I think a huge tsunami would be terrifying. But all natural disasters are pretty awful.
A land slide. Imagine being buried in a pile of sand, in your house...
Your lungs slowly filling up with sand as you are buried alive...
Horrible, horrible way to go.
Indeed, but I was more meaning, the worst possibel event in terms of number of lives lost.
I see...
The most Catastrophic event that claimed the highest number of lives in history seems to be the 1931 china floods that claimed between 1 million and 4 million lives.
Earthquakes and resultant tsunami's i consider the most dangerous natural disasters in terms of population of lives lost.
But is this the worst imaginable disaster? A hint: it is worse than even an asteroid hitting Earth.
I guess the answer would have to be subjective.
Any natural disaster can become the worse kind of the right conditions are met.
A flood can wipe out a whole civilization, even the whole world of the conditions are right... Noah and the great flood as case in point.
All natural disasters are very bad, but I think tsunamis and volcanic eruptions are the worst.
