Nuclear warfare: Is there anything more pants-wettingly terrifying? When those big bombs go up in the air, the only thing left will be ashes and apologies. We all know that if the warheads start flying, mutually assured destruction is the end result. Thankfully, nobody’s been dumb enough to launch a nuke since we hit Nagasaki. But people make mistakes, and the Department of Defense just released a frightening paper listing multiple cases of the world very nearly coming to the point of nuclear holocaust. Here are ten of the scariest times nuclear armaments have almost accidentally been detonated.

Riviere-Du-Loup, Quebec – 1950

Boy, this one sure makes us lousy neighbors. In 1950, a U.S. Air Force B-50 was dispatched to Canada to retrieve one of the Mark 4 atomic bombs we had secretly deployed there. The Cold War was a crazy time, you know. The mission went fine until the plane ran into a spot of engine trouble. The captain had to make a split-second decision: go down with the plane and possibly die in a horrific atomic fireball, or try to control the explosion somehow. He opted for the latter, ejecting the bomb over the St. Lawrence River set to detonate at 2,500 feet above ground. The resulting blast terrified unsuspecting locals and doused the land with 100 pounds of uranium.
