Not only did it take a tsunami to make a nuclear power plant unsafe but also more people died from the evacuation than from radiation.
No, we don't have a nuclear disaster every 10 years because there's only been 2 and one of them was from the Soviet Russia era.
Spilling 10 litres of irradiated water is not a disaster.
I'm sure everybody is aware but to add to point 2, the Chernobyl accident was mostly caused by bypassing safety procedures and lockouts
And lots of hubris.
