  • Cool! that was on my Birthday

  • @Rammstein45 Mine too.

  • And thus, there is vog in the Hawaiian Islands.

    And also...this is why, unlike for much of the 20th century, you can no longer get close the Halemaumau Crater. In the early 1900s, it was the usual thing to walk right up to the edge and look into the glowing red firepit. Now, we don't take chances anymore, and people are kept away from the potential of something like this video shows.

  • beautiful..

  • Wow. Did you see how nice and round the hole was? Such power just in the smoke!

  • красота !!!!!!!!

  • How come we get told off for lighting bonfires and fireworks (global warming), but volcanoes are allowed to do THIS?!

  • well there are around 6 billion people and maybe around 1000 volcanoes. Plus humans burn almost every day. And no offense, but fireworks are a waste of money - all they are is pretty.

  • Good thing I was joking then

  • I do however appreciate your sense of humor

  • Volcanoes have always erupted, and are always erupting. Thus they can erupt without affecting the natural cycle, since they're part of the natural cycle. When burning fossils which have accumulated over geological timescales, you're getting excess amounts of CO2 in the atmosphere. Volcanoes only keep CO2 at the currenlt levels, whereas human activities increase the levels. Besides, there is no way to stop a volcano.

  • It was a JOKE. Try not to respond with an essay.

  • just wanted to point out a few events that have changed the "natural" cycle. tambora 1815, Krakatoa 1889, laki eruptions of 1783-84. and inumerable other past eruptions that have significantly affected life on earth.

    i just ask that you dont get pissy about other peoples input.

  • If you look from a geological perspective, even massive volcano eruptions occur with fairly regular intervals. Life always recovers from the calamities wrought by such eruptions.

  • the earth is a hoax

  • 0:10 is when it REALLY started

    (i think)

  • october 12 is my birthday.

  • Same here

  • this is a vei-1 eruption

  • Incrivel !

  • i'm scared.

  • Nice video, thanks for posting.

  • its kindof weird to think...thats what we walk over every day, thats what's beneath us... under this thin layer of crust there's this crazy explosive power...hmmm

  • ooo that's awesoooome XD

  • WTF?!

  • why do u wtf... its not even a big eruption.

    maybe you missed some physic class.

  • Comment removed

  • ...sound would be great, especially a booming voice that roars "I am Oz!" or "I am Pele!".

  • Very cool!

  • Can you imagine the quantity of sound that was produced by that explosion? Holy cow, I wish the video had volume.

  • whoa i live on this island and i didnt know it was happening, shit

  • woah

  • That's pretty awesome

  • Impressive shot.
