    Given they’re frozen by being immersed in liquid nitrogen, how do these refrigeration failures happen? They don’t require electricity, just someone to top it up occasionally.

      Sometimes the liquid nitrogen lines to the pods fail, sometimes you get a prolonged power outage, sometimes there’s a leak in the pods themselves that allows coolant to evaporate, etc.
