it involves cannons.

Celebrity guests include more former Presidents than you could fight with two hands, blabbermouth socialite Dolly Madison, Swedish unicorn John Ericsson, Headless Horseman associate Ichabod Crane, would-be knife murderer John Potter, and exploded mill owner Cadwallader Washburn.

Together we’ve seen an awful lot of $@!# across time and space and it’s only natural that you would have questions – so here is your chance hear them answered.

Maybe learn something a little gross, maybe a little interesting.

This is my chance to publicly answer some of the friendly, odd and occasionally gross questions that feed in through our various social media channels. On today’s episode: we’ll find out just how many people love nuclear annihilation, we’ll debate impalements, and we’ll even comment on my ass.

If you’re curious to hear my take on things rattling around upstairs, feel free to shout out.

In this very special 1980’s themed first-time-in-Florida episode: we’ll find out how seatbelts help prevent blood stains; we’ll see what happens when you drive underwater; and we’ll have a special second safety segment covering Florida road etiquette.

It's always surprising to me how many different ways bridges can fail. It makes me feel like they should maybe offer prayer candles when you pull up to the foot of a bridge. This is a story so frightening to anyone who holds a driver’s license, that it’ll make you forget this story takes place in Florida. Not to fear, there’s not a lot of Florida stuff that happens. If I say “Florida man arrested for DUI after mistaking bank drive through for Taco Bell” or “Florida man worried about vampires, burns down his house” – remember, We’re going to cover some strange and awful stuff here, but I won’t pick on Florida. I wish I lived there myself.

Florida may hold a monopoly on bizarre behaviour, but it doesn’t hold the trademark. We’ll have to visit again one day.

On today’s episode: we’ll discuss the most blood-thirsty game of roulette ever. You’ll see what happens with 7,500 Dodge Caravans worth of fuel explodes within walking distance. And you’ll learn why you should never put your kids in a sewer, no matter how great of a parent you are.

The safety segment from today’s story is designed to teach you about rocket safety, but since I can’t teach you everything in one short podcast, my best advice is to relisten to every past episode, tell a friend, then quiz each other.

It's not everyday you get to watch a sideways rocket launch that performs an incomplete orbit over the countryside before landing nose first onto its own launch centre all in just 22 seconds. The safety segment from today’s story is designed to teach you about rocket safety, but since I can’t teach you everything in one short podcast, my best advice is to relisten to every past episode, tell a friend, then quiz each other.

Celebrity guests include missile designer Sergei Korolev, civilian astronaut Christa McAuliffe and some of the biggest testicles in Chinese State News history.

On this very special mini catch-up-sode: I’ll explain to you why this year earned a feces-themed minisode. I’ll do it while reminding you why Victorian England sucks so bad. And although you won’t learn a lot about feces, you will hear a lot about them.

I’ve returned from my self-isolation. I needed to work on my mental health for a bit to get my head straight. I wanted to offer my most heart-felt thanks to all those who reached out or donated during my hiatus. Words can’t express my gratitude, but I will try. You’ll have to listen. EDIT: That’s how I described it back then. I feel bad for that guy. He’s always had bad days, and getting this show out hasn’t always been easy for him. Mental health is a daily kind of thing, and I keep my head above it one day at a time.

Compared to the people in today’s episode, I am the King of the Moon – no worries in the world, dancing in the streets, fresh as a daisy. If you’ve listened long enough, you get the idea that there are a lot of ways a person can die that you’ve never considered before. Well I did not have to review all of them to know, that with the possible exception of the Byford Dolphin meat straw treatment, death by Pimlico Sewer is the last way I would want to go, final answer. At least the meat straw was fast.

Take care of yourself, sorry about all the feces, and enjoy the show.

On this episode: you’ll discover how bloodthirsty the French are about their favourite food; you’ll see what happens when you ride through a machine Charlie Chaplin style; and you’ll learn what to do if a limb ever became two dimensional.

I love that we got to visit Minnesota finally, and they really welcomed us with a bang. This is one of those stories where you start to get into it, you find out what happened, then you find out why it happened, and you’re immediately hit with – wait, that’s a thing that can happen? If you happen to love our “wait, that’s a thing that can happen?” episodes, have we got an episode for you. By the end of this story, you’ll learn a thing or two, feel a little “who knew”, and definitely walk away feeling certainly more grateful for that supermarket slab cake every couple of weeks instead of endless co-worker funerals.

Celebrity guests include Marie Antoinette, Betty Crocker, Charlie Chaplin, Cadwallader Colden Washburn, the Pillsbury Dough Boy and Count Chocula.

On this episode: we’ll discuss the blood thirstiest natural wonder in the world – and it’s not the one you’d think; you’ll learn what “coming to grief” means; and you’ll hear about people being dashed on rocks and drowned in every creative way possible.



This is our first visit to this natural wonder of the world. It won’t be our last. There are so many stories of disaster, tragedy and loss at Niagara Falls that we could spin this off as an entire season. But we chose this one harrowing story to begin our familiarization with the most powerful waterfall in North America. We’ll be visiting in the winter, and sometimes it really slows things down – makes it not so powerful at all. No, it trades all that majesty for the quiet potential of death. And no kidding, there is a tragic romance story here of love and sacrifice that makes Jack and Rose from Titanic look like they were on an episode of Cops.

Celebrity guests include poet Henry Longfellow, safe driver Charlie Church, professional barrel rider Annie Edison Taylor and a return visit from the Patron Saint of Barcelona, Saint Eulalia.

On a more serious note, if you or someone you care about is experiencing thoughts of self-harm or suicide, understand that you are not alone, and there are people ready to help. They’re only a Google search away. Or call the National Suicide Prevention Hotline at 1-800-273-TALK.

On this episode: we’ll discuss Britain’s atrocious people skills; you’ll hear “Occam’s Razor” used as a verb; you’ll hear about people Tetrised into debris, and what happens when your arms become a Halloween prop. 



how a simple day of gambling turned into one of the deadliest fires in Hong Kong’s history, all because someone decided it was okay for a prestigious, upper-class racing venue to have worse stands than the correlejas stands from our third episode. You know your concessions stands are awful when they kill people. I normally wouldn’t do stories where animals get hurt, and I still didn’t. Thankfully, no horses were killed or seriously injured in this episode – just hundreds and hundreds of people. Still, it’s nice that we got to finally visit Hong Kong.

On this episode: we’ll discuss the difference between evacuating your home and evacuating your body; we’ll find out why you don’t mix crude oil with electricity; and we’ll discover a weather phenomenon strange enough to remove your eyebrows.

Not everything can be quantified in Dodge Caravans. With some stories, the most telling thing about them isn’t how big or fast they were – it’s about the terrible unlikeliness of something like that ever happening in the first place. What terrible set of circumstance brought these two things together to interact in such as a way that I make an entire episode out of it. I did sit down and try to work out the odds working against this episode ever even happening in the first place, but it ended up somewhere near 1 in half a quadrillion. We’ve done multi-combo disasters before, but this has to be hands’ down, the most statistically unlikely multi-combo disaster we’ve ever discussed.

This story has “bad touch” written all over it.

On today’s special extra not-so-minisode: you will finally learn why you hate clowns so much, you’ll find out why early Toronto had so many teeth on the ground, and we’ll discuss fighting techniques included but not limited to: thumbing people’s eyeballs out, fish hooking the cheek, and biting people’s noses and ears off. 


This is a hometown episode for me, and although I can visit the scenes of this incredible story any day of the week, I ask myself why? On paper, this may seem like the silliest or least serious story we’ve ever told. Why? Just because it’s full of prostitutes and rubber noses and flying teeth? Well, it’s also got pitchforks and fire and attempted homicide. You’ll learn that firefighters and clowns are nothing to laugh at. You wouldn’t think they would make for natural enemies, but you’re going to learn a lot of weird things in this episode.

To me, the weirdest thing about this story is how a simple a brothel fight turns into one of the most pivotal moments in the social evolution of Canada as a country.

On this episode: you’ll hear about the worst bank deposit in aviation history; you’ll learn why you should never parachute without practice; and you’ll learn the medical effects of reverse-telescoping your legs into your abdomen.

When I say we’re about to rediscover the tale of America’s very first aeronautic disaster, you would think this would be better known. Especially after you find out it was a blimp! We spend so much time romanticizing all those people who burned to death on the Hindenburg. No one sheds a tear for those poor people who took the Goodyear Blimp to the bank that September morning. It was an incident as unusual as it was upsetting, and without this episode, it may have completely disappeared from the public conscience because it was almost immediately minimized by other events in a heavy news cycle.

But I won’t all be bad. We’ll talk about some more light-hearted things too. Like why today there are more astronauts than blimp pilots in the world. RIP the blimp industry.

On this episode: you’ll hear about people being reduced to burning tatters; you’ll learn why your $200 IPod Shuffle is more dangerous than lightning; and we’ll even maybe teach you the best seats for surviving a plane crash, sort of.

I wish I could see the faces of people discovering this frightening and unforeseen way that nature simply doesn’t care about your life goals or travel itinerary. It’s not everyday I get to bear bad news like this, but in the last episode I described how many invisible things can kill you, and today I get to spoil a whole new one you’ve never even heard of that can turn your simple flightplan into a roller coaster ride for survival. If you’re already skittish about flying, I sincerely apologize.
 
This is one of those episodes that remind us that the only thing that makes it bearable is the evolution of safety developed in its wake. This is of course, fairly cold comfort for those people who were turned into object lessons. A lot of people had to die so you can now land safely at airports without having to think about it. That said, good luck not thinking about it.

On this episode: there will be your typical mutilations, manglings and scissorings; you can try to imagine being repeatedly cut in half but in three dimensions; and we’ll play a game of Would You Rather fall 150 feet onto rocks, or find yourself pressed into mud and suffocated.

Today is one for the engineering disaster and “bad day at work” enthusiasts. Without spoiling anything, this is a good one if you’re afraid of heights, or water, or industrial accidents, or shoddy workmanship. It checks a lot of boxes. It also pays homage to a ridiculously overly-popular TikTok about the importance of not getting water up your butt.

Celebrity guest stars include French explorer Jacques Cartier, Prime Minister of Canada, Sir Wilfrid Laurier, celebrity engineer Theodore Cooper, Prince of Wales Edward the Eighth, and the Kahnawake Skywalkers.

On this episode: not a lot of heist stories turn into full-on nightmares, so this is our first sort of cross-over crime/disaster episode. We’re going to talk about non-sexual swelling and burning, we’re going to see a punch-up at a funeral, and by the end someone’s arm is going to bubble off.

There are a lot of invisible things that can harm or outright kill you. The cast of today’s story will find themselves in possession of some of the worst stuff imaginable – and it doesn’t go well. You’ll learn how the dangers of simple scavenging, combined with the effects of the disappointing Brazilian education system of the 1980s lead to this cautionary tale about skin care and life expectancy. If you think that sounds bad, wait till we talk about how barfing and butt stuff can foretell an impending apocalypse at home and abroad.

Celebrity guest mentions include the Ikea Monkey, 90s children’s TV icon, Captain Planet and the Planeteers, and Former Toronto Mayor and some-time drug enthusiast, Rob Ford.

On this episode: we’re going to explore a job so difficult, there are less than 400 people on the planet who can do it, you’re going to hear about the forced the expulsion of his thoracoabdominal cavity, and you’re going to hear the term meat balloon used contextually.

This one came as a request from some of our most depraved listeners, and this is hands down the most existentially horrifying episode we’ve done to date. As they say, it would be easier for a fat man to pass through the head of a needle than for the cast of today’s story to make it to heaven without making you throw up.

The events of this accident takes place in a fraction of time between moments so severe, it’ll be hard to understand. No less difficult than trying to try to imagine what became of the victims, who without spoiling anything, look like something out of that annual La Tomatina tomato-based street fight they hold in Spain. The safety segment should just be cleaning tips.

Celebrity guest stars include James Cameron, Jaques Picard, World Record holders Herbert Nitsch and Ahmed Gabr, and Nils Olav III the Penguin.

On this episode: you’re going to hear about people crushed under concrete two feet thick; a particularly instructional kind of trauma; and the generous help of volunteers trying to straighten out twisted limbs to make people appear more comfortable. 



I don’t want to say this episode stinks, but it’s gassier than you could imagine. Fortunately, or unfortunately depending on your point-of-view, this is the kind of gas you can’t smell. Not to spoil things, but we will definitely spend a minute talking about propane safety, and why it’s so important for public events to start on time. I promise, this episode is actually about something so innocent and fun, you’ll forget about all the screaming the compression.

Ironically, or all the many things you’ll learn about today, we’re going to try and convince you smelling farts is good for you. But more importantly, who would have thought a Halloween Holidays on Ice Capades would turn into the most deadly accident in the history of the State of Indiana, and one of the deadliest indoor explosions in U.S. history. Special celebrity guest stars include The Beatles!

On this episode: you’re going to hear about people performing acrobatics through a cacophony of sharpness. And debatably, it only gets worse from there. And it all takes place in the dark. We have had plenty of episodes in the “bad day at work” category, but this one, woof. 


We should count this in our suite of Bad Commute episodes – stories so awful that they can’t help you feel better about your regular commute, almost guaranteed. I start this episode questioning your experience on your local transit, especially if you have a local subway or metro. When most people think of the NYC subway system, they think about muggings and flashings and maybe the occasional stabbing. They don’t think about getting their transit pass permanently confiscated by God.

In a lot of disasters, as time goes by, people slowly tend to forget, and they become anecdotes lost to time. NYC didn’t want to risk it, so they buried and renamed everything around it just to be absolutely sure so no one would ever have to think about the Malbone Street Disaster of 1918 again. At least until this show came out.

On the plus side, to make you a safer commuter, we’ve teamed up with the New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) to make sure you’re prepared for anything from light groping, to some MMA-style grappling, to grand larceny for the next time you find yourself being the target of a violent subway hobo.

It’s the Malbone Street Disaster of 1918 On this episode:...
On this episode: you’re going to hear about people performing acrobatics through a cacophony of sharpness. And debatably, it only gets worse from there. And it all takes place in the dark. We have had plenty of episodes in the “bad day at work” category, but this one, woof.

On this episode: you’re going to hear about just about every bad thing that can happen behind the wheel; you’re not going to hear a lot of impact injuries; and there will be fire and people will suffocate as many ways as they can.

Imagine being sealed into a narrow tunnel carved through a mountain. Fire and smoke and screams are everywhere. Darkness closes in as the temperature rises. Every breath becomes agony, and you still have a mile and half to go. Commuting is the worst. This is our first time in Afghanistan, and we’re here in time to take in some of the Soviet Union’s disastrous invasion during the 1980s. The USSR will become a staple of disaster on this show, but let's not get ahead of ourselves.

We’ve certainly had issues on mountains on this show. We’ve frozen to death on them. We’ve been buried by their avalanches. We’ve fallen off them. We’ve even flown into the side of them, but we’ve never had the opportunity to crawl into the heart of one and suffocate terribly in one until now. Finding new and interesting places to die has always been a staple of this show, and the Salang Tunnel Disaster of 1982 certainly pays that off. Dark, suffocating, smelly, sooty, claustrophobic. And don’t forget all the fire. And the tanks. And the guns. It sounds pretty bad when I say it like that, but it’ll make you feel better about your commute, guaranteed.

On this episode: you’re going to hear a lot about bosses and employees and employee rights and work-life balance, and in our history of bad day at work episodes, this one is special. That said, you’re going to hear about people tetrised into debris and then set on fire. This isn’t one of our greatest pick-me-up episodes, but we’ll try to have some fun along the way.

We’ve talked about some emotionally draining and painful disasters, but having researched hundreds of disasters, I was touched by the level of humanity displayed in this one. What we’re about to discuss has been called “the Worst Industrial Accident in Massachusetts History” and one of the worst in the history of American industry – which is saying a lot.

On this episode: this is the first story we’ve done where the resulting damage can be compared to laser damage from space; so you know you’re going to hear about a lot of people Hereditaried and bisected; and a whole host of things so awful most didn’t make it into the show.

We’re talking tornados, but we’re not focusing on the science. We are focusing on an unusual and little-understood tornadic ability that freaked me the hell out to learn about, and I think it can do the same for you. Excitingly enough, this is our first tornado disaster, and we picked a hell of a one to start. Enjoy one of the most powerful storms in the history of recorded meteorology.

Celebrity guests include: world record holders, Matt Suter and Usain Bolt; pioneer of earthquake measurement, Tetsuya Teddy Fujita; fast food magnate and creator of Wendy’s, Dave Thomas; popcorn super ghost that haunts us today, Orville Redenbacher; Roger Edwards of the National Weather Service; and God - or at least God’s Finger.

On this episode: we’re going to explore several new ways to die, most of them bloodless; you’re going to find out how to out-smart one of the smartest creatures on the planet; and this will be the second time you’ll hear Kool-Aid Man used as a verb.

We’re going to fly all the way to India again. The last time we were here, we nearly died, a bunch of different ways. But I promise there will be no stairs or coconuts or electricity in this episode. No, we’re going to come face-to-face with a danger you might not expect. You’ll learn how dangerous elephants can be compared to other actual predators.

On any given day, these gentle beasts would be appalled at the idea of hurting another creature, but under all the right circumstances, and you’ll get learn how much they can bench press with their nose. An adult Elephant is capable of lifting up to 600-700 pounds, which is far more than enough force to remove your genitals. So you know, it’s about 110 pounds of force.

Celebrity guests include: billionaire, Tom Siebel; boxer, Mike Tyson; Olympian, Usain Bolt; Kana the Tiger; and three nameless blind men of ancient Indian lore.

You will hear about people being ejected into space by their faces, and turned into paté by meteors, but not everything you hear today will necessarily gel with your understanding of how science or human behaviour is supposed to work.

On the plus side, you will learn your survival odds after being jettisoned into space, so that’s always nice. You’ll learn how space shuttles, asteroids and even simple geography do and do not work. And you’ll learn way more about your anus and urethra than you ever knew.

Celebrity guests include: urine soaked astronauts and American heroes, Alan Sheppard & John Glenn; human mountain and actor, Michael Clarke Duncan; and sad Bat Man, Ben Affleck.

On this episode: you will find out how rockets work, and how they don’t work; you’ll hear about people vaporized into flaming mists and others faced with a kind of toxic shock syndrome you don’t hear about in commercials.

Today's story is another in a long line of bad day at work episodes, and you are also getting the chance to ride-along and spend the day with one of the worst managers in history, so enjoy that. We'll also discuss a whole bunch of not-to-do’s about toxic chemical exposure and your skin care routine; and you’ll learn a few German words for jerks who had it coming. 

It’s a disaster so stupendous, it changed the course of human history and no one was allowed to know about it. That sounds like of a historical boast and a political thriller had a baby. Well maybe they did. Enjoy the episode. Bring a fire extinguisher. And an umbrella. And a gas mask. Or a full body respirator suit if you’ve got one.

This is not normally the podcast you play around kids.or while eating, but today’s episode is going to be different. No blood loss. No body count. What happens in today’s story is unbelievably dramatic, but no one gets their face lasered off, or turned into steam, or crushed to death or any of the horrible endings people face repeatedly through the history of this show. And the only screaming will be with fear and shock, not because lost a limb or watched a loved-one explode.

On this episode: you will learn that math is hard, that gravity don’t care about your feelings; you'll learn how to survive a fall without going to parachute school; and the best practices for outwitting a lake that is trying to eat you. All of that PLUS one of the biggest work place screw up stories of all time.

Celebrity guests include: Joe Jackson (not the one you’re thinking of); actor & listener of the show, Brad Pitt; and confounding magicians and TV personalities, Penn & Teller.

On this episode: you will not hear me mispronounce Trinitrotoluene for half an hour, but I’ll probably mispronounce it anyway. You will also hear me describe people losing their heads. Or parts of their heads. Or limbs. Or lives. But definitely bowel control.

World War One was a real boom time across Europe, which can be easy to forget – unless you were near Silvertown after the war and your ears won’t stop ringing. This is the story of the single largest explosion to ever occur in the United Kingdom - which is saying a lot. Amazingly, because today’s disaster involved the military, no one heard about it for fifty years. It got a little hushed up for reasons of National Security, which doesn’t bring a lot of comfort to those left in its wake scratching their partial heads. It’s a perfectly gory example of the needs of the many vs the needs of the view in this explosive episode of Doomsday.

On this episode: we recounts the most statistically-unlikely disaster in history, complete with TWO Safety Sections (I believe that is a first in our podcast's history), but you’ll also hear about people referred to as "gravy without lumps", and flesh described as "scattered". You’ll also hear about two Guinness World Records, and a celebrity cameo from Nelson Mandela himself. You’ll also learn the best possible way to survive a hypothetical free fall in an elevator, and one of those Safety Sections covers panic attacks. You know it's a bad day when we have to break out advice for panic attacks for the first time. 

It's always good to remind ourselves how much time we spend or waste worrying about your odds of dying from the random things. We always worry about the wrong things. Vending machines are more likely to kill you than sharks, and today's episode introduces a new danger you may not have worried about before, and I admit I'll be kind of implicit in unlocking it as a new fear.

Make sure your travel vaccines are up-to-date and don’t forget to pack a night mask and noise cancelling headphones in your carry-on because we are returning to Africa.

This episode has everything: fish farts, exploding lakes, tennis pro Vitas Gerulaitis, ancient African spirits, and a 0.0075% survival rate. You’ll also hear about people’s eyes popping out of their sockets while their skin blisters from within, and others who just drop dead like their strings were cut.

This is one of those episodes where you will also learn how to protect your family against the non-spoiler cause of this disaster, but very much left with feelings of “the Earth can do that?”. You’ll actually say that a lot. Especially once you have to start worrying about the ocean exploding. Sorry not sorry about the loss of sleep, but that is the show. I’ll make you safer – you figure out how to live with the on-going emotional consequences. You have been warned.

By the time you finish this episode, you won’t be most people. Make sure your travel vaccines are up-to-date and don’t forget to pack a night mask and noise cancelling headphones in your carry-on...be most people. Make sure your travel vaccines are up-to-date and don’t forget to pack a night mask and noise cancelling headphones in your carry-on because we are returning to Africa.

This episode has everything: fish farts, exploding lakes, tennis pro Vitas Gerulaitis, ancient African spirits, and a 0.0075% survival rate. You’ll also hear about people’s eyes popping out of their sockets while their skin blisters from within, and others who just drop dead like their strings were cut.

This is one of those episodes where you will also learn how to protect your family against the non-spoiler cause of this disaster, but very much left with feelings of “the Earth can do that?”. You’ll actually say that a lot. Especially once you have to start worrying about the ocean exploding. Sorry not sorry about the loss of sleep, but that is the show. I’ll make you safer – you figure out how to live with the on-going emotional consequences. You have been warned.

We say the only value of any disaster is what can be learned to safeguard people in the future, but in this case it was very much a matter of people dancing on the lip of the volcano. We’re going to talk about a disaster so phenomenal it was erased from history.

On this episode: we will describe shattered bodies with blue faces, people having their insides turned into their outsides, and pieces of people and equipment intermingled. I will also premiere a secret psychic force I’ve been quietly developing in my down time. Celebrity cameos include Franz Ferdinand and Utzi the Iceman.

On this episode: As promised, we make our inglorious return with a welcome back minisode about the most unlikely plane crash of all time. A disaster so bizarre it actually became the worst case scenario in ICAO Aviation testing.

We are headed to Africa to answer the question: what has eighty teeth, bad breath, and sucks at flying. We always endeavour to make you smarter and more aware in a way that could potentially save your life one day, but this episode is just bizarre, even by our standards.

Put on your dancing shoes and update your will. We’re heading to Bangkok to ring in the new year.

On this episode: we will describe flaming scalps and skin sloughing off and crush injuries and dislocated spines - so yes, things will not go well - but they will make you smarter and more aware.

Today’s story promises to be unforgettable – so dig out your dancing shoes, party whistles and funeral kazoos - this is the New Years’ Baby of disaster stories....
Put on your dancing shoes and update your will. We’re heading to Bangkok to ring in the new year.

On this episode: we will describe flaming scalps and skin sloughing off and crush injuries and dislocated spines - so yes, things will not go well - but they will make you smarter and more aware. Anything we can do to potentially one-day save a life, and our work is done. On that note, check your smoke detector batteries.

A lot of ignorant but pioneering scientists with brave ideas and bubbling skin had to die for us to learn how dangerous today’s topic can be. Yes, this is another in our on-going series on nuclear mishaps and mayhem.

Without spoiling anything, I can say that nuclear bombs have been struck by lightning, survived plane crashes, burned to the point of melting, smashed into the ground at super sonic speeds, dropped from an aircraft parked on a runway, crushed by oceanic depths and blown apart by the missiles they were attached to. If nothing else, it’s a testament to how well they are built and designed.

On this episode: we’re going to learn what it takes to turn a full size adult into a briquette. Why Jane Eyre stunk, and the best way to saw up a dead horse. I’ll give you a hint - time and bacteria work better than cutting tools alone. Work smarter, not harder.

Well, would you rather be locked away for life against your will for no good reason and have Jack the Ripper as a cellie, do take your chances trying to escape during the worst fire you’ve ever seen? How many places do you know that have too many clients, spread over too large an area, being cared for by too few staff, with too little money and crumbling infrastructure? Sounds like a recipe for disaster, right? But seriously, we look down our noses at health care from a century ago like we’re so great. We’re not perfect. No one is. But as imperfect as it might be, mental health care has never been better.

On this episode: we are going to learn why fighter jets – graceful and aerobatic though they may be – make terrible ground vehicles. You’ll also learn how to say “run for your lives” in Ukrainian. 

We'll be celebrating unlucky episode number thirteen by describing burning jet fuel and debris spraying into a crowd, and something described as behaving “like a human lawn mower”. We’re considering putting out barf bags for our beloved Doomsday Cult Members, and this is the episode that inspired the idea.

So, Air Shows huh? Nothing really funny or fun to say about them. They have a pretty good safety record, but on those rare occasions where something does go wrong, they are pure nightmare fuel. This was our first visit to Ukraine, and we wouldn’t be back till our Chernobyl Christmasode. A lot has changed obviously since we first recorded this back in April of 2021. Ukraine is a country that really knows how to take a punch, and it was the country of my father’s birth.

In this episode: you will hear about people screaming for their lives – nothing weird there. You’ll hear cheese grater used as a verb – that’s kind of new. All in all, this is our palate cleanser episode. You could pretty much play this one while eating or around kids – but there is a brief mention of masturbation – so there’s that.Fantastic is defined as imaginative, extraordinary, irrational, wild, absurd, implausible, far-fetched and unbelievable. We promised fireworks, and we hope you’ll agree, today’s story was short but fantastic.

I work to keep the show varied, by geography, by era, by disaster type - and this was the most interesting but unexpected vehicular disaster I could offer. You drive into a cloud of snow, and literally anything could happen to you inside. This was our first “blind” disaster in that way, so when I say “vary the show”, this was the episode that challenged the very nature of chaos. And two more things. I’ve survived a few disaster-types in my life, and this kind of highway calamity was the very first. Second, this is technically the 10th episode because I was a part of an April Fools program to attract more listeners by swapping episodes with another random podcast.

In this episode: we will describe a deep fryer the size of a department store and flesh dripping from bodies like wax from a candle. In fact, this is the first episode we’ve done that requires two separate safety segments.

This was another in our long line of bad-day-at-work stories, but also in the thread of disasters that could not have happened without a series of contributing factors all falling perfectly into line. We really played up fire safety. It’s because this is the first episode where all the ingredients for disaster are right there in your kitchen.

I had no idea how many of listeners were industrial disaster fanatics until this episode. The thing was, because the show was so new still, new listeners were amassing by the week and much of the feedback I got was applauding and/or questioning how gory and frightening and unexpected this show was to listen to compared to other disaster shows. Humour plus gore plus safety was a strange pill to swallow, but you’re all here now, so I think it was a good formula to bet on.

In this episode: we will describe a deep fryer the size of a department store and flesh dripping from bodies like wax from a candle. In fact, this is the first episode we’ve done that requires two separate safety segments.

This was another in our long line of bad-day-at-work stories, but also in the thread of disasters that could not have happened without a series of contributing factors all falling perfectly into line. We really played up fire safety. It’s because this is the first episode where all the ingredients for disaster are right there in your kitchen.

I had no idea how many of listeners were industrial disaster fanatics until this episode. The thing was, because the show was so new still, new listeners were amassing by the week and much of the feedback I got was applauding and/or questioning how gory and frightening and unexpected this show was to listen to compared to other disaster shows. Humour plus gore plus safety was a strange pill to swallow, but you’re all here now, so I think it was a good formula to bet on.

On this episode: we’re going to talk about people awkwardly Tetrised around debris in the most claustrophobic situation possible, and others who compressed to the height of a business card.Fun fact: the actual fear of trains is called Siderodromophobia. Whether your fear is about crashing, or the lack of control, or they trigger other phobias like claustrophobia, social phobia or germ phobia, the easily rememberable and pronounceable Siderodromophobia has got you covered.

This was the first rail based episode, and they hold a special place in some people’s hearts. I’m told it’s natural for the people in your life to not pay too much attention when you start podcasting, but this was the first episode where a friend had to stop me and ask exactly what I was doing. It was the anecdote about the passenger crushed to the height of a partially crushed pop can. It was also our first visit in Australia, and I’m glad we got here so early into the show’s history. Australians make up our fourth largest audience so I’m always happy to give back.

In this episode: you will hear about some pretty casual olde-timey racism, the strange tale of a man swimming after a torpedo in hopes they could blow up together, and the dietary habits of sharks.It’s not every day we get to do an episode that contains shipwrecks, carnage, blind mistakes and untold heroism. But also, we warned you that “bad day at work” would become a pretty common theme in this podcast. We think we over delivered on this episode.

In this episode: we learn of delirious sailors adrift in a life boat who find an onion bobbing in the water. It was because of this anecdote that many years later, I would do a video for Patreons comparing the experience of eating a purple vs. yellow onion like an apple. The verdict was “who cares” as it turns out, you eat that much uncooked onion in a single sitting will destroy your ability or desire to taste onion ever again. It’s been five months since I did this and I still look at them sideways.

This was also an episode that kind of tested my ground rules for the show. I don’t cover acts of crime or terrorism or military misadventure, but I made a strong exception in this case because the victims were military - not the cause.

In this episode: we describe people being electrocuted by goat blood soup. You will hear about an awful lot of death, and explosions, and fire, but don’t worry, because most of the deaths are caused by smothering and suffocation. If you remembered that crowds are more dangerous than sharks, you get a gold star. We are trained to fear things that are scary and flashy, but when you really boil down in a disaster like this, its mundane circumstances building on top of each other that you should really be looking out for. 

I didn’t know if I’d ever feel the cruel joy I felt after our St. Pierre Bioswarm episode – not because of the gore, but because of the relentlessness. Explosions after electrocutions after tramplings made this one just as disturbing, and claustrophobic, and hard to imagine. It was the episode that made me want to find those indescribable disasters that you could actually feel on your skin. I do apologize for any mispronunciations, but my Hindi is as bad as my Urdu (local languages).

On this episode: we cover our most claustrophobic episode to date, combined with the most dramatic weight-loss strategy you've ever heard of 

This was our very first weather-related disaster. Not a natural disaster per se, but a combination of nature's fury combined with poor architectural choices in the past and poor overall decision making in the present. Without any of those three, this would not have happened – and I was reminded of this story very clearly not long ago during a screening of Captain America: Brave New World at a theatre in Wenatchee, Washington. Obviously it's the wrong Washington, but it still perked my ears because it was a winter showing and the roof collapsed onto the seating area. Thankfully, no one died. Not like the 98 in this episode, which on the one hand sounded gratuitous, but after the 30,000 who perished during our St. Pierre Volcanic Bio-Swarm of 1902 episode, nothig seems gratuitous.

In this episode: you will hear about people superheating to five times the temperature of the surface of the sun before exploding. You’ll learn what a terrible job TV and movies have done teaching you about explosions, and you’ll also learn how to say stop, drop and roll in latin.

I would really like to see the stained glass fresco depicting the events of this story. Also, spoiler, Stop Drop and Roll in Latin is Prohibere, et stilla volmine.

The first three episodes were kind of eye-opening, even for me. Each seemed kinda implausible with gore and horror and awful creatures gnawing and poking through your skin – but this took that disbelief and made it somehow crueler – God wanted these people dead. People were spatula'd out of church towers. When Dieties want you dead, you know it's a special episode. This was also the story that helped mold the show and give it more historical depth. I set out to say I wanted to travel around the world and through time. So far we've been to Idaho, the Caribbean, South America and Italy, but we also travelled 250 years in the past. The older the episode setting, the more difficult it can be to find sources, and I remember having to translate a lot of handwritten ye-olde Italian to give this story detail and interest.

In this episode: you will hear about people superheating to five times the temperature of the surface of the sun before exploding. You’ll learn what a terrible job TV and movies have done teaching you about explosions, and you’ll also learn how to say stop, drop and roll in latin.

I would really like to see the stained glass fresco depicting the events of this story. Also, spoiler, Stop Drop and Roll in Latin is Prohibere, et stilla volmine.

The first three episodes were kind of eye-opening, even for me. Each seemed kinda implausible with gore and horror and awful creatures gnawing and poking through your skin – but this took that disbelief and made it somehow crueler – God wanted these people dead. People were spatula'd out of church towers. When Dieties want you dead, you know it's a special episode. This was also the story that helped mold the show and give it more historical depth. I set out to say I wanted to travel around the world and through time. So far we've been to Idaho, the Caribbean, South America and Italy, but we also travelled 250 years in the past. The older the episode setting, the more difficult it can be to find sources, and I remember having to translate a lot of handwritten ye-olde Italian to give this story detail and interest.

Subscribe to rediscover some of the most traumatic, bizarre and awe-inspiring but largely unheard-of disasters from throughout human history and around the world.

This first season you will hear about the worst groin injury in the recorded history of medical science, people compressed to the height of a business card, preheated to the temperature of the sun, electrocuted by coconuts, and phrases like “the plague of horror had been cleared away by cleansing mercy of the volcano”.

This is not the podcast you play around kids, or while eating, or in mixed company; but as long as you find yourself a little more historically engaged and learn something that could potentially save your life, our work is done.
