[@achillesbuchanan2095]

@@Sigart This is true. That’s why I obey the traffic laws. But I am saying that often nanny states go way too far, and in contrast the personal discretion allowed in Iceland seems appropriate. There are not that many people involved, and I haven’t seen any hooliganism. Those present are intelligent enough to take an interest and responsible enough to get themselves there. They can obviously see that they are remaining at a reasonably safe distance, which is something we can’t see due to parallax on the videos. They would be listening to the experts and have a good understanding of the rate of change in the volcano’s behaviour. The only financial aspect I’ve picked up on is that someone began charging for parking, but there is no one taking money to do tours so that customers are trusting in a business person’s duty of care. Considering that no one has been hurt in all this time suggests that the liberty allowed is working well. If someone did die by a rogue flying blob of lava landing on their head, of course it would be unfortunate, but that’s a risk the participants are prepared to take, and, at the end of the day, adventurers may think that this isn’t the worst way to go out.

I can feel the heat from here 😎

[@helensarkisian7491]

3:48 - I understand the fascination and draw to get as close as possible. After all, how often does one have the opportunity to see a real volcano so closely? Still, I’m thinking that spitting lava and intense heat are two very good indicators that you’re waaaaayyyyy too close.

[@kimberlyhood4095]

I would be more concerned with the gasses coming out of that thing, at least you can see where the lava is going.

[@hellybelle5]

One of the most terrifying things about the Hawaiian volcano (the last one I saw anything about) was that the lava travelled underground, and came up miles away. If that happened here, they'd be totally cut off! 😲

[@katiekat4457]

Thank you for recording this and posting it. It is nice to be able to just watch the volcano without someone feeling like they have to talk through it. It seems like the lava was moving much faster than other volcanos that I have seen via the internet. Is it moving faster do you think? Also what is the temperature in Iceland right now since it's November already. I live in the southeast of America in Florida and tomorrow it's supposed to be 87 degrees Fahrenheit or 30.6 degrees celsius. I am tired of the hot weather honestly. A trip to beautiful Iceland sounds nice. Plus the people seem so happy and friendly.

[@throughthoroughthought8064]

Even the wind was too much noise. Other than that, very nice. And when the lava splattered over the lip - "YAY! It's a tiny bit taller now." 🌋

[@camogrrl]

Try New Zealand. We sit between 8c (46f) in winter and 25-28c (77-83f) in summer. The earths axis favours us. We’re Not freezing like Iceland or freeze/boil/freeze like Canada.

[@rachels6808]

There are two types of lava flows based on viscosity: pahoehoe, which is slow and billowy, and AA, which is fast moving and ropey. This is an example of an AA. Very cool to witness.

8:12 The fact that not one person moved when the cone splattered all over tells me that this is just telescopic compression and no one was in any danger. Kinda like that giant sun silhouetting the animals in an African savanna photo.

Leave 'em alone. They're having fun with the comparatively new telescopic compression. There aren't any trees to climb, or grass to roll in, in Iceland, so they have to find new ways of having fun.

It is not that close. Its the telephoto effect of this shoot that makes it look like its very close. I have been following the 🌋 since very beginning amd have seen many videos at start as well. There is quite a bit of distance between the ⛰ and rhe 🌋

[@hardrays]

"honey, this would look nice in the yard"

[@SeppundBerta]

i was there last week. The vulcano is about 1 km far, you cannot get closer by feet. The nearest "active" lavafield was about 100m away and it was too hot to get closer! additionally the lavafield last week was much "colder", much less glowing lava! you never could stand there as close as shown in the video! Never ever! too sad, you did great pictures, but you show them in a deceptive context. Is that what you want? just for clicks?

[@robertw.1499]

Just watched this again. They are indeed standing on a rise in front of the duct spewing lava. There must be a considerable sink in front of them where the lave is flowing. The ground where they are all standing seems to be lava-pat free. That said, if that vent had a big pressure build up and spewed big style, then bye bye thrill seekers...

[@thatpanamahatlife1497]

I'm an enthusiastic fan of such lava spewing volcanoes too and I'm always fascinated by them. However it's still very insane to came on so close directly beneath a such dynamic, dangerous, savage and hot "inferno" and risk their own life highly! Did they not calculate the possibility at all they would hit by any ejecta of boiling lava with about 1,200°C i.e. exactly a-dozen-times hotter than boiling water and even much heavier/denser!!!🌋🔥🔥🔥😱
