A few yards from him, two train cars had been knocked from the tracks and thrown into nearby lampposts, knocking them free from the ground. So the lampposts are flying. Like, this is literally catastrophic. A disaster. Apocalyptic. Just things, houses, trains, cars flying everywhere. And it's probably not occurring to anyone in the moment that it's molasses.

So they're probably just like, what the fuck is this? Like, how would you even... It would never occur to you that that's molasses. Like, what the fuck is this? Right.

at the diner on commercial street across from the wharf robert burnett was eating lunch with his family when the tank burst he said there was a rumble no roar or explosion that's what he told the boston post and he said i thought it was an elevated train until i heard a swish as if a wind was rushing then it became dark i looked out the window and saw this great black wave coming it didn't rush it just rolled slowly it seemed like the side of a mountain falling into space

Oh, God. Of course it came quickly, but we all had a chance to jump and run before the windows began to crack. Then it poured molasses. Holy shit. Like, what? How do you even, like, look at that and... How do you even do anything? I'd be like, what is happening right now? I'd be frozen with fear.

He grabbed his family and they fled the restaurant. But by the time they'd reached the front door, the molasses had reached the top of the 14-step flight of stairs, blocking the only exit. Oh, no. Instead, the Burnetts rushed up to the roof where they watched in absolute horror as the entire neighborhood was overtaken by this flood.

Now, naturally, those closest to the tank suffered the worst of the damage. A freight agent at the Boston and Worcester Street Railway Company, H.M. Dorley, was working in one of the sheds about 15 feet from the tank when he heard the giant, loud, massive crack and the ground shook. So weird, as you're saying that, the wind is going crazy and shaking the house. It did.

Doralee told the post, the broken parts of the tank missed our shed only by a matter of inches. Wow. If they had stuck it, well, I wouldn't be talking with you. Damn. Parts of the tank struck other houses and they crumpled like eggs. How we escaped, I am at a loss to explain. Little short of a miracle. To say a house cracked like an egg. Crumpled like an egg. Crumpled like an egg. Oh my God. Yeah.

He's awoken the people to a true issue. Finally, maybe this would lead rich and powerful people to acknowledge the barbaric nature of our health care system.

B.E. Kingsley, who was a worker at the Bay State Railway, was equally as close to the tank when it broke. He said where the tank stood, there was no tank. Instead was a mighty wall of some kind, a giant wave of molasses, and it was sweeping rapidly down upon the office, gaining momentum every second. I turned and ran into the outer office, calling a warning into the clerks there.

so he and his co-workers ran for the exit but it was too late because a 15-foot wave of molasses hit the building and sent everyone and everything inside flying as the building collapsed around them jesus it wasn't just those working under the tank or near the tank that suffered though as more than two million gallons of molasses was tearing through the very narrow streets
