[krislyttle]

Having so many people living near volcanoes is simply too risky, in my view.

I know land is a precious commodity, it is a giver of life, but I just don't see how it's worth the pain and suffering when it takes life in such a horrific a manner as this.

[pcgamerguy1234]

very helpful revision for my geography exam

[gshunw]

The bodies of those people is so disturbing.

The little girl at 5:53 looks like she has a grey streak in her hair...maybe from being so afraid.

[benenglish76]

Talk about inappropriate narrator .. the guy seems quite excited about it all! Terrible oratory skils

[thirsteekid]

My great grand ma passed in Armero that day. May she rest in peace.

[enveno1]

[rwzal]

sweetie,don't go around correcting people if they don't click right in the keyboard by mistake (in this case.. me),besides English is not my mother language but I speak for more,,,,do YOU?

[MegaSpooke]

this is just sad=/, how mother nature can take many lifes in a matter of seconds :(

[raiiny]

the govt was REALLY really useless then, for seriously underestimating the risk of the eruption and not carrying out necessary evacuation despite concrete prediction reports. those deaths could be evaded easily. damn authorities!

[juanmiguel58]

30000 DIED

[banjofilms5]

And 23,000+ died, there were not many survivors at all.

[banjofilms5]

I would consider myself an expert on this volcano, I can answer questions.
