@foxracer1231 I hope ppl like you get lava on their heads to eliminate stupid ppl from the species

[therumble32]

@1NaturallyChanel he's wearing that because he is shielding the side of his body that is facing the lava due to radiant heat

[jonerini]

[1NaturallyChanel]

"It's so hot that this is about as close as I can get". You're wearing a damn parka!

WTF WHO WOULD STAND THAT CLOSE TO A VOLCANO SHOOTING LAVA THAT HIGH

[Euugor]

@thebronzeeagle

Actually, it just looks like he´s close to it, both the camare angle and the size of the fountain help with that.

[EvaVerpe]

[missyloulawless]

[crazyerin999]

I love it how he mentions the gas is poisonous yet stands there amongst it!

[AussieBrock]

"It's so hot, it's as close as I could get". Well, maybe if you took your coat off, you could get EVEN CLOSER!

[patat50]

@AussieBrock thats a heat coat...

[AussieBrock]

@patat50 I didn't know ... there was a such thing.

[gcymb]

[lydia53094]

is he suppose to b that close

[rosenvitae]

Mesmerizing in so many ways. One simply has to appreciate these sights with awe and fascination (from a distance, preferably) :)

[tobyricketts]

Awesome video - thanks for posting

[hreader]

Do we have a date for this documentary? I'd like to know also which Icelandic volcano was producing the fire fountains. I don't think it can have been either Eldfell (Heimaeay) or Surtsey which I visited myself. I saw both lava fountains and a lava lake at Surtsey & the footage resembled neither. Didn't quite fit the Krafla Fires of the 1980s either.

[etnatao]

I am not quite sure, but probably that documentary was filmed at Heimaey, south Iceland, during an eruption that started on January 23rd 1973.

[gragor11]

@etnatao

Yes David looks awfully young in this clip.

[BaldwinVOX]

@hreader The name of the Volcano is Eldfell, it began an eruption on the 23th of January 1973, they needed to evacuate the island where 5300 people lived and they needed to leave all of their stuff behind. Number of houses went under the lava but only one person died from inhaling to much of poison gas. The eruption stopped on the first weekend in July 1973. If you would like to know more about Iceland just let me know :)

[kadamatful]

@hreader This is most likely the eruption of Hekla in 1973.

[TonyEtna1987]

Spectacular images.

[KdEtna]
