    Ugh, what a mess that must have been. Imagine how long that stuff coated everything.

      They say on hot days you can still smell it almost 100 years later.

      yeah. the truth is, after the gallons fell away from the city and went into the sea, there was still a lot of residue. so if you sat on a bench in the park, u stuck to it. Many ppl had to take off their trouser's before getting off public bench XD. what was worse, ppl couldn't wash the stuff away with regular water. So they brought in the fire department, and they used seawater to "cut" through the molasses

    Paint it brown to cover leakage? That's a pro gamer move.

    I have one of those gallon mason jars completely packed with the original molases collected from the site only hours after the incident. It's extremely dark now similar to tar/degreaded petroleum or something similar. The cap is Somewhat sealed with a dated portion of newspaper adhered to the lid and jar rim to prevent it being opened. It was originally collected by the owner of my home who had an assistant collect a sample and transport it back to central ma. I found the jar among other things in the spacing above the drop ceilings for plumbing access, presumably it was placed there just to temporarily keep it out of the way but was sealed in after the owner unexpectedly passed and a majority of the belongings dispersed as the home partially functioned as a facility for his medical practices. I also can't dig in my yard without finding bones literally scattered everywhere because an old church and cemetery next to my home had been demolished in the 60s, and apparently grave removal doesn't get everything. I don't have time to deal with that so I've just been dumping them down the sewage inlet in the street for years now.

    I looked up exploding molasses because my plastic bottles of molasses keep exploding. its happened when there's about half a bottle left, its happened when the lids facing up and down, its like it comes alive and wants out, so weird.

      Kid With A Tie Vlogs I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic, but in this time period molasses was used more commonly in recipes than sugar, it was also more affordable for the average citizen.

    The causes aren't a mystery (Why repairing or properly maintaining anything, when you can just hide the damage with paint?), it's just the lack of proper maintenance because that's what companies did in the "simpler times" without pesky health and safety regulations getting in the way of progress (can't make an omelette without killing some peo'ple in industrial accidents, you can look at it as natural selection).
