    “Worlds most dangerous volcano” is an inaccurate way to describe Kīlauea. “World’s most active volcano “ would be more accurate. During the Leilani estates eruption 3 years ago nobody was killed, even as the volcano destroyed over 800 homes.

      Not sure of the exact part of the video that you are commenting on.
      However vulvanoes does have other tricks up their sleeves then the slow moving lavas of Hawaii.
      Some places lava flows *fast*.
      But the *real* killer is usually pyroclastic flows that can move as fast as 700 km/h and cross 50+ km of water floating on a cushion of steam from the water being boiled underneath the flow by the insanely hot dust particles making up the flow.
      And even if you survive such flows a vulvano can still fill the air with ashes filled with tiny glass particles that once you breath them in will start to cut up your lungs just as badly as asbestose, potentially killing you before you get away, and even if you manage to get away potentially damaging you for life.
      Vulvanoes can melt glaciers causing flash floods that can wash away entire villages, and these flash floods can contain ashes that then solidifies into essentially sement around anyone caught in the floods so you can't escape, or be dug out.
      And if there's builders included any buildings involved can be crushed till there's nothing bigger then matches left.
      Almost the least of your problems near a vulvano is that they can throw lava far, far up into the sky that can solidify into huge hot builders that can come raining down crushing you, usually they're not much bigger than your head though, so a solid house roof might deflect them.
      Of course any vegetation can be set alight so you'll have to deal with wildfires.
      The rapidly rising gasses filled with particles can create a lot of static electricity, potentially causing lightning strikes, I don't need to tell you that those can be deadly...
      Tiny glass particles inside modern jet engines can of course cause a plane to lose engine power.
      And the gasses released by the vulvano has different properties then the air that the plane was designed to fly through potentially causing a plane to drop literally like a rock instead of gliding, since there's no air to glide through.
      That's... "fun"...
      Lava or magma expanding and contracting the ground can cause earthquakes with all that entails...
      Like seriously, it would probably be faster to list all the ways of killing you that a vulvano *can't* cause...
      If you include indirect potential methods included I really can't think of any in a hurry...
      I mean, the heat could even trigger stored ammunition potentially shooting people for goodness sake, not to mention being stabbed by a branche in a flood, so even death by piercing damage is within it's repertoire...
      I mean, I guess I haven't heard of a vulvano ever killing anyone with radiation poisoning yet...
      Although I can imagine situations where that could be achieved...
      Yes, I've spent a *lot* of time thinking about possible ways to be killed by a vulvano...
      (Icelandic citizen living abroad, but still with family in the country)
      As for the dangers of lava itself, you are aware of how 7 million km in Russia in essence is all basalt rocks left after a single gigantic vulvanic eruption that almost killed all life on this planet?
      That's 4 million km^3 of basalt left by a single vulvanic event.
      In such a situation I really don't think that there would be anywhere left *without* lava for you to flee too...
      (A similar but much smaller scale event on Iceland in 1784 caused the French revolution by causing a huge famine resulting in unrest, killing a estimated 1/4th of the population of Iceland, as well as a estimated 23 000 British people killed by poisoning and another 8 000 Brits by climatic effects, about 1/6th of the population of Egypt, a unknown but large number of deaths in the Sahel region of Africa, 920 000 people in Japan, large but unknown numbers elsewhere in Europe (the poisonous cloud drifted in over Denmark-Norway, Bohemia and a number of other countries).
      If you include the indirect deaths caused by the political outfalls of the vulvano then you can include all of the French wars in that equation too...
      So many millions there...
      I short, vulvanoes are bloodying *terrifying*.
      And I'm glad that I'm living a long, long distance away from the closest one, where I'll have a pretty good chance of surviving even some of the big ones if they where to occur...
      Although like I said, vulvanoes has the potential of killing almost all the life of a planet, so nowhere is *truly* safe...
      Of course, like I said, the vulvanoes on Hawaii is relatively safe by vulvanic standards, or have been, so far...

      Im Lithuanian, Lithuania was once tge biggest paganistic empire in europe. To this day they are roman catholic but we can see the uses of herbs and wooden sculptures really show its pagan influence over the country.

Green Lake, one of the most 'magical' places I've ever seen, gone. That lady in the beginning, on the bike crossing the lava, where she lives used to be the most stunning natural hot pools along the coast. And Pohoiki Bay, where the boat ramp was, was an epic surf break-- all along that coast. All gone. Also, one thing the story missed-- yes, many Hawaiian families live there not just because the land is cheap, but because they were intentionally displaced from the wealthier islands in the 60's and 70's to make room for tourism. And lastly, as one who just lived through the La Soufrière volcano eruption on St. Vincent and the Grenadines, this past April-- the lava may replenish the soil, but it also loads it with tons of heavy metals that are never studied as to their long term health impacts from consuming the produce...

    What most people don’t realize is that Kilauea has been “erupting” daily for over 30 years. Only thing is that the lava most often flows away from populated areas. Only when the lava shifts direction or a new lava vent opens up near homes does it make the news. However again, the Volcano, Kilauea has been erupting daily for decades.

    I personally have absolutely no issue with people choosing to live the “danger zone” of volcanoes, tornadoes, earthquakes, landslides, floods, etc.! My issue comes in the money that is taken via community, state, national & international sources in the name of rebuilding homes in that same area.
    Another great example are all the homes and farms that were knowingly built and expanded right on top of the Mississippi River flood plains. Or when homes and businesses are destroyed, rebuilt but nothing is changed, improved or updated to lower the damage and risk.
    It’s one thing to have really random areas flood or have hurricanes. Homes are damaged, fine, ask fema and every similar agency for all the help you need. But there needs to be a limit. When the Mississippi flooded really badly in the 90’s, so many homes had been destroyed before and rebuilt right on the exact same place. After the first disaster, if you’re in a disaster prone area, I have issue with continually rebuilding a home that’s just gonna be destroyed in the next decade.

    • @ajsoltani
      @ajsoltani 2 роки тому +3

      I think if people choose to live somewhere, and are paying taxes, then the government should offer basic infrastructure and services to support those people. Things like roads, water treatment, and electricity. Those can and should be rebuilt. If people actively choose to live there (in a place they know will likely be destroyed again), then they should cover the costs of rebuilding their homes.
      But I do notice a theme in this video that I’ve seen in other places. Some people are moving or living in that area because it’s cheaper and they can’t afford to live in safer areas. You see it in slums overseas. People build houses in places that are at high risk of natural disaster because there aren’t any other suitable options they can afford. So that needs to be addressed in Hawaii, in America, and across the world. Otherwise people will continue to move to high risk regions out of necessity.
      And for those of you who are saying there are natural disaster risks everywhere, yes it’s true. However, in California where they have earthquakes, they require large structures to be built with earthquake-resistant technology to keep them from collapsing. In Florida, areas at high risk of flooding have building restrictions, and if you do manage to get a permit, your structure has to be raised off the ground and meet stringent building codes. In the midwest, where they can’t stop tornadoes, they build storm shelters where people can stay while the tornadoes are ripping through the community. Since there is no lava-proofing technology, it’s fair to ask that people stop putting themselves in danger and expecting the government to pay for their losses. Especially for those people who choose to live there. If there was a lava-proof building material, the government would be paying for all those houses to be equipped with it. But there’s not, so for people who have a choice, they should pay for the consequences of their decisions. The Hawaiian government is literally buying land to keep people from living there. So they are trying to mitigate the damage.

    As a emergency disaster communicator here in Hawaii, a volcano is probably the least of our worries. People must realize that every island here in Hawaii was formed by volcanoes as each moved over the earth’s volcanic hotspot.
    There is truly a spirit of the land, the culture and the people of Hawaii that residents here come to respect. As a follower of Buddhism, the Hawaiian spirit many believe in compliments the religious beliefs of the people of Hawaii and the Hawaiian people themselves. I would call that, having your own roots in the soil. Many people don’t feel that until they’ve had an opportunity to simply hike around a volcano and witness the shear power of the planet we live on. I’ve never heard of anyone in Hawaii dying from a lava flow, only the spiritual respect of life a lava flow brings to each island in Hawaii and it’s people. Simply put, I believe…

Mt Rainer is magnitudes of order more likely to erupt and its lahar flows could reach several cities around Seattle.

    Kilauea dangerous? Not really. Kilauea eruptions aren't explosive in nature, unlike Mt. St. Helens in Washington, which blew off the top 1/3 of the mountain when it erupted in 1980. Mt. Rainier in Washington is by far the most dangerous volcano in the US because it's geologically unstable if it explodes you can write off Seattle and the surrounding area.

    You also accept that Pele is just doing her thing, it's her land and we're guests in her backyard. From personal experience I would choose lava flow over wildfire, flood and tornado areas. When you're in touch with people who live with the land it gives you a different perspective and appreciation for all that you have.
    We've been actually thinking about moving back in the next few years when we finished what we need to finish on the mainland. It's hard to understand for some people why some still choose to live there, you would have to experience to understand...
