The red stripe around the rear fuselage is in line with the turbine section of each engine. You are advised not to stand in line with the stripe when the engine is running as a turbine disc failure might not be contained and would be a distinct hazard if it comes hurtling sideways out of the engine. A blade failure should be contained, but better safe than sorry.
