2.) The thunderstorm blew the returning helicopter slightly off that path, triggering radioactive Des's jumps.
3.) The Comm officer (works with radio waves) recklessly approached the island in a small boat without taking heed and both he and his crewmate paid for it with their lives.
So the extent of both a previous exposure to high energies AND your brush with the island's time turbulence will determine how severely and wildly you will be effected.

Ok, so at the end of Season 2, Ben told Michael to go on a different heading when he and Walt left on the boat. I wonder if that will have any adverse (or different) effects on Michael and Walt, or if for whatever reason the headings are different by air and by boat.
