Did some people survived from that town "Pompeii" and other nearby town which got destroyed. Do we have any theory or evidence suggesting that there might be some people or maybe many people who had survived that destruction ?

People still do that today. They think that it won't be so bad, so they don't go. Most of the time, they're right, and it doesn't even become newsworthy. But sometimes it does, like New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina. For the Pompeii disaster, they had lived through previous earthquakes. There were just things to fix, but things were mostly fine. Except that final time was much worse, and there wasn't a city to even return to.

I visited Pompeii 3 years ago and let me tell you, it was a rather fascinating and unsettling experience at the same time. Right at the entrance you can see some of those "living statues" with terrified expressions on their faces. Some of them were apparently sleeping (and I personally think that was the best way to go), some others seem to be grasping for air or for some high ground. Later I could see tons of skeletons hidden inside what looked like a cave, I suppose they tried to seek for a shelter but... Anyway, I really recommend to whoever has the opportunity (and when this pandemic finally ends) to pay even a small visit to Pompeii: you won't be disappointed.

There is this... powerful attachment we have to the place we live. Especially people from the older generation. It's not easy to move, it's not easy to abandon a place you call home, which can be like a family member, at the first sign of danger. I move quite easily, because I moved a lot when I was a kid. But I encountered how stubborn people can be first hand when we experienced flooding in Bangkok. We have money, we could have gone north. "But what about thieves, what about our valuables?" "Life is more important than..." "So we are just going to abandon our home every year?" It's gotten so bad my friend had to trick his parents to evacuate (he drove them while they were asleep in his car). Of course, hindsight is 20/20; but at the time we don't know how big or small the catastrophe in front of us are going to be. They record big events, but they never record thousands of false alarms too. So when people say "why don't you move..." Like, where is completely safe? Just in the US alone, California has earthquake, north west has wild fire, the Gulf has hurricane, the north east has blizzard, the middle has tornadoes and mudslide. People are never sure when to just abandon everything and make a break for it, it's not an easy decision to make. Hopefully we never have to make that decision.

My fiancé, his family and I went to Italy for a family trip a couple months ago and we were able to go see Pompeii and it was both sad and amazing experience. We saw the poor cascaded bodies by the entrance and feel bad for those poor people but then we felt so much admiration for all they had accomplish nearly 2000 years ago. The streets, the buildings, the paintings, it was all amazing. And we were also amazed on how far away the infamous volcano was and was reminded on the sad tragedy that happened. We paid our respects to the cascaded bodies on our way out.

He couldn't wait to get married to the love of his life and the wedding was only a day away .But in the end , there would be no wedding to celebrate. It was heartbreaking watching him wait for her to return, but she never came . And he dosent know whats happened to her . And the fact that he died waiting for her makes my heart break even more. I hope he can be with his fiance in the afterlife ❤

Went to Pompeii this July and it’s crazy, tiles on the floor look like they were just put in, Led pipes are still intact around the city. The mosaics in some of the building are astounding, we reached the main forum of the city and it’s a direct view of Vesuvius it’s really jarring, because the volcano looks like it could erupt at any moment and you’re standing in the middle almost of an ancient city that was completely destroyed by it, truly an experience with an emotion you can’t describe. It’s not a journey for everyone tbh, it gets pretty hot and there’s a lot dust that isn’t helped by the wind but if you do have the ability to go I highly recommend it!

One thing I noted is that you said that "they realized they were in the shadow of a volcano" from several sources I've looked at, it's very likely that they had no idea what was happening which makes it even scarier. To have your entire world changed in a metaphorical instant. Still that one observation aside, this was a very well done snapshot into that horrible two-three day span. On an aside, a couple of weeks ago I saw some art that reminded me of this subject and I have been piecemeal poking a fictional account placing some cartoon characters I'm fond of to see houw they might react to these events.

As someone who's seen both Pomeii and Herculaneum last year, both are incredible to see, but at Herculaneum there is a lot more left to see of the actual buildings. Having seen the boat cellars I can only imagine what kind of horrible death those people must have suffered. The statues/bodies in Pompeii are scary, but seeing the skeletons of actual people in those cellars is another thing. Pompeii is very widely known for this story, but visiting Herculaneum is just as interesting.

A bunch of people were found at the waterfront in Herculaneum. Several hundred from what I understand. Clearly run there to get on boats and then trapped in the holding areas trying to hide. Herculaneum was closer to Vesuvius than Pompeii and on the opposite side. If you'd tried to escape Pompeii by boat before about 1pm you'd have made it because the pumice didn't start causing fires until estimated 3pm. To make it on foot going away from the volcano you'd have to have started walking around 8am when the first smoke plumes began to accompany the earthquakes. This fascinates me. I have to get there to see if before I check out.
