The 1911 Deadly Heat Wave and Made Many People Mad



In July 1911, along the east coast of the United States, temperatures rose to exceed 40 degrees celsius and lasted for 11 days. In addition to killing residents, the incident made many people almost crazy.

At the end of Pike Street, in Manhattan, a young man jumped off a pier and plunged into the water after hours trying to take a nap in a shady corner. Before jumping, he said: "I can't stand it anymore!".

Meanwhile, in Harlem, an overheated worker tried to crash himself in front of the train and had to be detained by the police.

The US streets are full of violence. Residents running around like crazy because of the heat. One of the drunks even attacked the police with a meat knife because he could not stand the extreme temperatures.

In an age where there were no air conditioners and electric fans, many people had difficulty surviving this deadly heat.

June passed easily enough, but afterwards, a sweep of hot, dry air from the southern plains depressed the happiness of the sea breeze.

In Providence, Rhode Island, the temperature rises 11 degrees in half an hour. New York and Philadelphia became the center of chaos, while in New England, railroads curved, mailing was delayed, and people died under the sun.

The death toll is estimated at two thousand in just a few weeks.

Poor ventilation and cramped living quarters make matters worse. Old people, young people and small children become victims of heat waves. Babies cry all night, or can't wake up at all.

Not only did they die from a direct heat stroke, but they were also exhausted while trying to escape the blazing air. In addition, around 200 people died from drowning in the sea, ponds, rivers and lakes, in an effort to refresh the body.

Besides humans, horses also die and are left to rot along the road.

When the hot air reaches its peak, the residents leave their apartment and sleep on the cold grass. They take a nap under a tree in Central Park and look for shade in Battery Park.

In Boston, around five thousand people choose to spend the night at Boston Common and avoid the risk of suffocation in their own homes.
