#7 Tangshan Earthquake 1976
In 1976 the Tangshan 7.5 magnitude quake killed up to 255,000 people. The second deadliest earthquake had powerful aftershocks and was the first earthquake of its kind since an earthquake in China in 1556 that took roughly 830,000 lives. Since the Tangshan earthquake, the 2008 quake in China is the one of recent memory, killing 69,000 people, mostly school children.
