Movies about disasters

Disasters have haunted humanity since its inception on Earth. Until the 20th century, these disasters were mainly associated with natural phenomena, such as volcanoes, earthquakes, floods, etc. Then in the 20th century, and especially in its second half, man-made disasters were added to natural ones.

These are shipwrecks, airliners, trains. Explosions of apartment buildings, fires and collapses in the subway. Leakage of toxic and poisonous substances from chemical industry enterprises. And finally, accidents at nuclear power plants.

The latter simply became a challenge for humanity, because the accident at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, which occurred on April 26, 1986, became the largest catastrophe in the history of humanity. If you do not count the biblical flood, of course, but there are no proven historical facts about it.

This section presents disaster films, the main characters of which are people who confronted the elements and were ready to sacrifice themselves to prevent mass deaths.
