How Dangerous Are Volcanos? 3 Hours Of Natural Disasters

From ancient traditions to modern scientific understanding, the video explores how communities around the world coexist with volcanoes. It showcases the cultural significance of volcanoes, often revered as the abodes of gods or spirits, with rituals and offerings made to appease them. Despite the destructive potential of volcanic eruptions, communities adapt their lifestyles and agricultural practices to mitigate risks, utilizing the fertile soils enriched by volcanic ash and harnessing geothermal energy sources. The role of volcanologists emerges as pivotal, as they study volcanic activity, monitor for potential eruptions, and work to protect nearby populations through research and warning systems. Through a blend of tradition, resilience, and scientific inquiry, the video portrays the complex dynamic between humanity and these awe-inspiring forces of nature.

I’ve been watching documentaries to go to sleep before they listed documentaries “to go to sleep to”

[@GabrielLeonars]

yup , works like a charm every time , 10 min i lasted xDD

[@dashdotdot]

I didn't realise that was even a thing, or that this is marked as something to go to sleep to.

[@marc-andrebrunet5386]

That's what I did at least, for the last 10 years😊

I met Ian Stewart a few years ago. He was giving a seminar and to me the purpose of it was to inspire, more so than just to inform. He seems to be quite a noble man in that regard. I believe he hopes he can carry the torch and light new generations with an ambition to solve the new and emergent problems of the day. To that end, he does so remarkably well.

These people respect the duality of nature and work through adversity. The land is fertile, but can’t take the volatility of the volcano for granted.

[@MelissaMcpherson-y9p]

This video is amazing! I love how you explained everything step by step. Keep up the great work!

[@tuathadenan]

What a fabulous video. I have Learn'd so much from watching it. Thank you for sharing all this wonderful knowledge.

I tossed 3 virgins into that volcano hole, AND several boxes of mangos, still no winning lottery numbers!

Did you see 72 virgins pop out of the volcanic hole?

Bro going to a volcano to ask for protection is crazy when you know how dangerous they are 😂

[@danielnunez-d7u]

great video, very informative and well put together! however, I can't help but wonder if the sensationalism around volcanoes sometimes overshadows the real scientific information we should be focusing on. like, yes, they can be super dangerous, but are we really doing enough to educate people on safety rather than just showing the destruction? just my 2 cents!

The thumbnail asked," how dangerous are volcanic eruptions?". Bringing to my mind that Italian city that was literally buried under volcanic ash and debris... Pompeii? Hurculanium...?

[@baneverything5580]

Campi Flegrei is nearby too and a large city sits inside it.

[@OldOwl2003]

I hope they are paying these communities, that they say they have empowered, to take observations of their volcanoes into their own hands on a daily 24 hour 365 days a year as one man said.. “ instead of the experts coming along ?? I would love to see the experts pay day packet alongside the villagers who genuinely want to keep their communities safe. Who don’t arrive in private helicopters , for their next thrill keep adrenaline buzz memory. I think I’m making a fair observation, and only hope these villagers are not loosing sleep 265/24 just so the big guns can arrive on scene for their next thrill. I loved watching this up until that last bit of info was pushed in right at the end. Old Owl Alaya uk.

It's a linguistic variation. Volcanos or volcanoes, both are correct. 😊
