@strangedocent: 10,000 Snails died for ONE shirt. You are wearing Purple? 😈 In Ancient Rome, that was Illegal. Only the Emperor could wear "Tyrian Purple". Why? Because it was made from Crushed Sea Snails. 🐌 It took 10,000 snails to dye just ONE robe. And it smelled like rotting meat. 🤢 Now? It's just chemicals. You are wearing the color of Kings for $10. 👇 Would you wear a shirt made of 10,000 dead snails? Yes or No? 👇 #shorts #history #purple #tyrianpurple #fashion #romanempire #chemistry #weirdhistory #strangedocent #fyp #mindblown
