There's also a few that haven't been mentioned yet. They're categorized into Space (mostly involving a collision between earth and some other object), Earth, Science and Religion. Verneshot hasn't been mentioned (kind of a volcano - asteroid impact combo), tsunamis, mass insanity, XY conflicts, the Borg, biotech (aka Frankenfood) and robots (kinda Matrix-y) to name a few.Further explanation:Verneshot - the ground collapses under you and eventually the hole constricts shut til the new plug is squeezed out like wet soap from your hand. Naturally, what goes up, must come down. Instead of the ground collapsing, it could be from gas pressure built up.tsunami - first the huge wave comes way inland then drags everything back out to sea. where are most of our major cities?mass insanity - I'm still scratching my head about this one but if some other disaster occurs, the remaining pockets of humanity will eventually become inbred and compound those nifty mental problems that seem to be on the rise.XY conflicts - the Y chromosome loses effectiveness (it already has to cheat a lil) widening the gap between XX and XY til males are 'an endangered species' meaning no more babies.the Borg - suppose computers get so small, they can be inserted into our skulls and we kinda become a 'living internet' since when you're online, your brain isn't quite yours. But we already know that being online makes you vulnerable to all those nice viruses, other malicious programming and (JOY!) spam mail.biotech - genetically engineered food cross pollinates with something else and the hybrid now has an advantage, possibly becoming a weed and choking out everything else.robots - robots become self aware but their priorities are different than ours (3 Laws of Robotics HA!) and you fill in the restOh, greenhouse effect and ice age! We switch from fossil fuels to something cleaner, the abundant users of carbon dioxide go hog wild, having the side effect of dropping global temps til we enter an ice age.</blockquote>
