The 5 Bloodiest Battles in History. Every victory comes at a price. Here we look at the staggering cost of human life in five of historyâs fiercest confrontations where the sheer number of warrior-dead defies imagination. Much of a soldierâs life is spent awaiting and preparing for war. When the moment to take action does come, it is usually bloody, confusing, and over quickly.
From observations of scientists and historical sources, we know today that Tsunamis can occur in all larger seas of the world. Thus, fatal tsunamis occur in geologically less active oceans such as the Atlantic, the Indian Ocean or the Mediterranean as well.
Less common are tsunami initiated by volcanic eruptions. These occur in several ways: 1  if an underwater volcano erupts, the hot lava may heat the surrounding water quickly and explosively. 2  massive flows of volcanic debris such as ash can travel down the side of a volcano and into the ocean, pushing water outwards.
