I've said it before and I'll say it again. This channel has perfected the style of presenting a topic and listing examples. You'd think it would be easy, but the way this one is actually informative, not spastic with the editing, and fun even when it's dark topics sets it apart from most other even bigger channels.

I am from the Philippines. Thank you for including Taal Volcano. It is actually located in Batangas. There are also two more dangerous volcanoes in our country. Mount Pinatubo in Pampanga and Mount Mayon in Albay.

Did you know sakurajima is The youngest vent of the Aira Caldera supervolcano? It considered to be the dangerous active volcano in japan because it's youngest vent of Aira supervolcano and also significantly dense populated area... Speaking of taal in my country (Philippines) according to geology hub you only know it's a small creater lake volcanic island in the center of the lake (wrong) in reality it is quite Large. The boundary of taal is the whole lake. The taal lake use too be a caldera. It is form by ancient super massive or Caldera forming collapse eruptions. The volcano island there start to form in 1580's when volume of ignimbrigh lava erupted into the lake caldera floor...

I don’t even like volcanoes but the way this channel explains it makes it seem so interesting and crazy to learn about 💯

[f-enthusiast]

He puts Yellowstone in as a bonus stating that it’s a super volcano. But fails to mention the fact that Vesuvius is a part of the Phlegraean Fields, which is considered a super volcano as well

My Father told me, “There is no such thing as a dead Volcano. Only dormant. He was the first black double PhD.

[MrDfbwa]

Interesting video. One mistake I noted was that at 7:55 it was stated that the Yellowstone Caldera is located in the northeast corner of Wyoming. It is actually in the northwest corner.

I'm shocked Campii in Italy (which historically is on par with Yellowstone) and "The great Mother" (A volcano in Turkey thought to have changed the course of the river Eurphrates into a practical ditch around the mountain are not on this list. Campii is just a few miles from Vasuvius and 100 times larger, and the Great Mother may cause the most devastating flood to ever been seen in the middle east in the modern Era.

Aaand one day later we get one of the biggest eruptions ever in recent history

I live in Kagoshima. We don't have shelters in the city. They are in the towns and along the roads circling Mount Sakurajima. It is populated though there is a no go zone of a few km. Drills are also done on the Sakurajima side where most would probably have only the water to escape since the one road out could very well be blocked again (because it's built on the narrow section that a previous major eruption joined the island to the mainland). We in the city can just hop in our cars and drive away.
Sakurajima is constantly active. We've only had 4 official eruptions since January 1st but there are loads of little pops and times of just constant smoking clouds. Ten years ago we were having 1, 000 eruptions a year. Very inconvenient when winds being ash to where you are.

I don't get why the Icelandic volcano and Kilauea make this list. Both of these mainly cause property damage and flight disruptions and any major eruptive event ist not in sight. Meanwhile there are other options like the Nyiaragongo which has over 100kph fast Lava flows and could trigger a limnic eruption in Lake Kivu that could kill over 1 million people

Taal has potential to affect the National Capital Region (NCR). It includes 17 cities. The regional center is the City of Manila. NCR population is about 13, 500, 000.

Anak Krakatao ("Child of Krakatoa") has continued to build itself between Java and Sumatra. I wouldn't want to be nearby if it gets another case of indigestion!

[stanhamilton]

Actually Yellowstone lies mainly in the NorthWest corner of Wyoming and not in the NorthEast corner! However, there's Devil's Tower in the Northeast corner of the state and that's pretty awesome as well! Go to Billings and southward to Laurel, then take 212 into the North entrance for the most incredible journey you've ever seen!

[HuntersMoon]

Yeah 1362 is just a smidge before Youtube

[seththebest]

Please take note of this the Pronunciation of Taal Volcano is- Ta al Volcano not Tall Volcano.

The one on the thumbnail is Mt. Pinatubo

[anthonyappleyard]

Near Sakurajima, the schoolchildren have to wear building-site-type helmets in case the volcano throws stones.

[kittycat]

You missed two Supervolcanoes; Toba, Indonesia and Campi Flegrei, Italy :)
