A young boy from Kolontar, Hungary tries to clean up a flooded garden on October 7, 2010.

A sludge reservoir at a nearby factory burst its banks on October 4, 2010, unleashing a lethal flood on nearly 200 million gallons of red mud. The mud is a byproduct of the conversion of bauxite to alumina, for aluminium. Eight people were killed and more than 100 were injured.
