Hardly.
The idea behind it was so I could go into BST and start buying shit and show that I had a lot of iTraders at DP.
The idea was idiotic, almost as idiotic as you.
The flooding is the biggest natural disaster in history? The historians at the UN would definitely be clobbered if they competed on "Jeopardy," or perhaps history goes back only a few decades these days.
The Black Death killed half the population of Europe, estimated at 75 million, when the total population was a fraction of what it is today. There were other disasters of smaller size, but far worse than the flooding, like the post-WWI flu pandemic that killed 3% of the world's population.

Sad yes, but this hardly compares in devastation to things like the 1918 pandemic, the plague or even the Chinese famine.
