In 1980, the United States suffered the deadliest and most destructive volcanic eruption in its history when Mount St. Helens literally blew its lid off, the result of seismic activity during the eruption.

In fact, Mount St. Helens had been the cause of the earthquake itself, the result of its own lava flows under the surface.
