   1800's London was super fucked up. People died from all sorts of dumb ass shit like electrocuting/burning themselves in the tub, or intentionally/unintentionally consuming/absorbing toxic chemicals, or just disease from shitty water supply. The pollution was worse than anything else that has ever existed on Earth since. There were reports of urine in the streets being so concentrated that it would change the color of the bricks in buildings. People back then shit in 'cesspools' which were basically just holes in your backyard to shit and piss in and then leave there forever and ever. They didn't have a decent sewage system like some other big cities at that time did.
