The A-Z Of Disasters
A is for Avalanche, one of Nature's deadliest forces. Avalanches strike suddenly and randomly, as four survivors of 1999's French disaster, in which 11 people were killed, testify. B is for Bridges (the unfortunate Sir Thomas Bridge and his doomed Tay Rail Bridge, which collapsed in 1879, killing 75 people); C is for the Challenger Space Shuttle; D is for drought in Ethiopia; E is for the Exxon Valdez Oil tanker. You get the picture.
If not, this peculiar whistle-stop tour of disasters will soon sort you out, albeit at breakneck speed.
Blink and you'll probably miss one.
