The Nyiragongo lava lake near the Congo/Rwanda border. in 2002, the lava lake drained, pouring lava into the nearby city of Goma. This footage was shot in 2005 during the filming of the Angry Planet TV series.

Great footage, George. If you can try to find yourself a copy of the book "Nyiragongo: The Forbidden Volcano" by Haroun Tazieff, a French volcanologist who was one of the world's great authorities on Nyiragongo and who conducted some remarkable expeditions down into the caldera and right down to the lava lake itself; it's a damn good read. I'm also trying to locate footage of his 1948 expedition which was quite spectacular
Growing up I used to think of volcanoes as something just like this, a cone with a lake of lava in the caldera. Now days I see this and I think how weird they are compared to mountains like those in the Cascade Range (St. Helens, Rainier, Hood, Shasta, etc.)
Very cool video, I wish I could see something like this in person.
Who want a swim in the pool? :D
Fantastic video. 999/5.
Simply Amazing
HAHA I'm going there this weekend!!!!! I can't wait!!! Kinda worried about crossing the border into Congo from Rwanda though.....
this video gives me the chills
This is why nature is awesome.
that glares my eyes jus lookin at it, i cant imagine what its like in person
However did the noise filtering on this video did a terrible job. It sounds like an alien spaceship the whole time at the beginning.
this has just erupted again , x
Why are these comments so old
OMG that is so cool!!!
😊
How do you even record this?
Great Video!
Alive?
A 33-year-old female tourist from Hong Kong died after falling 200 meters onto a ledge in the crater of Nyiragongo. The woman climbed 15 meters in to get a better photo of the lava lake against tour guides' warnings. She lost her balance and slipped ... into the process of natural selection.
i could just sit there and throw things into it all day :D
I'm going fishing there.
beautiful,yet deadly
@Sreewtyui Actually, a modern incinerator is as hot as or hotter than lava is, and is a much more easily controlled environment. Keep the incinerator.
Feb 2 2022 still wondering why this channel rarely post
anyone know the composition of this magma?
Very very cool
Chuck Norris swims through land , this is his jacuzzi ✨👍
being in that and never dying torments day and night!! Hells Real!!
Good comment, it says in the description box.
a perfect place to lead the wicked rulers of this world.
Volcano very good i good night!!!👍🏻👍🏻😉😉
SHIT! IT'S MOUNT DOOM, THROW THE RING NOW!!!
wonder how hot is the woter around it...
يالطيف ألطف بنا .. لاإلة الا الله سبحانه
Damn !
@Sirius4827 Volcanoes is al natural, cars aren't. Volcanoes don't just throw CO2 in the air. They do a lot more than this and a lot of it is positive too.
what would happen if you drop a nuke into that ?
we would die
@snuckles108 it would light on fire?
@mlanier1007 that put the most disturbing image in my head. LOL thanks for that. >.
i would love to swim out there
don't forget to put on some sunscreen
it's all about the cost/efficiency my friend.
Falling into something like that is my vision of Hell ;_;
stop starring at my bathtub Thats where i swim and bathe...
How Dare THEY PUT MY SWIMMING POOL ON UA-cam!!
No problem... x)
@jakehenlan IRL, you can put in a canister actaully :)
wow
Imagine falling in!!!
What a remarkable look into the face of our Earth's Creator. For those Who "BELIEVE" otherwise, This is what created the Earth and every mountain and canyon and green forest from the top of Mount Everest to the bottom of the deepest sea Volcano's shaped and formed every inch. All life flows from these fiery depths of
"hell" They bring forth life and can take it away in the blink of an eye. Truly amazing if looked through the eyes of science and not fairy tales. Regards to all. PEACE BE WITH YOU
ooo pretty, ill lean closer to- AHHHH!!!!! I BURRRRRN!!
@harrypotter720 im guessing its mm mabey 2000 to 5000 degrees hot
What I'm doing then?
اللهم ارحمنا يا حي يا قيوم
this is going to sound weird but i know if i were where they are i would probably have the sudden urge to jump in that.
It would probably be an extraordinarily quick death if it's hot enough to be fluid like that. But I'm not in a hurry to find out.
Up until the middle of the 20th century, the volcano Mihara south of Tokyo was a popular place for depressed Japanese and crazy lovers to snuff it. There was a lookout from which one could leap into the flow in the crater. Twisted people used to watch and cheer the suicides. The Japanese finally put up a barrier to keep people from jumping.
@akifkaya1 i wouldend even dare attempt it
sinces thats gotta be over 2000 degrees hot in there.
the moment ur body makes contact with the lava then thats it your gone
Si México no va al mundial, echamos a todos los seleccionados ahi dentro...incluído al técnico¡¡¡.
Jjaja, he dicho¡¡¡
地球上にこんな場所があるのか!地獄だ!
With all that available energy the Planet has to offer, I can't understand why Scientists aren't looking at ways for us to Benefit from it. We would at least start to live in harmony with the Earth then instead of the primitive way we resource energy at the moment.
it its been known that there is only one element capeable of surviving environments this hot that element is known as Dolmite
Quick Frodo, the Ring!!
The low levels of silica makes this volcanoes magma low in viscosity. Wouldn't wanna live near there.
@oprah999
OMG! That's so awful, but I laughed so hard at what you said that ... oh, God, I'm go to hell for it! See you there! LMAO!
@zafirah786 hah i can imagine it
the moment u fall in its byebye since you would be singed and consumed by the intense heat and temprature
Wow, instant suntan! Much better than the fake orange stuff!
So THESE are the literal HOT SPOTS around the WORLD?!
Look at that BOILING INFERNO! It's RADIATING HEAT everywhere!
MAGNIFICENT sight to SEE! Just don't get BURNED!!
somehow it reminds me of those cartoons were ppl almost get trown in it
The bathtub of Chuck Norris. lol
@RHCPThom quite right cuz the instant ur skin and ur whole body makes contact with that lava then thats it ur life on this earth is finished n in other words you would officialy end up turning into a human torch being lit at 2000 degrees by this pit
One Ring to rule them all.
@FLAME4564 all the water would be instantly turned into steam, thus a steam explosion. very violent.
the ultimate punishment would be to throw the worst criminals in there, i think that would lower crime a bit- knowing ya gonna get chucked into a burning lake of lava!
This is were companion cubes go.
i dont get why they dont use lava lakes like thisasgient land fills
No polution no over flowit would be perfect
Chuck norris bathes in there!
@iassen1 Are you serious? I was actually looking for this video to make that comment and you beat me to it! xD
heh, think of the death scene in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom
But that dude was probably burnt up before he got all the way in there
in minecraft you get this with a bucket???
I was waiting for Ragnaros to appear
cooler pool
Mr. Frodo?
I wonder what would happen if they poured millions and millions of gallons of liquid nitrogen in there.
Theres a video of some one throwing a garbage bag in a volcano and bang
@cokerivera
No seas ignorante. Si algo como el infierno existe, sera en otra dimension o algo asi. El fuego no puede dañar la energia, si hechas un alma a un volcan es imprevia al daño.
@69chocolateboy
That isnt possible xD
Jehanam
Jump to center lava please
@JManu3
lol damn straight
get every blood on the dancefloor fantard and throw them in there! XD
this is Chuck Norris's bathtub
I was in the hospital for 12 month cause i touch lava
holy frick
THIS IS SPARTA!!! -gerard butler kicks in justin beiber-
u wouldnt have anyt ime to share the experience anyway:o)
@sErgEantaEgis12 He must've had a dodgey curry then!
Looks like chuck norisses hot tub
taco bell chili when its done
That looks like it was purposefully designed for human sacrifice
I'm pretty sure that I would never stop throwing stuff into that thing. I'd buy a shitty old car that barely works just so I could roll the fucker in there.
They say the lava lake formed after Chuck Norris pooped there
Fail
Not really...
Anyone have tons of garbage? Want to get rid of it? Throw it in the lava lake!
take out the bacon lol lol
Poor Mother Nature
Dont get THAT angry
Your just sick
nothing else...
