There was a point in history when humans came really close to extinction. Around 70,000 years ago, a supervolcano erupted in Indonesia, creating a massive climate change. This event, called the Toba catastrophe, caused temperatures to drop and resources to become scarce. It's believed that the human population dwindled to just a few thousand individuals. Despite the odds, our ancestors survived and thrived, leading to the diverse world we have today!
