Discovery ran a "Documentary" It was more like something from the producer of the day after tomarrarow. In it, Yellowstone became a super volcano and destroyed half the world.

The headline was... "This is a true story it just hasnt happened yet"

I saw this documentary, the only thing 'technically' I saw wrong with it was that it was too optimsitic, they didn't even consider the 'nuclear winter' scenario. It has erupted at least three times. The last time it erupted, it deposited six feet of ash in Nebraska.

Yellowstone became a super volcano ...

It still is.

The headline was... "This is a true story it just hasnt happened yet"

It happened three times before, the last time was some 600,000 years ago.
