Johnstown Flood National Memorial. A few people knew this dam was unstable but did nothing about it. The dam broke in 1889 and flooded the town below, killing over 2000 people. I knew nothing about this place until I saw it in my National Parks Passport. It was an interesting stop. #roadtrip #instatravel #nationalpark #johnstownflood (at Johnstown Flood National Memorial) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYBCA8gr4-u/?utm_medium=tumblr

Twenty million tons of water formed a wall 36 feet high and traveled 14 miles at about 40 miles per hour -- striking Johnstown on May 31, 1889, 129 years ago today. #flood #flooding #onthisday #vintage #history #pennsylvania #naturaldisaster #johnstownpa #johnstownflood #flooded #weather #otd #todayinhistory #thisdayinhistory
