Five worst tragedies in history?

What, in your opinion, are the five worst tragedies in history? They can range anywhere from a terrorist attack, to a natural disaster, to someone important dying.

1. Humans begin existing

Everything else is meaningless.

1) Ice Cream
2) Bumblebees
3) Jacope-X
4) Herpes
5) Tooth Pain

You may question if three truly is worse than four. Well, I am here to tell you it is.

I'm not too sure I have a list.

Sept 11th attacks would be around the top, though.

And, well, because anything that happens to America is obviously a crime against humanity. Because nothing is worse than 3000 Americans dying. Nothing.

As I said, I didnt name it it for the body count, I named it for it's arocity. The act itself.

Can I just put something up there? Just something I think might rank a bit worse than some American citizens and buildings getting blown up by Muslims? The Holocaust.

edit: Should rename this thread "Top 5 Worst American Tragedies", really.

Seriously? Explain? It's pretty clear. In my opinion, the only real tragedy is humans ever existing. That's... it. And I believe I already stated that above.

I think it's cause most of the problems that we get are man made 😬

The tsunami of 2006/7 (EDIT: 2004) would probably be on my list. 9/11 was bad and all, but in the grand scheme of things there are things that were far worse.

I didnt forget that one, trust me. The Holocaust took place over years, I am talking about shit that happened like BAM, out of the blue, no warnings.
