I hate it when engines simply flame out as compared to tossing their cookies. Makes me think of contamination problems likely to affect all engines eventually.
I'd be terrified flying in a four-engine plane - the risk of an engine failing is TWICE as great as in a twin!

(and ferry pilot Max Conrad preferred flying a single across the pond.)

(And you won't get me anyways near a B-52...)
