Massive Volcanic Eruptions Caught On Camera

Strap in for some MASSIVE volcanic eruptions caught on camera!!

Legal Stuff.

Basically the volcano is earth's Acne

The first one that comes to mind for me would be Mt. Saint Helens, where almost half the mountain was gone

I love everything you’re about Hank. Helping wildlife, appreciating tornados without the yelling and needing to get dangerously close. Helping tornado victims, not because you’re a chaser and feel like you need to, but because you genuinely want to help. Keep doing what your’re doing!

This is my son's and mine favourite channel to watch together. He loves learning tons of interesting new facts to share with his friends. A great mix of everything, love the content, thanks!

I was on deployment in Sicily when Mt Etna erupted. Impressive. There was a pretty strong tremor that went off just prior to eruption.
I’ve also seen volcanic eruptions in Iceland.

I live in the Philippines, and note: taal has 47 craters, smallest volcano in the world, and a complex volcano

FYI, the pyroclastic flows can travel over water much faster than over land and surely much much faster than merely 50mph. When Krakatoa erupted in 1883, the flows "bridged" a gap of about 36Km (22.5 miles) in about 10 minutes, according to local reports, meaning they were traveling at about 200Km/h (125mph). They do so because, over water, they behave like natural hovercrafts (the increased temparature essentially boils the upper layers of water creating steam which acts as a kind of lubricant allowing the pyroclastic flow above it to run like mad, with almost nothing hindering it). Also, depending on the type of magma, temparatures in the flow can go as high as 1000 degrees Celsius (I believe that is a bit above 1800F). The boat shown in the second Strompoli eruption was indeed lucky the flow was (a) slow and (b) cool enough to be harmful to them.

2:38 damn that's even scarier seeing a pyroclastic surge run across the surface of the water

I have to give the narrator special kudos for being able to pronounce the names of some of these volcanoes! **stands and applauds**

I lived by Mt Etna from 2011-2013 when my husband was in the navy. It erupted several times and it was really amazing to witness

[RedRoseSeptember]

Terrified of all of them, I would not be stopping and staring at the gigantic plume of smoke and ash...I'd be running for cover or something lol.

[LEGACY]

A buddy of mine got caught up in one in the Philippines. He showed me a video, there was so much Ash the city looked like it was Snowing.

[StolenJoker]

The Iceland one is still erupting. It’s been going almost non-stop for several months now.

[pauloalbor]

I'm glad that the original voice finally came back🧡🧡🧡

Mt. St. Helens was the most by far worst eruption, but Mt. St. Helens ash makes the most beautiful glass blowing artwork I have ever seen.

[callenroeder]

There is footage of the mountain St Helens eruption with an incredible view.

[kathconcepcion]

Kudos for the information.

Just for the correction, Mount Taal, is located at Batangas which is a nearby province from the country's capital Manila. Also Manila is not an island but it is located in Luzon the largest island in the Philippines

This reminded me of "Dante's Peak" that our science teacher in high school made us watch...I was really terrified and until now, I have this weird kind of fear towards volcano and earthquakes...😨

Mother Nature: You have chosen... poorly...

Australia has volcanoes but they're not active and indeed most are considered extinct. But there was some talk a few years ago of Melbourne (our second largest populated city) being at some slight risk of volcanoes because of the historic / extinct / long dormant ones that ring parts of Victoria around the city region.
