    The most avoidable catastrophe in racing was Le Mans 1955 when a car got clipped and flew into a wall and large debris was flown into the stands, killing 84 people and injuring 180+. The car, made of magnesium, exploded after flipping onto the wall. The spectator deaths could've been avoided by ACTUALLY HAVING A FENCE AROUND THE STANDS. It was only defended by some hay.

    Husky stadium in March 1987 as they built the upper north stands. Just the framework collapsed and they still managed to complete it in time for the season

    At Charlotte Motor Speedway in 2000 after what was then the Winston (NASCAR’s Cup All-Star Race), a pedestrian bridge around the area of Turn 4 collapsed between the track and a parking lot which injured well over 100 departing spectators. It was found that the bridge builder used an imporper additive to help cure the concrete faster, which in fact due to a certain chemical in it corroded the steel cables and caused the collapse.

    Video Idea-
    A fan day for either of the major U.S sports(NHL,NFL,NBA or MLB). This fan day would allow fans to be more incorporated with the game. The fans could created new uniforms(designs or colors and maybe a re-imagined logo too). The fans could even come up with or call plays. I think this game being in the preseason would be the best.
    I think this would be an awesome idea to explore in a video.
    Keep up with the great content !

    Here in Brazil we had the case of the Estádio Olímpico Nilton Santos in Rio de Janeiro. In 2013 (six years after his inauguration) the stadium was closed because a report showed that wind speeds of 39 mph could've lead to the roof fall. After two years of reconstruction the stadium was reopened to the public.

    While playing cards (err...studying) in my dorm at Michigan State, I watched a roof section on cranes collapse on the Breslin Center as it was being built in the late 80s. Thankfully, nobody was killed there but it looked just like the accident at Miller Park.

    maybe the biggest blessing for stadiums is the high chance of them being empty, The biggest enemy is that when they are full you have possibly up to a mid sized city of people depending on the engineering of one structure.

    The Miller Stadium was actually not an engineering failure persay, but rather a cost/time savings act. They knew the winds were higher than what the had been calculated for that lift. They were behind schedule and decided to go ahead and lift the roof section. Which turned into a gigantic wing that created lift, and then floated up, then suddenly drifted down and pulled the crane over.

    I am an American building ice rinks in Germany, and the first thing I learned is to NEVER let a German design or build an ice rink. In 2017 they opened a semi-roofed arena in Schierke, and despite winning all sorts of architecture awards, they immediately discovered that it couldn't safely withstand typical winter weather conditions for the area due to a number of fatal design flaws and the improper use of materials. Nobody has been injured (yet), but it will cost hundreds of thousands of Euros to fix.

    A stadium in England caught fire during a football game. Can't remember the Club. Video is on CZcams. It was a massive fire. Wasn't anything related to how it was built I don't think but maybe you could have added it for a bonus.
    Edit: The Club was Bradford
