The asteroid impact that is widely believed to have caused the extinction of the dinosaurs around 66 million years ago is estimated to have released energy equivalent to billions of tons of TNT. This impact, which struck in what is now the Yucatán Peninsula, likely triggered massive earthquakes, tsunamis, and wildfires. While the exact magnitude of the earthquakes is difficult to quantify, they would have been immensely powerful, potentially exceeding magnitude 10 on the Richter scale. The resulting geological and environmental upheaval contributed significantly to the mass extinction event.
