    I remember my father, who served as an American Soldier during WW2, telling me about watching Vesuvius erupt in '44, from his hospital window. He also spoke about visiting the ruins with his hospital group. It was so touching to him. I've been fascinated because of his experiences.

    We've been pretty lucky that Vesuvius has been relatively dormant since AD 79 and the erruption of 1944 directed itself away from Mussolini's Roman excavations.

There are interesting ruins and reliefs on the Black Desert, dated 8,500 years old. They can only be seen from planes, drones, satellites and helicopters. Archaeologists don't exactly know nowadays what they represent. These ruins really represent embryos of several species in different stages of development and will be able to shed light on the origin of the human being and our planet. When it will be officially confirmed by biologists, this discovery will be a delight for the eyes, shed light to the origin of humanity.

    I very much appreciated this video about a theme I cherish and explore.Most interesting to see the professionalism involved to enable us viewers to see historical events with such unparalleled accuracy. There is so much progress going on in this field... stunning. And the actors are convincing, even make us feel sorry about their fates. I was in particular very interested to see architectural details as original remains and as reproductions. The film will be great and long lasting, just we may feel a bit sorry for all the nice decors which will be recycled after the movie is in the box. I noticed the walls having partially lost the plastering which must have been copied the way it was on the original house in Pompei. Very nice to have such conditions which definitely are more impressive than perfect freshly painted houses as we see them in many older movies about this era. I also noticed the shapes of the stones visible in the parts where the plaster was gone. Slightly rounded edges... I like this style. So here is a comment of a happy viewer sending applause from Sri Lanka. MERCI BEAUCOUP A VOUS TOUS!

      Maybe crushed styrophone painted in gray to harden its surface and add weight could have safely added to the volume effect of falling debris in the back areas. Because in this film the volcanic rain may have been less impressive just because debris pours down mainly in the near foreground.On the other hand real stones and a little bit of "pain" definitely make the actors get the best natural attitude to protect themselves and show suitable facial expressions of fear.
