Lava King Crash 💥

[@janmccann8081]

Thanks for sharing. No crazy graphics. No horrid music. No hyper commentary. Perfect!

[@coincommando3338]

Yes

[@sandrameredith6372]

My husband and I are in New Zealand and have watched 30 minutes of this amazing camera work. Who would have thought something so natural would be so amazing and fascinating. Thanks.

[@coincommando3338]

@@sandrameredith6372 nice!

[@victoriaegan6476]

Thank you for some incredible video. I don't think many people recording the volcano have done justice to this amazing event as you have.

[@patriciabockenstette6550]

Marvelous! Thank you for waiting for the final fall. Hearing the sound of breaking glass in the wind makes the event more spectacular. Keep safe.

[@davewilson4058]

How easily we humans are entertained. I've just sat for 11 minutes watching a chunk of lava gradually disintegrate and I was enthralled by it. Magnificent display, brought to us by by Pele. She sure knows how to make a dramatic entrance.

[@coincommando3338]

Yes!

[@krisushi1]

Thank you for that most amazing footage. I too saw him as you did at the very beginning and I hadn't read the title either. It's funny how excited we can get over some lava but seeing him as a king on his throne made it all the more enjoyable. I loved the reactions from the people around you too. How lucky you are to be seeing this first hand but I'm very grateful for all the footage being filmed for those of us far away, in my case Australia.🇦🇺✌

[@winnepeterson7740]

“His intestines are burning!” LOL! Thank you for this amazing footage and the delightful running commentary. It surely looked just as you were envisioning it.

[@marihewson4195]

We thank you for being there at the right time to capture this amazing footage. Looked like a giant boot from a mythical giant. We are loving your videos of your beautiful island and amazing volcanos. Thank you very much from New Zealand.

[@wahyukrisna6316]

😊☺

[@Tee19691]

How lucky for you to be there experiencing this event and up close too. Thankyou for this amazing and beautiful footage, please keep it coming. Watching from Western New York State USA.

[@bandit6048]

Very cool! You manage to find interesting things like that. Shows us the black part is moving too :)

[@zillamir8624]

‘His intestines are burning’ 🔥😂 you’re awesome Gutn Tog!! Love your work ❤️

[@Bog1979]

That scenery is mind blowing. Something looking so unreal. Thanks for sharing this experience with us

[@GumriRN]

What a Volcano 🌋 Catch! You were there just at the perfect time. EXCELLENT! You’ll keep that video for all time!

[@RedisFun2]

I could not look away! Amazing footage!

[@seanbryan4833]

The proud Mountain King... He lost his throne but still carried on, until finally he was brought down and had his final fall. It seemed to me that even at the final moment of his death, he faced it with a great, solemn dignity.

[@lauraarmenis4203]

Omg, you were in the right spot at the right time. Thanks for sharing.

[@wazoo8586]

"he's about to die...." I love your poetry...!!!

[@billrobbins5874]

Nice shot, was wondering what would happen. Thank you.

[@downhil44]

TogMeister, you must look at the world somewhat like I do. You take time to dwell on seemingly small changes, as though to "get inside" them, to feel their character. It sure paid off with this one -- the fall of the mighty Mountain King, yeah -- all the while its legs sliding out from under it. Patience rewarded you, rewarded us all.

[@juliocean1331]

RIP Lava King. Amazing footage. Exciting to watch! Thank You for sharing! Stay safe!! 🙏

[@fredthompson4568]

This Iceland Volcano is.the best in its odd evolution & Actions!

[@akundisrinivas6788]

Your commentary is superb 👌 👏 👍 It actually draws attention and curiosity. Otherwise it's just a normal occurrence in any moving lava field. Good keep it up.

[@alisonmary1443]

That's fantastic, I have been in hospital and back tracking to see the changes. Huge Thanks for the videos, Scotland.

[@charlesstewart9246]

[@kingbee17able]

It's just as good to watch today as it was when you first released it great footage and well done once again.

[@ollietsb1704]

Even a year later, this is SOOO impressive for your photography and KZbin collection. Thanks.

[@kathrynspieker6189]

You should get some kind of incredible award for this fantastic footage!

[@efowble]

[@inquisitiveWA]

“Mother Earth” is a fictitious nonentity. Give credit to almighty God who created this earth.

[@AllYouJesusAmy]

[@saturdaysun5724]

Amazing pictures , the earth is so angry.Thank you so much for filming this.

[@patriciablue2739]

Thank you for posting! I smiled the entire time.

[@charlotteehutton8179]

That footage of Lava King's Demise was very good. Very good piece for study by volcanists as the heat was reall and the cooling lava flow acted like a lubricant for the lava king to slide down that far. Then the middle channel of sliding lava was very cool. Thanks.

[@tootbarkley7276]

*Absolutely Fascinating! Thanks from Texas!*

[@shaheenamobin4721]

One of the great footages ,the great fall of the great lava king was marvelous

[@davidmcclendon583]

[@SpaceCadet2569]

You sound soooo excited. It’s nice to hear. Like a young boy with a new toy.

[@iduswelton9567]

Kool drone footage and excellent drone pilot

[@tinadenning3186]

Your recordings have been awesome! I am trying to turn in nightly.

[@kristibeauty9618]

Looks like a piece from where the fissure originally opened up, pushing it upwards, then to the side with the lava flow. (Judging by the 'earth crown', looking just like the surrounding land before the eruption started) Very, VERY interesting find there!

[@dianafrances6862]

Mesmerizing. Thank you.

[@steveburley5041]

thank you for sharing .....its appreciated SB Australia

[@RegebroRepairs]

I've seen on the live stream that you get you get these "cliffs" when a cone has a small collapse, and it does indeed get pushed away by the lava flow. This one was really high, though.

[@GoCoyote]

Slow motion drama! I hope you had a lot of fun. I wish I was there.

[@kimkennedy3524]

That's was fantastic, thank you

[@sidforbrains6552]

The end of The Lava King...lol...thanks again

[@nonmihiseddeo4181]

I'm Hawai'ian, we know our lava. The Lava King is riding on a flow of basaltic pahoehoe lava (pah-HO-ee-HO-ee). When it finally dries, it's easy to walk on, even barefoot. As the slope it flows down flattens out, and the lava slows down and thickens, the lava cools and forms a crust of black glass. Because the lava is still moving slowly, the crust will sound like glass as it breaks into either chunks (called clinkers) or into plates. At this point, the lava may become what we call aa (Quickly say ah!ah! This lava hurts your feet when you step on it, like broken glass, and you say aa as a quick, short sound!) As he continues to break down, the Lava King will become part of the clinkers, all flowing inexorably to their version of Valhalla. EDIT: At 7:06, you can hear the clinkers falling behind the Lava King.

[@lesliefischer6680]

Great explanation, thank you

[@picklep9812]

I thought the two lavas are different types of material not one forming into another

[@patroberts5449]

I can almost picture a dragon head, the round spot above the crack is it’s eye, the lava is its gaping mouth, the part to the right is its snout and the pointed upper part is its spikes starting down its back:)

[@ewagaj5628]

Dzięki wielkie. Świetnie nagrany filmik - bez skakania, od którego dostaję oczopląsu. Pozdrawiam z Polski.

[@victorhausler4339]

That was amazing footage. Continue

[@gee1118]

Wow!! Simply incredible.

[@MariaLima-nk3ly]

How great and amazing is the power of God!!! Thank you sir.🙏🙏🙏

[@norcaljb2649]

Well narrated! Farewewll, Lava King! 👑👋😁

[@christiroseify]

That was amazing!!! Thank you...

[@Beth-ie]

Great catch!

[@ivymoon1779]

Wow!! That's awesome!!

[@jimgraves4197]

This shows the power of the Volcano to change the landscape perfectly. The Lava King could not stop the flow from bringing his downfall.

[@patroberts5449]

How big is this? 15? 20? Feet? This is awesome !

[@knightshift1980]

You’re the Lava King 🔥👑🔥

[@coincommando3338]

Yes he is

[@SeanAFoXy]

When a big piece breaks off and rolls, can you feel the vibration in the ground where you stand?

[@helenahultgren8427]

Livli and fantastic too see the volcano. And that which comes out and spreads globwide is nouriching the environments! Strange thow that people is aloud going so close to the lava. Let the volcano do its thing and go further from!

[@susanritter2520]

My thoughts, as well; looks like a king sitting on a throne. 🌋👑

[@coincommando3338]

Yes

[@lesliefischer6680]

Does anyone know if the earthquake you mentioned in the description has affected the flow? Has it changed in intensity or direction? Thank you so much for taking the time to do this and share it, for those of us unable to be there. Lol, if everyone tuning in to all the videos showed up at once there would be no room for the lava to flow. :) Or it would make room quickly. Hmmm. I wonder what that many footsteps of people walking around an active volcano would do? ;)

[@IcelandExplorer]

Must be...if the cars had been shaken strong enough to trigger the alarm, so the loose and chaotic lava rocks on the volcanos and lava fields with all the flows.

[@iDuckman]

"My name is Ozymandias, King of Lava. Look on my works and .. oops."

[@cierakitty]

Most interesting...watched it all fall, little by little

[@kathrynkenyon785]

VERY COOL!!!

[@myrahouston2261]

Was it a coup de eta ....? Or in this case a coup de lava ...!

[@johnzuijdveld9585]

Hear the delight of the surrounding peasantry as he crumbled, that's the funniest part of it all, such entertainment! 🤣 🎺

[@CesareVesdani]

Why did you name this video the lava king?

[@rustythecrown9317]

who can say... he used his imagination... something you seem to lack.

[@kathrynspieker6189]

Incredible footeage!
