Top Ten Worst Things That Could Happen To The World

 

 

 

1VoteEWorld War III

We have so many threats in this world (like Iraq, Syria, and North Korea) and many allies. In the past, people just invaded with guns, which is puny compared to those city destroying nuclear bombs. It can all start with the activation of a detonator. Our main enemy ( North Korea) has nuclear weapons, so we are in danger too. I think we really need to make peace pactsM+31

I don't think North Korea are the main enemy, they actually don't anything compared to the rest of the world, they just spread a lot of propaganda and make it look like it.M+12

Nuclear warfare would turn the world into hell, radiation would mutate or kill people and anyone who was not effected would have to rebuild civilisation.M+19

Zombie Apocalypse... Seriously... STUPID AND TYPICAL American IMAGINATION! SENSELESS... But world war 3.. That is something real... Something that CAN happen... Something that MAY happen.. For all the nuclear weapons developed... It will decrease population at least to 50 percent! And some people... SOME PEOPLE JUST WANT TO WATCH THE WORLD BURN.M+9

North Korea is the worst countryMnew

2VoteEZombie Apocalypse

Slow zombies. We will survive...fast zombies were screwedM+50

Even though most of us think we are gonna survive, it's probably gonna be the opposite. Most zombie movies and video games show the zombie apocalypse as a disease (like in World War Z and The Last of Us). In a major city, there's no tell what's gonna happen. It would be too late. Airports would spread the disease across the world. City after city would fall. To everyone else surviving, it wouldn't be easy. Supplies and food would be scarce, as everyone would be looting. Riots would occur, killing even more people. - ethanmeinsterM+13

I'd personally want the zombie apocalypse to be like the one in Shaun of the Dead because the zombies are slow. - Jetticus12M+25

This is similar to what happened to my land. Titans attacked and viciously murdered innocent civilians. Not a lot of people are up to the task of taking care of them. People like yourselves are lucky that Titans don't roam around your cities and homes. - Levi-AckermanMnew

3VoteEAsteroid Hits Earth

Instead of using nuclear bombs to launch at the earth itself, they can be used to destroy large asteroids that can wipe out the earth, also if earth does get hit, then let's hope that ferns and palm trees survive to take over the world then a new humanoid species can take over the world and explore space, visit new planets, and create a huge machine that prevents the end of the universe. Huh?M+5

I think the "world losing oxygen for 5 seconds" would technically better, however, considering we are WAY over due for an asteroid strike (AT LEAST 20 MILLION YEARS AGO! ), I'd say this would be the more dangerous event. - gimi8609M+5

A collision would cause a tsunami, a dust cloud, or the world to instantly perish. All depends on where it hits...M+4

This should be number one - Freddy_FazbearM+3

4VoteEWorld Loses Oxygen For 5 Seconds

Everybody at the beach would immediately get sunburns, the daytime sky would get dark, all pieces of untreated metal would instantly spot weld to each other, the earth's crust would crumble, everyone's inner ear would explode, every building made of concrete would turn to dust, every living cell would explode in a haze of hydrogen gas, and the oceans would evaporate and blend into space.

Pretty scary stuff! - Jetticus12M+78

To all the clueless people that think everyone would "explode" or "boil", your wrong. If the Earth lost all oxygen for 5 seconds everyone would pretty much be fine, your ear drums could implode possibly, but you would basically just lose consciousness until the earth was reoxygenized and repressurized. We wouldn't freeze either, although space is typically very cold, the release of body heat is not very fast. And for the stubborn people that refuse to believe me, you may read about it yourself on the NASA website.M+13

That's why God created the world perfectly. That will never happen, neither will the zombie apocalypseM+10

... No world is perfect... Especially Earth... Have you seen the damage humans have done to this place? - LostDream258M+4

Anyway we'll survive as it's just for 5 seconds. Of course if this doesn't mean losing gravity as well. - Fan_of_Good_MusicMnew

5VoteEThe Sun Explodes

If earth is gonna be inside the sun we should act fast if we were living on that year, lets say 5 years before it happens, we would make a starship and live in space, I wouldn't live in other planets. those would die too. 12 billion years. The Universe its self will end. It will be dark and really cold. But the good news: when earth dies GOD will make a new heaven and earth. at 1.1 billion years. Earth's oceans will boil away and dries up. 3.3 billion years Earth is too hot and dry for humans and other living things and everything dies. This could lead Eco disaster, well its gonna anyway. later on Earth is really fiery and hot. and oceans were gone. later like 1000 billion years, the universe will end.M+2

This will be the final end of Earth after a couple billion years. But the sun won't exactly explode. After the sun uses most of its hydrogen up, it will become a red giant. This will make Earth uninhabitable for any living thing, even heat loving microbes. Hopefully, the human race (if its still living) will develop technology to get to an Earth like planet, or Europa and Titan, potentially habitable moons that would be warm enough after the sun expands. - ethanmeinsterM+3

Man, if the sun blew up, nothing would be around anymore. - istooduptoabullyM+14

The Sun won't explode; it's mass isn't great enough to do that. It will become a red giant, progress into a planetary nebula, and end as a white dwarf. - Juan-LuisM 

Soon the earth will get eaten by the sun and then the sun will explode. Then we will all be dead but this will happen in like 6.7 billion yearsM

6VoteENuclear War

Terrifying, because if it was happening in every part of the world, there'd be no hope of survival. If the sun blows up or there's a black hole, we all die in a millisecond, painlessly, and that's the end of that. With a different type of war or zombies, lots of people would die, but there would still be hope for survival. With a nuclear war, it would be impossible to survive. You could not avoid a nuclear blast. Even if you did, you would end up dying a slow painful death from radiation poisoning, which you would get very quickly. You would be on your deathbed for years, not even able to fight from being so sick. If there was an all-out nuclear war where every country was involved, we'd all be in for a horrible fate.M+5

If the bombs don't kill you... The Radiation will.
You can't see Radiation, you can't hear it, you can't smell it, and you can't even feel it.
Animals may mutate, all water will become irradiated, the world will be inhospitable.M+14

Nuclear war is far scarier than a JB apocalypse. - durecklM+19

Its not far to happenMnew

Oh dear God... I don't want to live on this planet anymore... I hope the political leaders have since enough to realize that this is a horrible, tragic, and murderous idea... - LostDream258M

7VoteEBlack Hole

This might or might not happen, after all we don't know much about black holes and the few things we know are just theories, so it's a bit unlikely to die because of it.M+2

If the solar system got inside one the sky wouldn't even existM+3

If the solar system got in one, it will be dark, and their will be no skyM+1

A good way to dieMnew

8VoteEAliens Take Over

What could happen maybe extinction or slavery?M+9

Their will be a type of mutation or disease spreading, or they will eat us, or capture us with electric laser cages, and they will have a bunch of torturing prototype guns, and they have spaceships with hundreds of buttonsM 

They would treat us like we humans treat everything on this planet... Top of the food chain they would be... You know what will happen then?M+3

Humans will finally be getting a taste of their own medicine, won't they? - LostDream258M+3

How come aliens always have to be a bad thing? What if there are already aliens on earth?Mnew

9VoteESuper Volcano

This isn't a normal type of volcano. In the USA, there is a super volcano, that you probably heard of: Yellowstone, although there are other super volcanoes across the world, in places like Japan. Instead of lava reaching only a few miles, lava flows from a super volcano would reach hundreds of miles away. The pyroclastic clouds would engulf cities as far as Seattle and St. Louis. Even if areas within hundreds of miles would be destroyed, it doesn't stop there. There would be global darkness for years. Weather systems would be interrupted, including the monsoon winds of the Indian Ocean, causing massive famines. The temperature would fall, and we would lose all of the Sun's light. Every crop would just die, and we would starve to death. There would be ash in the air, choking all animals. The ash would ground planes, take down the electricity, and cause buildings thousands of miles away to collapse. And Yellowstone is becoming unstable, with roads in the park melting... - ethanmeinsterM+6

The lava won't flow that far, though ash would reach as far as Louisiana. - LostDream258M 

I don't think you all understand the power of a super volcano. Millions would die instantly from the blast and billions more after the Earth is plunged into unbearable darkness and cold.M+9

I don't think any of you understand how dangerous a super volcano can be. The top half of the world would be plunged into darkness because of the massive ash clouds. Tempratures would drop, food wouldn't grow, acid rain would fall. People would die. Yellowstone park is a super volcano. And it is overdue for an eruption. Scientists think that the magma chamber won't be full enough for an eruption for another 2000 years. Lets hope so. - IronSabbathPriestM+1

Millions if not billions would die from the eruption alone. Then hundreds of tons of ash would be tossed into the sky blocking the sun leading to years of darkness, famine, and breathing would be much more difficult. Not exactly a happy scenario. - OriginalVisionaryMnew

10VoteERobot Take Over

Yes. Ever heard of the movie iRobot? That could be the possible future for humans.M+16

Only in a million years, because now we don't have many robots that act by themselves, and even those that do exist are not powerful enough to wipe out the human race.M+1

Like on the Matrix.. that would just be so scaryM+4

That's true humans are so dumb that they could easily accidentally let robots take over.Mnew

11VoteENo Oxygen for 24 Hours

It would be worse if it were nitrogen...M+5

I love how no Oxygen for 24 hours is lower than No Oxygen for 5 seconds. I mean, no Oxygen for several hours would kill thousands more than 5 seconds. Just Saying.M 

Get a oxygen mask! Or hold your breath for a really long time.M+3

Most people would perish since the average person does not have an oxygen mask and tank. - LostDream258Mnew

12VoteEThe Illuminati Takes Over

We must stop this from happening.M+17

Don't they by definition already rule the world? I thought they are a secret organisation that rules the world and everything important that happens is plotted by illuminati.M+4

They suck big time...M+7

Yes it might be in vines, but it's dangerousMnew

13VoteEEverybody Commits Suicide

I have had suicidal thoughts in the past. Even today, I still think a lot about death and suicide. I write suicide stories and poems. I wonder if there is really a point to life. If there is, tell me. Is life worthless? Is there anything good that ever comes out of it? It's only a matter of time before I begin to think about it myself. I already have. My fear of death (Thanatophobia) is the only thing that could baracade my plans... - RockFashionistaM+4

Actually, this might be the best thing, from the worlds perspective.M+12

Okay, this one is retarded. It would be nearly impossible to coordinate everyone to commit suicide before any more children are born. Illuminati Domination is more likely than this. Unless, of course, this is the Illuminati's plan for world domination.M+3

Life is great don't commit SUICIDE! Your a good person so live your good lifeMnew

14VoteEGamma Ray Burst

If this happened we would all die immediately as it hit. Nothing could or can survive theseM+1

It's a big burst of energy that could cause earth to lose electricity and it can make the sun overheat earthM 

We won't die, but we will all be big green people (Hulk)M+1

All of us will become hulk, it will be easier for people to make debut in Films! Lol - AnanyaMnew

15VoteEWater Shortage

Well first off this is true but there are a million Sources Ice, Rocks, Water, Peppers, stuff like that so if would be really not easy for the earth to run out of water unless the earth became a baby sun or some shietM+3

This is happening here in California. It sucks because I live there. - Pegasister12M+1

Very unlikely and it might happen only if aliens take over Earth.M 

16VoteESolar Flare

This will not kill us, the atmosphere was created to defend earth from theseM 

We'd all be unprotected from the Sun's radiation, and there would be large EMPs causing every electronic device to be fried - ethanmeinsterM+1

17VoteESupernova

The world MIGHT have been created by a supernova, but it's only a theory like many others, but we do know that a supernova would destroy our galaxy and create a black hole, but it would happen only after the Sun has lost all of its energy.M+2

By the time there is a supernova the Earth would already have been engulfed by the Sun millions of years before.M 

Wasn't the world created by a supernova? - MusicalPonyM 

18VoteERed Star Comes Towards Our Galaxy Burning Every Planet

The Sun would be included in getting burned but before we melted to death without the sun we would burn up pretty quickly.M 

A red star is not a hot star - 2stormM+1

What about supernova or is that the same thingM 

19VoteEBlackout While an Asteroid Is About to Hit Earth

This would make the best movie ever.M+8

I didn't know meteors were electricM
