Volcanoes

There immediate destruction is pretty localised, but there effects can be felt years after all over the planet.

Volcano eruptions. I'm sure there's lots of information on Mt St Helens, Vesuvius, and of course Eyjafjallajökull
Or for the actual big explosions
Mount Tambora
Krakatoa
Or the grand daddy of them all Toba.

I wish I could chose more than one option. All of them really. These events will always amaze me with the sheer scale, power, and destruction they can cause.

If it were indeed possible to predict the timings of the Yellowstone volcano eruptions I can't think of a better way to go out and cease to exist.
Skydiving from a high altitude weather balloon, no parachute, bottle of single malt scotch in one hand, unfiltered cigarette in the other hand, smoking and drinking on the way down in my pressure suit.
I ever get something incurably terminal, or brain damage - that's how I'm going out.
Don't ask where I'd crater into, I've yet to decide between a couple of places.

Uwe Boll combined with 2012 would be like Roanoke. Everyone would just disappear.

But I'm gonna go with volcanoes. Mother earth popping her acne is fascinating.

You could just do that with a parachute. I'd like to go and see something nobody else will see live. Like sitting in a comfy chair as a Tsunami chrages towards me.

But rly, hail. Whenever I see hail around here, I'm totally amazed at how it occurs.

Everything else is pretty simple.
