I thought the Black Plague would be #1
The world is alive?
These 7 minutes videos are much better those 12 min. and longer videos were to long
Just to clarify almost doesn't count in life. For example that bullet almost missed me but it didn't. I almost passed that test but i didn't. I almost ran that red light but I didn't.
You either kill or get killed. Watchu you gon do. Watchu you gon do.
Dengvaxia is genocide, not cure
I doubt the world will end…humans will most likely be set back, and life as we know it TODAY will end.
Is it the end of the world if a country launches missles to America?
Goddamn it…so close

Soviets really don’t like the earth
I don't know how long we're going to last but I still believe the world's going to answer later are dumb present don't try to Nuke us
When Trump became President. Haha

Sniper shot in fortnite
Almost doesnt count 😀
1:37 big barf splash on the floor… urgh…
Admit it,ur running out of ideas
tbh the world will never end .. the world is massive with even some places untouched.. when have we ever seen a planet destroyed? only thing I can see is humans always finding ways to take on the "god" role, Im not religious by any means I just mean "god" as being all powerful and in control of the whole earth and saying who dies or who doesn't .If history teaches us anything we have made some serious damage to are own kind.. resulting in deaths in millions.. we get more advanced in tactics and ways in how to hurt are enemy as time passes.. believe when I say those numbers and catastrophes made by human will increase until we literally wipe each other out
Lol wtf
Forgot the time Hillary almost became President? Talk about a close call for humanity.
This is only the tip of the iceberg. Stargate Command's SG-1 team has saved the world from annihilation numerous times – you just never hear about it due to the government keeping it top secret!
What about the Stanislav Petrov episode?
During the missile crisis, there was a risky sub that was seconds from fireing a nuke tipped torpedo at a trio of us destroyers that were following it. The sub is now in the San Diego maratime museum.
#1 anytime between 2018 and 2024

The Grand tour just saved the world by feeding it in the latest episodes
Thats why we have History Class!!!
but sadly didn’t
Instead of "Top 10 Times The World Almost Ended" this should me called "Top 10 Times Humanity Almost Got Smacked Down". None of these would end the world, just temporarily inconvenience us. A reasonable portion of the developed world, most hunter-gatherer societies, other animals, and plants should be fine if any of these were to happen (with the possible exception of #4).
Top 10 tales of the crypt episodes.
They say the world ended in 2012 but has anyone felt alive since then
God knows when and how to end human life
1. When your gf broke up with you
2. When you move out from mom's basement
3. When your mom tried to abort you but doesn't succeed
Your scarring me
Now this is what I call clickbait
OH BOY OH BOY EVERYBODY HAS TO HAVE NUCLEAR MISSILES
if the world was to begin its destruction now, i really wouldn't panic. I mean, im pretty much ready to go at any time
