Im Jahr 1518 geschah in Straßburg etwas wirklich Seltsames. Die Leute fingen an zu tanzen … und konnten einfach nicht aufhören. Tage vergingen und einige tanzten, bis sie zusammenbrachen. Historiker sind sich immer noch nicht hundertprozentig sicher, warum, aber es ist eines der seltsamsten Ereignisse in der Geschichte.

Maybe a mad chemist accidentally synthesized ecstasy
Maybe they were possessed.
Jinn are known to love dancing
That’s such an interesting time in history! I was just trying to tell a friend about it yesterday but didn’t remember where it happened 😀
Local physicians, working within the framework of [Galenic theory](https://www.cabinet.ox.ac.uk/four-humours-galenic-medicine), diagnosed the dancers as suffering from an excess of “hot blood.” In their view, vigorous movement was the best way to expel the heat. On this basis, the city cleared spaces such as guildhalls and markets, even building wooden stages so the dancers could move freely. Musicians and professional dancers were hired to accompany them. Far from containing the crisis, however, these measures appear to have drawn larger crowds and prolonged the spectacle.
They were having a good time and everyone today shames them
Maybe they just got addicted like we are to scrolling. 100 years from now “2026 scrolling plague affected 99.9% of people in public”
The first diddy party
Maybe they were trying to win a bar
Equivalent to a modern day rave?
All this replies suck. Just a bunch of feds and bots everywhere trying to blend in ffs
Takes me about 6 pints to NGAF🕺🕺🕺🙈
I believe any of these strange phenomena were drug induced- especially at the time, unknowingly. basically anything religious-related as well. you were probably safer around peers at those times saying you saw some biblical shit than admitting you were tripping balls. my favorite is the stoned ape theory. me like shroom 🗿
They all probably just got some dope ass song stuck in their head
The original soul train
Fucking time traveling DJ’s.
Mouldy bread apparantly.
Classic Sanderson sisters.
The discovery of molly
Grok told me that it was the first flash mob in history and after 24 hours of dancing, Strasbourg was covered in cocaine & renamed Studio 54.
No mystery.. this is the year the Henry VIII Songbook compilation was released to celebrate Lornenzo di piero de’medici’s wedding. It was an absolute banger of a compilation of the greatest motets of the time. Commissioned by none other than pope leo x himself who loved the arts. Sometimes the music is just to good to resist.
Rye matting in food cellars made lsd…. Same as Salem
Some DJ time travels back and played an absolute banger rave
