VOLCANIC ERUPTION | CUMBRE VIEJA LA PALMA | 8K

The 2021 Cumbre Vieja volcanic eruption began on 19 September 2021 and lasted for 86 days, making it the longest and most destructive since records began on La Palma.
We had the chance to capture it between October 11th and 16th, getting a small impression of what the local population had to endure for over 3 months.
The lava flow has covered over 1000 hectares, destroyed more than 3000 buildings and caused the evacuation of over 7000 people. Damage is estimated to be close to 1 Billion Euro.

So awesome, must have been a crazy experience!

[@dorkysaur]

You need to comeback man, your work is amazing too

[@ALIAZADEH]

comeback man

[@DustinFarrell]

Incredible footage Martin! Love those above the cloud moon shots and especially the slow-mo ;)

[@8kEarth]

Welcome to my channel

[@petravdheijden]

This is absolutely the most beautiful film of the La Palma volcano I've seen! You must have spent so many hours. Hats off!

[@Andyax]

I remember watching this when you released it, and it was truly impressive. It was refreshing seeing something original like this on KZbin. So I was expecting it to have passed several hundred thousand views by now... Sometimes I don’t understand KZbin’s algorithm. This video deserves a lot more attention for sure.

[@TimestormFilms]

Thanks! And I fully agree. This is even the best performing video of my last 10 uploads. Can be frustrating for sure.

[@digitalsiler]

they promote stupidity and mindless drivel what do you expect

[@blakanal7222]

@@TimestormFilmsI think you have to keyword optimise the title. Even the world volcano is not mentioned

[@nathanmcclain1331]

This cinematography is on another level! It feels like I’m watching an intense movie like Dune (2021) with Hans Zimmer music playing.

[@BeauLambertVideos]

It really does

[@kurtgussner]

Grandios, great Movie and Work, RIP Cumbre Vieja

[@trinity4ce]

Wow 😯. Excellent movie. Beautiful shots of that mighty volcano. I love the soundtrack too.

[@louyeo6571]

This eruption started shortly after the unexpected death of our dear and lovely younger sister. Every night I watched the live feed, thankful that the stunning images in red and gold created a warm glow in my room, countering the shocked chill in my mind and heart. Your film is a glorious celebration of the truly awesome nature of our beautiful planet.

[@fionkunz9203]

And there's martin again, nailing it like everytime!

[@christianrey5312]

perhaps this is the "me nerd" talking, but I love how you did cross the eruption theme from your previous video in Calbuco. I recognized it immediately. Awesome work, as always!!!

[@amparoalvarez9001]

This is by far, the best video I have watched about La Palma volcano Cumbre Vieja...I wondered why I did not find it last year...

[@entumovies]

Grazie per queste bellissime emozioni! ❤

[@David-cx4wy]

Such beautiful imagery, of one of the greatest spectacles a human being can witness. The last minute of this video is so amazingly synchronized with sound and visuals it literally makes the hairs on my arms stand up. Thank you .

[@thomasjulienphoto]

Probably the best footage I have seen of the La Palma volcano. Great work as always !

[@andrewfernie4932]

Simultaneously stunningly beautiful and terrible. Thank you for making me feel appropriately small in the face of the forces on display here. Superb work.

[@sbrenden]

Mindblowing! Almost out of words to describe what i have just seen. This is so extremely well made from start to end, and those slow motion clips at the end, WOOW. Congrats with the result! Will watch again and again. Thanks for putting all this together for us to watch here on youtube. Really appriciate it.

[@cleverdarkelve]

Great work, so glad to see it out in the world! Kudos!

[@sksaifuddin5367]

Thanks

[@iamreality604]

This.. is just something altogether beyond breathtaking and stunning... Just.. Wow.. What a phenomenal job on this, music, visuals, editing, all of it. Just beyond incredible.. What a journey this all has been. But not for a second am I disappointed it's over. SHAME on any who would be. This beast was beautiful and awe inspiring for sure. But also altogether devastating for the people of LP, on a multitude of levels. Now the next phase can begin, and they have a long road to recovery. I encourage all those who got so much out of this to please, if you have the means, donate what you can. It all matters!

[@AndersARLarsen]

Didn't blink for 7 minutes and 21 seconds. This is a damn masterpiece! Thank you

[@Laz_Arus]

You never cease to amaze me with your releases. You have truly captured the majesty and power of mother nature with this one. Well done indeed. 👍👍

[@eliasrws1924]

Incredible footage! And perfect music choice for these scenes.

[@deborahfischer5708]

Masterful work! No other footage of an eruption can even come close to this artfully captured, hauntingly beautiful film! I'm in awe...

[@CodeLeeCarter]

Timestorm Films Never ceases to Amaze one's #VisualCortex with an array of Destruction & Beauty. Thanks again.

[@montanamtngirl]

Beautiful and mesmerizing but also terrifying. Amazing cinematography!!👏🌋

[@gottfrieddittrich8015]

Einfach genial. Bringt Cumbre Vieja auf den Punkt.

[@8kEarth]

Nice Video 📸

[@scottmairs9014]

Instantly recognised the music as the same soundtrack as you used for "Calbuco", Ryan Tarbert's "Anomaly" theme. Loved that. I can't believe it's taken this long for me to actually notice this video (thank you, KZbin's algorithm...) but I'm so glad I did. Stunning, stunning work. Your cinematography is second-to-none.

[@TobiasDettinger]

Wow. Just wow. There is nobody evey in this world who shots good pictures as you do! This is THE best capture of the la palma volcano ever!

[@UTIMELAPSE]

Unsurpassed work. It is stunning to see it all with your own eyes

[@obsekte]

Atemberaubend! Schnitt, Sound, Grading und natürlich die Aufnahmen selbst… ein Traum. Sowas gehört in die Trends und nicht irgendwelche Gamer oder Influencer.

[@user-yj9pm9jl8p]

Да, проявление Стихии это нечто. уровень красоты равен опасности. Но потрясло, что рядом горели огни домов… Спасибо огромное, что я могу увидеть эту красоту!

[@Leon-vr1bx]

ВОИСТИНУ 👍👍👍 , СТАВИМ ЛАЙКИ , ПИШЕМ КОМЕНТЫ ЧЕТЫРЕ И БОЛЕЕ СЛОВ , ВЫВОДИМ ВИДЕО В ТОПЫ !!!

рядом с потоком магмы валят потоки машин , как будто ничего и не случилось

Wahrlich überwältigende Aufnahmen! Ja, so ein Naturereignis ist sehenswert. Und diese Bilder setzen es fantastisch in Szene.

Spectacular piece! Thanks!

Damn I have tears in my eyes... this is sooo beautiful. This is art at its finest, thx for the awesome atmosphere!

Thank You...

[@donhendricks3190]

You guys are my heroes. Your level of creativity and technical acuity and your mastery of visual storytelling ... well, yours are the standards to which I aspire. I have such a long way to go - so much to learn. Thank you for these beautiful films and for the inspiration.

[@dianetyra1792]

Gorgeous!!! Just phenomenal!

Cool stars and red lava and red buueaty light

[@beabrisket3908]

Absolutely beautiful! I have watched the volcano since day one. I recognize those moments you have captured so beautifully. I got emotional watching. I actually teared up a little. Absolutely beautiful.

[@astranger8569]

Insane Timelapse!

[@noafix]

Espectacular vídeo. La vida siempre brota de nuevo palmeros, y más allí en la Palma. Sois un pueblo de supervivientes. Mucho ánimo.

[@ramonster1972]

[@carolwafula9655]

Wow! This is really out of this world. I had been following this volcano from day 1 but never seen it quite like this! Very well done!

[@skyimagesdotde]

Ganz großes Kino!

[@magicwendy210]

stunning and perfect music thank you for sharing, l watched la palma for the whole 3 months it was amazing, l felt for the people there though and the animals

[@mikemeneray1437]

definitely best of the La Palma videos! Thanks!

Hi! Martin! I live here, in La Palma Awesome shots!!!

[@aljedo]

amazing video. watched like seven times in a row.

[@ExtremAtmosfera_BrunoGoncalves]

Wow!! This is just awesome!!! Outstanding! Mindblowing! I was at La Palma too for three days, and also made a timelapse video... but this one is just ... awe inspiring! Thank you for sharing this work to us! Congrats!

[@Chris-vn5mr]

Hammermäßig. Vielen lieben Dank dafür

[@theflyingfool]

How visceral was that! I think you've excelled yourself Martin. The point where you panned the camera downwards to keep the ejecta stationary was very imaginative and skilful! A wonderful film of the power of nature. Thank you!

[@brugtx]

Very nice picture quality. Thanks.

[@mauricionavarrete9109]

Sin duda alguna haces un trabajo increíble 👌🏼

[@peetre]

Absolutely marvelous, mysterious, spellbinding, awesome. Great video and wonderful music by Taubert!

It's unbelievable. I've never seen anything like it. Bravo Martin.

[@marv703]

You guys did it again!!!! What a masterpiece!!!

[@cyber_cowpoke]

One word to describe this video…epic!

[@lostintravel_at]

wow - that's incredible. Great shots. Wonderful video. :-)

[@ukuechle]

Holy cow, Martin, you and your team have outdone yourselves once again! Thanks for fulfilling my secret wish that someone would create such a film of Cumbre Vieja. This is the next best thing to being there myself.

[@PilotWanderlust]

Incredible! 😳 Outstanding work! 👌

[@capehorn2]

Huge fan of yours since Calbuco eruption days. I’ve been waiting for this! Fantastic job!

[@petrchutny]

Wow. Stunning and incredible. I've been there live, and your amazing movie made me re-live that intense experience… inspiring, truly!

[@joyharp1949]

You definitely gave it the respect it deserves. This was beautifully done. Thank you! ❤️

[@gabrielmaisonet7485]

Unbelievable. Thank you for sharing this masterpiece with us. I have been following you for years, and even though I'm young, I can tell, you're a master of capturing change over time. "Eruption"... Things becoming balanced, one or another. pressure differences force new magma up, starting slow. Seeping through cracks, flowing naturally, showering, until finally it's erupting.. whether it's dead of night, or high noon, the eruption shines, like it belongs in the sky... Anyway, thank you so much, for posting this stuff for free . You're helping the world learn. Take care, Martin. keep up the grind, and keep shining ✨

[@STANGER241]

Der Wahnsinn Martin. Glückwunsch zu solch tollen Bildern :D

[@BIZARTMEDIA]

Потрясающие кадры! Браво!

Martin, like always so damn good clips inside and the music matched it perfectly! WOW!

[@allenspionvideography1619]

Absolutely beautiful and stunning. Nature is the king.
