The deadly earthquake in Pakistan in 2013 created a new little island known as 'Earthquake Mountain' or 'Zalzala Koh', has now been swallowed by the Indian ocean. The island was formed due to the eruption of a mud volcano in the Indian ocean triggered by an earthquake. The island measured 90m wide, 40m long & 20m high. NASA's satellite images showed how slowly the small island got submerged in the ocean.
