Understandable to think this. Maybe we did come really close to some of those disasters, such as nuclear war. It's just survivors bias to think that it wasn't civilization ending danger we were in back then.

I hope we learn from that and steer clear of the danger next time, rather than think it'll be alright because nobody happened to actually press the red button back then so I guess we worried about nothing
