Ya have to keep an eye out for more than Teslas going out of control or spontaneously combusted. Look for more infrastructure losses like pipelines, oil refinery fires, power outages without weather, abnormal building collapses, and even bridges. Did you know Nigeria has had 60 building collapses just in the last couple years? With another 90 since 2005. Significant increase since solar cycle 25 began.

How could I forget about battery storage facility fires. Lithium batteries are prone to thermal runaway when exposed to EMI. Of course this is also abnormal plane crashes where theres sudden engine failure.

Here, too, Scarry hints at the role EMI may have played. Certain details, she asserts, are consistent with EMI: disconnect of the plane’s autopilot, the steep dive, the split elevators, and the engines shutting down

Steep dive makes me think of the airplane crash in China that did just that into the mountains. Also I believe autopilot was disengaged just before it began to dive.

Does Musk have a yacht? Looks like they are having EMI issues like pretty much everything else. Seems to be no safe form of transportation. Hopefully for Musk his newest plane is shielded sufficiently.

Anyone following the yacht market on social media will be used to the depressing frequency of images/videos of yachts on fire and it's fair to say that fire is by some margin the most common cause of loss in yacht claims we are involved with.

The most prevalent cause of fires on yachts which we see are engine room issues, electrical fault, human error or some combination of the three.

An area of ongoing debate, not only in the yacht space but more broadly in the transport industry as a whole, is the risk associated with lithium-ion batteries. It was raised in one of the panel discussions ("Fire! Fire! Claims Mount up") at this year's Marine Claims International conference in Dublin. As the responses generated under a recent article on Li-ion batteries show, views are divided and there are real misconceptions surrounding the issue.
