I'll start it off feel free to add...

Ooops. Martha I told you those cinder blocks were not going to hold!!

Small Korean tanker. (Not that the nationality has anything to do with the ability to screw it up).... A ship this size won't normally have an inert gas system. Reportedly, they were tank cleaning. I think 6 crew were killed. Bad scene.
