- A brand new 3D view of the Iceland volcanic eruption in Geldingadalur, Iceland that was taken on June 2, 2021. It looks to me that 2 paths are in danger of the lava flowing over them.

If people are stupid enough to get trapped on the hill, then the Icelandic version of firewalking is in order, streamed live! Thank you Rob for your excellent coverage and footage.
I hope some people do get stuck there, and are forced to wait a long time before rescue choppers arrive. And then they should be sent a bill for the cost of the rescue.
Logistics will ensure their wait be excruciating... if not by human form time, self preservation and the fear of dying will most likely slow down their own conception of said time ...
Having said that,
I love that the Authorities have walked away! Giving responsibility back to each Self! ... I have zero doubt they are prepared for dealing with all that foresee heading their way .. as well as they can be anyway.
However, I don't agree with Folks behaving as though it's a given! I also feel they absolutely should pay for their own rescue! Be second in line to anyone whom by no fault of their own are needing rescue!
And they should ABSOFUCKINGLUTELY add a huge arse Stupid Tax into the cost of the rescue!
Yes, televise it! Please!
Just a by the by ...
Here in Australia, should we have this situation... our dumbarse government would have made it 100% non accessible by now! ... they don't like our folk having the capability to think for ourselves! So they rid us of any need under the b.s. guise that they're doing it for our own good!🤦♀️🙄😊
I m sure that the government has contingency plans for any evacuation. Also the lava progressing towards the path has slowed and hence cooled. A litter construction activity of dumping rubble and increasing the height of the pathway will solve the problem of connection and access to the best view. Having a sadistic approach does no good to anybody.
The silence of World Leaders about this potential Global disaster speaks volumes. 🤔
@@elizabethbrown8833 What global disaster ?
Great to see the 3-D view and get the "big picture"! This may go on for a long time so the lava flows are likely to grow and grow. Thanks for sharing :-)
3D map puts the lava flow into prospective and just shows how far its spread over the valley's. Just amazing to see. Been watching it from Day 1 when Bob first appeared. Just awesome.
Mandy, I'm thrilled to have been with you watching since day 2 in March! So glad I didn't miss this once in a lifetime event.
Another fan here from conception also! 😍😍😍
Me too. A 3d map of the 1st eruption and the progress would also be fantastic.
Ive watched it from day one.......
People stood by the first vent and got their pictures taken...
Even had hands on it.
You were right about the flow cutting off the path . This weekend has really changed the view. Thank you.
I am so glad that you explained the topography near the footpaths!
and where we can get our hot dogs as well. stunning info.
Thank you again for your clear description. This eruption may be rather small, but I guess it is the most watched eruption ever ;-).
Excellent video. If you decide to give up the day job you have an amazing voice for audiobooks 😀
Agree🙌
As do I.
Same here 🙌
Rob: Thanks for the explanation of the 3D map. Very well done. Your videos and this map helps me understand other UA-camrs descriptions of how / where the lava is flowing!
Thanks again!
From across the pond in 🇨🇦!!!
Stay safe, stay sane, be well
I must have spent an hour just looking at that 3D map. Many thanks for posting the link.
Very useful for me. I'm flying to Iceland today and plan to visit the volcano over the next 2 days. Hopefully, I get a good view. Safety first.
The path to the nearest viewing point to the volcano, which people have been mostly using, was overrun with lave at 7 am this morning and this is now inaccessible!
Im pretty jealous^^ i wanna go there too.. have a good trip!
Do you have a YT channel? I plan to visit Iceland soon and would like to see the best places to check out (other than the volcano, that is a given)?
Mandy, Prospective ...Perspective.
xx😊💕🇬🇧🌋😊
Thank you! Finally I better understand the topography and lava flow. Please keep them coming! Again, thank you, thank you!
I'm glad to see lava is still flowing into Meradalir (in the Northwest); the less there is flowing into Natthagi means it'll take longer to reach the road
I can't believe the sheer stupidity and selfishness of man when they ignore instructions to enable their own safety! Anyone stranded on the mountain should be left there for a good few days to learn a lesson and when rescued, make them pay for everyone involved due to their selfishness. The view from trail 'B' is the best and closest. I think that the second lava flow may go both ways and not just join the Natthagì Valley. Just like fire, lava has a mind of its own. I appreciate these 3D views and all information about this eruption. What does it matter if some think it's small, I think it's absolutely fascinating! Thank you so much Rob, Kris.🇦🇺✌
Leave them. They wanna risk it let them go. They were warned. I wouldn’t save stupidity and alow stupidity to walk around society again. Less stupidity the better for all of us common sense people. It’s called a sacrifice.😂🤣💀😭
The Iceland folks have been more than accommodating to all of the visitors coming there. Folks need to heed their warnings and stay safe.
Thank you! Love the 3d map and your commentary! Yes the cute baby volcanos (fissures) are gone and now we have this beautiful monster releasing tons of lava every 5 minutes. 🤯
Thank you so much for sharing this and the link to it. Such an amazing tool for those of us half a globe away to be able to experience this beautiful natural wonder unfolding in real time.
Thanks. I really enjoy your 3d perspective. It is nice to see how the lava field is growing!
I love your 3D view of this volcano. I also love your informative and interesting narration. Please would you kindly continue your 3D modeling of the lava field and it’s progress. You are the best UA-cam Channel and content creator for this Iceland volcano. Thanks from an appreciative subscriber from The Blue Mountains west of Sydney Australia. Thanks for all your hard work and effort with these awesome videos. 👍👍👍👍. 🇦🇺 ❤️ 🇮🇸 😊😊😊😊😊😊.
Nice that’s what I needed to see. When I see normal footage I always try to make a map in my head. This made things much clearer.
That 3D view was quite fascinating! I wondered what the authorities were doing about people crossing the warning tape. Yes, they certainly have more pressing things to do than try to stop someone who is determined to win a Darwin Award. Well, the volcano may be "small", but it's certainly large enough for the people who live in its potential path!
I'm rooting for the lava... Go lava!
Talk about a hedge bet..XP
Excellent visualization. Needed that :-)
Thanks for the 3-D model presentation
This is so incredibly helpful. With so many cameras at moraine level, it's much easier to get the big picture from 10,000 feet.
this is exactly what i have been looking for ..this video
is much better than hundreds of videos coming from Iceland I guess most of these people are amateur and just posting a red lava in every single video I understand they are just having fun and sharing their experience but not so much info tho ..please keep us update and thanks a lot
Quick update: The path to the second viewpoint (the hill/mountain) is now completely blocked by lava. So happy I got a chance to see it from there before it was blocked.
Thanks Rob for taking time to explain its all fascinating 😀 xx
All I can say seeing the scope of the flood basalt lava field is just, wow.😳
Really cool video! Thank you for the best coverage of the eruption itself. Worth every moment!
Hubby and I have been watching since Day 1. Thanks for this 3D map. Very informative!
The poor mountains are being demoted to hills because of the lava . what a great video lesson on the typography of a lava flow. Thankyou . x
Excelent report! I enjoyed!
I really appreciate the three D views and explanations. Fascinating. Thank you.
Thank you for the 3D map you really explained the flow paths.Some people are too stupid and won’t listen to advice if they got trapped they’d soon be screaming for help.
That's so cool....its on its way to that walk path on both sides.
Thanks for this 3D overview!
Thank you, great 3D photo's of the path of lava.
Thanks for showing the new 3D view. New videos from long ridge (higher) look to be best path going forward but it is a longer route. Great 360 degree views but more exposure to weather.
The biggest concern is the fibre optic cable. It's a backbone for the internet, connecting North America with Europe (But not the only one luckily). They have begun laying a new cable 2 meters deep which is apparently enough depth to protect from the heat of the lava when it does come.
That's good to know. The government in Iceland seems very on top of things, which seems much less common here in the US. Still too many thinking, "If it ain't broke, why fix it?" 😕
@@erinmcdonald7781 Iceland also tops the list of "least corrupt governments".
@@paulmichaelfreedman8334 Truth! ✌️😸💜🇮🇸
@@erinmcdonald7781 as a bbc doctumentary on eyjafjallajökull's 2010 eruption and katla concerns says, " Icelanders have to live with fire under their feet on a daily basis." Thus ready if such disaster does suddenly occurs and been dealing with it since the area was settled, thus have plenty of experiences and writings and work arounds foe such disasters. Unlike the rest of the world, who seems to overlook their history and forbearer writings and expetiences on such till it is too late and stuff already happens. 😔'. Also machines do much of the work nowdays and nor much care is put into repair, actually in most cases, its cheaper to tear down and rebuild. But why do such BEFORE major geo structures pop off. Better off afterwards.
@@razorransom1795 Volcanoes rarely provide a schedule well in advance
Small eruption, sure... but its tourist/human friendly, unlike other eruptions. Thats why its actually a great eruption!
Thanks so much for the grand view!!!
Thanks for this video. It's the kind of big picture overview that I've been looking for for a long time.
Thank you for sharing this. The map shows which way the lava is flowing.
Much of the fluid lava is moving through lava tubes so it's hidden from view. The flows seem to be complex so there is that concealed hazard which could break through at any time. It is so risky ignoring the police who are there for everyone's protection. It was the same here in the UK during the height of the pandemic where many refused to stick to the lockdown needs and openly opposed the police - who again were trying to save lives. I am not there in Iceland, my last visit was in January 1980, so I am grateful that it's possible to watch all the fine video productions of the eruption. For many years I have kept Iceland close to my heart, but it has changed so much over the years that I almost don't recognise it now. For me with long memories, it is sad to see the effects of commercialism. I think that something that was so precious about Iceland those many years ago, has been lost. Thank you very much for your 3D presentations as they fill in many missing many items of technical data about the eruption. I shall keep watching. With kind regards, Paul, Sheffield, South Yorkshire.
Thank you so much for doing this video. It has been really hard to be able to put things into perspective & you did it the best way ever, by having a 3D map that showed the hills, the pathways to get from the carpark up to the volcano, & where the volcano is & where the lava is going. Very informative video. Hi from Queensland Australia.
Thank you for putting these 3D images up. Other people just show ground level images & I can’t get the bigger picture of this eruption.
My guy with the lava updates 🤘🏽🌋
Fascinating! The 3-D map is the most amazing eye candy. This makes it so much easier to see in my mind the realtime conditions on the ground!
Thank you. i go now to wander around and wonder at the newest volcano on the planet!
😀😀😀🙏🖖
Great video. Love seeing the path the lava flow is taking
With these 3d maps, I have been watching the northern side
I was just going to post something on that. How high are the lowest passes to the north compared to the current lava height in the lava flows to the north? It looks like the 3D maps, viewed at a good angle, have just enough detail to show the critical possible spillover points.
wow great 3D model! cant believe how much it has grown since we left iceland 2 days ago
This was excellent! Thank you, and thanks for the good commentary. I've seen video from path B (Gutn Tag's, I think). That videographer said he was going to climb the mountain on the _other_ side of the path A vantage point mount, giving him a higher view of the volcano and a clearer view of the channel from the volcano more clearly.
When Gutn Tog climbed the trail B, he said he would do the Long Ridge which he did and had a cameo on the live cam #2 😄
@@pollenayeung5815 July 18 now... Gutn Tog's videos have been excellent. I'm really looking forward to seeing video from his new drone.
It's very exciting! Love your videos. Watching from Nevada.
That map would be an incredible gaming map, especially if you could base it around problem solving for the lava flow.
thanks for a really honest helpful view of the overall picture. Haven't found anything like it elsewhere.
I am afraid the lava already has closed the path to the hill you mentioned. Hopefully, no one got stuck there because it has been foggy and nothing to see anyway. Thanks for your videos on the matter. For me who can not walk there because of my arthritis, I rely on my computer to see the eruption.
Hello Rob there! Another super video - love the map.
Wow! Long way ! Thank you 👍your orientation how to get closer & look at the lava is excellent ! Not easy and not for everyone! Dangerous. 🌋
You know people are going to get stuck up there and if they're going to be rude about it, then it's absolutely deserving.
Brilliant video. I watched the videos of the birth of this whole thing with the 24hr cameras, but then after a while stuff got busy and when I came back the landscape had totally changed and I wasn't sure which way was which. Only recently I started to get the gist again, but this really helped.
yup - it's a fact - a new area has been closed off by new lava stream this weekend
So good to be able to see it in 3D. Makes it clear where people were getting their footage from. Wish I could travel over!
I'm glad there's already a plan B path for when the lava cuts off the original one. Going in 4 weeks and was worried that all of the good views would be inaccessible.
Same for me. We want to come soon,but cannot decide if to go in 2 weeks including quarantine or go in 4 weeks, with completed vaccination. I just cannot decide... its driving me crazy haha. Thank you for the map. Do u think path b will still be accesible at the beginning of july?? I am also "afraid" the volcano will stop erupting 🤪
good video, I had no idea it was close to closing off the 2nd hill too but it t looks like that's going to happen eventually too
We have a local climb in Oregon which goes up a talus trail, and the saying goes: the trail you are climbing today wasn't here last year, and it won't be here next year. Each year the whole trail drops about a foot due to erosion and snow/ice movement. Volcanoes aren't what I'd call permanent structures. Even over the course of a few months I would say that at least 6 major trail changes to get to the cone have taken place.
BTW, these are great for understanding the whole picture of what is going on, so please keep them coming. On Hawaii there are a number of roads under lava, so at worst this will just be a short detour of life as we know it.
👌🏼Best thing u have done to explain the geography to all the viewers who cant come physically to watch the eruption. Amazing.
Can u show where the 1st eruption happened and a brief discription of the others in this 3d image.
2 suggestions
1. Why not do some construction and increase the height of the small pathway to the final view point.. So people can continue having excellent views up close
2. Is it possible to construct another wall near the road.. So that the lava keeps accumulating in the big valley. The valley is quite big and it will give enough time to keep increasing the height of the wall so as to save infrastructure and the road.
This was a great overview of the site, something that's been lacking from other UA-camrs.
Yes, Daily Icelandic! Love what you are providing - CONTEXT! Keep it up with the 3D maps!!!
If they can build a wall, they should build a bridge to the vantage point. All fantasy medieval style
Or simply increase the height if the small pathway. Dump some rubble and woala... the height is increased
I don't know how feasible it would be with all the convection heat, but a bridge over a lava flow would certainly be epic.
@@Leyrann One word. Zipline
Excellent video. You did an outstanding job of explaining what the lava is doing and where it’s going. Thank you, and keep producing more videos. I’ve subscribed and look forward to each new installment.
Thank you, keep these videos coming.
Thanks, this is what i've been looking for!
A fantastic video that puts it all into perspective, thank you.
Really very informative and yes exciting to see exactly what is going on and can understand the explanation so easily. Thank you so much
Yes, as others have said, thank you SO much for explaining the situation clearly! Really appreciate it! Greetings from Ohio, United States!
Thank you so much for sharing these 3D maps because it’s nice to see the whole landscape all at once!🌋😉🥸
Very good video. It really gives us a good perspective of the area. Thank you.
Interesting explanation and visuals. Thank you.
Thank you for this 3D map.
Thank you for walking us through the 3D view and explains what is where, and how it go next. These maps definitely help show how much the landscape has transformed. This may not be the most explosive volcano, but I love the changeable flows and creeps, mesmerizing. Definitely one of my favorites. 💜🌋🌍🇮🇸✌️😸🍀
Greetings from Murrieta California, wow I love this 3D this is what I've wanted to see all the valley's its flowing to and I accidently ran into this.👍
Always informative & interesting 👍🏻👍🏻
Nice job man it's really good to to see what potential it has. Maybe they can dam it up really good down in that lower valley before you get to the road you could make several small dams so that instead of really just damning up the whole valley or anything you just kind of slow up portions of it but low enough that it won't back up in the higher lake.
WOW MAN!✊ This åmazing footage
Love the view this gives! This is the best overview I've seen so far. Please keep it up!!
Just don't rescue them for a day or two. Get a written apology and make them beg. Fascinating, thanks.
Great coverage!
Wonderful map! Thank you.
Very cool. Thanks a bunch for your informative videos.🤩
Yes, I love the 3D. Can't get enough of the volcano videos . Can you do one that shows how close the city is and maybe an ocean view? The people there are fascinating. I love the accent!
Great perspective on the area. Thanks
Wow..! That was informative. 👍
That’s great gives me a better understanding of the scale thanks
Great video. Very informative. Going later this month. I have always wanted to see lava. Really hope I get to see it from closer safely!
Thank you so much ! This is awesome!!!
Nicely done!! Thank you
Amazing nature. Cheers
Thanks that helps us to really understand what’s happening.
Excellant coverage
It´s very invormative ... great ... thank you so much
