Some fake things that aren't real are low key really importsnt

why didn't they just leave pompeii when the volcano erupted? were they stupid?

Fun fact: they did leave Pompeii! It's estimated that the population pre-eruption was something like 20,000, and the most likely number of dead in is in the range of 1,500-4,000. So most people just did leave Pompeii, it's just that not everyone left or could leave.

I'd have still left. the human body is capable of wonderful things in the face of danger

A lot of people died in the boats tho:/

I would have paddled away quickly

The scariest thing about pyroclastic flow is that if you can see it, no matter how far away it is, there is no possible way of surviving

I've done incredible things. I think you'd be surprised.

you should teach them

their brains became AEROSOLS IN THEIR SKULLS.

what?? no

correction, some of their brain cells turned to glass, unless you want to bitch about the Smithsonian's knowledge base. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/mount-vesuvius-turned-mans-brain-cells-glass-180976073/

that just doesn't sound correct. they should verify this information

not only could I survive that, but I could do it a second time

What you seem to not understand is that when volcanoes erupt the way Mount Vesuvius did, your survival is dependant on whether or not you're close enough to a ship when it happens. It doesn't matter how smart you are, your IQ cannot outrun a catastrophic volcanic eruption. If you're going to criticize them for anything, it should be their decision to settle near an active volcano in the first place.

as was previously established, my large IQ can outrun many things, so I do not imagine a volcano would be that much more difficult

yeah okay, ill reblog that

Question/gen if you jumped in the ocean and stayed under for a while could you possibly survive?

you don't need need to do all that. you will find the solution is much simpler

Please, share your wisdom, what is the simple solution!

you just leave

Since you're capable of withstanding a pyroclastic flow, why did you decide to leave?

didn't wanna stay
