I remember the big kerfuffle about this before the LHC started up.
Normies did not understand that any black holes formed would probably last a few planck time lengths (my guess) and be essentially harmless.
Normies also do not understand that super high energy particles hit the upper atmosphere all the time. No black hole disaster yet.
I sleep well at night.
The mess came from a biologist being scared... Media were listening more to him than to physicists who were claiming that those blackholes would evaporate before doing anything else, than there are much more energetic phenomena on Earth arising very often and the planet is still there, etc... But what can we do here? :p:)
