  1. We hear the thunderstorm from far away it's a dark sign to the end of days. The earth stays still the skies on fire it's nature's revenge for what we've done this is doomsday. It's doomsday.

  2. dAM, lost home and the land, you cant build there no more.

  3. How the hell do you build your house next to a nearby volcano? Literally a few meters away?!🤦

  6. Imagine living in that town and watching this video… 😢😢😢

  7. I'm not sure that those real estate developers did their seismic reading due diligence… 😑

  8. This is pure lack of technology or knowledge how can house built near valcono…its totally research fault…

  9. I am certain that the lava flow could have been diverted. Icelandic fire departments have done so in the past. Hoses deliver water to the edge of a flow, cooling it just enough to form a solid barrier, diverting the flow away from houses. I wonder why they did not try that here.

  10. Someone call Tommy Lee Jones to stop the flow of this volcano

  11. Why would you live on a volcano?

  12. Mother Nature can be a bitch sometimes. And according to geologists, this outbreak of eruptions is only just beginning.

  13. Fabulous site mother nature is showing them their not welcomed on her land.

  14. Hope everyone got cleared out and are Safe🙏

  15. This could practically be from the trailer for Stranger Things S5…

  17. How long will it flow??
