I believe I can flyyyyyyy

We will remind, about 21:00 in the center of Anapa at the intersection of Krymskaya and Krasnoarmeyskaya streets there was a fatal accident. According to the regional traffic police, a 57-year-old cab driver did not give way to a BMW when turning left. As a result of the accident, the cab driver died, in the second car suffered an eight-year-old boy.

Eyewitnesses immediately said that the BMW car was exceeding the speed limit. Later in the Network appeared a video with the moment of the accident, filmed on street cameras. The footage shows the cab driver starting to turn left at a flashing green traffic light. At that moment, a German foreign car crashes into him at high speed.

The impact was so strong that the cab car flipped sideways and rolled on the asphalt for several meters, sparking. Then the car turned over on its wheels again. The BMW flew into a tree and a road sign - perhaps it saved the girl, who was standing near the crosswalk and was preparing to cross the road. After the collision, she managed to run backwards.

Happened on September 25, 2015 in Saratov, Russia [51°32'09.4"N 45°58'26.0"E]

23 years old man from Slavgorodskoe village in Belgorod Oblast was driving MAZ truck (license plates from Voronezh Oblast) carrying starch through Saratov.

Likely due to not knowing the area he found himself in the area of Kumysnaya Polyana, even though it is prohibited for truck to drive there.

Kumysnaya Polyana is located on a hill. While driving downhill driver realised that the brakes didn't work. MAZ was quickly gaining speed.

The truck crashed into a nine stories high residential building located at Novouzenskaya Street 180B. The driver died on spot.

Sorry if this has already been on here before, i couldn't find it on here!!

The pilot flew too close to a crane and a main rotor clipped the cable hanging down with the hook. This shattered the rotor blade and the helicopter immediately went down since you need the main rotor to auto-rotate down which is the only safe way to make crash landing with a helicopter.

This crash happened on 2 October 1986 after the sarcophagus was well under way - it was finished in November 1986. The shattered core, thus, probably had already been substantially shielded by prior drops of lead, concrete and boron and radiation most likely was not a cause of the crash, just misjudging distance on the part of the pilot.

The crane was not in place in late April early May 1986 as shown in this photo from the Washington Post (while undated, this clearly was taken before the start of the Sarcophagus construction and after the ten day fire was out)

From July to November 1986, a concrete-made sarcophagus over 50 meters high and measuring 200 m by 200 m was built. It covered the 4th power unit of the Chernobyl NPP and halted the discharges of radioactive substances into the atmosphere. During the sarcophagus construction, an accident occurred: on October 2 a Mi-8 helicopter got entangled with its blades in a crane cable and crashed onto the NPP's territory, killing four crew members.
