Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar

The SS Grandcamp's cargo of approximately 2.300 tons of ammonium nitrate detonated due to a fire and caused a subsequent chain-reaction of further fires and explosions in other ships and nearby oil-storage facilities. An additional 113 people were classified as missing, for no identifiable parts were ever found.
(15 April 1947)



There are 3361 births, 3912 deaths, 1121 murders, 494 disasters and 2072 other events about 5714 people in 6416 places until today.
