Golly
That lightning bolt, woof.
Thanks for the spoiler alert. I was still on the previous episode when I first saw this.
Sunsets are gonna be great soon.
The ash cloud is clearly grey. Bad caption.
fuck those fish in particular
How is the boat this “close”? Would it not make a monstrous wave when that thing erupts?
One of those is gonna kill a large percentage of humanity one day. That is terrifying to even ponder.
Good googly moogly

Has there been any video of the initial eruption? (Not the Satellite view)
Pretty sure this the eruption from the day before, not the ‘big one’
My home made measurement equipment captured the pressure wave, 17.000+ km away in Germany https://imgur.com/a/iLVzuWd
After a five thousand year gestation, the Mother Earth starts to have contractions as she pushes, a flash of light and a big boom, the new baby island is born.
Mother nature out there reminding us we still ain’t shit.
this looks like the eruption that happened on Friday, the day before the big one… not the massive one that happened today. This is from Scott Manly’s video on the eruptions showing the same footage and explaining it better: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zoMRwyNhqJ4&t=350s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zoMRwyNhqJ4&t=350s)
Hold on so this absolutely massive eruption cloud was already there BEFORE the big explosion?
Does lighting always happen when a volcano erupts or is it just a coincidence?
Damn, Nature, you scary
Celestial coming through…
The colossal titan has spawned
I think this is friday’s eruption, not the monster one from yesterday. Satellite based radar images show the newly formed island that you can see here was completely destroyed yesterday.
Donno about you guys, but i welcome our lord Tiamut
It’s weird that this and many more active volcanoes are closer to Australia than it’s own active volcanoes, which are on McDonald & Heard Islands, which are in the southern Indian ocean basically just south of the mid point of a triangle between Australia, Madagascar & Antarctica.
banana for scale?
God Bless Tonga
I’m in New Zealand and we heard it. Unbelievable
Would a volcano eruption that big potentially have a cooling impact? I wonder if all that ash that ends up floating in the atmosphere would be enough to block or reflect sunlight back out to space and cool the earth somewhat.
