Along the lines of Hindenburg and the Titanic, what are some of the worst disasters in history?
As far as casualties or significance of event? The Challenger blow up was pretty significant--as was Columbia to a similar extent. Are you looking for man-made destruction or natural disasters? Sounds like more of the former. How about PanAm flight whatever it was over Lockerbee Scotland? The San Francisco earthquake in the that late 80's/early 90's? There are near limitless possibilities.

Oddly, it neither mentions the plague or Windows 95
That's actually interesting...

Something like tjernobyl or 9/11 could probably be pretty cool
