The Day the Clock Stopped: The Great Molasses Flood of 1919 🕰️🌊

Описание: The Day the Clock Stopped: The Great Molasses Flood of 1919 🕰️🌊
It sounds like a dark fairy tale, but it was a terrifying reality. On an unusually warm winter day in January 1919, a massive storage tank burst in Boston’s North End. It unleashed not water, but a 25-foot tidal wave of thick, sticky molasses moving at 35 mph.

Buildings were smashed into kindling, an elevated train track was ripped from its foundations, and people were trapped in waist-deep goo. In this episode of Whispers of Time, we investigate the strangest and undeniably stickiest disaster in American history—a tragedy where the sweet smell of sugar became the scent of death.

🕯️ What you’ll discover:

The shocking engineering failures that led to the disaster.

Horrifying eyewitness accounts of the "brown wave."

Why locals said you could still smell molasses in Boston decades later.

The landmark legal battle against corporate negligence that followed.
