      On August 24, after centuries of dormancy, Mount Vesuvius erupts in southern Italy, devastating the prosperous Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum and killing thousands.

      This date is important to me because this is the day I was born. It was pretty cool to see what happened on my birthday thousands of years ago
