About Ludger Sylbaris

Sylbaris was shielded from the immediate blast and its effects, including heat, debris, volcanic gas and ash, in an isolated outdoor jail cell. Four days after the eruption, a rescue team heard Sylbaris' cries from the rubble of the prison. Although badly burned, he survived and was able to provide an account of the event. Sylbaris travelled with the Barnum & Bailey circus and became something of an early 20th-century celebrity.
