Mount Dukono is known for frequent eruptions, and local guides are typically more experienced in navigating such situations. As of Apr. 7, Bernama reported that the volcano is at Level 3 status, indicating a significant escalation in activity. #mothershipnews
šŸŒ‹šŸšØ Throwing Water Into a Volcano… What Happens Next Is Terrifying šŸ˜±āš ļø A volcano already holds unimaginable heat beneath its surface. But when water suddenly meets molten rock… the reaction can become violently explosive. What looks like a simple splash can trigger one of nature’s most dangerous chemical reactions. šŸ”„ Lava vs Water: Molten lava can reach over 1,000°C — instantly turning water into high-pressure steam šŸ’„ Steam Explosion: The rapid expansion can blast rocks, ash, and boiling water into the air 🌫 Toxic Clouds: Hot steam mixed with volcanic gases creates deadly vapor clouds ⚔ Sudden Eruptions: Even a small disturbance can trigger unpredictable bursts from the crater šŸ’€ Extreme Danger: Getting close to an active volcano is one of the most dangerous mistakes anyone can make Volcanoes are not just mountains of fire — they are unstable pressure systems where even small changes can cause explosive results. šŸŽ„ Video Credit: DM for credits/removal to the real owner. šŸ’¬ Would you ever stand this close to an active volcano? šŸ‘‰ Follow @brutalityofdisaster for more terrifying moments where nature shows its brutal power. . . . #volcano #eruption #scarynature #extremenature #naturaldisaster
Hawaii's KÄ«lauea volcano erupted on March 10, 2026 — sending lava fountains 1,300 feet into the air and an ash plume 30,000 feet above sea level. And people are still booking flights. Because where else on Earth can you watch an active volcano reshape the land in real time? Hawaii isn't just a destination. It's a living, breathing force of nature. #Hawaii #Kilauea #VolcanoEruption #HawaiiTravel #TourVertex

This might be the coolest thing I’ve filmed on my drone! I still can’t believe this was real life- not AI. Last month, I had the incredible experience of visiting an erupting volcano in Guatemala. The people in this video are about 1km away from the volcano, accompanied by local guides. This was filmed on a Mavic 4 Pro drone, with a 168mm telephoto lens. #volcano #guatemala #fuego #volcandefuego #dronevideo
When a volcano erupts metres away, do you run or stay? A group of hikers faced that exact decision when an active volcano on Indonesia’s Halmahera Island suddenly erupted on Apr 6. As a column of ash and debris rose in front of them from Mount Dukono, some tried to descend — but an experienced guide told them to stay put. In the comments of a TikTok video of the incident, the poster later explained why having a local guide on such treks is essential. #mountdukono #indonesia #indonesianews
Rocks are falling from the sky!! 🤯 šŸ“Kilauea Volcano, Hawaii
Few things test a hiker's nerves quite like standing on the summit of an active volcano when it suddenly decides to erupt. That is exactly what happened to a group of hikers at the peak of Mount Dukono in North Halmahera, Indonesia, when a sudden eruption sent a powerful blast of ash and volcanic material surging skyward just meters away. The instinct was immediate. With the deafening boom and a towering ash column rising directly in front of them, several hikers moved to descend, every survival instinct telling them to get off the mountain as fast as possible. That is when the local guide stepped in with a decision that likely saved lives: stay put. The call was counterintuitive but deeply informed. At the open summit, wind direction is far easier to read, meaning the movement of ash and hazardous material can be tracked and anticipated. Descending in a panicked state, on the other hand, risks sending hikers directly into the path of ash fall along exposed trail sections below, where there is little ability to course-correct in time. The guide's composure in that moment was the difference between chaos and control. It is a vivid reminder of why experienced local guides are not optional on high-risk volcanic climbs but absolutely essential. Mount Dukono is one of Indonesia's most persistently active volcanoes, recording near-continuous eruptive activity since 1933. Its summit offers dramatic views precisely because it sits at the edge of something genuinely volatile. That combination of spectacle and danger makes expert guidance not just advisable but non-negotiable for anyone setting foot on its slopes. Credit(s): TikTok/ambi_bollll #Seasia #SeasiaNews
Mount Etna. Sicily. Europe’s largest and most active volcano. It’s also someone’s workshop. Local artisans have been working with Etna’s lava for centuries. Ashtrays. Jewelry. Glazed tables. Kitchen tools. They work with molten rock using metal rods. Pour it into molds. Stamp the surface. Let it cool. The whole process takes seconds. No two pieces ever look the same. Because no two flows are ever the same. More than 25% of Sicily’s population lives on Etna’s slopes. To most of the world that sounds insane. To them - it’s the most fertile soil on earth. The richest mineral base. They didn’t run from the volcano. They built a craft on top of it. That’s not a product. That’s geology you can hold in your hands. If you want to understand how the greatest opportunities are hidden inside what others call dangerous - and use AI to find yours - āž• Comment ā€˜BONUS’ and I’ll send you a free Beginners Guide + 350 Prompt Bible to Master AI 🦾 #mountetna #lavacrafts #siciliancraft #italiandesign #volcanicart
Harrowing video captured the moment the Santiaguito volcano in Guatemala suddenly erupted, sending hikers running for their lives as debris came raining down. Despite being prohibited to climb, hikers routinely ignore the restrictions.
A hiking group near Mount Dukono narrowly avoided danger after a sudden eruption on April 6. As ash and debris shot into the Ų§Ł„Ł‡ŁˆŲ§Ų”, some hikers instinctively moved downhill, but their local guide urgently instructed them to stop and climb upward instead. ⁠ ⁠ In volcanic terrain, descending can increase risk since ash clouds, gases and debris often travel downslope. The guide’s quick decision helped the group avoid the most dangerous path of the eruption. The incident has since sparked discussion online about the importance of experienced local guides in high-risk environments.⁠ ⁠ šŸ“½ļøEdited by: Gabe Jung⁠ 🤳Click our linkinbio to sign up to our daily newsletter.⁠ ⁠⁠ šŸ“°Follow us for the latest Asian News @NextShark⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #news #reel #indonesia #mountdukono #volcano #eruption #hiking #trekking #adventure #travel #nature #volcanic #ashcloud #survival #breakingnews #worldnews #exploration #outdoors #safety #travelguide #viralvideo #tiktoknews #instagramnews #naturaldisaster #environment #risk #awareness #climbing #hikers
June 3, 1991. Mount Unzen, Japan, erupts after 200 years of silence. A pyroclastic flow isn't lava — it's a mixture of superheated gas, ash, and rock that races downhill faster than any vehicle on Earth. Maurice and Katia Krafft, French volcanologists, had filmed eruptions for 25 years and openly said: "We want to die on a volcano." With them was American Harry Glicken, who survived Mount St. Helens in 1980 only because he swapped shifts with his mentor David Johnston — Johnston died, and Glicken carried the guilt. That day all 43 people on the slope were killed. The Kraffts were found together near their rental car. Glicken had tried to run. Video author unknown.
