  1. PRE-HISTORIC POST-MORTEM Title The Incident Incident Description On June, 2

    1993 a major incident on the island of Isla Nublar caused the deaths of 5 people, 8 dinosaurs, a cow and a goat. We need to investigate what happened and note what can be done differently in the future. How was the incident detected? At about 00:56:08, all of the locking mechanisms in the park shut off. We are not entirely sure how this happened. How was the incident stabilized? The power in the park needed to be manually cycled (rebooted) in order for the locking systems to be fully operational again. This happened at about 01:43.28. How were customers affected? We’re lucky in that the park had not yet been opened to the public. There were 0 customers affected! How were employees affected? 5 dead … damn.
