* ConstructiveBodyDisposal: [[AvertedTrope Averted]] in their episode on the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoover_Dam Hoover Dam]]. A popular UrbanLegend about the dam is that a worker or workers are entombed in the dam due to accidents during construction. As they confirm this is not true - the dam's concrete was poured in small sections. This controlled the curing and allowed inspections for defects. A body would compromise the sections. NoOSHACompliance was still in effect at the time, there were ''other'' ways for workers to die or be severely injured in the dam's construction but none of them were buried in the dam itself.
