How did the two survivors survive eruption of Mount Pelee in 1902?
The two survivors of the Mount Pelée eruption in 1902 were a prisoner named Ludger Sylbaris and a woman named Célestine. Sylbaris survived by taking refuge in a stone-walled dry well, which protected him from the intense heat and pyroclastic flows. Célestine found shelter in a cave, where she also managed to endure the eruption's devastation. Their survival was largely due to their choice of protective locations that shielded them from the deadly volcanic material.
How many people were killed in the 1902 eruption of Mount Pelee on the island of Martinquie?
The citizens of St Pierre were killed when a pyroclastic cloud consisting of superheated steam and volcanic gases and dust travelled down Mount Pelee to the city. This pyroclastic cloud covered the entire city, instantly igniting everything combustible with which it came in contact. This was followed by a half-hour downpour of muddy rain mixed with ashes. Of the population of between 28,000 and 30,000, there were only two survivors: a prisoner held in an underground cell in the town's jail, later pardoned, and a man who lived at the edge of the city.

It is very unlikely. One of the few survivors of a pyroclastic flow was a man named Ludger Sylbaris. In 1902 he was sent to prison in the city of St Pierre on the French colonial island of Martinique. Not long afterward the nearby volcano Mount Pelee erupted, sending a pyroclastic flow in the the city, leaving Sylbaris as one of only two survivors in the city of over 30,000. Sylbaris was shielded from the worst effects of the flow by his jail cell, but he still suffered 3rd degree burns.
