In this episode, our guest, Joe Meanen, shares his powerful and harrowing story of survival from the 1988 Piper Alpha disaster, one of the deadliest industrial accidents in history.

Joe takes us through that fateful night, recounting the chaos, the critical failures that led to the tragedy, and his courageous escape into the North Sea.

His vivid testimony reveals the human cost of systemic safety failures and is a stark reminder of the importance of vigilance, leadership, and communication in high-risk industries.

Joe’s reflections not only honour the lives lost but also highlight lessons that remain vital for organisations striving to create a stronger safety culture today.
