1864 — Battle of Kennesaw Mountain
The Battle of Kennesaw Mountain was fought on June 27, 1864, during the Atlanta Campaign of the American Civil War. It was the most significant frontal assault launched by Union Maj. Gen. William T. Sherman against the Confederate Army of Tennessee under Gen. Joseph E. Johnston, ending in a tactical defeat for the Union forces. Strategically, however, the battle failed to deliver the result that the Confederacy desperately needed—namely a halt to Sherman's advance on Atlanta. Sherman's 1864 campaign against Atlanta, Georgia, was initially characterized by a series of flanking maneuvers against Johnston, each of which compelled the Confederate army to withdraw from heavily fortified positions with minimal casualties on either side.

On 27 June 2015, a dust fire occurred at Formosa Fun Coast, a water park in Bali, New Taipei City, Taiwan.

The fire lasted 40 seconds and burned 508 people, killing 15 and leaving 199 in critical condition. Initially, only patches of airborne corn starch caught fire and were extinguished almost instantly, but due to the spraying of carbon-dioxide fire extinguishers by staff towards the participants, along with the running of the participants, the airborne corn starch dispersed into multiple dust clouds which was responsible for most of the burning.
