Animation made for the Melbourne Museum , which recreates how the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius and the destruction of Pompeii.

You can witness the eruption of a volcano of over 2000+ years ago.....
Be alert to EVERYTHING ( sights & sounds) that is happening including:
1. The clouds gliding by,
2. The birds fleeing,
3. The dogs barking,
4. The first steaming of the volcano,
5. The earthquakes,
6. The tiles falling from the roofs because of the earthquakes,
7. The sky turning dark with volcanic debris,
8. The accumulating debris on the roofs,
9. The pyroclastic flows coming down the left side of the mountain,
10.The fires,
11. The buildings collapsing,
12. The pyroclastic flows overcoming the city, 
13. The end of the city...... :-(
