I've also seen a weird video (lost to time unfortunately), where someone showed that they could yell at their servers in a data centre and introduce errors (or something similar). Was very strange to see, but they had a console up clearly showing that it was having an impact.

I actually planned to include a link to this video in my original response but then left it out. Thanks for posting!
Because of course it was Bryan :D
Brian just giving his opinion on anything would give hard drives errors... That guy loves to run his mouth (and I love to listen).
Actually, although the video is on Bryan Cantrill's YouTube account, that was Brendan Gregg.
I was merely the videographer! For anyone who is curious, I discussed the backstory of that video with Ben Sigelman.[0]
