It began with a plume of brilliant white smoke, billowing silently from the volcano's rugged crater before mushrooming into an ominous black cloud. By the time their tour guide had yelled at them to take cover it was too late for newlyweds Matthew and Lauren Urey. The couple from Richmond, Virginia, were soon engulfed in a suffocating fog of molten ash, scorching their flesh, pummeling them with debris and plunging their dream honeymoon into a living hell.

I feel sorry what happened to this couple but you did go on an excursion to an active volcano. so if Yellowstone blows up everyone at the park can sue too?

[C19fan]

I love all these people who claim they love nature until it bites them in the arse. The same people will then claim they want the safety of Disney World.

[ArtDodger]

Exactly!

That’s a good one...

so if Yellowstone blows up everyone at the park can sue too?

I can imagine the Ambulance-chaser adverts on local TV, looking to sue everyone from the National Park Service to Smokey the Bear.

... if Yellowstone blows up everyone at the park can sue too?

If Yellowstone blows up everyone at the park [and 50 miles around] will be dead.................

[a fool in paradise]

Volcano angry.

[C19fan]

I have been to Yellowstone, Mt Lassen, and Mt Shasta. I understand there is a risk one of those could blow. I assumed the risk.

[cuban leaf]

The families of all the bodies strewn over the side of Mt. Everest should sue...someone.

Until the alligators get you.

I would suspect that they had to sign somewhere to go on this excursion....

its horrible what happened but if you're going to see an active volcano, expect the worse...

[Popman]

I wonder if they signed a hold harmless agreement ? ...

Entering into an active volcano area seems pretty stupid.

Looking at the photos, they both got really messed up.

Good News!.....it’s been shut down for a while but resuming operations tomorrow!

"claiming the cruise line ignored warnings"

Didn't the couple ignore the same warnings? It's not like they did not know the volcano was there

[Responsibility2nd]

Horribly disfigured.

But think about what a great story it will be to tell their grandchildren.

[Carlucci]

Geological time includes now.

Lauren: Can we get a little closer to that steaming molten lava dear?

Mathew: Sure, why not, what could it hurt?

so if Yellowstone blows up everyone at the park can sue too?

Yes. Everyone AT Yellowstone Park can sue, and their cases are already ruled on as a win. The ashes of the dead Park visitors can collect the ashes of the money at the giant mound of ash formerly known as the MIDWEST.

The guy is an engineer, and they let the cruise company “do the thinking for them”.
