The Roman senator Pomponianus was a friend of Pliny the Elder’s and a slightly-above-average-fertile individual who unwittingly caused the Eruption of Mount Vesuvius in the year 79 AD.

Quid est, Pompōniāne? Caudex, cūr nōn remānsistī? Cūrnam caudex remānsistī!
Why this, Pomponianus; why, you moron, did you not stay behind? Why did you remain a moron!
— Pliny the Elder, final words.[1]
