American documentaries have sensationalistic narrations and music. A far cry from the mature and excellent British documentaries.

Don't live on volcano do u

My mother has supported PBS all of my childhood and I will do the same as an adult

2018 I was glued to the feeds on this eruption and it was the most interesting volcanic activity I've ever been able to witness and it just shows how the Hawaiian people love and respect the land they live on.

Great documentary being a geologist, love to visit & explore beauty of nature.

Love how the people there are one with nature even under such circumstances

It's amazing how drone technology was used effectively in monitoring volcanic activity & lava flow, even saving a human life.

Some of the comments here are truly ridiculous. As is the hyperbolic commentary. I was one of those living in Leilani at the time (and still today) we weren’t rushing/fleeing for our lives it was very orderly… we had days to evacuate…

I was living in a sub division near the town of Pahoa on the big island of Hawaii in 1984. Then one rainy night, i saw a bright light as bright as the sun appear on a ridge about 4 miles away. Then a lava fountain rose and fell and illuminated the rain clouds. The colors were brilliant hues of red, yellow and white. I could hear the lava splatter on the ground and a river flowing towards the town of Kalapana. I had witnessed Kiluea's new east rift open up. It was the most spectacular occurrence that I have ever seen in all my years. The eruption went on for 9 hours.

The last unpredictable volcanic activity, covered up 703 homes (all built in Lava zone 1) This area was well known for "cheap" land because it was in a danger zone, zone 1. You could buy an acre for 5k. But it's very risky. There were gas seepage coming from the ground prior to the volcanic explosion. For 20 years there was gas seepage!

How time rushes 5 years are about to pass n i remember it fresh .

Great video to watch when it's freezing outside. Merry Christmas :-) Peace

I always eagerly anticipate PBS videos. They are a visually stimulating, educational, professionally produced, records of Earth and more. Thank you. It is good the volcano emits mafic (slow moving, sticky) lava rather than felsic (explosive eruptions, contains more gasses) lava. Could you imagine if this was a Mt. Saint Helens? What carnage that would be. Best wishes to all people adversely affected. Be well all. Edit: LOL. If I waited until 27:43 I would have known they residents near this fissure were going to have to deal with felsic magma/lava. ☺️😉

real visual of gigantic & deep hole of lava, what a spectacular sight.

Great presentation PBS. Hopefully for those that experienced this and lost homes and land , this report did the event justice. ❤️‍🔥🙏👍🏻

And the lava did come again and filled the caldera with a lava lake that just recently stopped erupting. For awhile both Mona Loa and Kilauea were both erupting. And then they stoped. Until the next time.

It is no wonder that the indigenous people have worshipped these volcanoes from the very beginning. Mother Nature is magnificent and terrible in Her displays.🖤🇨🇦

I live in Toronto, Canada. We worry about abundance of snow and cold in winter, and far too much rain or drought for the rest of the year. Volcanoes? Not so much. Guess we have it easy.

This is a formal invitation for the USA to join the rest of the world in embracing the wonders of the METRIC system. We'll help you through it, it's not as scary as you think. (Australia did it in it in 1966, the onlside effect was that one generation used both systems and the following 2 generations used the new system but understood the old. (Some of us still measure the height of people in feet and inches.) 😅

You can turn the sound down and have the subtitles on, but the over-dramatic script is pretty much as bad. When you have exploding mountains as you subject, why try to make it more dramatic?

The MV Holiday Island caught on fire.

The house I lived in was in Leilani Estates. There was a huge crack behind our catchment pool that during the eruption Fire went Shooting up in the air. The house is gone now and so are all the Orchids that grew wild around it.

Beautiful hell right there 🎉🎉🎉🎉

I went to Volcanoes National Park, went to the visitor's center, and looked into the caldera in 2018. Turns out that was the last weekend before that area was wiped from the planet. That was pretty wild.

Great documentary, totally enjoyed it 👍 The volcanologist really had a field day with this eruption and learning a lots more about Hawaiian volcanoes. I'm not surprised there's even tourist visiting the area and neglected the danger, they really love to stare at the eyes of death, just like during 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake where the tourist just stare at the incoming tsunamis despite knowing it's a tsunami. I think some people have fascination with dangers that they must need to quench by hook or by crook.

what mother nature gives, she takes. then, she gives it back. much more bountiful. such brutally beautiful chaos.

Local authorities haven't learnt not to build on dangerous land and don't say the whole island is hazardous because it isn't. I would also be wearing a hazard suit close to lava gas.

It’s dangerous but also so beautiful

It is terrible what happened to ppl lives and house but Mother Nature takes no prisoners and when u live on a Volcano u have to expect it to blow its top now and again

Love your volcano cause she like do what she like do

Is this an old video in 2018 or 2022? What is going on again in Hawaii?

Those who want to live on the slopes of - or directly on - volcanoes ("active" or presumably no longer active) consciously take the risk of losing their lives or property. At most, I have compassion for children, the elderly and animals who do not have this choice and are injured or lose their lives due to the stupidity of others who simply make this choice for them.

هاواي جزيرة بركانيه ناشئه !

"This is INSANE" - quote from guy who lives next to a volcano. 🤦‍♂️

the dropping of the lava would that not be the same as an incoming tsunami? all the water recedes and then comes back full force.

This is one of those " no sh#t category videos" 😂😂 Incredibly funny when people surprised at eruption and they live on a volcano 🌋 😮

I wonder what can happens when you build house on a active volcano???.... The eruption of the Kilauea volcano showed me, as a tourist who was there during this eruption, the big island problem. the problem is that a long time ago very rich people occupied the best part of the island, i.e. the north where there are green pastures, beautiful grass and no active volcanoes. the poor are left with the worst, covered with lava from previous eruptions, lands on the slopes of active volcanoes. I know people who lost their homes in this eruption, they all moved from the big island.

Gateway to hell indeed. Very interesting video. Oh and the beautiful nature of Hawaii. Truly a paradise............

Hawaii should have free energy of that just to harness this

Feels like Pele is trying to reclaim lands to the indigenous people, like : ' warning, this land belongs to not you, but them.. '

Darn, why were people messing around that close to the the lava? Silly geese.

VEI is not a benchmark for whether it is very brutal and cruel or not, because one of the volcanoes in Indonesia has erupted in 2 VEI but can kill more than 50 people. Meanwhile, Hunga Tonga with 6 VEI can only kill 3 people. So VEI is not a measure of whether a volcano is dangerous or not. Krakatoa in Indonesia 6 VEI 36.000 people died, so different.
