- This video is for those interested in gaining more insights into the eruption. This video incudes all the video I have of the Jan 15 Hunga Tonga Hunga Ha'apai Eruption as seen from my window facing HTHH from the beginning of the eruption until the fall of the rocks and ash. Footage includes full time lapse of the Eruption's beginning until dark and additional footage shot on my phone and Canon dslr. The footage has been arranged in a sequential manner according to camera and time as much as possible and is labeled accordingly. I have included a little of the satellite footage of the about the same time period covered in my footage from the ground as watched it about 73 kilometre's from my lounge window. Enjoy.
This was a really great, and insightful video into the eruption. I did see some things that I thought were fascinating, that were mostly related to weather phenomenon:
WOW the clouds changing as we watch over just a few seconds, is FASCINATING!
🌋I was sick of seeing only the eruption,space view or a model of the eruption. I am very grateful to see the less eye pleasing parts. Thank you very much 🙏
It's weird how the majority of the pressure waves are at an extremely low frequency, and thus not audible. The wavelength must be massive. The audible noises are of a much smaller amplitude, but also a much higher frequency / shorter wavelength. I'm not sure the waves are being created by the same process.
Now I know what it must have been like hearing those loud booms during the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa.
Well done documenting this. It’s the small details that matter and paint the picture. I was sitting on the airport apron at Wellington listening to ATC, an airplane on the approach and watching our altimeter move up and down as the pressure waves went through. It had everyone wondering what was going on. There was the nagging thought of the potential tsunami too, and how soon and how bad it might be.
Thank God you don't have any ads running at the moment whole watching this video 😅
Thank you for having the foresight to make the recordings, and for taking the time to put this data together. School teaching here in Barbados - will be sharing with students.
Thanks for the extended video. This probably represents the most comprehensive first hand report available of the eruption.
Hey there, it's been a few years since this eruption happened. I hope you're doing okay. I can't even imagine how scary that day must have been for you and everyone else. Some other footage shows different aspects of the eruption, but your footage is like the holy grail. Looking back now, do you realize that your footage will be one of the most studied examples of pressure waves, and so on, ever? It's classic and valuable footage, regardless. I want to personally thank you for sharing it.
Thanks for this amazing first hand account. I heard those explosions from my place 2000 km away in Waipara NZ at the time I had no idea what was happening. It sounded like blasting from a quarry to our north east. The Barometric measurements were extremely interesting as were the photos of the cloud movements.
Terrifying but rare event. This was the largest volcanic explosion in I think at least a decade, and geologists now think it might be the largest steam explosion of this kind possible - a deeper volcano’s explosion would be tamped down by all the water above it, while a more shallow eruption wouldn’t have as much water available to it to flash to steam.
This is absolutely fascinating - thank you for your amazing documentation! I’ve just come across this, almost two years later, and am sorry I wasn’t dialed in when it occurred.
You are similar to me during adverse events such as this. Focusing on and keeping calm through data details, documenting, and photographing/filming. I do the exact same with weather phenomenon where I am in Canada (the bad ice storm we had a few years ago was fascinating, with power flashes as the ice accretion on tree branches snapped them and hit the lines, and only light tinkling sounds being heard due to the density of the air’s moisture).
Please send the video to universities for study, this video may be more significant than any video of volcanism yet, there is so much data to go through especially with the added barometer association to the listed timeline. We haven't had an eruption on earth like this so heavily recorded, and your proximity to the eruption makes things even more fascinating
Learned much thanks to you putting this together. Near and after the end I couldn’t stop trying to clear my ears. 😅
Thank you so much for this!! It is incredibly helpful for reference points!
This was an excellent documentation. Thank you. I hope everyone is doing well over there.
Barometric pressure tells you the explosion is coming that was cool.
A very calm report, given that he doesn't know if it's over, stays the same, or gets much, much worse.
