"Bird (1969) - for EACH serious injury there are likely to be 10 minor injuries, 30 property damage accidents and 600 non injury accidents."

"As is typical throughout the nuclear industry, the UKAEA uses the Bird Triangle to emphasise the importance of reporting, investigating and correcting the causes of even minor events. A UKAEA Bulletin
10, describing their new (2003) management of an unusual occurrence system (UNOR), states that research carried out by Frank E Bird
who investigated 2,000,000 accidents showed that for every event leading to major injury there can be as many as 10 causing minor injury, 30 causing property damage.
