   Re: the coffee case = "The size of the award caught the media's attention, but overshadowed the rest of the story."
   Unfortunately, so did you. People point to this as an example of the absurdity of the American legal system, but what many don't realize is the award wasn't based on someone "not realizing HOT coffee is hot," but rather the fact that McDonald's was heating their coffee to a dangerously unsafe temperature because it allowed them to use cheaper coffee beans, as the temperature obscured the cheap taste of their coffee.

   Take Care of Maya was heartbreaking. The mother literally ended her life so that her daughter's care would continue because the system would not let go of the idea that she was abusing her daughter.

   I thought of the case of the surgeon removing the wrong leg when I had a knee replacement. My surgeon came in for a final check before I went into the OR and he signed my knee in bright red marker. It was a reminder which knee was being operated on as well as indicating to the OR staff that yes, he did do a final consult. Funny but great checks and balances.

   That you even included the McDonald's coffee case is absurd and invalidates this entire list. They were warned by health officials to not serve the coffee that hot, she originally only wanted her medical bills paid, and the high amount that people (McD's) say was absurd was calculated from 1 day's worth of selling coffee.

    McDonalds heated their coffee 30-40 degrees hotter than the competition and had a history of burn complaints. It went to trial because she needed more money for her injuries than they usually paid. (She requested around $20k and they would only offer $8k). Justice for Stella!!!

    Yareni Rios got 8.5 million when, after being pulled over by police, was put into the back of a police car that was parked on train tracks and had a train hit the police car at full speed.

    The police were following Rios after a road rage incident and the officer in the first vehicle turned on their lights to signal Rios to stop. Once Rios saw that the police wanted her to stop she waited to do so once she passed some train tracks ahead. The first officer who stopped her stopped on the railroad tracks and other officers stopped before the tracks behind the first police car. There is a video from that second car of the officers putting Rios into the first car then, minutes later, a train horn can be heard moments before the train barrelled into the car Rios was in. According to reports, officers could hear Rios screaming from the car but ignored her until they heard the train literally plow into the car at which point all the officers tried to pull Rios from the wreckage.

    The McDonald's lawsuit happened because McDonald's refused to cover her medical bills when she asked. And it came out during discovery she wasnt the 1st person to be physically burned by the coffee. Just the most badly injured.
    With the coffee being served by McDonalds having a temperature well above the temperature at which human skin burns, like spill it on your arm and get 2nd degree burns.

    Thank you for acknowledging the families that Boston Children’s hospital has harmed. One family had gone for a second opinion, decided to go back to the first hospital to have surgery there, so BCH stole their child and operated with no approval. They claimed the parents were trying to kill the baby… they aren’t gods and they need to acknowledge that.

    Also appreciated the way CRPS was mentioned. You used the correct name, described it accurately, and threw no shade on Mayas previous treatments. As a CRPS patient of 21 years, people are rarely accurate like that.

    Poor Stella, she literally got burned by a scalding hot cup of coffee and people still think that the lawsuit she filed against McDonald's was frivolous!

    The pilot, who was new, did exactly what he'd been trained to do in that situation. It wasn't the pilot's misjudgment. It was the instructor's poor training, and the designer's poor design.
    No control input should damage the airframe below maneuvering speed.

    I had to have surgery on my left foot. In pre-op the nurse came in to mark the foot I was getting fixed. I told her that I didn't think it would be a problem. I pulled my covers up so she could see I didn't have a right foot.
    Still, she marked the foot anyway.
    The surgeon commented he though that was funny. If he had tried to cut open the wrong foot the screaming would have stopped him. I added that would only happen if the doctor missed the fact the foot was on the floor, not the operating table.

    2:47 see this part makes me upset. She asked McDonald’s to pay for just her medical bills caused by coffee that caused third degree burns. Then McDonald’s runs a smear campaign against her after she was awarded more. Now this “informational” video spreads that false information further. They should really do more research :(. Kinda disappointed in them right now.

    The McDonald's coffee lawsuit came only after she asked McDonalds to cover her medical bills and they refused. She sued to cover her medical bills. She never sued for that much money.

    You buried the lead on Stella Liebeck. McDonald’s had been repeatedly warned but public health officials and lawyers that they were serving coffee that was dangerously hot, well above industry standards, and that there was been numerous other injuries before Stella. And that she only sued to get them to pay her medical expenses, but the jury ultimately decided that a harsher penalty was warranted against McDonalds corporate and awarded Stella the equivalent of what McDonald’s earned from coffee sales across the country. Then McDonald’s ran a smear campaign against Stella to avoid negative PR. They ruined that woman’s life because they wanted to keep disregarding safety measures in order to sell more coffee.
