It is believed that sea water permeated numerous cracks and fissures and reacted with magma deep within the bowels of the volcano. this caused a massive buildup of pressure which was released in the catastrophic eruption of 1815 which claimed an estimated 92,000 lives and measured 7 on the Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI), making it the most powerful and the deadliest eruption ever recorded in the world.
