Hyatt Regency Disaster[edit]

The current text describes the Hyatt Regency disaster as the worst in US history other than 9/11. This is absurd. The Hyatt skywalks collapsed in a scenario that was entirely within the design parameters for that building, and was due to epic incompetence. The World Trade towers collapsed because two jets were flown into them, which was outside of the design parameters. The Hyatt skywalk collapse remains the worst architectural disaster in US history, and should be identified that way.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.160.131.93 (talk) 20:56, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
