13 Of The Most Bizarre Disasters In History

There are numerous accounts in history of devastating earthquakes, floods, plane disasters, and other calamities. History also contains tales of genuinely bizarre events. Occasionally, truly incredible things happen in life, and ordinary natural forces mix with the bad luck to cause disastrous effects. Even a small portion of history's unusual calamities are highlighted in the list below. Thankfully, not all of them were fatal.

When life hands you lemons, you simply sell them to spend on new skin once your old one is burned away by a river of toxic waste. Researchers can, at the very least, approximate the number of deaths associated with calamities that occurred throughout the classic period according to historical documents and journals. The accompanying natural catastrophes, sorted from lowest to the greatest estimated death toll, are the worst of all time to such records. (In times of calamities with a death toll range, every disaster is rated according to the highest estimate.)
