In Greek Mythology, it says that Zeus defeated Typhon who is the father of Monsters by managing to trap him underneath Mount Etna. When Mount Etna starts spitting out lava, it's Typhon trying to get out.
Awesome and beautiful. Good mix of closeups and distance, day and night, with no talking or music to hide the sounds of the eruption. I appreciated the lack of shaking camera too.
My grandmother " nana" was raised at the foot of Etna. I remember sitting on the patio with her in the summer, eating fresh tomatoes and her telling me stories of the old country including Etna. She was born in 1874 and came to America after 1900. Giuseppina was her name and my grandfather was Nicolo. I will never forget them.
@@Rotisiv The etymology of the name Etna would seem to derive from the toponym Aἴτνα (Aitna) which would derive from the Greek verb αἴθω àithō, that is "to burn". Etna was in fact known by the Greeks as Αἴτνη (Àitnē) and by the Romans as Aetna.
I went to this volcano 🌋 on 2017 but it wasn’t erupting. But then I went to Stromboli and saw the eruption from a Ship 🛳 at night. It was the most beautiful thing I ever seen in my entire life!
Great camera work. The detail you showed us was fantastic as was being able to hear the sounds! Thank you for letting us share such a spectacle. I only wish I was there to see for myself.
Riprese : una meraviglia,non basterebbe un grazie per averlo condiviso gratuitamente con noi . Complimenti è da premio grazie davvero *Quanto mi piace*
I appreciate all the elements this volcano showed. The different kids of smoke, paraclispia heat coming down the mountain, the train of lava, and the sound. I appreciate the sound specially. I don't think I've ever heard it before.
Images fantastiques !!! Merci de nous partager ça ! C'est si beau qu'on en oublie que c'est dangereux ! Un véritable spectacle : je ne m'en lasserai jamais ... 💖💖👍👍
Incredible footage. Thought I was crazy to love watch volcanoes and tornadoes, hurricanes . I find them all fascinating especially with such wonderful footage. Love lightening too! Lol Thanks again!
Great video! It was very interesting and to hear the explosion is great. We were there 3 days before the eruption and she was just letting off some steam. Sorry we missed this
I love how explosive it is... You've got all you would expect from an Indonesian eruption like Semeru or Lewitobi, the thick lava dome oozing out from the crater and the squeeze-outs of pasty lava overtopping the lip and collapsing into pyroclastic flows. All the while, sizable explosions, producing heavy clouds of ash, vent out from the top. Very impressive.
Fun fact Greek Legends say that the reason that volcano's so active is because it's the prison of typhon, a monstrous giant so powerful not even the gods or zeus himself could beat him, but zeus had a 2nd chance for victory when the fates poisoned typhon with a fruit that caused him to loose strength but was alive & immortal, legends also say he & his wife echina ( a snake woman) are the mother & father of monsters, giving birth to all the monsters in greek mythology, hydras, chimeras, sphinx, Cerberus, you name it
Just @ Mt St Helens last week--June 26, 2022--yet didn't see anything as cool as this. Did see a herd of white mountain goats, which I'd never seen before on top of Harry's Ridge.
It kinda looks as though the whole volcanic mountain is about to be blown to smithereens. This hopefully (🙏) will not happen this the reasons for so many active vents on and around the mountain. Instead of just one small vent with gases & magmatic matter been bottled up to a point of 'mountain go "ka-boom!"' so to speak brilliant post🌋🌋🌈🌋🌋
I climbed Etna in 1980 something - a little old lady was selling half bottles of Sicilian red Etna wine (I still have!) and I had collected a little black rock 🪨 as a souvenir too….it’ll be a while before anyone is selling wine near the top now I hope!! Stunning footage!
Fun fact!: When revenge of the sith was being filmed, they took some shots of lava flowing down the sides of Etna when it was erupting. So that's where the real lava is from.
Imagine when earth began these eruptions went on for hundreds of thousands of years all over the world (if not millions) creating a atmosphere so thick it rained for hundreds of thousands of years more.
Great video. How much carbon is being put into the atmosphere? Why isn't some government putting a carbon tax on this? You have to let Trudeau get a handle on this.
