Insane Volcano That Caused Entire Population's Head To Explode

- In 62 A.D. Mount Vesuvius erupted after being triggered by a massive Earthquake. The volcanic eruption was so deadly that in seconds an entire city was blanketed in ash. There was no escape, and the bodies of the dead were perfectly preserved like ancient mummies. We're talking about the city of Herculaneum, a Roman getaway that ended up being a final resting place for many, when Mount Vesuvius erupted.

If the volcano is still active and hasn’t erupted, and considering what has happened this year, it’s gonna erupt.
True!
Vesuvius going off would not be a big deal really, but Yellow Stone going off would be a much bigger deal
Yep.
I am so freaking done with this year 😐
¡Mama mia!
Volcano: **exists**
Humans: ight, imma live here
Back in 79ad the word volcano didn’t exist. They didn’t know what it was.
the land around volcanoes is extremely fertile, that’s why Pompeii was so wealthy
@@woollyrhinoceros6091 exactly
c a l m - d o w n - b u d d y actual they do know what avolcano is
yeah ik they are idiots

2020 : "WRITE THAT DOWN WRITE THAT DOWN!"
'' Pompei '' is one of the most interesting places in Italy. The city Is intact, and you can walk along the streets where people 2000 years ago walked. It's a dip in the past, It's a very underrated place
Ah yes, go visit a place with gaps in soot where people were fossilized. Very romantic (jk it’s actually a place I wanna visit myself lol)
That's literally the entire earth
Indeed it's beautiful, I was lucky enough to visit 3 years ago
@Rowan Melton depends on when you visit the ruines, in august/July there are a lot of people
@Rowan Melton It's really not, with the whole corona situation, I'm guessing it'll be even less busy whenever the restrictions loosen. If you do travel to Pompeii, trek to the top of Vesuvius, it's a great experience
Mt. Vesuvius left us an impressive preserved record of ancient life.
I learnt in latin class that Herculaneum was better off than Pompeii since the wind was blowing towards Pompeii. It's amazing to think history couldve changed if the wind was blowing in a different direction
No
Rome wasn’t built in a day...
But no one told me that it was ruined in a day.
Ah yes, just like the modern relationship
How come Pompeii is so famous and Herculeneum is almost never heard off? Also sounds like they died horribly
I think that there were a significant number of peoples' likeness, or remains, cast into the ash, at Pompeii. Not so much at Herculinium.
Because they obviously named Pompeii after the song 🤷♂️
Kari only a handful of bodies were ever actually found in Herculaneum. Most of them were found in the boathouses which would have been on the ancient beach. It is guessed that many people would have fled to the beach hoping for a sea rescue, which of course didn’t come. They took shelter in the boathouses, which also meant that when the waves of hot gas did come from the volcano, they stood no chance and died there.

I have been to see both Herculaneum and Pompeii and it's amazing how well preserved it all is. As you walk around both sites, with the volcano looming in the background you can really imagine how terrifying it would be been for the people who lived and died there.
there are some inaccuracies in this video:
- most people in those cities fled when the volcano first started erupting and dumping ash and hot rocks on them. it was those who stayed who died.
- the flows that buried the cities were not lava, but the much faster-moving pyroclastic flows, which are hot, dense mixtures of gas and volcanic ash that caused the exploding heads. if it were lava, there wouldn't have been any ruins, and the people would have been able to escape because lava moves slowly.
- of the people who didn't evacuate when vesuvius started erupting, most of them actually survived the initial ashfall. half of these survivors then tried to escape, with many of them being the ones caught in the subsequent pyroclastic flows. those who remained inside escaped the gas flows, only to slowly asphyxiate, trapped inside on top of a layer of gas-emitting volcanic ash.
Thank you kind sir
Me: *sees exploding heads and volcanoes*
Also me: *clicks*
K
Instant like for talking about Herculaneum instead of Pompeii :D
It's now believed the eruption was on October 24th thanks to new evidence found at a recent dig :)
2020 is taking notes right now
You think so it's 2023 and we still alive
I went to both towns last year. See ing the skeletons in the sheds made me cry. I was so surprised at.just how well Herculeum was preserved. Both are definitely worth going to and I am hoping to go again in the future.
C Stratford, that a interesting thought and I think I might what to try traveling there eventually.
So they never learned a lesson about camping under a Volcano...
jrag1000 nope and it was hundreds of years ago as well
I know you would think so

"Disaster is inevitable here....let's start a life here then."
This is the Comedy Police the joke is too funny
Now that is what I call a splitting headache... :P
[Mind blown]
This is gonna age nicely
@@theunknown5564 AHHHHH SCP NOOOOO
Didn't the ash cloud hit like, 8 hours before the lava began to flow?
I didn't think lava traveled fast enough to travel down the side of that volcano, and engulf the city completely, all in a matter of seconds.
Edit:Yeah, after a brief check, I was right. Only 1 person on Herculinium wasn't killed from the ash cloud. He wasn't even killed by the lava. Instead, he was likely killed by the heat wave temps that preceded the
lava. Temps of 980*+
Not sure where this idea of a whole city having their heads boiled to the point of exploding, came from.
I’ve been to both Pompeii and Herculaneum and it was lowkey terrifying
My emotions are high during corona so believe me when I tell I thought of every person died kids mothers fathers and how much terror they felt and I'm barely holding my tears 😢😭😭
And doggies. There's a perfectly preserved doggo, (even had his copper collar on still. He was found still guarding his master's home.) on his back, that was found on Pompeii. I saw that one up close at an exhibit a couple months ago. It was so surreal and the tragedy really gits you. The reality of it all. It becomes more real and not just something that happened in history.
Sicarri ! What are you getting at? I don’t understand.
@@someoneyoullnevermeetinrea4949 They are saying that the number of people that have died from COVID directly, isn't necessarily as high as is being reported. The individual is saying that it is sad, but it isn't directly killing as many people as the media and others are trying to make it sound like. Hospitals will report a death as being caused by COVID, if the deceased tests positive for COVID, even if they weren'T having any symptoms of it. In doing so, the hospitals get more funding.
For example, a month or two ago, a pregnant woman died from some health issues which where further exacerbated by having COVID-19. She had been 5 months or so along. The doctors couldn't save the baby, though they did deliver him, I believe, because he was too premature. I'm not sure if they even tested the baby for Corona virus. But if they did, it disnt really matter, as they decided that that infant was declared a victim of COVID, and he was listed as a so, showing up as one of the many, many deaths of COVID, even though he may not have even been positive himself.
the numbers by covid might be exaggerated not not, but that most definitely does not lower its danger, stay safe no matter what you believe, know that the virus is not a hoax, don’t fall for the karen’s that cut their mask to breathe better.
Kari I mean this doesn’t really make corona virus less scary, however we do know that typically older people will be more susceptible to the disease. Oh and just to clarify, you guys do believe in corona virus right? Please don’t tell me you think it’s a hoax.
Imagine if you missed your ride to Pompeii on that day
That would have been your unluckiest day and your most luckiest day
Italy: *Exists*
Volcanoes:
I’m gonna do what’s called a pro gamer move.
Vesuvius: *constantly erupts every few hundred years*
Humans: "let's live here knowing well what happened before"
Vesuvius: "Am I a joke to you ?!"
Lol
If I ever complain about another headache....
Nafia Maliat
Ugh, my head is *_killing_* me! It feels like it'll *burst,* it's throbbing so much.
*_P O P_*
You could say the situation in Mount Vesuvius is MIND BLOWING!
And the Oscar for most amazing clickbait title goes to...
huh wym
I’ve been to that place before and it’s quite eerie to be honest. To think all these people were just living their lives one day but then all of them just died. Though seeing the ancient buildings from all the way back then is really fascinating. It’s so cool to think of how they managed to build structures like that all the way back then
Fun fact:you immediately rushed to the comments
Somehow I didn’t lol Idk why normally I would!
Wrong...
I N C O R R E C T
This time I didn’t, most likely because of how interesting the video seemed, I just focused on what he said. I usually do, so I can spend my sweat time trash talking, so I can get some attention, and salt.
Not quite immediately
Volcano: *I can't destroy everything.. But he can!*
Earth quake: *I don't even need to introduce myself*
Humans: *here we go again*
lol volcano vs earthquake fight till death then all of a sudden an asteroid ended the fight
I’ve been on vacation near/on active volcanoes, Vesuvius was actually one of them (the others were Kilauea and Mauna Loa)
What a mind-blowing experience
i
Did you know that you can’t smile and move your eyebrows at the same time?
Just kidding I just wanted to make you smile:)
Lol
Thank bro, made my day hahah
Made my day too lol even though I’ve seen this comment. Hey you can’t breath and smile at the same time! Just kidding just wanted to see the person who made other ppl smile smile
thanks for this!!
You sir are a master mind.
Wow. Another idea to year 2020!!
Well i mean... Yellowstone is overdue for an explosion.
Stop hold that thought and crush it
I love Infographics videos. They teach you at the same time while entertaining you. Cool
MR LEMON me too
Hey, I already live close to one of Midwest's faultlines, I've seen pictures of what an F5 tornado can do, and I've experienced massive flooding in my life twice, so yeah: my fear is essentially zero when it comes to natural disasters!
It's also like how when the Tollund Man was found in Denmark back in 1950, he looked fresh as a daisy, despite having been sacrificed almost 2500 years ago!
I was like, "oh, yeah, Herculaneum. Everyone knows about Pompeii, but why is no one talking about Herculaneum?" and then I remembered I had read about the titular spooky scary explodey skellingtons before and that was yet another childhood trauma thank you very much
Apparently everyone right after Mount Vesuvius erupts and destroys yet another village:
“It’s free real estate.”
So sad... RIP to all who died from this tragic natural
Disaster.
Everybody gangsta till the Volcano 🌋 starts shacking
Shaking you mean 😉
@@SamuelBuckleyScience No Shacking
@@abirdatemytoes4024 Stop trying to r/woosh ppl
walter
Wasn't it technically pyroclastic flow and not lava that killed them?
Yes.
Not technically, that was exactly what it was
The exploding heads aspect would look awesome in a historical movie recreating the disaster.
Pompeii and Herculanum are such impressive sites. Your infographics is really great, but both cities deserve a visit.
Lava flows weren't what wiped out Herculaneum. It was the pyroclastic cloud that swallowed them up in seconds.
I’m currently having a Infographic show marathon
Cool
Wh... who....
It's boring, make some videos related to geo politics
Speaking of heads exploding, has anyone here ever suffered from Exploding Head Syndrome? It's like a volcano going off inside your head.
I've met a few people who have given me EHS just by opening their mouths, you'll have a splitting headache for days trying to figure out what you were told.
Humans: die of volcano
Prehistoric animals: *first time?*
Imagine it being covered by another eruption 😂
It's still pretty mind blowing even now, seeing the old ruins and petrified remains of the settlers.
Apparently the writings of Pliny the Younger about the eruption were so detailed that modern volcanologists have been able to identify specific events in the timeline of the eruption.
The timeline shows 1641, but you said 1631.
dhallftworth1 true
I picked up on that too Lol
Imagine how fresh the air would of been in a 6000 year old coastal town
I heard tell that they also had some people whose brains had turned to glass as well no joke I think this channel did a story on it too
Higly unlikeley since brains arent made of sand but i would be interested in finding the story and checking it out
Thats crazy! I just went to a Pompeii exhibit a couple months ago. They had brought over a bunch of artifacts (including the ash cast forms of a few victims.) from France, to the U.S. It was truly amazing to see. I went 3 times, actually. I never heard mention of any brain preservation, though. Im gonna have took into that one.
Apparently true
@@inhumanfilth681 have you seen some of the people in the comments? Your assumption that they don't have sand for brains is a bold one... 😂
too bad they didnt have news back then like our cable news we got
they could have shows like could Mount Vesuvius erupted turn in at 11:00
11:00 in a 10 minute video. HMMM
I hate how 90% of the video has nothing to do with the title
Love your Videos!
It's so fascinating how you come up with such unique topics. You really did inspire me to start my own channel :)
Nice work! You have a new subscriber
Great stuff
Pompeii: Hey guys, So glad I can do a collab with my good friend Yellowstone, I promise we will have a good time.
Pompeii is really cool and totally worth the vague and confusing signage leading to it. It is huge and not all of it has been uncovered yet. Never been to Herculaneum but my uncle says that it is even better than Pompeii even though it is smaller.
One of the guys who documented the explosion of mt vesuvius is the reason we knew of pyroclastic flows before they were observed with modern technology.
That's quite ... mind blowing!
Something similar to this happened in Montserrat. A series of large eruptions over the course of a few days in 1997 destroyed and buried their capital in ashes. It’s the de jure capital of the island while they build a new capital called Little Bay
You do understand how hot the ash was? Several thousand times the heat needed to bake bread. Lava is melted rock so you can’t last long if you are suddenly engulfed in searing heat that can melt rock.
I learnt about this (not in as much detail) in year 4 (grade 5)
Imagine just vibin and the *rumbe*
people that lived in pompeii: *aight 62 A.D is my year*
volcano: im abt to end there whole career
*A volcano that’s been erupting fairly historically frequently*
2020: these suggestions seem to be getting better and better by the day...
Me: reads title. Also me: wait what?
Lava didn’t flow through the streets, pyroclastic flows of superheated toxic gas and dust blanketed Pompeii and buried the city under metres of volcanic dust. The people of Herculaneum were killed by a pyroclastic surge, a wave of intense heat that boiled their brains and cracked their bones, basically an instant death. People in Pompeii most likely choked to death on the oppressive dust and gas.
I was very fortune to visit Mount Vesuvius earlier this month with my girlfriend. It’s such a beautiful sight into the volcano and around. I’m very glad I could learn about it and it’s history.
Dang, this event was Mind Blowing!!!
Great video. Could you make video about Tambora Mountain Eruption ?. It's more catasthropic than this vesuvius
Enjoy the view!
Until is erupts on you!
**exploding heads*

*me: what a beautiful sight! ahhh.*
Video: posted 9 minutes ago
Video: 10 minutes long
Me: nobody has completely watched this video yet
Bold of you to assume my video playback speed wasnt on 2x
This video has blown my mind;)
* has blown * your mind
@@PureFPSPwnage Thanks for correcting my grammar and imma edit this comment.
That's literally mins blowing 👌
The people were not killed by lava as the video suggests, but by the pyroclastic flow, which is basically a rapid flow of steaming hot gases and ash.
Mount Vesuvius : * Coughs * Everyone : 👀
That title made me think of something completely else...
I like how the rumbling volcano causes the bird to fall from the sky
2020: interesting, very interesting...
What a mind blowing event
Fun fact: this happened on my birthday. =)
When is your birthday?
@matthew styles not what i meant...(get le joke)
Lava never flowed...it was a pyroclastic explosion...
Oh cool.
Everybody gangsta till the mountain starts shakin
Just pretend I typed a worthwhile comment
Would u go on a vacation near an active volcanoes? I have, great trip
My granma' says that the ashes made their way even to our town (250km away)
che sfiga
When the ashes are blown high enough they can land all over the world.
From time to time, we get Saharan sand (mainly dust) raining out of the sky in Holland.
No one:
Mt.Vesuvius:so anyway I started blasting
Wow that information was, dare I say it, mind blowing. 😎
206 comments but nobody has watched the entire video yet
The volcano is the successor to HOKUTO SHINKEN
Why don't our history Teachers just make us watch the Infographics Show?
People: there's a volcano whatever so what it hasn't erupted
Me: please tell me the city that is hundreds of miles far from the volcano
Not much different than what's gonna happen at Yellowstone eventually.
Yo at 5:15 you said “1931” but labelled as ‘1941’ so yeah which one is it haha.
Volcano causes heads to explode.
*MIND BLOWN* 🤯
When an ice cube raps he creates a pyroclastic flow like in this video
I question the intelligence of people who decided to settle on the volcano itself after its history of eruptions.
Plz do more history videos! 🙏🏻
My Brain Trembles
During that time in pompeii according to the study the people of the city thought that it is a mountain. Pompeii citizens died be cause of the lava flows while herculaneum died because of the. Pompeii were preserved and buried while in herculaneum were yeah preserved but died because of the smoke
Indonesia: Let me introduce myself
