| Video Discription | In January 1919, Boston was home to one of the most surreal accidents of all time -- the Great Molasses Flood! Nicole explains the disaster and the physics that made cold molasses so deadly. Featuring original research by Nicole Sharp, Jordan Kennedy (Harvard SEAS), and Shmuel Rubinstein (Harvard SEAS). Written, voiced, produced, edited, and animated by Nicole Sharp. #FYFD #Boston #MolassesFlood -------- Follow FYFD: Website: http://fyfluiddynamics.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/fyfluiddynamics Instagram: http://instagram.com/fyfluiddynamics Patreon: http://patreon.com/FYFD Follow Nicole: Website: http://nicolesharp.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/aerognome ------- Thanks to my Patreon patrons and FYFD supporters who help make FYFD and FYFD video possible!
