- The town of Grindavík has agreed on a name for the lava field growing around the volcano and is working on paths to make the area more accessible. We also try to explain why the volcano’s new lava fountain is shooting almost 300 metres into the air, in a very similar way to our beloved Geysir. And finally, the volcano area is up for sale. But you'll probably need a couple of hundred million Icelandic krona if you want to get your foot on the volcano property ladder.

This has to be the best intro to any of your volcano videos yet. It's absolutely surreal. Whoever's shooting the landscape footage is a true artist.
Couldn’t agree more!
Not surprised that I didn't have to look too deep in the comment section to find someone complimenting the camera work. Happy to add my affirmation of the same sentiment. Well done Valur, camera person, and editor (if it is someone else).
👍
There're a lot of cameraman fans in our community! :) Everything Art films is a work of art (unintentional pun here) WE loved him even before the volcano series.
I would rather watch these videos than the live camera videos! Absolutely amazing!!!!!
Me too. Its because the reporter is giving sensible informed info about the volcano, instead of the incredibly crass comments we see on the cam sites.
And it's real sound. Roaring from deep within. A rushing freight train passing att 120km/h.
This is the best channel for Iceland news outside of Iceland. TY.
Thank You Valur, Ant, Polly and Grapevine Team. Excellent commentary and footage, as always. Very interesting. Great views of the volcano and surrounding scenery. No. 1 looks so small next to No. 5. The new road is fantastic! Great new name for the lava fields. Stay safe! 🙏
This Canadian is always happy to see your Logo appear on his CZcams playlist. Guaranteed an informative entertaining narrative with stunning visuals. Thank you again to the team for providing us access and insight into your most spectacular show on earth ! 🙏🇨🇦
My sentiments exactly! Watching from Australia.
@@96503412 ..me to...South Aus :)
Also me from 🇺🇸 USA
Now that is one impressive ambulance!
Making an episode about these rescuers and their equipment could be very interesting to see!
Yes, I would be interested in how they are organised. Is there always a certain number of staff positioned there? Are they called there only when needed? Where is their home base? Are they additional staff or are they part of the regular staff? Is there extra security staff to keep an eye on the people and give them orders when needed? What do they think of the volcano and of the people going there? Is volcano duty voluntary or is it just part of normal duty? How often do they go there? Does it ever become dull or is the volcano still interesting?
Since the beginning of this awesome volcanic event I have been watching your channel. It is certainly one of the best with clear precise descriptions and video quality and drone work. I look forward to watching as this spectacular event continues to show the world the power of nature and geology.
The English language strikes back! - Who would have thought that someone who can pronounce a word like Vaðlaheiðarvegavinnuverkfærageymsluskúrslyklakippuhringurinn could stumble over plain old ‘interestingly’ - I found that a bit surprising but kind of sweet.
Haha, exactly! Some words just sometimes twist your tongue all of a sudden.
I used to have a Danish girlfriend and used to have to watch her mouth to even attempt some of the simple sentences she was saying ... but I mostly failed because I just couldn't get my mouth into the correct position!!
I guess sometimes it can be the same for the Nordics with English. ☺
Can we have a video about this word..? 😱😄
Good point 😂
Wow! Giving Welsh a run for its money!
I love the opening and ending shots, Art. That burning moss gives the landscape a very spooky and eerie look. I always look forward to your videos.
Thank you Grapevine crew for once again sharing these fabulous images with the world.
Shoutout to the camera operator! That person is amazngly surefooted.
I am so so happy you do these reports! I'm not physically able to walk that far these days which is very disappointing but you make me feel like I'm really there! Thank you so much
The cinematographer is really good at their craft! I have enjoyed watching many of the newscasts posted!
"Look at that" (Warms his hands by the heat of the volcano) Too cool!
That is the most beautiful intro I have ever seen
This is the most informative channel about the volcano you can find in the web. The documentary about what is going on there is amazing. Thank you very much for this, with the hope of seeing lots of more of it. Stay safe!
I haven't watch any other channel since i found RVK Newscast.
The noise the volcano vent 5 makes is like a jet plane it’s AMAZING thank you for all the wonderful updates hope polie is well 🐾🥰
Echoing the other comments that your videographer is getting some amazing shots! Thanks for posting!
I love the way you instinctively turn to warm your hand as the eruption rises.
After watching all the newscast (I honestly don't think I missed any of them), I feel like I just want to shadow your cameraman. His world looks way more intriguing than anything else I've ever seen.
Alina Ioana -- I heartily agree. He is brilliant! This production team creates some of the best images I've ever seen on CZcams.
They use professional video and audio gear, which makes a great difference in quality. Most YT submissions are taken using crummy cellphone cameras. Professional camera lenses are incredibly expensive, but that's how/why you get the beautiful zooms that the cellphone guys can't touch.
@@demef758 good equipment helps...but a good photographer can make great photos with a cheap camera. There is a YT channel where professional photographers take up a challenge to take great photos with a barbie camera... at least I recall it as being a cheap toy camera for kids. It can be done dude it just takes talent.
Bob's last child far outdid his parents. LOL ;P . I really like watching your newscasts, Valur, so informative, but still entertaining. Thanks.
Valur’s excellent commentary and the cameraman’s marvellous filming, is a winning combination. Love these newscasts. Can we have an update on Poppy occasionally😁 thank you
Yes please. How is she😊
Poppy is a good sport in all situations. ❤️
No one else has been able to capture the synchronized sound of this behemoth like your crew has done. I am so glad your drone could not fly on this visit because I probably would have just been mesmerized all day and done nothing else but fanboy your excellent work.
Wow, those shots at the beginning were really beautiful.
A volcano-led recovery for Iceland’s post-COVID future. Who knew!!?? Centuries of this amazing fire and light show might be in store for us all!
That vantage point where you had the volcano behind you, actually gave one of the best views for really understanding the scale of vent 5. Seeing Bob in the foreground, just looking like an after thought vent too as quite telling. Vent 5 is massive and just keeps on growing. Wonderful footage as usual Valur!
"Bob" is nothing more than an anthill nowadays besides this lavamonster.
Amazing - thank you, thank you, thank you, so much for inspiring all of us to create our growing community and captivating the thousands of people each day who watch this 'little' volcano develop on our live stream! Can't wait to meet you guys in person when I get out there!
Rob (the map-maker) @ Tokolosh
Lovely and positively happy as always. You always make me smile.
"you'll probably need a couple of hundred million Icelandic krona"
Well, it IS hot property....
I'll see myself out.
😂 the last bit tickled me 😂
Ba-dum-tish!
Low heating costs, and big garden BBQ included.
Includes free rock gardens.
And you can watch another Icelandic 'banking' collapse on a daily basis.
I'll get my coat too...
I completely agree that watching this broadcast is so much more better to experience this volcano than the live feed. I mean where else can you learn about another part of the world and feel like your right there yourself. 🌋🌋🌋🌋🌋🌋
Owning a volcano would be an ultimate coolness!
Thank you Valur again for showing us this natural spectacle
I think I remember them talking about this in Hawaii even though it ended up not being the reason. The magma is under tremendous pressure and gas is dissolved in it. As it reaches closer to the surface the gas separates from the drop in pressure and explodes out pushing the lava and causing the geyser and the splatter. One other thing, that cone is not very strong so even when this is over I would not approach an edge.
What a wonderful way to end a news report - with a volcano erupting from a previously quiet crater.
Another fascinating report backed by incredible visuals. Thankyou.
Thanks for the stunning views. Its sometimes hard to get a perspective of whats going on from the live streams. I had no idea that was Bob in front of the current volcano. Bob is literally getting eaten up right now.
RVK reporting is so good! Camerawork is excellent and reporting is informative. I love it
That volcano is dangerously beautiful. Glad the walking paths are better for the people!
Your footage is truly some of the best out there for the volcano. I have been watching your newscasts for about a year now, and love them all, but this is seriously some of the best footage available. Well done, and thanks!
Some would call that Lava foam Tephra. It is a close cousin to Pumice. Both of which can float in water depending on trapped gas. I think it would be good to use it as a planting material.
You should give some credit to your camera crew... they do an amazing job.
He is very shy😊
Pretty sure his name is Art
These broadcasts are very informative (as in the name’s meaning and the road conditions etc.). Plus, the delivery is in a very clear and soothing voice. So thank you. I’m glad to see the influx of tourism is very likely helping your economy. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for sharing this spectacle with the world - your videos are the next best thing to being there.
As a High Five member, I can think of no better thing to fund than the Grapevine buying its own volcano as a home for a secret lair where Valur and Polly can plot world domination.
Anyone else up for it?
Sounds like the kind of thing that I'd be into.
Thre has to be chocolate to go with the world domination, though.
It would be a very happy world takeover, pretty sure.
Yes please.
@@alyssonrowan6835 forget world domination. A fondue pot, chocolate, a volcano to keep it warm and whatever you like to dip. Sounds like a perfect day.
@@Kimberly-dt4ko My profile states that I am an Evil Megagenius™ hellbent on world domination and chocolate.
Neither part is optional.
It is etheric to see the smoke coming out of the ground. Looking at the horizon, it's like I'm on the cloud top.
Excellent video, commentary, and up-to-date information, Valur. Thank you so much, from all of us tuning in. All the best !!! --- Doug, USA
Awesome! There is beauty in all that you can see. Truly the land of Fire and Ice. Yet, I would be afraid to get close. So thank you for sharing your thoughts and warmth ☺️🔥🤗🔥🙏✌️
Thank you for your beautiful posts -CAMERA MAN THANK YOU TOO !!!
IMAGERY OF LANDSCAPES ARE FANTASTIC !!!
Watching your channel from Fairfield Connecticut O6825 USA 🇺🇸
😎✌️🍾🥂💰💵🎹🌋🇺🇸
That is super cool Valur, I have loved your work from down under.
Valur, in a video sometime soon, can you please indicate where you stood when you presented earlier reports. It will be interesting to see what areas are now covered with lava or that no-one can get to because they are surrounded by hot lava.
Það er frekar magnað að það sé lítill miðill með fréttir fyrir útlendinga sem er með langbestu umfjöllunina um þetta gos og myndatakan alveg í sérflokki, vona að RÚV taki þetta til fyrirmyndar hjá ykkur. Takk fyrir mig :)
M husband and I have really been enjoying your broadcasts. Thanks for a great job!!
Lovely opening shot of the moss smoldering with the wind blowing the smoke away. Love your work (even the messed up words) stay real
I just wanna give shoutout to your camera man/women: excellent videography! Good composition, use of lighting and focus. really great! :D
Stunning. Just wonderful to watch these newscasts. Thankyou 😊
Your photographer is brilliant. You need to give them a namecheck!
Lava in hollywood: "Look out, the floor is lava, let's jump over it on stones! As long as you don't touch it, it's OK!"
Lava in real life: "It warms you up from several hundred meters away, actually."
exactly. Like that scene in starwars with the lava and laser sword fight. Isn't just going to be your legs burning when you lose the high ground buddy!
It depends on the volcano. I remember a documentary that featured the Nyiragongo volcano in Congo (africa). It has the fastest lava flows on earth. The lava can speed up to 100kph or 62 mph.
In my country it was 'Mothers Day' on Sun.. so I think it was very respectful of 5 to take that day off so that ppl. would be more attentive to preparing for more important things that w/end. . . aww so sweet! 🤗
That dark rock if that's what it is looks like pumice probably mixed with ash. . . I dunno. 🤔
Great to see this ever changing spectacle.
you and the volcano are the best thing of 2021,so far......
The first shots are just absolutely magnificent! You must make a feature movie with such shots... I thought it was lava falling into the sea or something very mysterious ....Thanks so much for showing it to us!
Yay! You're back! Missed you last week!
Great report as usual, the videography was exceptional.
Thank you for all the videos, they are very entertaining and even funny when you get mixed up with your words as you explain every thing! Not meant as a negative comment but a positive comment, makes your commentary more interesting and not boring. You're doing a great service for all the people around the world that can't be there to see it in person, thanks again.
I’m so grateful to you for these fascinating newscasts. I love learning about the volcano and how it works, according to the brilliant Icelandic scientists. I love your perspective which comes from being there so often. I think I’ve watched almost all of them! It’s ALMOST filling my longing for Iceland!
Thank you for another fun and informative news report on the Volcano. And the camera operator is the best I have ever seen.
brilliant! art u are a master. valur, thank you so much!
Thank you Valur and your team. It is so marvelous. I love it to see this video and your comments are so great, so unique. I like your charisma. I don't know how to express it... 🤔😀👋👌✌️High Five
Hello from Berkshire, UK. Feeling inspired by all things ‘Grapevine’ 💡Thanks for your continued excellent output. I’m working through your ‘back catalogue’ of newscasts / hints & tips etc. Hoping to visit next year. I’m trying to learn some language and am enjoying all the beautiful sounds ☺️. All the best x
Thank you for the news and uploading the beautiful images. Well Done 🙌🙌🙌
When you can see Valur in front of the lava field it looks like he is standing in front of a green screen. :D
Good work and nice video as always, by the way.
First 30 seconds......brilliant!!
After being away for a week visiting my own mountains in Victoria, Australia without any internet service, it's been wonderful to catch up on the happenings with the eruption. I must admit that I did think of it whilst away. Most upset with the boring name! They need to go back to the drawing board and pick something else. Spectacular scenery like this deserves a better name. Maybe the Icelandic Gov't should purchase the land and make it into a nature reserve? Therefore there will be no profiteering. So grateful for the updates, Kris.🇦🇺
Wonderful show!
As always, extremely good pictures and good journalism.
Great stuff! Keep it coming - both the news and the lava!
Thank you for your excellent report! I look forward to more about this fascinating volcano and the beautiful land you live in!
Be safe… thanx for the news!
So wonderful pictures! Famous!
I feel so much in my heart about this and thank you for bringing it to me!
👏👏🥰. That was funny and impressive when you turned around and saw the lava geyser, and you were like whoa 🤗. Please do longer news casts🙏
Your reports are great, pleasure to watch! :) Visited Iceland in 2014, you are lucky to live in such alien world which offers such spectacles, island is amazing creation of mother nature! Wish I could be there now, I'd go to volcano every day :) Cheers from Croatia!
Thanks, Valur and Art.
This is just the best newscast!
Wow! That opening shot!
Thank you I really enjoy your updates fantastic work, peace and love from Wales uk.
Wonderfull and frightening cheers from Luxembourg 🇱🇺
We are enjoying your programming here in SW Iowa USA. You do great work. Stay safe.
Thank you again wonderful reporting!
You guys are getting to be like family now
Thanks for this upclose view and that smoke and wind shot is very beautiful. Look fwd to 102!
Wow! The intro picture is spooked. Everything looks peaceful but dangerous with ghosts.
Wauw, the start of this video.... !
Another brilliant video and reporting, thank you from Philippines.
It is great to see and experience the best videos on the volcano that you and your team produce, especially when there is so much doom and gloom going on around the world at the moment. You bring a breath of fresh air ( ableit) the air may have a hint of sulfur in it to a mainly stale planet 🌏. All the best from NZ.
I agree, this is the best channel for volcanic updates. It is beautiful to see. Do the scientists have any idea of the size of the magma chamber? Or how long it may erupt?
Thank you for you. and please stay safe.
Seriously: you should print and sell these shots to support the Grapevine!
Another fabulous edition! Thanks so much for explaining the smoke on the downwind side. I had thought it was the magma boiling off the groundwater. Keep up the good work!
The best videography, kudos to the tech
Bonus points for the "Volcano Elitist."
Thanks. I would love to visit before its over
