This is from Martin Rietze, volcano chaser extraordinaire, and is absolutely the best video and pictures I have seen of the eruption thus far (see the source link) -- it's really some of the best video footage of a volcanic eruption I've ever seen, period. If you've got speakers and you've got freedom, crank up the sound. It's the next best thing to being there.

That is just unbelievable.
It would have killed some poor soul caught out in it.

Do you know, or think that this eruption could have anything to do with the explosion in the Gulf, or if the drilling could have caused the eruption? Since it was during the same time frame, it just made me wonder.

No connection whatsoever except the timeframe. But I commend you for being aware of current events.
