Ving Rhames has questions. The opportunity to investigate them is what motivated the Harlem, New York, native to take on his latest project as the host, narrator, and executive producer of the History Channel’s new show “History’s Deadliest with Ving Rhames.”

“I’ve read about man’s inhumanity to man,” Rhames told The Epoch Times in a recent interview. “Locations where certain disasters happen, I’m wondering, can the soil that something happened on create a certain kind of energy for disasters? I’ve always felt that if you do evil on a certain soil, the evil just doesn’t go away.”
