For almost a hundred of years now, numerous people have been coming up with predictions on how the world will end, even if it becomes totally absurd. We may not know why the majority of the society is obsessed with the idea of the world ending, but what we know are some of the most possible ways it can finally transpire. Just like a thief in the night.

Here are top 8 of those ways:

1 - Asteroid Crash

According to many scientists and space experts, if a big asteroid hits the earth, it can lead to tsunamis, earthquakes and even trigger volcanoes to erupt. In fact, according to scientific history, it's what swiped the dinosaurs off the earth about 65 million years ago, right?

2 - The Giant Sun

As the sun continues to grow older, the more intense its heat becomes. It can grown into a one giant fire and eat up the entire solar system. That means, Earth, included. This will make the waters of the Earth evaporate and never appear again.

3 - Nuclear Warfare

With global stability increasingly deteriorating, the higher the possibility for a nuclear war to happen between nations. Once any of the potential countries start to fire a nuke, then retaliation is most likely to happen which can lead to the greater destruction of mankind.

4 - Robot World

Robots taking over the world can sound really insane but it won't be too exciting to see them fighting humans and not willing to surrender to any sort of diplomacy.

5 - Black Holes

According to many space researchers, there are about ten million black holes just around the Milky Way. But they are believed to orbit around the cosmos, and someday, it can get in the Earth's orbit and suck all of us.

6 - Attack of the Aliens

If aliens will have the high technological capacity to reach the Earth, then they can most probably enslave every human being on Earth. Who knows, they can all be making plans against us already...

7 - Volcanoes

A potential eruption of any of the super volcanoes on Earth can wipe out all of us. According to researchers, the last eruption of a super volcano in Indonesia almost erased the whole human race about 70,000 years ago.

8 - Prepare For Ice Age

If climate change continues to persist, then the return of ice age may also most likely to lead to the end of the world.

Are you ready for any of these?
