#8 Krakatoa Eruption 1883

In 1883 the Indonesian volcano of Krakatoa exploded with three miles of magma barreling down. The volcanic crater caused a tsunami that flooded 100 villages and killed over 26,000 people. The ash traveled all the way to New York, the eruption had as much energy as an atomic bomb, with blasts being heard more than a thousand miles away.
