Movie:Pompeii-The last day 2003

Tweet

Take a step back in time via this engrossing program and visit the fabled "vanished city" on its last day, when Vesuvius erupted in a 24-hour reign of terror that covered the ancient town with tons of lava and mummified many of its inhabitants. On August 24 in the year 79 A.D., the Italian seacoast town witnessed day turning into night as 4 billion tons of pumice, rock and ash burst forth from the neighboring volcano. -Netflix This was a very interesting way to show what happened on that horrible day. I really enjoyed watching this and found it to be done very well, it was almost like a movie at times. It is really sad to know what happened to the people and what they went through. I feel that this is a good way to tech us about the past because it is always good to know what has happened so we can prepare for it in the future. I could only imagine what it would be like living at the bottom of a volcano, I personally think it would be scary because I would always have that reminder of where I live. But I have seen pictures of Pompeii today and it is a very beautiful place and I wouldn't mind visiting it someday but as for living there I am not too sure about that. :)
