This brings to mind to the late '70s when they first introduced 1.5ltr bottles of Coke/Pepsi etc.
Reportedly the (then) glass bottles were over-pressurised. Some exploded (allegedly) killing 3 people in the first year, before switching to plastic.
I wish ill on no-one, but really, if you are killed by an exploding pop bottle or seniour-scooter, don't you think your time was already up and this was the universe's last-ditch effort to get rid of you?
