We start high above the Earth with Skylab, America's first orbital workshop, which fell victim to unexpected solar activity and atmospheric drag, leading to a fiery reentry that gripped the world. Back on solid ground, we investigate the "Walkie-Talkie" skyscraper in London, a design marvel that unintentionally turned city streets into dangerous wind tunnels. Then, we head to France for a mistake of epic proportions: a €15 billion fleet of state-of-the-art trains that were physically too wide for over 1,300 station platforms. Finally, we explore the haunting remains of Craco, Italy—an ancient hilltop sanctuary undone not by invaders, but by a modern plumbing project that triggered a slow-motion landslide.
