FfFfFfFF 58,062 Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 In 79 BCE, the ancient Roman city of Pompeii was buried in the volcanic ash of Mount Vesuvius, a volcano located in Italy’s Gulf of Naples. The bodies of over 1,000 inhabitants have been frozen in the moment of its eruption – including one suspected to be having his own eruption at the time. Tourists coming to Pompeii continue to flock to the ruins of this once vibrant city, often finding themselves shocked by the number of stone phalluses carved into the pavement and walls. If you follow the direction of the shafts, it is claimed, you would find yourself at the nearest brothel – “penis pointers”, if you will. In reality, it is far more likely these phalluses were in fact powerful symbols in Ancient Rome. They functioned as an emblem of good fortune and protection which could ward off the ill-intending visitors and the evil eye. The prominence given to the penis at the time could perhaps explain why our infamous man was so keen to protect it from the explosion. With the masturbating man exploding around the internet, experts were asked to weigh in on what they truly believed had happened. Along with the other victims living around Mount Vesuvius, this man was killed by a hot pyroclastic surge. The effect this heat has on the body is responsible for causing arms and limbs to flex. This effect takes place not only during impact but also post mortem, meaning the bodies continue to change position after death. https://www.iflscience.com/the-explosive-history-of-the-2-000-year-old-pompeii-masturbating-man-64047 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
