CT scans show Pompeii victims in clear detail

When Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD, a catastrophic pyroclastic flow buried the town of Pompeii in boiling hot ash. Thankfully, although extremely painful, death would have been pretty instantaneous. Those who survived were the ones who escaped when the volcano started coughing and spewing a couple of days earlier, but those who remained ended up with their bodies frozen in time and today they are a fascination to anyone who looks at them.
CT scans have now shown what is inside the plaster casts.
One thing that is clear, but perhaps not as surprising as the media seem to make out, is that the ancient Romans were much healthier than we are, since their teeth are in such good condition. With very little sugar in their diet and only natural food available, it’s not too surprising when you consider our sugar rich, high fat, chemical laden, and pesticide filled diet of today. In fact it’s not surprising, it’s bloody obvious!
Besides the silly media reports these fascinating images show the poor victims of that most horrendous of natural disasters. The report here says when the cone of the volcano collapsed, it sent an avalanche of mud towards the town. That isn’t true. A pyroclastic flow is an avalanche of super-heated ash that travels at tremendous speeds.
I do despise the mainstream media and their uneducated reporters but, unfortunately, this version of the report does have the best images for everyone to see.
