In 79 AD, Mount Vesuvius erupted and buried the Roman city of Pompeii under millions of tons of ash and pyroclastic rock — killing thousands in a matter of hours. This is the full story of Pompeii's last day: from the tremors that warned no one, to the moment the city was frozen in time forever. Based on the accounts of Pliny the Younger, the only eyewitness to leave a written record of the eruption, this narration reconstructs every phase of the disaster — the pumice rain, the darkness at noon, and the pyroclastic flows that ended everything. Ancient Rome never forgot Pompeii. Neither should we.
