The Texas City Disaster -- the deadliest and one of history's largest non-nuclear explosions
The Babylonians felt safe prior to being conquered and thus destroyed. Or, the ancient Greek city Helike, a real-life Atlantis - which was reclaimed by the seas by a catastrophic tsunami. Pompeii, an obvious example, was destroyed because of the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. History is marred by tales of prosperous civilizations that had their worlds stolen from them within moments by unbridled violence... there is a city in Texas that also was almost wiped from the face of the earth too.
[WARNING: language]
[TRIGGER WARNING: fire]
If these things scare you or you feel you can't listen please just skip this episode. I'm sure next week's will be easier to enjoy. Thanks for listening.
