August 24, 79 AD – Mount Vesuvius Erupts
What Does a Natural Disaster Accident Look Like?
One thousand nine hundred and forty-five years ago, Mount Vesuvius erupted, burying Pompeii and Herculaneum under volcanic ash and mud. The pyroclastic blast, volcanic ash, and mud killed thousands of people. For more information, watch the documentary videos below…
The volcano had been dormant for 2000 years. Then, a sudden eruption. Could have the loss have life been prevented? Or was this just a natural disaster?
I visited Pompeii. It was quite amazing. I’d recommend it to anyone visiting Italy.
