re: Tire falls of United Operated Boeing 777 at take-off

Not as big of a deal as people are making it out to be. Tires bust all the time on landing, this one just happened to fall off after takeoff. Still plenty of tires left to make a safe landing.

Tires bust on landing because the force of landing is so great, right? The tires function as shock absorbers.
Well, what is there to absorb the shock of landing if the tire isn't there? What if other tires bust on landing because the force will be more heavily distributed to those tires? I get having redundancies, but just because there is a redundancy doesn't mean a failure is acceptable.
