The recent eruption is believed to be the biggest new after a dormant period of 2 years. In December 2018, Krakatoa eruption had killed over 400 people with partial collapse of the caldera. The much deadliest form was seen way back in 1883, when its violent eruption created huge Tsunami waves of over 42 meters of heights in the Sunda strait killing over 36000 people.
