Eruption aftermath of Biscuit Basin Geyser in Yellowstone National Park. Video credit (vlad merch)

[@kinexkid]

So far, this seems to be the only video of the explosion. Im glad you are safe, but be prepared to have a lot of news outlets contacting you to use this video

[@natureali]

Not her video.

[@kinexkid]

@@natureali yeah, I've since realized that myself too. Oh well, it's not the worst thing to happen

[@i.coelho9255]

I must say, their survival is really to extinction point, dont stay around😂

[@BufordDuckworth]

Dude, if Yellowstone finally blows its load 75% of North America is in danger. Are you gonna blame all the people in Denver, Cheyenne, SLC, Billings, Sturgis, and all the tiny towns in between for "sticking around"?

[@ANG33333]

No basic survival skills were present

[@galeabiad2689]

Why would anyone stand there and then go back. Yellowstone is one giant super volcano

[@Toast_editzRoadto800]

It the way back to the parking lot

[@DagosArts]

cuz if it blows, no matter how far you run youre still a goner lol. I lived near there, its just an acceptance at that point that if it blows, you go too! Also the exit was that way lol

[@BWLightGuy]

The parking lot is on the other side.

[@SongMom8]

This was not magmatic, this was geothermal. No lava involved here. Hot steam and gas. Things like this have happened before, just not usually this big.

[@horsthumbug1612]

​@@SongMom8 Here in Europe (Phlegraean Fields) we also have strong volcanic activity Etna, Stromboli Italy.

[@breezymama]

“Everyone needs to get out of here really quickly because we don’t know how safe this is. It could be really really dangerous”- the tour guide. That shows you that this wasn’t normal.

[@nicolesanders2579]

Wow. Good job keeping everyone safe. We saw the cloud from geyser hill. This is insane.

[@Silver0Tree]

Do they think it's a theme park that isn't really going to hurt them? Why are they just standing around gawking, even when you're yelling at them to move??! And then some of the people you passed at the end even seemed kinda grumbly at the 'mess' afterwards as if their ride had broken down or something 😳 It's a real live natural active VOLCANO ffs, not Disneyland, nobody goes round every morning making it all nice and safe and tidy for visitors 🙄

[@benhemphill]

Amazing! thanks for sharing! definitely a scary situation and glad everyone is okay!

[@granitfog]

There is a family at the end of the boardwalk at the time of the explosion, and it seems that the adults are running away from danger in front of one of their kids. I would want my kids to be in front of me when running away from danger.

[@ge2623]

The one guy falls down and almost gets clocked by a rock.

[@matycee]

Glad you guys are ok.... wow! you got the video!! Impressive that you didn't totally panic, drop your phone or shake it like a Polaroid picture. Well done person!

[@goodday23456]

Ya'll do know that Yellowstone has been having a lot of earthquakes, right?

[@Oddworld2024]

When that’s not a normal thing to happen here why’s everyone stopping to look. As if it went off and they thought “well that must be it.” Not smart at all. What if it went off again even bigger. I mean safety first folks. Cameras and phones come second after for sure safe and also having helped others. Not just those you know personally. Get them out of there. Drag them if have to. Unpredictability means just that. Be smarter. Great video this lady was right to stay back.but I wouldn’t have gone by it again. The parks are beautiful but is it worth it if you’re gone. Know one will know that.

[@Oddworld2024]

Not even you. Not time

[@robinfennessy4883]

So when the BIG ONE hits I'm guessing everyone's just going to be standing around watching it?

[@__jadedmuse__]

Yep… recording videos for the internet 😇

[@WizardWithNoMana]

What else could you do lol

[@ge2623]

May as well. For about 3 seconds.

[@BufordDuckworth]

If the "big one" hits, a majority of the US is going with it. Are you gonna blame everyone west of the Mississippi for "standing around watching it"?

[@nancykennon310]

And they want that picture no matter what.

[@anntodd1233]

At least these people used common sense to get to a safe location.

[@justinw7323]

If they say "don't panic" is the time we panic. We saw this on Dantes Peak.

[@garyb6219]

All the plumbing that enabled this to happen blew itself apart. There is certainly no immediate danger of it blowing again if at all the the future. At least in this spot until new plumbing forms but it would take a very long time. This was hot water not magma.

[@achimlichtenhagen3144]

Sooo... the people next to the explosion just run... and left the toddler behind. How could it be that a CHILD is the last in line? Interesting.

[@scottanderson3751]

Almost ready to blow and untold millions at risk-you’re not allowed to know this for obvious reasons. Have a good day ✌️

[@OurNeighborshood]

Wow what a sight! Hope everyone stays safe ❤

[@anjaupsa5392]

😮ohgott wie leichtsinnig Menschen doch sind.Gase könnten da entstehen u.sie gehen mit ihren Kindern nochmal dahin

[@kennethloki7011]

When the pressure drops in a geyser vent it allows the water to turn to steam. Steam takes up x1000 times the volume of water. Which leads to explosions like this. Not an eruption. And not rare either.

[@CBoutdoors-vh1ez]

Very unstable place wonder what happens when the big one lets go

[@Mckill30]

How so?

[@christakoch5011]

I don`t understand at all why people must walk or live on vulcanos - absolute no comprehension -;-

[@WizardWithNoMana]

Do you mean historically or currently? Historically humans have settled near volcanoes because of the rich resources they can provide to an environment such as fertile soil. Currently? Much the same reason, and add tourism on top of it.

[@giuseppersa2391]

Nature needs to be more respected by those tourists.

[@korzenicus]

and what do they promptly do...walk back up the the place they just ran from due to the danger...how do they know there's not more danger?

[@kinexkid]

They must've been stuck on the opposite side from the parking lot. There's really only one way to get out. At least they went back once it seems to have been safe to do so

[@elijahhoppe7856]

@@kinexkid There is another way but very long. Since the explosion was over, pretty much all energy had left the system so what they did was not all that unsafe.

The big one is acomin'. That's scary though

[@SongMom8]

No, Yellowstone is not going to erupt. No magma involved here, just steam and gas.

[@kinexkid]

There was a statement released by the park just recently. The explosion happened at 10:19 this morning, no one was injured, and the background geologic activity hasn't changed at all. If I had to guess, one of the conduits that the super heated water takes somehow got blocked off or clogged somehow, and this was just a result of a small pressure buildup, not a sign of any volcanic activity
