- The Caribbean island of St Vincent has been rocked by a huge explosion, as the La Soufriere volcano fired a huge plume of ash and hot gas into the skies. (Subscribe: bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
Officials said it was "destroying everything in its path", amid fears for the safety of some residents who have refused to obey orders to evacuate.
The series of volcanic explosions over the last few days have disrupted food and fresh water supplies, wiping out forests and farmland. From St Vincent, Kenton Chance reports.

My dads side of the family is from St.vincent 🇻🇨 I loved seeing that the people there can still have a good laugh even in tough times, which from my experience, definitely represents the spirit of St.vincent.
Some did seem care free 😏😏😏, Like Jack Sparrow in the movie " The pirates of the Caribbean's ". and its sequels.
Our people are low key one of the toughest in the Caribbean family, I really want to come over and help support and clean up. My relatives are based in Sandy Bay, Fancy, Harmony Halls and Layou, I’ll pray for your family as well as we are ‘all family’ 🇻🇨
One thing we're gonna do is laugh...
Any Whitaker's. Cousin?
How do we help?
You can't just tell Super Cat what to do. Super Cat will do what he wants.
He two bottles of liquor got him love it
😂😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
he on that strong rum...aawo
Maybe he was too pissed to be bothered.
Lol 🤣
I can only imagine what my Caribbean neighbours are going through. I live in Barbados and i never imagined that so much ash would come our way. After 10 on Saturday morning it felt like night. I pray that this will end soon but mother nature has the last say. Keep strong St Vincent we all are with you in this!!
It is not just ash on Barbados that concerns people. Krakatoa exploded destroying its island causing a Tsunami to wipe out surrounding communities. If that happens in the Caribbean it will devastate as far away as Huston, Texas.
@@SMunro yes and even if that doesn't happen it's still could be really devastating because when they start spewing rocks some of them can easily be the size of refrigerators and when they are flying at people like projectiles it is quite grisly .
How many inches are on d'ground, today??
Keep in mind the government is willing to let folks die on the island if they don't get the shot. That should make you super suspicious about all governments, and the shot, but I'm sure most people won't care.
Thank you my sister and you be safe
I love hearing the way the people of St. Vincent talk. It’s so melodic.
right 😊
They kinda sound so jamaicanish to me

Most have evacuated safely. Don't worry, you should try to call her.
The two dudes at 3:05 ... they should have their own show . They seem to be interesting people .
Seriously that's got to be very scary for everybody there . i hope for everybody to be safe .

Lord the women with babies and the elderly who are not able to help themselves 🙏🏾 please give them protection ❤️
Nikita, I pray they get the help they need too ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Amen 🙏!
Nope not unless they get vax first-saw it on a different broadcast. Unless they get vax they will not be evacuated .
Yea but Super Cat does what he wants
Asl?😅
May God protect you all people of Saint Vincent.

There is no god
(Your prayer does nothing)
St. Vicents turn: "I choose errupt"
(Volcano erupts for the second time does 3,000 damage)
Yes!
Come on down...we rob you!
If there's no God, and you're not a believer, why waste your time pulling her down? What are you going to proffer as a replacement? Realistically nothing. It's really sad that you feel the need to belittle anyone for their beliefs.
Lucia, I'll be praying for them too ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Sending prayers to the people of St.Vincent 🙏🏻 I hope they are all able to get out safely.

Volcano erupting and Super Cat just drinking his rum....bwoy...
... and White Rum at that... That thing is so potent, it doubles as fuel for his get-away boat.
"wrapped my my Marijuana" my man, priorities set straight.🤣🤣
Lol it's hard to leave their crop behind after looking after them for months on the volcano but your safety comes first. Live to plant another day. I am here in st Vincent and I understand what they mean.
@@lasagnasardine9010 respect 🙏 stay safe!
Druggies are the dumbest!!
@@Jen-qd7sc I guess if you had thousands of dollars worth of marijuana plants that you have been tending on a volcano for months you will be just like this guy. Some of us wouldnt be as upbeat and positive after loosing your whole livelihood and had a volcano erupt right outside your shanty. Give him a break please.
Just casually getting interviewed about a volcano and dropping in that your the local plug at the same time 🤣🤣
Thank you guys for the love 🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨💙💛💚
Prayers for such a beutiful place yall will bounce back just stay safe

Shout out from U.S I hope y'all get the place clean up fast and nice back and yall stay safe
@T Scott oh shut up
@T Scott u chose to have no life
Hawaii always have Volcanoes, once it settles you will see the benefits, the ash is a great fertilzer filled with minerals and will make the land lush after a few rain storms. The Volcanoes itself produces all sorts of resources, gold, diamonds, zinc and more.
David I find your comment, highly informative. Inspite of its inherent devastation, volcanoes are pregnant WITH precious gems
Evacuate your life matters more than stuff , best wishes to you all from uk
Big shout out to "Small Man" for risking his health and well being to experience the raw power of mother nature first hand and report it back to us.
😂😂
Not just some of the coconut trees 'all a dem".
🤣😂
Legend indeed
“Small Man”... “Super Cat” and the Marijuana guys!
Oh my god, I miss the Caribbean 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Soon come fam!
😂🍻
In another video a lady said she stayed back to experience the volcano.
Yep I’ve lived in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and I just can’t stop smiling even with the devastation listening to the people
@@ABLE2OVER If you don’t like black people why are you wasting your time watching any videos about us in here.
Much less replying to a black persons comment which wasn’t to you ... doesn’t know know, doesn’t want to know you and loses absolutely nothing by not knowing you.
Idiot.
@@ABLE2OVER How can someone who came in my comment saying “Please go back” trying to be racially disrespectful, tell the person who’s comment they wrote on to grow up?
Do you have any idea how dumb you sound?
You really are dumb.
Petty and weak.
Jamaica is with St Vincent people to the end
Big up Vince people dem, gwaan stay strong families
Love and prayers from Trinidad! Will send aid soon!
Well done Kenton first proper report 👏 👍 👌
The islands are beautiful
thank you
Not anymore💀
I couldn't leave without me marihuanas either, I understand what the man is feeling, I just love them.
They stay yes possitif my god 💪🙏👌👍 but at our opinion marihuana he will find just pack & safe your skin ✌️
That’s just pathetic.
That's funny the marihuanas are very important but they have to have the people to grow them I know he was being serious but that was funny
Just another plant you can do without.
Drugged and dumb.
Seems like awesome people...may God Bless Them and Protect Them 🙏
This seems like a place to visit after things get cleaned up.
Right they seem so fun and enjoying life no matter what happens 🙏 i hope they stay safe
We will get through though this,svg is a great place please come visit us..

They have to have to the coolest sounding English accents I’ve ever heard.
Stay prayed up,and my prayers are with all my Vincy friends,neighbors and my church families 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽💜💜💜
Whats the anchor doing outside whilst reporting about the Caribbean when he’s in NEW YORK?
It's called DRAMA. MSM is all about drama.
and no mask of course !!
@@josephrodelli426 Fake flipping news MSM
God bless! Stay safe prayer's to the resident of St V. And nearby island from Guyana 🙏
They're going to have awesome gardens. Their pot will grow ten feet tall packed with bud. The ash will replenish the soils with years and tears of enriched soil. But fu....., be safe.
I love a silver lining optimist thank you
The ash was blown as far as Barbados 🇧🇧 and turned the island from day to night.
Prayers to all the people of St. Vincent, special shout out to Super Cat and the Marijuana fellows 🙏💖
A similar ash rain happened a couple of years ago in my country. This is very unfortunate & my prayers for the locals.
Air quality has to be awful. Prayers to everyone there. Stay safe💜
Rough times but hoping that the Caribbean island will put hands together and help this island, the best idea is to keep a cricket fun raison to help all those st Vincent people that is in need.
Pray for my family 🇻🇨🇻🇨
I pray God will keep your family safe and give you all a peace that knows no fear. I pray for miracles for your family. I pray that God will help your family in Jesus Christ's name.

Unfortunate circumstances but the most entertaining news coverage I’ve seen!
I pray that God will keep all the residents of the island safe. Jesus, have mercy.
Great job on the reporting Kenton. Very professional. You represented Vincy well.
Those people look like they would be a lot of fun to hang out with :)

Thank you dear, much appreciated.
@@oneone-wx1yw You're a horrible human.
Praying for those affected by this, may they be healthy and safe from all harm. Praying for the vegetation of the island that it be spared harm as well.
Actually, the area the Volcano is located is known for marijuana plantations. St. vincent produces one of the best marijuana on the international market.
Researchers say it's because the volcanic soils are rich in macronutrients, especially sulfur.
Everyone on the island is aware.. I think the farmers would appreciate discretion.
@@nglza 💯
my grandma has grapefruit trees, a pomegranate tree, and a tree that is crossed with lime and lemon that grow on volcanic soil. They taste amazing.
Dun know
When Ras say even im 3leg dog bin ah run...🤣🤣🤣🤣..it's the first genuine laugh I get since this ting start...
Whole interview on FB..
God help all on the island of St. Vincent. May God provide for all their needs.
I can see Small Man going viral
and Super cat
Praying for our Caribbean families in St Vincent. Yahweh remember your people 🙏🏾
Oh my God I love the accent of the island people ,I hope someone can help them.
I love these people! Absolute Gems! 😂 I pray every one is safe and they get back home to their homes safe and sound ❤️
I worked there years ago, and I loved it. So friendly people!!
St.vincent provides much of the food for Barbados and other islands. ..and marijuana yes indeed...they will try to protect the crops..be safe tho.💪🏽👊🏾💚
A lot of the weed is right where that volcano is, I’ve seen it up there plus I’ve never seen so much fruit and vegetation growing everywhere!? 🇻🇨
The volcanic ash makes the soil better for plants/farming. It's a good thing for the Island in The long term.
There is no protecting the crops in the north. The farms have been devastated. It would be reckless like the rasta man who stay to protect his weed. The ash is not immediately beneficial to the crops, but will be in the long run. We will get through this stronger.🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨
I think there is still concern that this could get quite a bit worse. Hopefully they can persuade those stubborn folk to evacuate too.
They’re not allowed to leave because they’ve not been vaccinated

Sending prayers and love to all those affected. Such a beautiful island, with beautiful people. Stay safe everyone, and keep helping each other. Things can replace. People are precious.
The vegetation will be awesome next year!
That's a fact!
How so?
@@Xscape128 ash contains minerals, at first it is not really that great for plants, they get covered and dont get the proper amount of sunlight.after it breaks down into the soil though it's is very beneficial. Mount st Helen's for example, after it blew the next years crop of green apples were awesome.
@@andrewlake7992 that's very good to hear. Prayers Prayers
Peace & Safety to the good folk affected by this.

Ok
It must be a terrifying experience. My heart goes out to all residents of St. Vincent and nearby islands also impacted by the eruption. Why do bad things happen to honest hard-working people?
I know right 👍.
Love their Accent
My black Caribbean brothers and sisters know you have your black brothers and sisters support here in the states. Love you guys.
Volcano: No lives matter.
Get out folks!
Just remember Caribbean isn’t all black, it’s massively diverse, I’m mixed personally but I know a ton of Asian, Indian and white people who grew up in the Caribbean they entire lives
Typical black person, only sending prayers to their own kind. Plenty of other ethnicities there...
This comment is why people think Americans are stupid
@@kuchikopi4631 Dont generalise please saying this as a half black half indian person in the Caribbean
Super Cat you're Awesome💜 my prayers for you and everyone there🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💜
Awesome loves these people
I experienced this in the Philippines when Mt. Taal erupted last January 2020. Many towns and cities where covered by ash. Thousand of Horses left in the main volcano island. Few survived.
never heard about it ,but searched and WOW, thx for sharing.
Lord God,. please be with the folks in the Caribbean islands in this desperate hour. 🙏🙏🙏
May God bless and keep the people of St. Vincent. Trini love and tangible support is on the way, God willing.
I haven’t heard much about Barbados or the people who live there.
I know now that those are my type of people.
I would love to visit someday.
Stay strong and you will prosper that is your land and it will be so much more fertile now that this ash has gifted you.
One of the most dangerous volcano is Yellowstone National Park in the USA. If it ever erupt, according to Geologist, it could spell calamity for much of the USA. My island of Dominica 🇩🇲 is also a danger zone with the most concentrated volcanoes in the world. Praying for the people of St. Vincent 🙏🏾🙏🏾
2:00 Jack Sparrow is that you???🤔🤔🤔🤣🤣🤣
More seriously hope you will all be safe. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Really great report by Kenton, thank you!
Why is he outside in New York in the rain? Someone above him doesn't like that reporter lol
Good report.
I love my black ppl everywhere ❤️ God, bless them with safety and recovery in Jesus name amen 🙏🏾.
Love the double standard of society. If I wrote "I love my white ppl everywhere" I would be called a racist. Incredible
There’s about to be a fucking war in these comments

@Cakey
Thank a million for the love because a lot of us black people are going through unimaginable circumstances all around the world .
Sometimes I even think at times perhaps!! blacks are programmed to hate each other sorry for being honest about my thoughts
We need a lot of love. We need to love ourselves

My fellow Vinci, keep Trusting in God regardless of the situation. God says He will never leave us nor forsake us. Continue to Repent and God will see you through. Continue to be resilient as you help each other.
Much love and Blessings as you ride out the storm. Xxxxxxxxxxxx🙂
St. Vincent Strong! God be with my people.
The problem is bigger than just St.Vincent. It's also the fact that ash from this same volcano is traveling to all the various islands around and that includes Barbados which is much further out in the Atlantic ocean than most of any Caribbean islands. They getting lots of ash raining down there too which is also hitting many of the other neighboring islands.
Good luck.
These two brothers from chatuae need God repent my chatuae brothers
If anyone knows the island's nature boys, they are very comfortable at sea. Some may think Super Cat is being cavalier, but a few feet down to the shore he has a runner, weeded (gas-ed) and ready to go. I sense he's probably dancing through the Grenadines as we speak.
