I have heard of the Cocoanut Grove Club fire in the past. However, this is the first time I am hearing it with so much detail of the prior to, during, and aftermath of the fire. Thank you for all the research you put into your narrations. You add much to the historical perspectives of the events you describe.

Those kids who survived the school explosion were incredibly insightful in their appraisal of the mourning parents. They offered a grace that wasn’t extended to them. They were blamed for being victims, suffered survivors guilt, yet still didn’t lash out publicly at those who hated them. I hope they eventually found some closure and solace

Yes, I have never lost a child but I also could never hate children that survived when mine didn't or say such awful things about them. They were children and none it it was their fault. I can imagine thinking if they survived why couldn't my child but that is it. I know I would never wish death upon the kids that did survive. I can say that with certainty. Grief and anger only goes so far and was not an excuse for the behavior or comments of those parents. It really disgusted me to my core to hear that.

Yes, that was featured on an episode of The Crown. I'm pretty sure that was the first I'd heard of that event but I do live in the U.S. I know quite a lot about English and UK history but mostly much older history. That was such an awful thing. I used to teach and I can't imagine what the teachers and students went through and the absolute devastation the entire town went through. All for such an avoidable disaster.

To this day, I find it when I first walk into an unfamiliar place.

My husband's mother was pre-school age at the time of the New London School explosion. She lost a brother & sister and another sister, one of those thrown from the building, never walked without assistance again. Their father was one of the oilfield workers helping dig through the rubble. I learned all this from my husband after making an offhand remark about the smell of natural gas. He asked if I knew why it was there, told me his family story, and I investigated further online. I cannot imagine what it was like for my MIL, growing up in the shadow of that horror.

My niece and her friend were killed in a car accident. My feelings for the driver who wasn't ment to drive at night and was speeding make sense, I hate him I blame him and I can't forgive. There was one other survivor and I cannot understand my feelings for her, I'm jealous she survived, I'm jealous and saddened that she got to have kids and my niece didn't and it breaks my heart to see her. Even though this is how I feel I would never tell her any of that, it wasn't her fault, she wasn't driving. So I kinda understand why they felt this way but it should never have been said to those poor kids.

For some reason, one of the nuns in my grade school thought telling us how people were burned alive in the Coconut Grove fire was an appropriate story for school kids. It was probably the first time I ever considered that something like that could happen. Thanks, Sister. I've had this sad tale in mind for decades now. eta - Along the same lines, you had a quote that God took the best kids in the New London Fire. There was a famous Catholic school fire in 1958, Our Lady of the Angels. My understanding is that child survivors were told the same thing - God took the best kids and left you. Nice.

@calendarpage, I too went to Catholic school and I believe I got an excellent education & learned values and ethics. However, some of the stories & "penny lectures" the nuns told did more harm than good. Everything was a sin and we were constantly told how we were likely out of the state of grace. I remember one penny lecture about how a boy had raised his fist in anger to his father (note: the boy didn't hit him, just raised his fist). Later the boy was playing by the railroad tracks and a train sped past cutting his arm off! Sweet Jesus. Can you imagine telling that to third graders?!

Great production on all your stories. I am familiar with the Texas City Blast and thought I would bring up a similar one in Halifax, NS, Canada in 1917, 30-years before. It was uncannily similar. A French ship carrying large amounts of explosives (WWI) collided with a Norwegian ship, caught fire and detonated in Halifax Harbor. Almost 1,800 died, 10,000 were injured, and supposedly the biggest man-made explosion at the time. If you see the picture of the explosion, it looks like a volcano erupted. They say it even caused a tsunami in the river/channel where it detonated forcing large ships up onto ground. Pictures of buildings blown away just like Texas City went through.

Thanks for the wonderful compilation. It is very interesting to hear about all those peculiar disasters in England and US. It reminds me of the stories we heard as kids about the burning of the Leiden city hall on the 12th of February 1929. It was so cold (- 15 °C) that the hoses from the firefighters froze. Even one of the firefighters froze during the event. I believe they caught the event on film if you're interested.

Absolutely incredible stories! Causes? Many. Mostly man’s carelessness and hubris. What makes me very sad was the loss of so many children.🥰love to those who lost so much.

Such a tragic story, I have heard this one a number of times. And always leaves me choked up and full of dread knowing that anytime this could happen again somewhere. My husband burned to death on his motorcycle and in his lungs were totally charded just like the outside of his skin. What must have happened to those people I can only imagine and picture quite clearly in my mind due to the horrific event that happened to my husband. I was raised out in the southwest and we rarely have two-story buildings around here. Now I live in a little town of mining houses that are all made of wood and adobe brick. The town folks are extremely aware of the possibilities of a fire breaking out as it had happened last spring. Lucky it was in the middle of the night and no one was in the building. Thank you for your extreme subject matter on the olden days I certainly love your voice a narrative along with some really good pictures!

10:57 Thank you for taking the time to include the photographs of those who lost their lives in this tragedy. I took care to look at each face and imagine what their lives might’ve been like before the disaster; what sort of people they were. I see many smiles, some of them almost contagious. I imagine those belonged to the entertainers- the comics, always cracking jokes around their friends and families- or maybe they just belonged to those who Loved Life. I see handsome young men, and I see beautiful women. Cherished sons; beloved daughters. I wonder how many broken hearts they left in their passing. I see older gentlemen and women. Fathers and mothers; perhaps even grandparents. Some are refined and stoic; others are grinning ear to ear. I see free spirits. Social butterflies. Studious students. Hardworking busybodies. Carefree retirees. Often times, old black and white photos can almost open up a rift between ‘people now,’ and ‘people then’. It’s important to make a conscious effort to overcome that; and look past the grainy black and white to see those within for who they were and still are; people. People just like you and me. What a heartbreaking tragedy… May they forever rest in peace.
