I always thought that the Grapevine editor in chief and his videographers were a class act, but this was one of the best overviews of the volcanic system that I have seen so far. How you manage to keep walking up steep trails in bad weather and high air pollution without getting out of breath astounds me. It's very hard to give a coherent view of all this complex and changing geology, but your talk plus the breathtaking video views pulled it all together.
I agree. Very good. Very very good. Edit. The presenter carried a set of notes around and barely looked at them! Very very good. Am I getting repetitive???
yes, talking coherently toward a camera in a foreign language is difficult enough, doing this during hiking is even more difficult, congratulations Alina! Good Job!
Kudos to the camera-person who is walking backwards and sideways up a steep hill and still keeps the subject in the frame. :-) Content is always great.
That's cameraman Art. He has the ability to take these fantastic shots and never falls as he's doing it. His slow panoramas and drone shots are the best in the biz.
What a fantastic report! It's hard to believe this young woman is 'just' an intern, she's so incredibly professional and good at the job. And thank you as always to Art for the stunning visuals of the volcano area
Art needs some awards for shooting these videos. Even the last one, just walking though the park...but half the time backwards and up slopes and still everything in frame. And these volcano ones on the sides of mountains. Impressive work.
Absolutely brilliant commentary and camera work as usual. The whole team is so professional and amazing in the effort they put in to bring us these broadcasts. Alina and Art, Kudo's to you for a great "Grapevine". Walking uphill in the Vog, speaking to camera, and Art, walking backwards, and around Alina, filming. Superb work both of you!
Nice job by Alina of hosting this video and just speaking without looking at a script. I’m always impressed by how so many Germans I’ve come across speak excellent English.
Good show Alina! Quite a hike! Amazing drone shots. Thanks for the “don’t walk on the lava” reminders. Too many are doing it, including some popular UA-camrs.
Great report, Alina, thank-you; and as always, Art is wonderful with camera and drone. 5 thumbs up for the reporting, camera/drone footage, and the nimble footwork. Take care and stay safe.
Magnificent and spectacular Eruption site video. All credits to the drone controller and cameraman. May this Sheild Volcano continue enlighten and amaze us.
Wanted to add that you Alina, have very good camera presence and you have a very good voice for reporting and such. I also was impressed on the amount of knowledge you ensured you had to present. Great work. I am sure this will really add to your CV and help you on your future
The whirring sound of the drone in the wind at the end is the best dystopic background music to these epic panorama shots. Thank you for another great podcast, Alina and Art!
Art is definitely getting more and cinematic in his opening shots. It's like the beginning of a Ridley Scott movie, probably featuring something with big teeth - so if Polly wants to get into acting... And welcome Alina - you did a terrific job on your first video - AWESOME pronunciation! Between yourself and John delivering the news, Valur might find himself out of a job when he comes back!
Great job, Alina! You make the multitasking of climbing and reporting look effortless. Also, I didn't know German is your native language. Your pronunciation in English & Icelandic seem spot on. And, I can't forget Art, who continues to show his mad skills at cinematography, including filming while waking backward over lava rock terrain! Such a talented, professional group at Reykjavik Grapevine!!! 💜🌍🌋🇮🇸🍀✌️😸
Alina and Art, you have made another wonderful video. It's amazing how the volcano has its own pattern - quiet for awhile, then amazing fountains and fast lava flow again. Thank you, Art for your expert video and drone work - you amaze me, doing so much walking backwards! Alina, you are an excellent video presenter. I hope we will continue to see you after Valur and Polly return from vacation.
That's a great job walking and talking. You read about volcanoes in school but seeing it boiling away like a pot of water in slow motion because of the scale of it is always amazing. Assuming they are lucky enough the rocks don't break or shift I see how people are thoughtless about how fragile their boots might be if the heat melts them but that person with the long robe touching the rock is just in another world of their own.
Thank you for your reporting Alina and Art, you did a great job! Kudos to Alina for talking while walking uphill, and to Art for great shots, including yet again filming while walking backwards. Keep up the good work :)
Thank you for lots of really interesting information and details about what the volcano and the scientists are doing, Alina. And, Art - as always - your drone and video photography is AMAZING! THANK YOU BOTH!!! :-)
Does anybody else realize how difficult it was to walk up a hill, watch where you were walking so as not to fall on your face, and still report useful content without notes for that length of time? Good grief that was impressive!
Love the care you take with pronunciation. The slender "r" sound at the end of a word is very like how it is said in Irish. All you might want now is your very own Pollý!
Alina is a natural! Bright future ahead for her! Love the newscasts & content throughout the week all the way from Wagga Wagga, New South Wales, Australia :-)
Great job Alina. Very professional with the information about the volcano and it's effects. Want to thank the man behind the camera who is excellent at what he does in various weather conditions. Thank you for not editing out Valur's respiratory therapy in one of the videos lol 🚬
I'm very much enjoying Alina's reporting and perspective. In the US, some folks use the word 'like' way too much, just as the use of 'um' or 'em', but I'm not trying to be a jerk - just saying. I think she is doing a fantastic job, and her dialect is perfect.
There is nothing wrong with constructive criticism, in my opinion. In the long run it helps shape an ever better reporter.. a win win all the way around.
In Canada too, it's so annoying to hear that many 'like's in a conversation. I don't know how they develope such habit, cannot correctly link what they want to say then use this filler?
Alina!! Bravo!! Great preparation and reporting, and I noticed you barely (if ever) looked at your notes in that single take - while hiking a steep hill!!!! Excellent work!!!
Those opening shots are fantastic! The view at the 3:00 mark really gives a good impression how big the volcanoe is becoming. Great video and Alina is doing a great job!
Awesome camera work from Art and excellent commentary from Alina. Views of the surrounding area I have not seen before. Thank you but we are still waiting to see Art’s face 😁
Very interesting. Alina did a great job and hardly no prompts from your notes. Art lovely photography of volcano as usual. Still churning out lava at good rate. What on earth is everyone going to talk about when the Volcano stops. Back to sheeps heads again!
What a delightful lady presenter. She was informative, and at the same time kept the interest there. Really enjoyed it thanks to her. Can't wait to see her again. Thank you from Australia
Alina, you did a fine job with this video report. Your thoughts were well organized but didn't feel like your presentation was stiff and rehearsed. Instead, it was natural and comfortable, as if you were sharing this amazing experience with a friend who can just sit and listen. Congratulations! I'm looking forward to your next volcano report.
Loved your broadcast today. Great job. Very informative. Another Hawaiian word for you. What you described, a hole over a lava tube with active flow, is called a skylight. Keep up the great work.
Thanks again for such an interesting update. The volume of lava is amazing and so beautiful but must admit I’m glad Australia is past such activity . Oh and full credit to the cameraman’s footwork. Best wishes from Shoalhaven Coast Australia
It is really quaint to here people in Iceland say the weather is hot when the temperature reaches 16 degrees Celsius or 60 degrees Fahrenheit. In the US a summertime high of 16 degrees Celsius would be considered abnormally cold. This week in Texas, my location the temperature routinely reaches 35 to 38 C. Now that is hot.
@@traceyhacking7109 It's been miserable and DRY in Utah for so long now. Off topic, yes, but it's a sad sign of the damage climate change is doing to our world.
What's even more impressive is that she is probably fluent in at least three languages. Obviously english and german, but we can also assume icelandic.
Thank you Alina and Art for this beautiful video. I think you have both have created something very memorable. Your dialogue Alina was very relaxed and informative and felt like a conversation. Nicely done Alina. Art your videography achieved a new level and was superb. It was atmospheric and told the story so far about this amazing eruption. You captured its essence and for the last few minutes of the video it was a treat to give the eruption the last words. Thank you to you both.
great report Alina and as always Art camera work top class watching since the first eruption vids GVK coverage has been unbelieivable thank you both and all at Grapevine :)
Alina and Art...make your way to Meradalir and you will see LOTS of lava lakes and it is flowing fast and far. Ahh I see at the end you highlighted that....good going!

yes, talking coherently toward a camera in a foreign language is difficult enough, doing this during hiking is even more difficult, congratulations Alina! Good Job!
you might want to do something about the hair, a hat or band might keep you from squinting.
You did an excellent job, Alina!
Kudos to the camera-person who is walking backwards and sideways up a steep hill and still keeps the subject in the frame. :-) Content is always great.
LOL...I was thinking the same thing. She is watching every step and the camera is walking backwards. Be careful :)
They best camera action without it. I probably wouldn't watch so often. I have a short attention span. Lol
They best camera action. Without it i probably wouldn't watch so often. I have a short attention span. Lol
Yes, I secretly suspect Art is a quadraped.
That's cameraman Art. He has the ability to take these fantastic shots and never falls as he's doing it. His slow panoramas and drone shots are the best in the biz.
What a fantastic report! It's hard to believe this young woman is 'just' an intern, she's so incredibly professional and good at the job. And thank you as always to Art for the stunning visuals of the volcano area
It's so amazing how much the landscape has changed in 4 months. Again I am so grateful to Reykjavik Newscast for their coverage. Take care.
Art needs some awards for shooting these videos. Even the last one, just walking though the park...but half the time backwards and up slopes and still everything in frame. And these volcano ones on the sides of mountains. Impressive work.
You did a lovely job, thank you!
Nice work indeed. Great video as well as always, top banana.
Pretty impressive and kudos to Alina on great reporting!
Considering the wind conditions the audio quality is great. This lady is a great narrator.
Thank you Alina and your superb camera person Art. Excellent job from both of you.
Excellent report. Thank you Alina and Art for knowledgeable information and wonderful photography :)

Excellent photography as always by Art. Alina is a natural talent. Informative and enjoyable report. Again.
Thanks for the show! You do a great job of describing the eruption and including context to make it more intelligible.
Great job, Alina.
Well done Alina. It is quite a tour de force to say interesting things for over 10 minutes in a row in front of a camera... while you hike up a hill.
The whirring sound of the drone in the wind at the end is the best dystopic background music to these epic panorama shots. Thank you for another great podcast, Alina and Art!
Impressed with the quality of information here, thank you for your efforts.
It's not easy hiking up hill while talking and breathing in vog! You did great, sister! Thanks for all the information and for the expansive views.
Thank you!
Art is definitely getting more and cinematic in his opening shots. It's like the beginning of a Ridley Scott movie, probably featuring something with big teeth - so if Polly wants to get into acting...
And welcome Alina - you did a terrific job on your first video - AWESOME pronunciation! Between yourself and John delivering the news, Valur might find himself out of a job when he comes back!
Alina is doing a great job, and always amazing to see Art's videography.
Thanks to Alina and Art. Great pictures, especially the drone shots right over the cone.

Great all round combination of info and beautiful shots. Well done on your first solo Alina.
Great job commentating I really enjoyed thankyou 😊
I’m am so pleased my “Don’t walk on lava” slogan is getting used I just wish some of the hikers would take notice.
Great video as always.
Great video. Thanks to both Alina and camera person.
That's a great job walking and talking. You read about volcanoes in school but seeing it boiling away like a pot of water in slow motion because of the scale of it is always amazing.

Is Art walking backwards on that rough terrain while shooting Alina walking forward? Multi -multi. talented cameraman !!
He has a stabilizer-mounted camera.
I've wondered that in several videos. Reminded me of the saying, "Ginger Rogers had to do everything Fred Astaire did backwarfds and in high heels"
@@suenethercott2370 I'm not sure Art wears high heel, though
@@eljanrimsa5843 No, sturdy boots instead, which I, for one, am clumsy in, as I would certainly be in high heels.
Thank you for your reporting Alina and Art, you did a great job! Kudos to Alina for talking while walking uphill, and to Art for great shots, including yet again filming while walking backwards. Keep up the good work :)
Great update. Thanks.
Kudos to the intern for doing a good job filling in for her boss.
Very informative Alina, you are a natural. Art is as great as always. Thank you both. I send blessings from Oklahoma.
Thank you for lots of really interesting information and details about what the volcano and the scientists are doing, Alina. And, Art - as always - your drone and video photography is AMAZING! THANK YOU BOTH!!! :-)

Yeah, it's a bit difficult
Haha it was indeed a bit tough to not start panting like a dog when walking up the hill! :)
Love the care you take with pronunciation. The slender "r" sound at the end of a word is very like how it is said in Irish. All you might want now is your very own Pollý!
That was a very well done, informative newscast. I thoroughly enjoy watching it. View from Casper, Wyoming, USA. Thank you very much.
Alina is a natural! Bright future ahead for her! Love the newscasts & content throughout the week all the way from Wagga Wagga, New South Wales, Australia :-)
Thank you, William! :)

Awesome vid. You didnt even need the paper :).. and nice drone footage. Thx
i think valur can be happy this episode was great as always :)
Nicely done. Thx.
Great camera work, natural, well informed, presentation. Good job.👌
Great as always. Exceptional camera work. And Alina is a good narrator. Good job.
Thank you for this update. I look forward to it!! Great job 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
The collapsed roof of a lava tube is called a skylight
Alina! Thumbs Up! You’re great!
You shone as brightly as your coat, Alina. Excellent report but the real star is Art and his remarkable ability to be superb on all terrains.
Great job!
I'm very much enjoying Alina's reporting and perspective. In the US, some folks use the word 'like' way too much, just as the use of 'um' or 'em', but I'm not trying to be a jerk - just saying. I think she is doing a fantastic job, and her dialect is perfect.
There is nothing wrong with constructive criticism, in my opinion. In the long run it helps shape an ever better reporter.. a win win all the way around.
Here in the UK young people are always saying "like" !
In Canada too, it's so annoying to hear that many 'like's in a conversation. I don't know how they develope such habit, cannot correctly link what they want to say then use this filler?
Great job Alina and Art, thanks for the update x
What a trek around the volcano! The parting shots were impressive.
Great job Alina, your knocking it out of the park!
Perfekte Reportage, gute Infos und informative Bilder. Great !
Alina!! Bravo!! Great preparation and reporting, and I noticed you barely (if ever) looked at your notes in that single take - while hiking a steep hill!!!! Excellent work!!!
Those opening shots are fantastic! The view at the 3:00 mark really gives a good impression how big the volcanoe is becoming. Great video and Alina is doing a great job!
Great job on the newscast, thank you for the updates!
Great report. Thank you.
Drone and camera footage is superb. Great job Alina.
Excellent report!!
Where I live (in Brisbane) 15c would be a cold mid winters day.
Alina! Great job! Well done!
Awesome camera work from Art and excellent commentary from Alina. Views of the surrounding area I have not seen before. Thank you but we are still waiting to see Art’s face 😁
Nice and cool. Very interesting from the start to the end. Your Icelandic is great and more comprehensible for me.
Very interesting. Alina did a great job and hardly no prompts from your notes. Art lovely photography of volcano as usual. Still churning out lava at good rate. What on earth is everyone going to talk about when the Volcano stops. Back to sheeps heads again!
What a delightful lady presenter. She was informative, and at the same time kept the interest there. Really enjoyed it thanks to her. Can't wait to see her again. Thank you from Australia
Very nice reporting and camera work! Thank you so much for the effort you made to hike all that way and share information with us!
Thankyou very interesting
Alina, you did a fine job with this video report. Your thoughts were well organized but didn't feel like your presentation was stiff and rehearsed. Instead, it was natural and comfortable, as if you were sharing this amazing experience with a friend who can just sit and listen. Congratulations! I'm looking forward to your next volcano report.
The level on wich Alina manges to hide her german tongue is quite impressive 🙃
The way she says Reykjavik.... very charming.
Nice content. I can clearly picture out the area. You're doing great, it's not easy talking while hiking. God Bless you
I love the yellow jacket, it brightens the enviroment. Take care all
Impressive views and commentary. You go, Alina and Art!
I was wonderng about the polution in Reyjavik. It's basically like having a huge factory in the backyard.
Best update on the web, thanks.
Hello Alina, thank you for the very informative and professional update. I very much enjoyed your presentations.
Great camera work!!
Really enjoyed the Broadcast too.
The "precious fiber optic cables" are pretty precious. Losing that means a lot of necessary connectivity disappears.
Would we lose the livecams if the fiber was destroyed or are they on a different setup I wonder.
@@ddrr5988 I think they are via cell signal, vs land line.
Great information, such beautiful scenery. Excellent reporting, all around outstanding and so professional.
Loved your broadcast today. Great job. Very informative. Another Hawaiian word for you. What you described, a hole over a lava tube with active flow, is called a skylight. Keep up the great work.
Great Job! Thank you for the wonderful overview of the Volcano and the information on how it is effecting people.
Well done! Great Reporting and videographics! Good job everyone! Really enjoyed! Stupendous and informative!
The formation of Mordor is almost complete
Where the shadows lie.

Let us have a moment of admiration for the cameraman, who filmed this while walking sideways/backwards over broken rock.
Alina and Art...make your way to Meradalir and you will see LOTS of lava lakes and it is flowing fast and far. Ahh I see at the end you highlighted that....good going!
