  3. That picture of the Antioch earthquake in 526 is the most amazing picture in human history for several reasons: It's aerial when there were no planes, it exists when there wasn't even the closest approximation of that type of technology, it's survived almost 1,000 years. Absolutely mind blowing. 😐

  4. "1931 china floods. The 1931 central china floods or the central china floods of 1931 were a series of floods that occured in the republic of china" 7:50

    Yeah no shit.

  5. Idiots keep saying "mother nature" did this. There is no such thing as a "mother nature." …. Our Heavenly Father allowed all of these disasters because dumbasses in this world worship false idols, won't repent and submit to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. FEAR GOD!! He has the power to destroy you.
