These are two Black Swan events by Nassim Taleb's definition.
In my book, a Black Swan is something either too unlikely or terrible to contemplate, or an event that arises for completely unexpected reasons. No one expected something as seemingly innocuous as Facebook and Twitter to ignite the fires of revolution, and no one seriously expected a Tsunami to cause a nuclear reactor meltdown. What will be next? By definition, you don't know.
