The toba eruption was ultra plinian.
2.1 million years ago, an eruption near present-day Yellowstone ejected about 2500 cubic kilometers of material, and created the Island Park Caldera. This is not much less than the largest measured eruption in history, the 2800 km^3 eruption of Mount Toba, about 74,000 years ago.
That is not true about Lake Toba. They recently discovered Lava in the Super Volcano and it is considered restless. Yellowstone could not hold a candle to what Lake Toba can do the world.
volcanoes that contain small amounts of carbon dioxide<<<<WRONG!! VOLCANOES THAT HAVE LARGE AMOUNTS OF SILICA!!!! ^ wrong again A supervolcano (Caldera) has a VEI (volcanic explositivity index) of up to 8 namedly 'The Yellow Stone Caldera' and 'Lake Toba.' Lake Toba Erupted 2800KM3 of ash and lava.

The Toba eruption was massive. It was actually twice as big as Yellowstone's most recent super eruption and 12% bigger than Yellowstone'biggest super eruption, 2 million years ago. It is often called Yellowsone's "big sister." when it erupted it created a lake and wiped out 60% of the human population.
The Toba volcanic eruption, which occurred around 74,000 years ago, is believed to have caused a volcanic winter and possibly a population bottleneck for early Homo sapiens. Some researchers suggest that the eruption may have led to a significant reduction in the human population, affecting genetic diversity and leading to a period of global cooling. However, the exact impact of the Toba eruption on early Homo sapiens remains a topic of debate among scientists.
The Toba supervolcano last erupted around 75,000 years ago in present-day Indonesia. This eruption is considered one of the most catastrophic events in Earth's history.
They didn't prepare. The Lake Toba eruption was 74,000 years ago, before the development of civilization. The people around at the time were hunter-gatherers. They didn't know what a volcano was or how to prepare for an eruption.
The explosion that produced the La Garita Caldera in the San Juan Mountains in Colorado was the largest known volcanic eruption in Earth's history. The Tsar Bomba, the most powerful weapon ever denotated by humans, had a yield of 50 megatons. By comparison, the La Garita Caldera explosion was 105 times more powerful.THATS NOT TRUE. The largest eruption in history was the Siberian Traps eruption 250 million years ago. It was thousands of times more power than the La Grita Caldera and Yellowstone and Toba. The Siberian Traps erupted for a million years and it wiped out 90% of ALL life on Earth.
A supervolcano typically has a Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI) of 8, which is the highest level on the scale. This VEI indicates an eruption that releases more than 1,000 cubic kilometers of material, causing widespread devastation on a global scale. Examples of supervolcanoes include Yellowstone Caldera in the United States and Lake Toba in Indonesia.
