    In 1973 my grandfather was sent to Heimey to save the town. He drove a bulldozer where they would create giant walls of ash to protect the town. He was maybe 200m away from from the crater and he remembers how large pieces of lava landed on his bulldozer and how intense the heat was.

    The 1815 eruption of Mt Tambora was a VEI 7 eruption.... But the wah wah eruption.. 30 million years ago was the strongest... A vei 8 one.. Even stronger that yellowstone that occured 650000 years ago and lake toba 75000 years ago.!!!!!

      So was Mt Samalas Rinjani in 1257AD which caused the year without summer & a global Winter that caused one of the largest famins in human history.
      That was also a VEI 7 which is just short of a super volcanic erruption.

    I was there when Mt. Pinatubo explode. We are one of the lucky that survived.
    That lahar became a source of income for people now. A company employed the villages to bring lahar for constructions and sculptor use because it's as thick as cement when it dries up. Besides it became a tourist attractions. It was just an ordinary mountain before. Nobody knew it was a big Volcano.

Punongbayan (RIP thank you sir for your years of dedication to help the filipino people). With Punongbayan's colaboration w/ US geologist at Clark air base, people were evacuated at the right time.

    Dont forget Mt Samalas that erruption was so massive it caused a period of global cooling and a massive world wide famine that killed millions of people in the year of 1257AD.
    That erruption was rated as VEI 7 which means it was only a thousand times lower than a super volcanic one.
    Today this volcano is well known about but until 2012-2013, it was a total mystery as the volcano no longer exists as it was destroyed by the shear power of the explosion.
    Nower-days all that remains is a very large caldera on the island of Lombok snd has an active volcanic complex known as Mt Rinjani.

    VEI 7 isn't even considered a "super eruption". The 1815 eruption of Tambora was THE most powerful eruption in recorded history. It was a VEI 7 eruption, YET it's dwarfed by VEI 8, the most destructive eruptions on Earth. The eruption of Lake Toba was thousands of times greater than that of all the volcanoes featured in this video COMBINED and was the largest blast the planet has seen in the last 2 million years. And the scariest part is that there were EVEN MORE POWERFUL blast even further back in the planet's history.

      The Toba Supereruption was the largest eruption in recorded history. Even outbulking the gigantic Huckleberry Ridge eruption of Yellowstone, 2M years ago!... You cant compare Krakatoa with that!. Toba was about 250x more intense then the 1883 Krakatoa Eruption!

      Consider the local residents as" VERY lucky" that the Taal didnt 'proceed' to erupt, as was feared!
      Taal is a very unique volcano. Not just because its a volcano, in a lake, inside a volcano-crater, inside a lake(though this significantly increases its hazard!). The magma-composite of the Taal's chamber contains véry high concentrations of Sulphur! When this reaches the surface in masses(10-100x what has erupted in 2020), and contacts Oxygen and Carbon-molecules(Which are about 80% of our atmosphere? CO2?) you get a hyper/mega-chemical reaction because of this, creating a Giant-Dirty Bomb, on top of the 'usual volcanic hazard' of widespread ashfall and the pyroclastic surge! I read that Taal's eruption was 'only' scaled around a VEI-2. Which is (again,, luckily!) nowwhere near the 1991 eruption of the Pinatubo, which was a strong VEI-6: about 10.000x as powerful! (I dont know if you recall the gigantic ashcloud, piling up at the Pinatobo-crater, back then, but thats was a terrifying sight! Especially if you know what a volcanic cloud of that magnitude will do!). Unlike Taal, Pinatubo does nót have such high concentrations of Sulphur. Yet Pinatubo's summit, is snow-covered, which melted, causing heated mud-ash streams called Lahars, which 'sucked away' entire villages!
      The Taal isnt as highly elevated as a Pinatubo, but that doesnt make it less dangerous, on the contrairy; a bíg stronger eruption of the Taal, could have crached the crust between the Magma-chamber, and the surface, causing the LAKE to FLUSH in..... You almost dont wanna know what would happen if the lake-water, would contact that 'contagious sulphuric magma'.....Not even the biggest nuclear bomb in the world, would come close to the consequenses!
      The direct vicinity of Taal would be covered in a few méters of suplhuric ash; very (rotten-egg)smelly ash! Poisonous even to breathe in! Poisonous to the ground and vegetation. yet the global 'aftermath' would be even bigger; Due to the high concentration of suplhuric particles going atmospheric, 'even a VEI-5'eruption of Taal(brrr...) could compare to the catastrophe that followed the Tambora-eruption; That many sulphuric particles in the atmosphere would literally reflect a few percentages of the sun's rays, causing earth-temperatures to drop. In the first years of this aftermath, the climate would be going haywire, just like in 1816: the 'Year without Summer', which followed the incredibly powerful(VEI-7) Tambora-eruption!
      The wold avoided a catastrophe, with Taal going to sleep again..... Though its not entirely over: Experts predict Taal to go to sleep again now, but seismic activity is still ongoing, yet at a lighter pace.... One wrong quake, cracking the wrong basalt-layer could still trigger a reaction and a bigger eruption!

Hundreds of cubic kilometers of ash and pumice will fume out of the Valley, going atmospheric. Yellowstone is an 'Armageddon-Volcano'. It has the potency to wipe out 90% of the human race with a VEI-8 eruption! THe US will 'suffer the biggest damage', due to the intial eruption and the thickest ashlayers, yet, the ashplume will spread across the entire northern hemisphere. Southeast Asia will still receive a few centimeters of ashfall from a Yellowstone-VEI-8. and after a week or two, it'd will have traveled across the globe, to reach back to the Eastcoast; Washington DC and New York

    The Mount St. Helens 1980 eruption isn't going to lead to a "mega eruption". Assuming you're trying to reference "super vocanoes", the underlying tectonic substructure that produced both Mount St. Helens and other volcanoes in the Cascadia chain and has absolutely nothing to do with the volcanic hot-spot plumes that are associated with "super volcano" eruptions.

    They don't even mention VEI 8 - the threshold for a true supereruptiion. Campi Flegrei is a true "Super" so it's a good representation but they need to include VEI 8 - topping the VEI scale at 7 doesn't cut it.

    The super volcano will erupt - perhaps even faster than you imagine...
    You don't have to be an expert to suspect that the destructive potential of the Campi Flegrei is similar to that of an eruption of the Yellow Stone.
