Watch Disasters of the Century Season 3 Episode 13 Molasses Flood on Bad Day HQ

The Great Molasses Flood, also known as the Boston Molasses Disaster or the Great Boston Molasses Flood, occurred on January 15, 1919, in the North End neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts, in the United States. A large molasses storage tank burst, and a wave of molasses rushed through the streets at an estimated 35 miles per hour (56 kilometers per hour), killing 21 and injuring 150. The event has entered local folklore, and for decades afterwards residents claimed that on hot summer days the area still smelled of molasses
