∙ 9y agoIt would be difficult to create such a list since how bad a tornado is is a sibjective measure, though perhaps the best measure is death toll. Even then, most of the world's deadliest tornadoes ocurred either in Bangladesh or before 1950. In either case, that makes reliable data hard to come by. Wikipedia, however, seems to have the best potential list of the deadliest tornadoes.
- The Daulatpur/Saturia Tornado of April 26, 1989: 1300+ dead
- The Tri-State tornado of March 18, 1925: 695+ dead
- The Manikganj/Singair/Nawabganj tornado of April 17, 1973: 681+ dead
- The East Pakistan (Bangladesh) tornado of April 14, 1969: 660+ dead
- The Valetta, Sicily tornado of Sepember 23, 1551 (or 1556): 600+ dead
- The Magura/Naril tornado of April 11, 1964: 500+ dead
- The southern Sicily tornado* of December 1851: 500+ dead
- The Madaripur/Shibchar tornado of April 1, 1977: 500+ dead
- The Ivanovo, Russiatornado of June 9, 1984: 400+ dead
