    April 2016: The Panama Papers are leaked/published.
    February 2017: The Oscars’ presenters forget how to read.
    February 2018: Parkland, Florida school shooting.
    March 2019: The Boeing 737 Max is effectively banned from flights after a string of crashes.
    March 2020: Covid doesn’t start, but finally comes to a breaking point and restrictions are implemented across the US.
    March 2021: The container ship Ever Given ran aground in the Suez Canal.
    February 2022: Russia invades Ukraine.
