If the caldera blows the airports will stop working....and a tsunami will screw up the ports...
So how we are expected to get to Argentina or Brazil....?
It wouldn’t matter about getting to the ports because not that many would be able to get to the ports.
Interstate Highway 35 Southbound?
Dang, that looks bad. Is it from a movie?
I’ll take Australia or New Zealand. Tahiti maybe.
This could be worse than a velociraptor attack.
Not my fault.
I submitted the official paperwork to declare that.
Kaku is a kook and apparently a narcissist. He sensationalizes everything he talks about and is in love with himself. Saying that about Yellowstone just got him a few more TV interviews. Some things he says may be true but it’s impossible to tell.
Here is one for you. The entire area of Naples Italy is within a caldera. AND it is under the yellow watch. It will be about a 7 event.
If the Cascadia zone slips, it might set off one of the volcanoes in that area, or set of Yellowstone. Yellowstone goes off and we can all bend over and kiss our asses goodbye no mater where the hell you live on this earth. Depends on how big the event is..
That’s pretty awesome. Great special effects. Thanks.
Which is a bigger threat the Yellowstone super volcano or the zombie apocalypse?
I was in Yellowstone 5 years ago and asked a Ranger at Old Faithful what would happen to us, who were right there, if the caldera went off, and he said we’d be vaporized.

Immanentize the Eschaton...ping.
Nonsense as is the claim of 60 + significant earthquakes. There has been a small swarm in West Yellowstone for the last couple weeks. However nothing indicates and eruption coming soon. There is a lot of magma there and it does frequently move.
It wouldnt go off all of a sudden. There would be more and more earthquakes and more severe. There would be several vents open up and those would enjoin with each other and spew ash until they all come unzipped and the thing collapses again creating another caldera. Days? Weeks? Nobody knows. But the biggest one put enough ash into the air making it the second biggest event in years and years.
There would be days of advance warning for people to get the hell outta the way. What good that would do, I dont know since it will kill in effect over one third of the earths population over the years following the event.
So much for the survivalists. They will die as well as the rest. except they will starve a little later than the rest of us.
That is exactly how it might happen. Well thought out, that one.
