A nightclub fire in Port Chester, New York claimed 24 lives.
All in Disasters
In 1983, a 100-foot section of the Mianus River Bridge collapsed and 4 vehicles plunged into the shallow water below.
Over 200 schools were destroyed in the disaster and it was clear that had the quake struck during school hours the death toll would have been significantly higher.
100 people died on this night in one of the worst nightclub fires in U.S. history.
