"Most gods throw dice, but Fate plays chess, and you don't find out until too late that he's been playing with two queens all along".  Terry Pratchett.

During filming of Airplane, Leslie Nielsen used a whoopee cushion to keep the cast off-balance. Hays said that Nielsen "played that thing like a maestro"

I'm surprised that none of this came out at the end of the cold war.

A few of the deaths/accident cover-ups did only come out after the fall of the USSR.

But there was nothing related to many of those on the list & otherwise. 

Either the outside conclusions were somehow wrong on the rest of them, or they were such bad screw-ups that Soviet leadership completely scrubbed all records and made serious enough threats against potential leakers that the cover-up stuck.

Did some googling and found some related articles that poke rather large holes in some of the Judica-Cordiglia recordings. This was one of the better ones:

Nice link. 

Some extra info I haven't seen before.  Such as names of the pre-Gagarin cosmonauts supposedly lost.
