These explosions go on to form two very dangerous events. The first is a mega tsunami, which surges in all directions destroying everything it comes across, before retreating back into the lake and dragging large amounts of debris with it. The second, is the release of a giant cloud of noxious ground hugging carbon dioxide, which travels in all directions for many kilometres, choking out any oxygen dependent life it comes across until it has finally di
