In this episode, I explore the tragic events of the 1981 Hyatt Regency Walkway collapse in Kansas City. What started as a celebration turned into a nightmare, as two elevated walkways gave way, killing 114 people and injuring hundreds more. We break down the engineering failures, the aftermath, and how this disaster reshaped building regulations across the U.S. Join me as we uncover the causes behind one of the most devastating structural collapses in American history and its lasting impact.
