      Hold your hat sir, you have been found to be spreading misinformation

      The archeologist opinion is

      Despite the hype, archaeologists have consistently reaffirmed over the years that the formation is natural, not the result of a petrified shipwreck, and that there is no geologic record of a global flood like the one described in religious texts.

          If you don’t want to go into the Noah’s Ark hoax then the Sodom and Gomorrah has no evidence but one city Tall el-Hammam may have had a comet burn up above it.

          It is unknown why people left afterwards though there are theories

          The connection between the two is that oral history is exaggerated so people remember it

      And the tower of Babel? And the ark? And parting the red sea? … ahem… the fairy tales have gotten loose again.

          Normalizing fantasy as reality is not something I deal in. /shrug

      The story reads like a near miss for the protagonist as a volcano wiped out a town, plus many years of improvements to the story

      I’m not planning on watching your video, but I’m sure they found a pillar of salt and generically tested it to find it was actually a god-scorned woman /s
