5 Monster Volcano Eruptions Caught On Camera 

Hopefully Yellowstone stays quiet

For those who don't give a shit about the time-filling commentary: First boom: 1:33 Second boom: 2:47 Third boom: 5:02 Fourth boom: 7:29 Final boom: 8:22

Fun Fact: The shock wave is not "pushing the clouds away", it is actually making new ones. That is water molecules in the air being forced together under pressure to create visible vapor.

Volcano: "I'm one of the most destructive force on this planet" Humas: "I'm gonna build a city around it!"

“It was the first time the volcano has seen any action in over a year” same here, volcano, same here.

Man we know what volcanoes are, just show us the big ass explosions.

I really miss the yt era where people would only show the thing and shut up

I was in Silang, Cavite about 19km (12 miles) on that Sunday when it erupted and our house got covered with the ash mixed with rain. There were so many earthquakes created by the magma that night and the following day. It was something that I never expected and an amazing experience. Lots of lightning that night. Thankfully on Monday after the eruption my wife had her brother come pick me up from Meycauayan, Bulacan. I was glad because we were without water and electricity for about five days from what my neighbors said. I got two short videos from our house and I could hear the crackling sound from the volcano. I bet that the people who were on top of People's Park In The Sky had a great view of the eruption as you can see the entire Taal Island from there.

in that 1st eruption you can can clearly see it breaking the sound barrier.. soo cool

One time when I was in college I somehow went to a talk with a professional volcanologist and I'll never forget his words: "You can never be comfortable around volcanoes, for they have no word of honor."

2:17 That wasn't the clouds moving. That was the pressure wave creating new clouds by condensing the moisture in the air.

Alternative title: 9 minutes of elementary school geo-history, and half a minute of actual explosions

I could see the volcano out my window in Guatemala. It’s literally called the volcano of fire so you know it’s a brute.

1:32 Volcano #1 2:59 Volcano #2 5:01 Volcano #3 7:32 Volcano #4 8:28 Volcano #5

4:06 I feel you, Mount Sinabung. I feel you...

The picture at 8:47 isn't from Guatemala. That's the Volcán de Fuego located near the city of Colima, capital of the state of the same name in the Pacific coast of Mexico. The body of water seen in the foreground is the Laguna Carrizalillos, one of many small lakes spread acros the region. It's a very active volcano. It's most recent explosion was in 2015. I have a jar of ashes from that one sitting in my bookshelf.

Volcanic Ash Cloud: literally almost touching the village The village people: 🙂👍

imagine if we had footage and audio of the moment vesuvius, krakatoa and mount st helens erupted

WOW! The way those cloud’s moved like that from the blast!!!

The way the clouds moved away on the first video shows just how powerful a eruption is

I used to live in a state close to Popocatepetl. (A volcano in central Mexico) It was beautiful having such sight every morning but also scary when our volcano alarm system would turn yellow. (Which is almost always since its an active volcano) over 25 million people live nearby...

I know this maybe sounds very morbid but i find natural disaster like Volcano eruptions, tsunami, earthquake, etc. Really intriguing and beautiful

1:40 "Watch out for the shock, its comin." *10 seconds of awkward & freaky silence* **VINE BOOM**

0:57 5- Mount Tavurvur, New Guinea 2:33 4- Mount Krakatoa, Indonesia 4:12 3- Calbuco Volcano, Chile 5:50 2- The Tall Volcano, The Philippines 7:43 1- Vulcan Fuego, Guatemala

I was outside when Taal Volcano erupted here in the Philippines. He was wrong when he said it spewed lava. It only sent out gasses and ash. I live 5 cities away from taal but it still rained ash on my head. It rained ash for the whole night in my location but longer in the nearer cities around Taal. I had to clean my roof too because ash is destructive on roofs. We were on a state of calamity. It's just on the southern side of metro manila, our capital. And a lot of us needed face masks since january due to the eruption, then Covid hit, we ended up treating facemasks as gold for a while because it was on a high demand. Some priced 100php ($2) for a piece of mask 😷 it's just sad how we get bombarded with different disasters :((

Great job, but the Philippines volcano isn’t called “Tall”, it’s pronounced “Ta Al”

The first boom was lit!😮

I'm surprised not to see Mount St. Helens on this. It was one of the most epic eruptions at least in the 20th Century.

6:14 that part is in phillipines, its an iland on a lake on an island on a lake on an island

This is so amazing and scary at the same time

You dont realise how many people use this content to fall asleep (me included) great work !

The fact that mountains randomly explode is such a wild concept 😂

All of these volcanos: loud and annoying Yellowstone: the quite kid in class. Edit: I have never had this many likes and comments

I'm in constant fear of Mt. Fuji erupting, because I live close-by.

Its truly amazing just how slowly the ash seems to raise up from the caldera.

Came for 5 volcanic eruptions….only saw one…good job!

I've been to Taal back in 2012 seeing it burst to life after being in active for so many years is both facinating and shows how nature can changed from beauty to frightning terror.

The day before the “tall volcano” that laid dormant for 47 years erupted there was probably a 46 year old who said “I’ve lived here my whole life and that volcano has never erupted.”

1:47 I Died At That Part! 🤣🤣🤣

Tiny correction: Volcanoes are one of earth's most constructive forces.

Everyone gangsta until they have to say "Eyjafjallajökull."

Nature: So how many volcanoes do you want? Papua New Guinea: Yes.

Toba Volcano be like : what a cute Eruption, look at them.☺️

i lived in guatemala for 5 years. first of all, i can confirm that’s vulcan de fuego, and i was there for that eruption, and for another on that took place in june of 2019, fuego erupted in an odd location, out his side inside of from the top, and wiped out entire villages, shut down main roads that are still not open, and had a death toll in the hundreds. my dad was part of the relief efforts. guatemala has so many eruptions that aren’t even viralised.

The third volcano had the shape of question mark

The way that first one blew the clouds away 🤯 WOW, I really hope I get to see something like that in real life before I die that was BOSS

In my small city, we have a beautiful volcano across our lake. It's been quiet since before my grandma was even born. I hope we see an amazing eruption some day, but hopefully not a violent one.

The biggest eruption I've seen was from Mount St. Helens. When I found out about it in history class, I asked my mom and she told me she managed to sleep right through it!

"have your camera ready, you'll never know what you'll capture" more like "have your camera ready because the camera guy always survives"

When you post a video, as an expert, you should study why the 'clouds' were "pushed away" in Papua New Guinea, Mt Tavervar. They were not clouds per se, but the effect of the shock wave compressing water vapour into visible droplets as is often seen in nuclear detonations where there were no visible clouds prior to the explosion.

If yellowstone is a disney princess: "I won't be silent, you can't keep me quiet, won't tremble when you try it, all I know is I won't go speechless."

I live in the Philippines and I was there when the volcano erupted in January 12, 2020. That volcano was called "Taal Volcano".

Makes my day so much better underworld does !!!💯💯😁

"Today we have cameras. Cameras can film volcanoes. People can then watch these videos as if they were actually there." I was unaware of this. Thanks.

Imagine waking up getting ready to go to work going about your day when all off the sudden BOOOOOOM !!!!!🌋

The shockwave isn’t pushing the clouds, it’s the drop in pressure behind the shockwave that is momentarily cooling the air and causing the clouds to momentarily appear. You see the same sort of thing on air aircraft’s wings st takeoff for example.

Watching because in Barbados during covid we are affected by st vincent volcano.

Agreed on Yellowstone that Tonga underwater eruption was a problem though

The casual pun at 7:04 😂😂😂😂

I have friends in Guatemala, I remember checking on them when it happened. I actually went there in 2018 in July and can remember my grandmother in particular being worried for me since she had seen the news about the eruption a month earlier. I remember even on my first trip there in 2009 when I was staying in Antigua there was a volcano you could see from my hotel that would often let off a puff. Just in the 9 years difference (stayed again in Antigua, though I did land and fly out from Guatemala City) that volcano had gotten bigger, I wouldn't doubt if we hear something on that one sometime soon (not too sure which one it is, otherwise I would look it up).

Mt. St. Helens was the most incredible eruption actually caught on camera, when the side of the mountain slid.

Volcano: *erupting Humans: gets as close as possible whilst high fiving 😂

The clouds weren't being moved by the blast. That was the moisture that's absorbed in the air being forced out by the sudden high pressure from the blast wave.

5:02 "Ohh conchetumareee weon" I as a chilean, can relate to that 😂😂

Me watching this knowing that the dormant volcano near my house could kill me if it “felt like it” one day.

dang, and to think that avatar Roku battled two of these monsters at once really shows how courageous he was, even in his old age.

Vocano: bruh im gon to exspold Us: bruh u need pills

It’s amazing...something so beautiful can be so dangerous!

2:15 That's not the shock wave pushing the clouds away, but the shock wave created a sudden change in pressure and temperature in the humid air and caused moisture to condense and then evaporate again.

I remember when taal erupted, its near cavite and laguna which i and my grandparents live in, when it erupted there was like so much ash and it was thundering,its crazy how taal can maintain such a beautiful cone like shape after that

1:44 Woah,, I was like: ''Hm, Ok,, but that was pretty small. Shockwave should be a weird rippling of the water.'' Then, my headphones almost fell off!! 😅😂

Fun fact: Taal used to be a supervolcano The whole caldera is the whole volcano, it became smaller because of its past eruptions Much bigger than Mayon Volcano

i’ve been to Vesuvius and i’ve seen body’s from the eruption ages ago, i didn’t get to climb up but it’s pretty cool! I’ve also seen mount etna which had been exploding recently

5:48 as a filipino Taal volcano was worse before but thank you for adding us :DD

5:42 That is both terrifying and beautiful at the same time.

I dont get how footage of the volcano actually ERUPTING instead of just smoke is the last on the list

Man. The eruption of Taal Volcano was the opening ceremony of the pandemic.

Them: 1:23 "Jumping at the chance to see it..." Me: (Hell naw) Jumping at the chance to escape, quickly grabbed supplies and barricaded in a bunker. "But you should see it, it's so pretty..." "Nah, I'm good."

The clouds dispersing above from the shockwave 🤯, so surreal

My god! That shock wave was absolutely incredible in first video

I’m having a very hard time comprehending the speed with which the first one’s cloud went up. I can’t- that’s just mind boggling.

i did the vulcan de fuego on my trip to Guatemala, while I was there it was erupting every 20 minutes or so, I also went to the same spot as these guys as part of a midnight activity called volcano running (Not the same as he marathons), essentially it was our tour guide giving us headlamps and we ran from our basecamp on Acatenango and back (5km/3.1miles ish) in pitch black with a 40 minute stop at this spot, enough time for 2 eruptions, though the forests and ash to the viewpoint as seen in the video, its around 500m from here to the summit and as far as our guide would allow us, still risky as it was spitting out rock and ash some that landed within 20m or so from us, but it was a rush an thrill non the less

the clouds looked epic running away from the volcanoes scared lol

Lava is mostly made of two elements - Si (the symbol for silicon) and O (the symbol for oxygen). Together, they make a very strong bond and then get together with other elements, like Fe (iron), Mg (magnesium), K (potassium), Ca (calcium), and more.

The clouds don't move. The pressure wave has a zone of reduced pressure behind it. there, water from the air condenses for a short time. this can also sometimes be observed at the end of the wing when aircraft are landing.

We have so much more volcanic activity in Guatemala that hasn't been viralized. It is amazing and at the same time worth of great respect living in a country with such volcanic activity as Guatemala. Hopefully our people will became more attract to their nature and share with the rest of the world a part of nature that is uncommon for the majority of countries across the globe.

“This volcano has a history of eruptions.” Don’t all volcanoes have a history of eruptions?😂

Me watching this video while living on a volcanic island in the Caribbean😭

The first one is a great demonstration of the difference between the speed of light and the speed of sound.

the way the clouds moved away at the shockwave of the first volcano it looked like something straight out of an anime.

0:25 bro really explained the concept of a camera.

Thanks youtube. This is the exact content I’m interested in at 3:14 AM

The clouds aren't being pushed away. The supersonic movement of the shockwave is causing the water vapor in the air to be instantly transformed into a cloud for a second. The same happens when fighter jets pass the sound barrier.

The amount of power these things produce is staggering

Without joking I'm always ready for the second Krakatoa explosion

It's amazing to me how so many people around the globe build towns/cities at the base of an active volcano! Talk about CLUELESS!!

Taal Volcano has been active again it's on alert LVL 2 RN. 3/9/2021

Finally some clear footage

When you need to hit the ten minute mark but you've only got 50 seconds of footage.
