Season 1, 10 Episodes

Deadly Disasters - Earthquakes

Many of our most densely populated cities are situated on the Earth’s most seismically active fault lines. Deadly, highly destructive, and impossible to predict, Earthquakes are truly one of Mother Nature’s most terrifying forces.

Deadly Disasters - Hurricanes

With a combination of torrential rain, powerful winds, and devastating storm surges, Hurricanes are among Mother Nature’s most calamitous natural disasters.

Deadly Disasters - Tornadoes

The Tornado is one of Mother Nature’s most extraordinary phenomena. These intense, rapidly rotating columns of air can attain wind speeds of more than 480 kilometres per hour, and have been witnessed on every continent except Antarctica.

Deadly Disasters - Tsunamis

In Japanese, Tsunami translates to “harbour wave.” They are unleashed when a major disturbance occurs underwater, creating a series of enormous, deadly swells.

Deadly Disasters - Blizzards

With ice, freezing temperatures, and ferocious winds — the Blizzard is one of Mother Nature’s most effective killing machines. They are typically associated with heavy snow, but may even occur when there is little or no snowfall.

Deadly Disasters - Landslides

Nothing can be done to prevent a landslide once it starts; they are among the most ferocious and devastating forces in nature.

Deadly Disasters - Volcanoes

Volcanoes occupy a special place in our imagination. Stories of the destruction of the ancient Roman city of Pompeii continue to fascinate, while terrifying visions of exploding fire and molten rock play a key part in our nightmares.

Deadly Disasters - Heatwaves

Temperatures in places like Saudi Arabia routinely exceed 40 degrees Celsius with very little effect on the population. However, when the same extreme heat struck the people of Russia in 2010, it killed an estimated 56,000 people.

Deadly Disasters - Pandemics

With an ever more mobile world population, potentially growing in size to 11 billion people by the next century, public health experts agree that the possibility of a cataclysmic disease is more likely now than ever before.

Deadly Disasters - Floods

Water may seem harmless, but in enormous quantities, it can be an astonishingly destructive force. Apart from famine, floods have resulted in more deaths worldwide than any other natural disaster.
