Yes, but it’s presented by Doctor Evil and made out of Liquid Hot Magma.

Still safer than driving a car…in Italy

Particularly the old “Squeeze Alley” in Naples.

LOL nothing more fun than a cab ride in the Naples Back Alley Grand Prix. I got to see Mt Etna {not erupting} from Naval Air Station Sigonella back in the late 1970’s. In all reality Taranto has to be the armpit of Italy though. Hated the place.

Where one sees "dormancy" read "quiesence".

Nice vocabulary exposition there, Sunken! 😊

I nearly fell into one of the Mt. Hood vents many years ago.

Ever been to Naples?

They live up the side of a volcano.

Then there’s Camp Flegrei.

Etna is the least of Italy’s worries.

That would be very bad.

Italy allows people to be as stupid as they want to be.

It would have been about a 15-foot fall onto rocks. Fortunately I was able to self-arrest with my ice axe before sliding in. After that, we put on our crampons for the rest of the climb. Should have had them on before that.

How dare Nature pollute the skies and atmosphere like it does. Call in Greta Thuneberg so she can rant and rave against Mt. Aetna. How dare it!

Near the end of the video were 2 people running towards the explosion.... I guess being hit by rocks or engulfed in hot gasses would get them “clicks” and “Views” and “Likes” on TikTok and Youtube and Instagram....
