The Black Swan Event in Jerusalem in 70 CE

 

Thanks to Jeff Bezos, the creator of Amazon, people around the world learned about black swan events. A black swan event is a single improbable event with enormously far-reaching consequences. The destruction of Jerusalem in 70 CE was the black swan event.
