In 1919, a giant tank burst in Boston, releasing 2 million gallons of molasses.

The disaster was so powerful it ripped buildings off their foundations — and for decades, locals swore the streets still smelled like molasses on hot days. #HistoryReel #ViralHistory #MolassesFlood #BostonHistory #WeirdHistory #DarkHistory #StoryTime #DidYouKnow #HistoryTok #USHistory |
