To add onto this other forms of large-scale power generation have the same risks, such as Bellmouth Spillways in hydroelectricity
These things kill at least 10 people every year.

What's the most unsafe engineered structure or creation by engineers?

My vote is to bellmouth spillways, which no one has ever fallen into and lived to tell the tale. Anyone caught inside one is quickly sucked into a dark cylinder of water many meters tall where a vortex smashes them into a bloody pulp or drowns them with its violent currents. The only way to survive is for it to somehow be dry but then you face a fall of almost 50 meters in height, which is not survivable.
