Attention, yes, but the New Yorker is such a political rag, now. The New Yorker's attention is much devalued since they all went nuts. Updike is rotating in his grave. Pretty sure there are other magazines better suited to covering a volcano.
This volcano has changed so much over the weeks since it first appeared. It is going to be interesting to see what it has in store for us in the future. Hello from Queensland Australia 🇦🇺❤️👍🏼🙋♀️
@@asbisi NO! it's a mother! she oozes her benevolence and threatens no one, no explosive outbursts that throw 10's of 1,000s of hot rocks into the air or overwhelming amounts of toxic gasses or ash that could kill any who are in it's path. This volcano deserves to be called, as the Icelandic ppl. do a 'tourist volcano' You can get w/in ft. of it's lava field and NOT be in danger, as long as you know that a lump of a few tons could just roll off the edge because the lava is constantly pushing the edges outwards. This volcano is simply raising the levels of the lower valleys, it as yet barely is a threat to any settlements altho if it does go on for another 2-300 yrs then that will definately change, but NOTHING is happening so fast that they cannot deal with it. It's just NOT that kind of volcano, that's what is so brilliant about it, we can get up 'close and personal' with mother Earth and she don't bite! She's just creating land.
@@johnzuijdveld9585 yes John, I totally agree. It’s an honour to see the creation of new land that will be there in another million years. And to think, hey! We predate that...man walked under that lava flow. Wow!
@@nolasmith7687Yes we s . . . hang on I mean they should've put a cement message in the ground before the eruptions got too advanced, saying s/thing like "Olaf was e're!" 🤭 Then in 100's of yrs or so archaeologists could find it and wonder! 🤔 It is a bit sad tho' they used to call it 'The beautiful Valley' in Icelandic of cause! But what to call it now? This is the 1st. volcano I've managed to watch it's progression from day 1 ! from a small fissure that grew and spawned 2 more just nearby just like a mum and her to kids but the 2 kids outgrew her. . . . . and then about 1k away another fissure opened that was actually about 5 or 6 fissures, that 1 pored out so much magma and yet it also died down when the last one . . (so far!) was born which is what we see now, I've read some say that the outpourings are not so great in volume put this seems pretty prolific to me. 😲
It's been a 'rip roaring adventure' for me even if only from my comp. at home, I'd been following RKV. for a month as he showed us the capital and surrounds but he warned that they were expecting s/thing like this so even that was exciting to follow! 😮 Hi there from chilly Adel. ☹
Art, this is meant in the best possible way, and you have most probably heard it many, many times. But you truly live up to your name, your footage is pure art!
Soon you won't have to climb the treacherous mountain path to get to the video. You will only have to walk on this new, flat path. (Assuming you wait for a few thousand years for the lava beneath it to cool down!)
@@demef758 : I don't know how long it'll take to cool down, but I think you're very close to the timeline. I know this video is 10 months ago, but is that volcano still erupting in April 2022?
"wherever two or more people are gathered together, someone will be trying to sell them a suspicious sausage in a bun" It does my heart good to hear that there is indeed a food truck.
I was there yesterday (ran into Valur while I was on my way down actually!), and getting the hot dog at the end of the hike truly felt like the ultimate gift from God.
Cool you got to meet Valur. Also, Icelandic hot dogs are no joke. They're so good that I can hardly enjoy american hot dogs anymore... unless i really doctor them up to taste closer to the ones I had in downtown Reykjavík.
Thank you Valur and Art! Yes it is very soothing to watch. I've been watching it before I go to sleep because of how soothing it is. Hopefully you get your picture in The New Yorker! Great newscast!
Another brilliant report. It seems strange, still, to hear a report that includes so much of the emotion of being there. A most welcome kind of strange. Thanks to Art for yet more wonderful footage.
I'm learning these names (hard to understand them when spoken). Valur and Art. I find Art's videography to be stunningly good. It's the main reason I tune in. Valur's English is also superb, not to mention his great sense of humor, such as "the volcano is a slaughterhouse for drones."
I love your videos! You give a great panoramic view, along with the closeups, to really see what is happening. I enjoy hearing the knowledge you have about region and volcanoes.
Valur, you are wearing my favorite sweater! I love the design and the two natural colors. We are coming to visit for a week in October and it would be great if the volcano was still active! If not, you have given us lots of ideas of things to do. We’re really looking forward to our visit. The closing shots of this video are awesome.
I hadn't seen any video showing the upwelling lava like that, now I completely understand why the path to spectator hill has been closed off. It looks as though the saddle could be covered in a couple of minutes if the lava welled up close to the edge.
Term for what's threatening the saddle necessary to reach the old observation mountain? Perched pond. Lava pools in areas surrounded by levees. Then either it overflows those levees or they breach and suddenly a voluminous, fast flow heads away from the perched pond. It's particularly dangerous if the levees breach as that releases a lot more of the lava volume in the perched pond. So the precaution of closing the old observation mountain is very necessary. The term for what the old observation mountain will likely become is kipuka. Kipuka is a Hawaiian language term for an uncovered area completely surrounded by lava.
Thanks for the info, very helpful. Do you know where is lava that is filling the search pond is coming from? There is no lava feeding from the big lava vent. Is it coming from one of the original lava vents which is now covered by the lava from the crater that is still erupting?
@@thisisme8666 I would certainly defer to Mr. Newton on this, but it's my understanding that while most of this new lava field looks cold and passive, it is only a shallow layer of cooled lava. Underneath is a giant white hot lava pool, 100 meters deep. It is everywhere, fed by "Bob's" endless eruptions. It is evident in the beautiful footage that closes the video, starting at 13:52.
@@demef758 yeah. I'm deeply concerned this is a bigger problem than what people my imagine. At least their is relieve in knowing that some of the pressure underneath is escaping.
@@thisisme8666 "There is no lava feeding from the big lava vent." Oh yes there is. The vast majority of that lava field is still liquid. It will take a very, very long time for it to cool. For example consider the lava erupted as part of Kilauea Iki in 1959: material was still liquid from that decades afterwards. Drilling was done in the 1980s if I recall correctly and liquid material from that eruption was found as they drilled down. This eruption's material is not as deep as that got yet, but it's not too far off in some places. It will take until past 2050 for parts of this eruption's material to cool off even if it stops now.
My poor phrasing. What I meant to say was there is no visible lava flowing from the current visible active cone/vent, as the majority of that lava seems to be following the main lava stream. However, the pond is still growing, with new molten lava visibly seeping through to the surface. Just wondering where that lava is coming from.
I just watched a documentary on Hawaii volcano. They are selling theirs as worlds most accessible lava field. It seems Hawaii can hold Iceland’s beer for a while ? Thanks again for real time news 🙏🇨🇦
And I keep saying it..no one shows off the situation with the volcano as well as this channel. Graphics or just being informative. It's just a joy watching.
I remember Mt St Halen eruption vividly. It was so monumental and so well covered that I still remember or half flash back memories when I see old coverage. This volcano is very different… but it is beautiful and so well covered. I knew almost nothing about Iceland. Now I know a lot thanks to this eruption.
I've wondered if it will ever calm down since reading that the flow is coming directly from the Earth's magma source, not from chambers. I'm also curious about what the effect of displacement is - if matter from inside the planet ends up on top what happens, if anything?
@@misc.endeavours8343 I suspect that the magma in the centre of the planet is constantly being renewed by the subduction process, it has to come out some where.
@@philadams964 Thank you for explaining that - I was beginning to imagine the Earth becoming drained and hollow with a very thickened outer layer in random areas and whatever peculiarities that might lead to!
@@philadams964 I'm guessing that it would be fed by the crust being recycled along the Pacific rim for example. It's a continuous process, which has been active for billions of years. :)
I suspect there are people there filming for the movie industry to get footage for future use if they ever need it. I mean come on! Where will they ever find something like this that looks so unreal?
I've noticed the calming effect of the volcano through the videos, too. I think the sound is also calming. Wow - the footage at the end with the sunset glow in the sky is just as breathtaking as the night shots!
That was not the side I thought would fill in first - but turning our favorite viewpoint into an island is a great loss. So glad we made the trips up when we could!
I will say this to the camera man, good job. No excessive zooming or excessive panning. Great stable shots. I can't tell you how much that aggravates me trying to watch videos of the eruption from some of the amateurs posting videos.
Wow, how the landscape has changed, give it another month at this rate it will morph into something quite different, nature ar it's best and worst, stay safe all,❤ from Wales.
I’m happy to hear someone may agree with me..have mentioned that the eruptions seem to be stronger at night & always get shot down. Thanks for your interesting news show! Wish it was more often! Hi! to Heidi from the US!
What you see at the end and which amazed you is called crustal resurfacing. That can occur in lava lake with fluid lava but also in the context of lava pond on a lava field.
😭 So gutted that the best viewing area is gone. If I make it thru all the hoops to get there in a few weeks I hope its still a good view. So jealous of people who got to see it in early stages!
Great shots as usual: good close-ups of the pillow lava. Also like the sweater: I had one similar purchased in 2008, which was particularly warm. But recently was dismayed to find it had been shredded by textile moths. Icelandic wool must be tastier than most.
I really look forward to these updates. Your guest has an interesting observation today. Watching the volcano do its thing forces you to slow down and adapt to its time. Just a tiny hint of geologic time.
More amazing footage. The videographer, Atta (sp?) is so good at his job. You continue to have the best footage on the volcano, and as always, love the channel. Big fan! Thanks!
Incredible!!! The Ever Changing Volcano is Truly Mesmerizing. I agree with the reporter from New York. I hope she does mention The Great Reporting and Video that Valur and Art have been doing. May people, listen and heed the warnings placed, blocking the now-former path. I’m waiting for my passport to arrive, so I can travel to Iceland and see the Volcano. Great Report and Outstanding Video, as Always. Thank You Valur and Art for all that you do and for this latest update. … and Hello to Polly, 🐶👋🌋
My husband and i love your relaxed being yourself style! You make watching news fun again! American reporters should take note and take a chance of just being themselves and have fun with the work! Thank you! We look forward to watching your reports!
Watched many videos of you. Finally subscribed :D top commentary and top editing. I guess It's the best impression you can get in the internet of this volcano.
Thanks for the amazing uppdates - Iceland is a long way from Australia- but i was there in 2006 - it was stunning - my favourite country - Im loving these updates ”nature is ancient” 😊👍
I so appreciate that you provide such extensive footage of the volcano without music. Much more real and special to just hear the natural sounds of the area, while looking at the footage, rather than annoying music over the footage.
It's incredible to see lava moving like this so far away from the crater. With the eruptions continuing, the crater will only get larger, as will the mound that's building up where the lava flows out from the crater. I'm sure this will slow the flow down slightly but it's still coming from a huge source. Thanks again, Kris.🇦🇺🥰
It’s is definitely mesmerizing The soothing effect can be perhaps be explained in different ways It is truly an awesome sight in that it generates a sense of awe - this has a positive effect on the immune system and our psychology Also, it is a powerful example of the forces of nature and how we are subject to them It’s a reminder of our insignificance in the grand scheme of things - humbling actually And the fascination of witnessing something that has been happening since the dawn of time on our planet 🌎🌋 Thank you for bringing this to those of us who are unable to travel there
Thanks again Valur and Art, Great video. The lava waterfall is stupendous - a huge volume in cubic metres/second. I presume it flows in tunnels under the lava sheet and is popping up in those pools at the edges.
That was a beautiful description from the New Yorker reporter! And it might explain why I watched this every day for over two months now. The time of mother earth is shining through the screen.
This reminds me of the first time I experienced seeing lava in Hawaii. The shapes and texture of the solidifying lava was just like this and we were able to walk right up to the molten lava which resembled molasses as it flowed.
WOW! What great pictures. It was fun to hear about the reporter's experience! I would love to hear about some of the rescue worker's experiences. They must have changed as much as the volcano has. Love your reporting. Thank you so much!
Watching the birth of new land while more of the old stuff gets eaten up in the subduction zone! What a process to witness! Thank you for your video's!
I have a feeling of calmness when watching footage from the volcano too in a way we are listening to the earths heartbeat and maybe our own hearts are beating in sync with the earths and it is centering our own inner core a bit hippy trippy I know but it's worth thinking about 🌋🌏
This is my favorite source for accurate and timely information about the volcano. The reporting and photography/videography are outstanding. I live in an area surrounded by >currently< semi-dormant volcanos and calderas. Mt. St. Helens was only a three hour drive away. Yellowstone is eight hours away by car.
Thanks for the report. About the increase of the activity at night. I noticed similar activity changes at other vulcanoes like Fuego or Etna. There must be some research on that. Now I'm really curious! I have to look it up! If I find something, I'm going to inform you all. XD
Holy crap. that volcano is nuts! I remember when the first crater opened back in March and there was a clip of the side wall collapsing and little lava river flowing out, I was like Wow, COOL! But look at what it has become!
We were just in Reykjavik this week and after 'ein með öllu' from the Bæjarins Bestu pylsur stand, we popped up to the Grapevine office nearby and MET POLLÝ!!!! She's adorable, it was a real highlight of the trip 😍🐶
Couple of observations: what was once a spatter cone that was prone to sudden collapse of its walls, has now become a truly formidable volcano. It’s been fascinating to watch its transformation. Secondly, once the lava crosses the path it will run rapidly into Meradalir and overtop the barrier. Which will of course mean that the volume of lava flowing towards the sea will increase significantly. Judging from this footage and the massive upwellling of lava in Geldingalir, I’m guessing that could happen as soon as tomorrow. Not in weeks but in hours!
"Splatter cone." I'm learning new phrases. I've notice how these cones are built up as well, and it strikes me that it is akin to making a mound out of loose gravel. The cone's structure has to be very weak, subject to collapse if jostled just the right way by the volcano. Imagine what will happen if one of these walls collapses now, with lava being pushed almost to the top of the opening of the cone. Yikes!
I hope she also writes about you in the New Yorker! You deserve the attention! Thanks for showing us these amazing views
Attention, yes, but the New Yorker is such a political rag, now. The New Yorker's attention is much devalued since they all went nuts. Updike is rotating in his grave. Pretty sure there are other magazines better suited to covering a volcano.
Can we just keep it a secret between us?

Thanks for the VLOGS. This is so fascinating!
No idea why anyone would dislike the videos, they are great and 100% appreciated, much love from the UK.
Surrounded by Lava and no exit? No problem: Gandalf will send the Eagles.
That would be horrifying really. Trapped by lava, no way out, and knowing it is just a matter of time before you are consumed by it...
Just what I was going to say🙂
What if you identify as an Apache attack helicopter
Or a helicopter...
My thought exactly: "the Eagles are coming!"

May people, listen and heed the warnings placed, blocking the now-former path. I’m waiting for my passport to arrive, so I can travel to Iceland and see the Volcano.
Great Report and Outstanding Video, as Always. Thank You Valur and Art for all that you do and for this latest update.
… and Hello to Polly, 🐶👋🌋
My husband and i love your relaxed being yourself style! You make watching news fun again! American reporters should take note and take a chance of just being themselves and have fun with the work! Thank you! We look forward to watching your reports!
Watched many videos of you. Finally subscribed :D top commentary and top editing. I guess It's the best impression you can get in the internet of this volcano.
Thanks for the amazing uppdates - Iceland is a long way from Australia- but i was there in 2006 - it was stunning - my favourite country - Im loving these updates ”nature is ancient” 😊👍
Hope you can make it back out here sometime soon.
Stunning shots 13:52 Thanks!
Awesome opening to the video!
I so appreciate that you provide such extensive footage of the volcano without music. Much more real and special to just hear the natural sounds of the area, while looking at the footage, rather than annoying music over the footage.
14:05 was like an ocean wave of lava. Spectacular.
I was surprised at how calming it is to watch the volcano. It's nice to find out I'm not the only one.
Beautiful pictures again!
I got my licorice box with the piece of lava. I love that I now have a piece of lava from the volcano I watch every day. Thank you!
It's incredible to see lava moving like this so far away from the crater. With the eruptions continuing, the crater will only get larger, as will the mound that's building up where the lava flows out from the crater. I'm sure this will slow the flow down slightly but it's still coming from a huge source. Thanks again, Kris.🇦🇺🥰
hope you keep these updates going. .JUST .FANTASTIC
It’s is definitely mesmerizing
The soothing effect can be perhaps be explained in different ways
It is truly an awesome sight in that it generates a sense of awe - this has a positive effect on the immune system and our psychology
Also, it is a powerful example of the forces of nature and how we are subject to them
It’s a reminder of our insignificance in the grand scheme of things - humbling actually
And the fascination of witnessing something that has been happening since the dawn of time on our planet 🌎🌋
Thank you for bringing this to those of us who are unable to travel there
Love your description and explanation! 💚🌎🌋🇮🇸✌️😸
Thanks again Valur and Art, Great video. The lava waterfall is stupendous - a huge volume in cubic metres/second. I presume it flows in tunnels under the lava sheet and is popping up in those pools at the edges.
Love your videos! thanks for the updates!!
That was a beautiful description from the New Yorker reporter! And it might explain why I watched this every day for over two months now. The time of mother earth is shining through the screen.
This reminds me of the first time I experienced seeing lava in Hawaii. The shapes and texture of the solidifying lava was just like this and we were able to walk right up to the molten lava which resembled molasses as it flowed.
That lava fountain is insane! Impressive, even from a greater distance.
WOW! What great pictures. It was fun to hear about the reporter's experience! I would love to hear about some of the rescue worker's experiences. They must have changed as much as the volcano has. Love your reporting. Thank you so much!
Watching the birth of new land while more of the old stuff gets eaten up in the subduction zone! What a process to witness! Thank you for your video's!
I have a feeling of calmness when watching footage from the volcano too in a way we are listening to the earths heartbeat and maybe our own hearts are beating in sync with the earths and it is centering our own inner core a bit hippy trippy I know but it's worth thinking about 🌋🌏
I love these videos. Been following for a few weeks now 😊
This is my favorite source for accurate and timely information about the volcano. The reporting and photography/videography are outstanding.
I live in an area surrounded by >currently< semi-dormant volcanos and calderas. Mt. St. Helens was only a three hour drive away. Yellowstone is eight hours away by car.
Awesome video again, thank you for your reporting and your commitment, it's really appreciated!
the sound that is coming from the volcano and the slow moving lava is simply amazing!
Great reporting, keep it going.
From Montana, USA
Living, breathing earth. Fabulous!
This is amazing. Well done
Thanks for the report.
About the increase of the activity at night. I noticed similar activity changes at other vulcanoes like Fuego or Etna. There must be some research on that. Now I'm really curious! I have to look it up! If I find something, I'm going to inform you all. XD
Par excellence for reporting!
I wouldn't 'Like' it, if I didn't enjoy it so much ... Keep it coming! 😉👍 Great presentation, excellent information, truly enjoyable!! 😊👌
I often find myself trying to "like" these videos from Reykjavík Grapevine more than once as I'm watching. Always great!
@@96503412 ... You're not alone ☺️
That wide view and pan across the ridge of the new observation mountain, mesmerizing fantastic video
Appreciate it, Bryan!
Holy crap. that volcano is nuts! I remember when the first crater opened back in March and there was a clip of the side wall collapsing and little lava river flowing out, I was like Wow, COOL! But look at what it has become!
6:45 That is some incredible timing.
Hello from Philly. Love these newcasts. Been watching since it started. Amazing how much it changes from day to day, I do miss polly.
We were just in Reykjavik this week and after 'ein með öllu' from the Bæjarins Bestu pylsur stand, we popped up to the Grapevine office nearby and MET POLLÝ!!!! She's adorable, it was a real highlight of the trip 😍🐶
@@OneFootInIceland I was saying the other day all of our local newscasts should be done with a dog like that. ;)
Couple of observations: what was once a spatter cone that was prone to sudden collapse of its walls, has now become a truly formidable volcano. It’s been fascinating to watch its transformation. Secondly, once the lava crosses the path it will run rapidly into Meradalir and overtop the barrier. Which will of course mean that the volume of lava flowing towards the sea will increase significantly. Judging from this footage and the massive upwellling of lava in Geldingalir, I’m guessing that could happen as soon as tomorrow. Not in weeks but in hours!
"Splatter cone." I'm learning new phrases. I've notice how these cones are built up as well, and it strikes me that it is akin to making a mound out of loose gravel. The cone's structure has to be very weak, subject to collapse if jostled just the right way by the volcano. Imagine what will happen if one of these walls collapses now, with lava being pushed almost to the top of the opening of the cone. Yikes!
Superb coverage!
I would love to see this. Keep posting your video.
I am so grateful I had the chance to see it from the closed mountain 😭
