I remember going through the Strait of Messina at night back in the Seventies aboard the USS JFK, and seeing the overcast clouds above lit red with the reflection of the lava-filled caldera of Mount Etna.

We also had a man overboard (not THAT night) as we passed through the narrowest part. We had a guy who, it was thought, had leaped overboard to desert. He was never found, but I think, if not perhaps for currents, he could have made it swimming to shore.
