I thought it was around like 15... 'cause I know that like 200,000 have ies since 1400. Like just from the volcano, not the deaths because of the effects from the volcano. What is the average, I don't know if I'm way off...

its hard to say because there are like numerous volcanos that kill no people because hey are in some obscure place where no one lives, while others kill hundreds or more

I don't hink there is an average. The worst eruptions that killed over 1,000 people were eons ago, like Pompeii and the one that erupted in Greece. The worst modern day eruption around here of course was Mt. St. Helens which killed 65 people. Supervolcanoes have the potential to kill the most and actually have an effect on the entire world like the one under Yellowstone. I imagine they don't calculate averages because the most catastrophic ones happened so long ago and there hasn't been anything like those since.
