Great footage! The perspective is little deceiving on video #1 with the guy walking in front of the scene circa 3:15, but check out the boulder shot into the air circa 3:07...that is a huge piece of rock and it just hangs there. Amazing! [sorry, couldn't get the links clickable]

Beautiful, terrifying and mesmerizing footage from the volcanic eruption in Iceland. I watched it all and wondered at what point do you yell “Let’s get the hell out of here!”

I slept on the Kilauea volcano on the big island of Hawaii...
I went to the active Mt. Aso volcano in Japan and had to run because of the sulphur alarms going off...
I would not want to be near this Icelandic volcano!
This footage is awesome.

It’s tricky, maybe impossible to gauge the distance between the camera which took video #1 and the actual volcano. Clearly, there is a ridge, then a valley in between same. These things are distorted by perspective, etc;

I can easily say that a hardhat will not protect you from a rock the size of any one of: washing machine, car, bus, or house coming down on your head from several hundred feet in the air!

When is Obama going to give Iceland a stern talking to like he did BP?

I dunno, but I’d have to bet it will start with “For too long....

or,

“No longer can we tolerate the uncontrolled spewing of pollutants into the atmosphere we all breathe.”
