  • According to the newest findings by Icelandic geologists, the fire geyser’s lava fountain, or number five as it’s called, reaches 300 metres now. Whereas in the beginning, it was around 200-250 metres. Additionally, the volcano is now twice the size than it used to be. The lava coming out of the volcano is around 13 cubic metres per second, but used to be around 5-8 cubic metres per second. We also flew our drone over Meradalir in the twilights, and it’s safe to say that the valley is changing rapidly.

    The beginning of today’s video - WOW !!!
    Valur and Art, Thank You again for such Amazing footage. When you explained ( using picture of the Church, to Compare ), how high 300 meters is like, it brought it into a new perspective for me. Valur, I remember in one episode of your “Abandoned Iceland “, videos, you said, “Nature is in Charge “. This was a Perfect example of just that. The volcano is Beautiful to see but it’s power can be dangerous and must be respected. I feel that your program really explains this Very well.
    Also, you had mentioned in RVK episode #98, that Engineers wanted to divert the Lava - is there any New Information about this happening?
    A wonderful newscast, as Always. Stay Safe and please let us know when you’ll be doing another AMA. (Hopefully soon) From Arizona - We Love Polly. 🐶👍🏼🌋

    Ummm...Valur?
    You casually tossed that tephra away after telling us your gf is collecting them! 😄 I fear you may get a look from her once she sees this episode!

      It was the stones he said she's collecting, not the tephra itself. :)
