Thank you for actually going out and filming the eruption and sharing your fascination, It is great that your style is so down to earth, no hype, just your own character, humour and photography.
Excellent observations and commentary, 🙏 thank you . Please keep safe distance. One pocket of exploding gas even at the very outside perimeter of this living liquid could possibly ‘interrupt’ your amazing reporting. Best, 🕊🕊🕊
These are wonderful videos. To see a volcano and a lava field grow and change bit by bit - hear little things like rain on lava and see moss smoking and heat waves from the lava, is just so interesting and real life. It's so fun!
I discovered myself as a Volcano addicted hahah thank you for the great videos. From all over the world, we can follow what's happening everyday, very well done.
You're not alone! From it's conception I've been absolutely fascinated and have been coming back everyday! ... well not there there... I'm an armchair spectator 😍😍😍
Loving these hot (literally) reports. Without extensive use of "massive, huge, big etc." but from actual person viewpoint. Cameras can give nice views but this "3D" view of all surrounding area just gives that real connection (no matter how far away we are).
Wow! You’re right… insane. It looks to me like a lot more volume. And thanks for the explaining that the sound was from the rain hitting the lava. Very interesting and informative.
@@andrew2431 They would never allow thousands of people into the area if the whole area could erupt. The east wall is by far the most dangerous now. It is already run over by lava by now ( morning of May 22), and is probably given up by now. The lava is now flowing into Natthagi valley and will probably go on towards the main coastal road..
Since I was a little kid decades ago first reading about volcanoes I learned about the Icelandic/Rift volcanos. This has been an absolute first-rate demonstration of everything I've ever heard or read about them. The life cycle of this one should be required learning in all future geology classes.
It gave them a chance to do a little experiment with fiber optic cable, if it would survive in the ground after the lava has covered it... the testing cable is still active so there is a chance that the real one from Grindavík would survive.
What a good video, loved the walk around the edge and seeing the lava formations as it cools, spectacular close ups. Many thanks, how else would I ever see this sight.
I have had the pleasure of watching this epic event since it"s start, thanks to a group of talented, and rugged individuals, who I give a big ^5 to. Mr Gutn Tog! You have also been at the "front" giving an informative , not unpleasant ,status report. I thank and salute you Sir.
A lot of lava flow out of the Vulcano continuity, earth problem, also in South Italy we have plantyVulcanos actives today… thanks for interesting clips…
i love your voice and pictures are amazing . it’s great to just have the actual sounds instead of music over the top , it allows us to experience it with you . please stay safe .x
Thanks for taking the trouble to climb up the slope above the eastern wall for the view back down over the wall. Great perspective from there on what's happening. Another great video.
Thanks for all the updates man! You are the best one doing it! It’s several times per day. That’s really good. Greetings from the volcanic islands of the Azores, your southernmost neighbours 😋
only 5 minutes between the end of the first eruption and the beginning of the second one. crazy amount of lava wow. Th flow stopped towards the wall, that's cool. The rain helps to cool it. Funny sound.
@@snowmiaow Yes. Literally. Lost 40% of topsoil too. That shocks me because I know Norway / Sweden / Finland had strict cultural and RELIGIOUS taboos against cutting down too many trees. So I'm wondering if the settlers were Danish Vikings (flat country). Trees hold mountains up, hold topsoil in place. In pagan times, cut down too many trees and you'd be hung as an offering to Odin.
My friend - Thanks, so much, for the continuous reporting at the volcano. you are providing a wonderful service in the quality reports and videos. Be safe and thanks again!
Incredible fight between man and nature ! Loving it. It reminds me of the Etna volcano where they used to drop concrete walls to deviate the lave flow. Without forgetting the terrible experience in Vestmannaeyjar, back in the 70's
@@velianlodestone1249 Can't happen. The heat & instability of lava flows are too challenging. They'd need massive & deeply imbedded supports at each end of the bridge... But where to put them? The helicopters & planes cannot fly low over the gaseous intensely hot lava, so a bridge would be over it would be melted before it could be built.
ThNk you. It’s so frighteningly beautiful. Man thinks he’s so clever and along comes Mother Nature and says “ see what I can do?” Amazing. Thank you 🙏🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
The fact that the lava is quite a few metres higher just behind the remains of the wall suggests there is little long term hope, unless the effect is to channel the lava in the other direction towards Meradalir valley instead.
Wow...that was fast! Thank you for your updates. In New Zealand our volcanoes are explosive, and we’ve never seen one that acts like a belching dragon! So we’re loving your footage.
Thank you so much for your filming & comments. Would you please do your camera-movements, if you can, slowlier? it would more interessting to see all details. Gutn Tog!
I didn't smell any special smell when í went there, you would want to keep away from any lowgrounds where gasses collect, which woukd probbably smell if sulfur and the likes
@Mickey Smiths told me some days ago when I asked the same question, that it smells like it does when glass is being blown (it is molten silica...). And there’s a smell to poisonous gas as well, so one cannot be on the side of the wind.
In Hawaii the molten lava like here travelled miles under the surface layer and burst out over land or into the ocean. If the wall is breached and the lava starts down hill I think a molten river will flow out of the lava field and down the valley.
Nice job! Thanks for the close-up tour. I was amazed that you could walk across the earthwork berm. Stay safe out there... I look forward to hearing the results of your experiments.
Thank you for this video. Its very interesting and informative. I'll never will see or learn about it here in Texas. I Love video like this. Please be very careful and stay safe. May God Bless you and everyone in that little city.

Thank you for sharing this amazing event that otherwise we would never experience 🙏
Thank you for doing the best reporting on this volcano erupting and the wall effert to slow the flow of lava..please keep us updated .👍
Thank you for actually going out and filming the eruption and sharing your fascination, It is great that your style is so down to earth, no hype, just your own character, humour and photography.
Dear Gutn Tog, Good Day, many thanks for the best, most comprehensive coverage of the eruption events. Thumbs up! :-)

@@Circlewisewoman01 Thank you so much!
Thank you for your regular reports Gutn tog ....give this man a thumbs up. Good job mate.
Yeah well I appreciate your appreciation and give you thumbs up. Take that.
You just earned another subscription.
you actually go there. Not just leaching off of the webcams.
Good work, thank you from Denmark.
"Reykjavik Grapevine" does reports from right beside the lava field. Well worth a watch. Their recent videos have amazing footage.
@@Mugdorna I am subscribing to them as well. They are my number 1.
But this channel uploads more content on the subject.
So it might be a tie.
Thank you for your filming & comments, Gutn Tog!
Wish you would try a coconut! Love to know how long before it explodes! Please keep being careful.........
You give the absolutely best coverage of this event! Thank You!

This is by far the best angle anyone has taken a video from
You mean the most dangerous one? That dirt wall is totally unsafe at this point. A breakout could happen at any time. Impossible to predict..
@@astrogeo1 the whole area could erupt as anything is possible so the danger factor is quite high regardless

Indeed: the lava got punctured around 5 PM of the 20th and a big flow of rather fluid lava came out that now created that big pool there. Thank you!
A lot of lava flow out of the Vulcano continuity, earth problem, also in South Italy we have plantyVulcanos actives today… thanks for interesting clips…

I enjoy watching your updates of the volcano. Greetings from Cape Town, South Africa
Ur so lucky to live in S. Africa that place is in my dreams!
Greetings from Michigan
Amazing to see. Those glowing cracks towards the end of the video especially.
My 3 kids are enjoying your volcano updates almost as much as me! Thanks so much! 🤩
Good camera work.
Thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for taking the trouble to climb up the slope above the eastern wall for the view back down over the wall. Great perspective from there on what's happening. Another great video.
Rain on the lava sounds very interesting. Thank you for your videos.
The glowing red eyes staring from the lava darkness, seem to say we're not done yet!

Thank you for all the great work you're doing for all of the volcano watchers around the world. Please keep it up ~ Canada.
Sure are a lot of trees in your country. Great video. Thanks muchly.
They cut 97% of them down as soon as they got there.
@@snowmiaow Yes. Literally.
Lost 40% of topsoil too. That shocks me because I know Norway / Sweden / Finland had strict cultural and RELIGIOUS taboos against cutting down too many trees. So I'm wondering if the settlers were Danish Vikings (flat country).
Trees hold mountains up, hold topsoil in place.
In pagan times, cut down too many trees and you'd be hung as an offering to Odin.
When humans first arrived almost 40% of Iceland was covered with massive Birch forests
@@veramae4098 We need that rule still.
When l see the barren terrain l want to go there and make it bloom again.
Thankyou for showing us.
My friend - Thanks, so much, for the continuous reporting at the volcano. you are providing a wonderful service in the quality reports and videos. Be safe and thanks again!
It's ok Iceland...our wall in America didn't work either
At least they got one built
😆
thanks for the Vidja very nice
That sizzling in the background sounded like you were cooking bacon the entire time, lol 🥓😋
Damn it! Now I'm craving bacon! 😂🤣😂
I'm hearing a helicopter.
Love that I’m learning so much about the nature of volcanos.
Very much enjoying your video reports, please keep them Coming.

@dmaa - do you have a good link to the problems that happened in the 1970's? tyvm
The big dragons bath is overflowing. They forgot to switch off the taps.
😃😀yep demon forgot close the tap
Not even the rain stops you!! I am truly grateful for all you do for us. Thank you a million times ❤🙏🙏🙏👍
Fantastic!
Hi. My name is Lavender, and I'm a volcaholic. Thank-you, GutnTog, for feeding my addiction. Great videos.
Best, most dilligent volcano reporter in Iceland right now. Gutn Tog!
You are The Man on The Scene! tyvm!
We can hear it sizzling in th rain.
So weird how it filled up the dam like that, i wonder what else they can do now? Thanks Gutntog , You're our ' man in the field' :-)
I'm still hoping for bridge over a lava canal
@@velianlodestone1249 Can't happen. The heat & instability of lava flows are too challenging. They'd need massive & deeply imbedded supports at each end of the bridge... But where to put them?

Good work !👍👍👍 Nature is not easy to get stopped!!
Thanks for your updates. You clear up things for us observers from far away.
Excellent coverage of the situation.
Your comments bring us so much knowledge. People look so Tiny !!! Compare with all Volcanoes and Mountaines around!🌋
Awesome!👍👍👍🇮🇸💙🇳🇴
And Thank You for sharing👌
Thanks for the excellent coverage!!
The volcano, although a lady, is becoming a formable beast. Further, your videography is the best. Thank you.
straight thinking tells me that walk won’t hold back this movement and scale of lava .. it’s massive .
I think you're right. This just seems to be an overwhelming job. But the engineers are giving it 100%.
If there was somwhere to divert it...its just a juggernaut!
We are living on a giant bomb
It didn't. The molten rock is now flowing freely into the next valley, and closer to the road. Check it out. ua-cam.com/video/NG2cDRvRsAo/v-deo.html
Am just thinking of all the crystals that could be forming within these lava spills.
Thank you for continuing to give us the best volcano coverage! Up close and personal, please be careful!
I'd love to hear a 10 hour rain recording on that lava. It's magnificent!
The fact that the lava is quite a few metres higher just behind the remains of the wall suggests there is little long term hope, unless the effect is to channel the lava in the other direction towards Meradalir valley instead.
Wow...that was fast! Thank you for your updates. In New Zealand our volcanoes are explosive, and we’ve never seen one that acts like a belching dragon! So we’re loving your footage.
thanks for your excellent reporting, I enjoy you video updates every day
magnificent !
Thank you for sharing. This is so fascinating. Just a reminder that the world is ever changing.
Always watching you from south Africa.. Thank you
What everybody else said: Thx for keeping us in the loop!
Amazing videos and thank you for your time. I visited the volcano twice and understand how much time and effort it takes just to get there.
Trying to stop a lava flow. SMH.
Wow, the stunning awesome power of Mother Earth, totally relentless.
that sound is amazing
Real good angle to see everything at the start
Wow, thanks for the update!
Subscribed!
BE SAFE OUT THERE.
Nice bit of topsoil there.
Have fun with your experiments and thank you so much for your awesome footage.😊👍💖 The rain hitting the lava rocks sounds pretty cool 😎❤️
Thanks for the close look. Stay safe.
Rain on lava...not a sound I had ever heard before. Fascinating!
Thank you so much for your filming & comments. Would you please do your camera-movements, if you can, slowlier? it would more interessting to see all details. Gutn Tog!
Thanks for all your hard work...simply AMAZING (and terrifying) images...
This is the best video about tath volcan erption!!!👏👏👏
Absolutely spectacular.
I just found this going on. Thanks for your reporting👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😉
Very cool ! Been watching all your posts. Can’t imagine how it smells though?

In Hawaii the molten lava like here travelled miles under the surface layer and burst out over land or into the ocean. If the wall is breached and the lava starts down hill I think a molten river will flow out of the lava field and down the valley.
Years or decades later sometimes you can walk along those perfectly formed tube like tunnels where the lava flowed inside the flow
Excellent report!
Just a matter of time to get through. Thank you❤🙏🙏🙏
Wow
I would say your culinary experiments are extraordinary!
Thank you for your ongoing reports but always remember to keep your safety first.
Bad ass video. Thank you. You gave me a great perspective. Bravo!!!!!
This is the first time you actually sound worried
Y'all stay safe.

Nice job! Thanks for the close-up tour. I was amazed that you could walk across the earthwork berm. Stay safe out there... I look forward to hearing the results of your experiments.
Thank you! It's so amazing to watch how massive this volcano and lava field have become! I'm just awestruck! Your videos are the best! Stay safe 💕🌋🙏
Thank you for this video. Its very interesting and informative. I'll never will see or learn about it here in Texas. I Love video like this. Please be very careful and stay safe. May God Bless you and everyone in that little city.
