Jan Mayen drone movie HD

A short drone movie showing off the beautiful Norwegian volcanic island of Jan Mayen. This is a remote island located at 71°N 8°30´ W, far out in the north Atlantic Ocean. The island is little, though a very special and definitely a unique piece of Norway.
This might be the very first drone movie made from so many different places at the island. Please enjoy glaciers, volcano craters, black beaches, the northernmost active volcano. Welcome to the arctic island, Jan Mayen.

I am glad I got to spend 6 months as a Station commander on this beautiful island in 2018. The island is unique. I really miss Jan Mayen.

Is there people live or its for government

Så du var en av de Alle mot 1 spillerne på NRK programmet, som gjorde at Jan Mayen alltid kom høyest på beste landsdel? 🤔

For those interested, there's a cheeky joke on the sign on the start of the video that I can translate: "Station Jan Mayen "Theory is when you understand everything, but nothing works Practice is when everything works but nobody understands why At this station, we unite theory and practice such that nothing works and nobody understands why." Pretty funny!

[@malcolmabram2957]

I am so used to this principle in my life that I didnt realise it was a joke. Just pretty routine for me.

[@lydiaveldhuizen3157]

Thank you for this funny Joke. I have written It down, and wil put this under my picture from Mount Beerenberg.

[@FirstLast-cd6vv]

I think you meant "cheesy" joke.

Now why can't something like this go viral? That was absolutely breathtaking. Places like that remind me that there is beauty still left in this world.

[@siljewennesland2532]

Thank you, Marissa. Glad you liked this unique place on earth.

I have to confess I know a fair amount of geography, and wacky places like this interest me thousands of times more than popular beech resorts, or adventure parks. The video from Beerenburg was outstanding. Jan Mayan looked so much larger on the video than on the map.

[@siljewennesland2532]

Thank you. The island is quite small, but still rich on outdoor adventures and experiences.

[@jenikaybee8979]

That is the truth…that long peninsula appears longer in person near sea level. This island reminds me of Heard Island, Australia.

[@julianmm459]

Hello, I was browsing on Google maps at 3 in the morning and when I found your island I was fascinated and I was forced to look for more near it, it is incredible the amount of beautiful places that there are in the world and this is one of them, I hope to go some day with my mother and my brother to contemplate such a wonderful landscape, I hope you understand me I do not have very good English since I am from a country in South America called Colombia, I also managed to observe that in the time lapse of the 3 minute : 03 There are two wolves or I think, is it usual to see wolves there? Greetings from the other part of the world

[@siljewennesland2532]

Hi there. Glad you liked the place. There are no animals living on this island, except from sea birds and the two dogs owned by the Norwegian Metrological Institute. Hope you get the chance to go with your family some day.

Thank you very much by showing us this. Last Year I went with a Small cruisship from Ysland to Svalbard Passage Jan Mayen. It was for me the 2e time and I always was interesting if there was Life on That Island. Mount Beerenberg was in clouds, but surtenly there came a breaktrue and she showed herself in such a beauty, and the longer It took the more clouds disapears. She is a lovely mysterical Lady.

I am from Indonesia, accidentally saw this island on a map and I was very curious to see what it looks like

[@californiumkineticsoup367]

Absolutely Beautiful !! Talk about isolated though. That one place ( camper or self made shack) under that rock shelf was interesting. Does someone still live there? Maybe it's someone's summer camp.So many thoughts going thru my mind watching that. For one, thank god for helicopters ! And where or how would you find a snickers bar, or a bar, or batteries or anything! Man you have to be super prepared before you even get on a plane to get there wow. If they even have an airport. I read there are some more people there. I wanna say 2500 or thousand but I guess that's some where else. Haha. I back pack all over Wyoming, Utah and am a whitewater rafting guide in the Adirondacks in the summer but man I got to know there is something somewhere. But that's ok, because now, thanks to your video I feel like I visited it a bit and also know where to go if I want to die absolutely alone with no chance to be found. Just kidding. I do wonder about the fishing. Seems like whatever you could catch would be gigantic. Oh and that drone got some major altitude. Outstanding quality video and the time-lapse was super cool!! ^|^ Thank you for that. Wonderful !!

[@siljewennesland2532]

Thank you so much for your lovely comment. There are only 18 people living on the island working for the Norwegian Cyber Defence and for the Norwegian Meteorological Institute.
