Answer:

Asteroid/Comet Impact Regional

Such a body is expected to hit the Earth about once every million years or so, and would release energy equivalent to about 10,000 megatons of TNT, a little greater than the energy released in a nuclear war, and enough to cause nuclear winter event (see graph above)

Explanation:

Asteroid/Comet Impact Global: 1 in 75,000

Asteroid/Comet Impact Regional: 1 in 1,600,000

Airplane Crash: 1 in 30,000

Firearms Accident: 1 in 2,500
