The one thing from prehistoric times that will always be with us. Hang in there Mr. Cylocant. Your the fish from the Triassic period still around as well.
When you look at how fast the lava can flow. It does make you wonder if the Earths surface is really billions of years old. Could not rapid sea floor spreading and huge volcanic eruptions released the earth from Glacial Ice 12,000 years ago or so?
@@superchuck3259 This is the problem with our abilities to judge scale. Even our Pale Blue Dot of a planet is actually so big it is difficult to wrap one's mind around. The Siberian Traps erupted roughly four million cubic kilometers(!) that covers seven million km^2 over a two million year period, but Europe alone has a surface area of ten million square kilometers! The Mid-Atlantic rift, which is the geological feature driving this eruption, is only spreading at a rate of 2.5 centimeters a year. That's a speed that makes the pace of glaciers seem speedy!
@@kerriadereth The Great Flood is real. The exact date, hard to say, 20k or 120k years, not sure, but I just know that rapid sea floor spreading is possible and likely the cause. If the Atlantic was created quickly, the hot lava hitting sea water would cause huge flooding and tidal waves. Also oceans filled with bubbles of steam would make the water take up more volume, causing flooding, plus tsunamis from earth quakes. Think about this, normally faults don't move much, but during earth quakes, they can rip and move a lot. The glaciers could have formed from the rain and snowfall from the warm oceans from the hot sea floor cooling. If you can't imagine this, then you are missing the thought experiments that are critical to understanding how things work. Enjoy the theories, but realize that 2.5cm per year, is just the current rate. There are rivers that erode 2.5cm of shore a year, then suddenly there is a 1,000 year flood and the shoreline moves 100s of feet!
@@superchuck3259 There have been a number of major floods in various regions of the world. Most relate to the end of glacial ages where trapped melt lakes from retreating ice sheets (kilometres high) suddenly break free. Think of lakes the size of the US Great lakes and larger. The English channel was created by one of these. The Grand Canyon another. Probably the straits of Gibraltar were opened up by another. The Atlantic was not created quickly, as the rocks have measurable magnetic signatures, which flip around every 100,000 years or so it is possible to follow the spreading "conveyor" like pattern. This was discovered around the 1960's (I might be off a touch on the date), but it is well recognised scientific fact. Hot lava hitting sea water doesn't create flooding. It creates pillow lavas (think squeezed toothpaste) if underwater, or new land if coming from a land based source and there is enough of it (Hi Hawaii). The amount of steam and bubbles is going to be very localised and the ocean is a big place. These types of eruptions leave behind deposits that geologists can map and also come from volcanoes that have a different type of lava (more silica rich - sticky) than from spreading ridges on plate boundaries, which tend to be less silica rich and flow more (less sticky) Heat transfer and warming of water certainly does happen and the general ocean currents follow certain patterns, which certainly affects our weather. To create a tsunami, you need a very rapid displacement of water such as a massive earthquake with an uplifted, or down faulted component like off Indonesia, or off the coast of Japan in recent times. Or from a very violent volcanic eruption, such as Krakatoa (Indonesia), or Santorini (Greek Islands) where the islands basically blow themselves apart. The Atlantic spreading ridges do not have the explosive type of volcanoes to support your hypothesis. I have excluded foreign objects from Space in this, as your comment was about Volcanoes & EQ's, which are more common in any case. The planet and sun also go through different phases in terms of distance to each other, solar output, oxygen output (global cooling if too much CO2 is captured & released as O2) and the like as they move through the Milky Way, which has affected the planet with ice ages. So in summary, the land didn't suddenly appear ~12,000yrs ago along with a great flood from volcanoes & glaciers as there are remains of people living in many parts of the world for far longer than that. There is a massive of evidence that supports the planet being very old indeed.
It's impressive how much the river holds. Thanks for being a steady hand and not zooming in and out too much, a lot of the folks putting up video are really impatient.
Good catch, certainly a sight to behold! The perched lava-channel is also draining back from it's course. The advice here is: "Don't feel tired and doze-off in front of the tinkling black lava, you may be in for a surprise...
Excellent video of the event. It took approximately 4 minutes for that breach to fill that whole new area during your video. Stunning. Thanks for sharing!
And then they grow up and become terrifying like that betelgeuse fella. No offense betelgeuse, I mean let's face it, you are a bit moldy and green behind the ears.
@@fairwitness7473 the medicine man fixed me up. He hooked me up with the bug that loves to eat it. I cant help but grow that green stuff. It's in my genes. Mom's side. Mold is good for my infections in my nether regions. No offense. But I highly doubt youd understand. It itches so bad!!! 👿
It's amazing how high the lava burst into the air and comes spilling out. Then stops a bit and starts all over again. Great footage! Stay safe! ❤️🌋❤️🌎❤️
Well done at the right moment, thank you for sharing it: nice way to understand how is growing a compound lava field impressive sound also from the lava fountain!
Awesome. The speed of the lava is quite something. This video really shows the extraordinary lava 'canal' built up by the vent and the jet-engine sound of the eruption. Brilliant.
I believe it's going to go over the walls built. The sound of that volcano is terrifying 😱 Great video, thank you, I never see one for real where I am. Northeast USA
How utterly fascinating is this This universe is such a phenomenon. God is such an awesome God and things like this remind me just how awesome He truly is.
5:30 you can see by looking at the large, long stream that it has reversed direction. Instead of a left-to-right direction, it is now right-to-left. I.e., the great big long lava stream has reversed direction, and is what is feeding the overflow. Interesting stuff! This little valley will very soon be all filled in by this lava reservoir
I thought for a while that it was sped up the lava was moving so fast. But the wind noise is fine and the eruptive event at the end was clearly not speed up and the flow kept on going at the same rate.
I was thinking that in addition to building a dam to stem the flow in an undesired direction they could last a path in the existing lava that would redirect the river by creating an easier place for it to flow. Obviously they can't go out there and place charges but they could use artillery
The damming of the flow to merridaler is causing it to "stack" .. creating the opportunity for lava tubes to form like they do in places like hawaii.. Might have to change the name Iceland to Coldhawaii .. Europe is gonna love this.
Fantastic footage! Good videography too! I love how you stay on one subject and allow the pictures to tell the story rather than narrating. Nice work! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼♥️♥️♥️♥️
It shows how much lava was in that river
bob: a foothill in the background
RIP Bob
Nice video...Thumbs downs are for clowns.
Talk about being in the right place at the right time. This is some of the best footage from the entire eruption.
Thankyou for showing us this very good view of how the lava is spreading now.
Thank you for the most amazing footage. Watching from South Africa 🇿🇦.
One of the best vídeos so far, thanks!
Great video 👍
Who would have thought rock could be a liquid! Excellent coverage, natural sound, no music. Thank you very much.
That was absolutely amazing. I am thrilled you caught it and let us watch it...and I could have watched it for three times as long!
Thank you for posting!!! Amazing timing of the breach and new direction of the massive lava flow!!! Very well done!
So cool, thanks for sharing.
I love these videos of lava that people have been posting! It's so fascinating to me. I wish I could be in Iceland right now.
Me too!

Increíbles imágenes saludos desde México
Fantastic, thank you so much for this video!
How considerate that the flow would breach to give a better view 🌋
Wow!!! Great vid
Oh! That is just SO COOL!! ❤️ 🌋🔥🇸🇪❤️🇮🇸
If you pay close attention you can see some of the lava in the main channel moving upstream due to the vacuum created by the new outflow.
THAT is an INCREDIBLE breach...omg 😳
Excellent video of the event. It took approximately 4 minutes for that breach to fill that whole new area during your video. Stunning. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for posting! Best we can get without being there :)
Magnificent footage, Dan. Thank you.
And it's startling to realize that small mound to the left is the original eruption.
Awwww. I remember this when this was just a weee little baby. They sure do grow fast, dont they?
They are cute when they are small.
And then they grow up and become terrifying like that betelgeuse fella. No offense betelgeuse, I mean let's face it, you are a bit moldy and green behind the ears.
They blow up so fast.

It itches so bad!!! 👿
It's amazing how high the lava burst into the air and comes spilling out. Then stops a bit and starts all over again. Great footage! Stay safe! ❤️🌋❤️🌎❤️
Wow, the lava is so fluid
Low silica content in this basalt. High-silica content lavas are much more viscous.
Amazing video and the sound, Wow! Thanks this video was awesome!
Well done at the right moment, thank you for sharing it: nice way to understand how is growing a compound lava field impressive sound also from the lava fountain!
For six minutes I was mesmerized by the lava flow, only to be awakened by the amazing eruption at the six-minute mark.
Supremely excellent video!!! That's what we want to see!!!!
melted star stuff from millions and millions of years ago!
Wow Dan! Amazing capture, right spot, right time. Thank you so much for posting. Keep safe and well.🏴😘
Thanks. This is great. Looks like the lava is a little more viscous than it has been.
We mentioned your excellent capture on Dr Fox’s group. Well done.
It’s amazing just how high that lava levee has grown to and how the lava flows get constantly redirected.
Cool, thank you for posting :)))
Perfect reporting, no cruddy muzak, just elemental noises that we can just observe in awe. Got any rings you need to destroy?👍👍👍
Great video pics of this. I presume the lava is basic (basaltic) and that is why it is so fluid.
Best video I've seen in days!
Nature is both cruel and beautiful. Thank you for sharing!
wow thank you for posting, would love to see this live
That breach has a large portion of the river moving back upstream to go out.
Awesome. The speed of the lava is quite something. This video really shows the extraordinary lava 'canal' built up by the vent and the jet-engine sound of the eruption. Brilliant.
I believe it's going to go over the walls built.
The sound of that volcano is terrifying 😱
Great video, thank you, I never see one for real where I am.
Northeast USA
Amazing footage, I appreciate that you made a longer video, I could watch this for hours
Mesmerising. Great capture. Can't help thinking will it go over that 'breaker'.
Amazing! Thank you for posting this!
Ah not good, thank you for the update. A lot of lava!
Absolutely fascinating! Thank you for sharing.
Wow the noise when it erupts was awesome .Other videos I've watched haven't captured the sound as this has.
I enjoy those Steady vid of the Lava flow ... verry much !!! Showing the Behavior of the Liquid Lava !!!
Mesmerizing and beautiful!
Magnifique !
Wow. Great catch!
Great views, worth a new subscriber!
Looks like the man made barricades aren't going to work as the engineers had planned maybe 🤔
Great capture. 👍
I was thinking the same thing. This might start filling that section of the Lava Field again.
@@timmordragon1847 isn't that good? This is near the fissure itself and not heading towards the road
@@ferrous719 I'm not really sure. I was looking at the 3D Model.
Yup, it did flow straight towards the Barrier today. They are planning to raise it to 8 Meters.
It's interesting Outsiders always know more than we do ... 🙈
To me I was shocked at how fast the lava is moving ! The temperature of this liquid rock must be unbelievably hot!
Best I have seen yet!!!

Amazing! It is so interesting, see where it flows next! Building the land mass!! Then at the end, a fountain of lava!!! HAHHAHAHAA ❤❤❤
Fissures to the rear are flowing beautifully!
Very impressive, looks like some kind of hot dessert! 😋
hot orange lava fondue
Creme brûlée
Lava cake :)
Fascinating - mesmerizing
Simply astonishing!
Terrifying and beautiful at the same time.
Amazing video.
Is it true Icelanders have fifty names for different kinds of lava? The variety of textures is amazing.
Fifty name for snow ?
I thought for a while that it was sped up the lava was moving so fast. But the wind noise is fine and the eruptive event at the end was clearly not speed up and the flow kept on going at the same rate.
at the 6:00 mark you finally get a sense of scale. Wow!
Beautiful and terrifying.
This lava is really flowing like A A in Hawaii
Pahoehoe in this case.
@@josephastier7421 thx❣️❣️❣️
@@josephastier7421 Is it true that aa got its name because that's what people said as they walked with bare feet on the sharp lava?

Who's bob
@@gendagarneryoutube The original Volcano
Hot Stuff, comin' through!
The lava looks different from what I’ve seen in the last few weeks.
It looks more liquified and faster flowing.
Closer to the vent, so still very hot.
the chemistry hasn't changed that much for 3 - 4 weeks
The same thing looks different based on temperature
It looks more liquose, so I think it just be hotter and thoroughly melted. I think.
This is some very cool video. Wish I could be on site to see this event in person.
I was thinking that in addition to building a dam to stem the flow in an undesired direction they could last a path in the existing lava that would redirect the river by creating an easier place for it to flow. Obviously they can't go out there and place charges but they could use artillery
They tried that in Hawaii in the 40's. Failed miserabley.
look at that mad lad down there.
WOW! THE EYE OF MORDOR! Wish you had kept filming until that new wave of lava came down! Oh well...AWESOME! 💖
So beautiful!!
Amazing, stunning, terrifying.
Yea.
very nice
That lava seems much more liquid than we have seen before....??
good catch!
The damming of the flow to merridaler is causing it to "stack" .. creating the opportunity for lava tubes to form like they do in places like hawaii..
Might have to change the name Iceland to Coldhawaii .. Europe is gonna love this.
This is good news re: the wall down the valley right? It's safe ("safe") for the lava to build up here instead of heading towards the road.
wow. thank you
I was waiting for this to happen. Those streams of lava had built up so far they were looking like a Roman Aqueduct.
Seems a lot more fluid than the earlier lava... wondering if the composition of the lava and it's depth have changed ...🤔
It must be incredibly hot to be so liquid. Thanks for posting.
Wow just amazing
Fascinating
breaking news ;)
Perched lava pools. This reminds me so much of watching Kilauea, even though it is on the other side of the world.
Lava flowing is an amazing sight. RIP little 10m wall built by a Mensa who convinced somebody to fund the speed bump.
it'll take off some of the pressure from the earth walls at the exits to the ocean
