In 1926, nature blew up a hilltop outside of Dover, NJ
Well... that and about 10% of the military's ENTIRE munitions stockpile that was being stored at the Navy Depot outside Picatinny Arsenal. It caused both a prompt disaster as well as lingering effects which are still felt nearly 100 years later.
