NAPLES – The Swiss said so.Even if in the meantime the Rsi documentary that foreshadowed the destruction of Naples by the magmatic explosion of the Campi Flegrei supervolcano it is no longer on Youtube, it has remained in popular suggestion.Now that the earth trembles, and trembles more and more often, the thought returns (a little lateral, hidden shamelessly in the less rational portion of the mind) to those images: Piazza del Plebiscito in flames, the burning clouds melting the city, the only hill of San Martino spared (it is not clear why, given that the ashes should fall plumb from the stratosphere) in a post-atomic landscape.With Vesuvius, this time blameless, as the backdrop to the total devastation.It's as if that had become the nightmare of Neapolitans, an idea (totally out of scientific grace) of what could be and fortunately isn't.When it went viral there was talk, not surprisingly, of malicious induction of panic.And here we are:every shock, a shiver.

Despite the whole rosary of corollary spells, returns as a constant reverberation “Naples, the supervolcano that threatens Europe”.42 minutes and 24 seconds during which, in a crescendo of anxiety and tension, the experts spoke and the graphic animation did the rest:the Campi Flegrei described simplistically as a huge boiling pot, which “looms over the whole of southern Italy.“Some scientists believe that the Campi Flegrei are responsible for the disappearance of Neanderthal man, 40 thousand years later there are signs of awakening, catastrophe could strike at any moment.”This was the tone.The Swiss had seen us ahead:bradyseism is the best possible driving force for a TV product.Work a little at a time.And it leaves an indelible mark on people's fear.
