Unbelievable but TRUE — Boston was once hit by a **syrup tsunami**. 🍯🌊 In 1919, an ordinary industrial tank filled with molasses didn’t just leak… it *exploded*, unleashing millions of gallons of sticky syrup into the streets of Boston.
What followed sounded like a joke — but it was a nightmare. A 25-foot wave of molasses raced through the city at terrifying speed, smashing buildings, derailing trains, and trapping people and horses in a thick, deadly flood. As the syrup cooled in the winter air, escape became almost impossible. What should’ve been harmless sugar turned into quicksand. 💀
The disaster killed 21 people, injured over 150, and left an entire neighborhood buried under brown sludge. And the worst part? It was completely preventable. The tank had been poorly built, never tested, and known to leak — but warnings were ignored in the rush for profit during World War I.
👉 In this video, we uncover how negligence, greed, and bad engineering caused one of the strangest disasters in American history — and how the Great Molasses Flood changed safety laws forever.
