I've been fascinated by Pompeii since I was probably 10 years old. I'm 73 now. I always thought I'd visit someday but I'm afraid that's not going to happen. I love this video. It's the best I've watched. I feel like I am there.
I was there in 1967. The only thing I remember were the human castings and Mt. Vesuvius itself. I was scared that she was going to blow and bury me. Hope to get back now that I can appreciate the city. Thanks for the videos!
We were there in September of 2022 and it was an amazing and also a very humbling experience. A lot of ghosts walking around! Thank you for taking me back. 😊
Thank you for this. We were there in 2017 and enjoyed it but it was 50degC and climbing the tower was O-U-T of the plans so it was nice to see the panorama.
It's so hard to think an entire town could be buried like that for 2000 years, I'm itching to see Pompeii and Herculaneum but alas I have two autistic children and no funds so I'll just have to stick to dreaming and watching these tour videos
It is amazing to me that the Roman populations where so ahead of us.Lately a group of Japanese geologist discovered a very large home around the base of the Vesuvio,with running water and a large water heater. Most likely a volcanic source,since there wasn't any electricity.They think this may be the home of Cesar, and his final resting place.
At 11:30 to 12:15. How the heck are all those big as tree pillars just snapped off all about same height ? Pyroclastic flow ? And just the scalped head on the centaur ? What are archeologists stories here ? And just where are all the pillar pieces ?? And those thin very high up white pillars all intact, even tho roof totally wipes. How ?
well, the body tissue decomposed, thus the void spaces they cast. And the bones are part of the casts, as you may see occasionally by some skullparts and teeth being visible. So these casts should be treated acc. respectful
