Forget Yellowstone! A Mega Volcano x10 Bigger Is About To ERUPT

Forget Yellowstone! A Mega Volcano x10 Bigger Is About To ERUPT! Apolaki Caldera volcano eruption | benham rise | world's largest caldera | pacific ocean supervolcano | yellowstone supervolcano

The Apolaki Caldera, recently discovered and now recognized as the world’s largest known caldera, represents a significant threat. Although it may not be as famous as the Yellowstone or Toba Supervolcanoes, its potential impact on the Earth should not be underestimated. In today's video, let's delve into the dangers of the Apolaki Caldera, compare it with the Yellowstone Caldera, and explore the devastating consequences of a possible eruption.

the last sentence of it’s wikipedia description states the apolaki caldera has been inactive for millions of years.

[symmetry]

Yes, most volcanoes are under water, not only because 2/3 earth cover is ocean but because those areas are nearer to mantle or to core.

As far as mother earth is concerned we are nothing more than a bunch of ants crawling around on her outer surface.
We are not a worry to her.

Mother Earth needs a cleansing from the evil which inhabits Her.

From what i see here, this is a comparison of a subduction zone, crustal volcano, and a mantle plume volcano. But while both are volcanoes, they are not the same at all. I fear a mantle plume volcanoes destructive potential far more.
But if I'm starving and freezing to death in a volcanic winter, i don't believe it would matter much.

[christinejorja]

Click bait title and so much misinformation.

[markmengelkamp]

I really enjoy hearing about these types of things, for the information of the possibilities. When you consider the fact we can do zilch about future eruptions, "We have nothing to worry about." Awesome!

[Carvetii]

About to erupt my arse. Click bait title

[OkieJammer]

There are 70-90, 000 unexplored undersea volcanoes on this beautiful planet. Most are active.

I might be wrong, but I don't think a " supervolcano" can exist without a mantle plum coming from the outer core and lower mantle boundary, ~2900km/1800 miles below our feet. The magma production from the subduction isn't hot enough and has not the needed volume.

Im from Philippines and it's very scary hope our government focusing on this kind event... 🙏🙏

[WaZaaap]

Lava+water=huge explosive force. So Not Only caldera is super large, but there's a LOT of water over it. We should just sit and pray that it will never erupt..

[justinw]

I always thought the next super volcano will be somewhere we won't know about. Yellowstone probably won't even go in our life time same with campi flegrei toga or long valley.

[marionchase-kleeves]

What about the hidden caldera that is under the ocean and has the Kracatoa volcano on its rim. How big is that?

[jamesmatheson]

What we are supposed to do is make 6 km balls and put them in the water and the humidity will rise to the top of the ball and turn into snow and it will drop the temperature in the water and we are supposed to be able to make enough 6 km balls that we can remake the Arctic anywhere the reason this is happening is because the lava is trying to make another Mountain so that snow will form on top of the mountain and drop the temperature inside of the water

Remember this volcano is underwater this drastically changes the dynamics I want involved they would be November massive ash cloud generated because it all takes place underwater we don’t even know how deep underwater the volcano is if we pick up yonder to 3 miles of water which means that the definition of a volcano would be very very different because because water is much more massive and density of the air and therefore could’ve possibly suppress the entire eruption also this will Kemp sounds like it’s a shield volcano which means that the magma that comes out of the doctor because explosive as is the case with Tom with Yellowstone

[THORSLANDS]

If it happens guess all the wars will.end .

[kashalethebear]

It's not about to erupt. Thus is clickbait, and there is so much misinformation in this video, it is not even funny.

[sprinkleddonuts]

And you know what… there is 7 known Super Volcanoes 🌋

If one goes, they ALL go.
