C'est pas sorcier -POMPEI

The official channel of the France 3 program. It's Not Rocket Science, the science and discovery magazine. It's Not Rocket Science takes us to the heart of Pompeii, a ghost town that transports us back two thousand years to the time of the Romans. Life came to an abrupt halt in the 1st century AD when, on August 24, 79 AD to be precise, Mount Vesuvius erupted. In just a few hours, this small market town completely disappeared, buried under several meters of ash and volcanic rock. Its inhabitants, caught in the middle of their daily activities, didn't have time to flee. A remarkable glimpse into life in Antiquity has been unearthed by excavating beneath the ashes of Pompeii. Fred, Jamy, and Sabine lead us on a journey to discover this snapshot of the 1st-century Roman Empire.
