  1. I’d add Vesuvius to that

  2.  @dwchen1  the last eruption from toba was actually even bigger than the largest eruption from Yellowstone

  3.  Ewan Callister  that was a different type of eruption and not a classical super eruption but I do agree that the Siberian Traps eruption was the worst eruption that we know about in earth’s history. I’d say that the largest explosive eruption (non flood basalt) is either wah wah springs or the fish canyon tuff eruption (La Garita) since both eruptions were around 2x the size of the toba eruption

  4. Tambora became active in 1812 but the big eruption didn’t happen until 1815

  5.  @PlaugeNinja  I know. I’m just not great with understanding sarcasm

  6.  @patrickscalia5088  Etna’s eruptions are relatively safe even when explosive when compared to most of the eruptions from Vesuvius, Vesuvius might be smaller but it’s deadlier

  7. And Indonesia has Tambora, Krakatoa, and Lake Toba (the largest active super volcano). Indonesia had the two deadliest eruptions in human history and the largest explosive eruption in the last 25 million years
