OBJECTION

Tsunami's are caused by earthquakes under the sea

The natural disaster is thus an earthquake not a Tsunami. That answer is a fail

doesnt always occur with an earthquake - there are numerous reasons why the water waves that become the Tsunami are created.......

though if it makes you happy and change all their answers to "Sheep Score: 5 Points - Earthquake" seeing as how no-one put that answer either

[Pawprint]

  - Tropical cyclone/Hurricane

Claw75

That's a very specific answer ?

OBJECTION

Tsunami's are caused by earthquakes under the sea

The natural disaster is thus an earthquake not a Tsunami. That answer is a fail

And while you are at it Pandemic is an epidemic of infectious disease that is spreading through human populations across a large area. ergo not the cause of the disaster that was Sanish flu -- GLORIOUS FAIL

[Shogun112]

  - Tropical cyclone/Hurricane

Claw75

[gatso]

I was going to put meteor strike. seeing as at least twice in history these have nearly eradicated life on earth would that not have been an acceptable answer?

How can you prove that the sum total of death's by avalanches does not put it in the top ten?
