I still maintain that Sinclair was on the right track just decades ahead of his time. At some point very soon someone is going to hit the jackpot with a low cost personal transport device more attractive than an escooter and the market will explode.

The C5 was a pretty cool concept, way ahead of its time.

The titanic wasn’t an inherent failure, no ship from the time period would have survived that iceberg and while not having enough lifeboats was an issue, it was the international regulations that were the problem as titanic had more lifeboats than the regulations at the time required.
I don’t believe titanic should be on this list as the ship sank with a large loose of life due to a combination of poor industry wide regulations, bad luck and Mother Nature.
