Ok
Thanks Shawn. A full day for you. Much appreciated. 🙂👍
Shawn, I think you won the Internet today with that capture of the new fissure. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience, albeit tempered by its unfortunate location.
Thank you for all your time taken to share this with us, especially on your anniversary (thank you to your family for sharing you with us today). It was absolutely devastating to see the fissure opened up outside the berm and then again so close to town.
Thank you for your constant (non sensationalized) coverage!
Absolutely. Able to share with young grandkids without overwhelming or scaring them.
I live on the east coast. Yes, this is from earlier in the day. The lava did in fact encroach on the town where 3 houses caught on fire during Late afternoon EST. The " new" vent is what opened up and its lava crept into Grindavik😢
I watched live yesterday, and I was impressed by how you managed to maintain your sense of wonder at the geologic wonder of the fissures developing, but with a sense of sorrow for the people who were in the firing line. You also did an amazing job of juggling a lot of info, and you kept apologising for not multi-tasking well, but you provided astonishing coverage!!! We really appreciate what you do. Thank you.
Amazing footage! Talk about being in the right place at the right time for that second fissure opening! My condolences to the people of Grindavik!
It doesn't get any better than that, that is incredible footage and quality.
So amazing that this was caught on the drone camera. Thank you for letting us view a kind of instant replay from the live stream earlier today.
Although fairly new to your channel, due to the Iceland eruptions of the past several months, I watch regularly because of your teaching style. Having said that, I know you are a professor first and a CZcams podcaster second. However, with your time, financial investments, and care and concern you've extended to the Icelandic community (I am not one. I live and reside in the US), I am glad you discovered the second fissure eruption as it occurred. I was watching your livestream and saw when it happened via your drone flight, but this is a good post (just think, you will be in historical literature!). Thanks again for the educational exploration.
Astonishing that you got it on camera. That’ll be studied for a long time coming - congrats to you and NaturEye!
Seeing that vent open up in real time made my heart sink. Praying for a short eruption and minimal damage. Watching Puna get annihilated in 2018 was horrible, I pray we don't see a repeat in Grindavik.
Two homes (at least) have burned down, and gas and water lines have burned already. Thank you for the awesome photography and update.
Thank you, Shawn for this footage. I’ll catch you again tomorrow. Poor Grindavik.
Saw it this morning but came back for a second helping...
If this trend of quick and dramatic eruptions in the same fissure system continues, can we say anything (from earthquake data for example) about if the next active fissure will be another kilometre south, or if the magma has least resistance going north of the first vents instead?
Also, give your wife a huge hug and a big thank you from me for lending her husband and his expertise to us on that particular day. People who love you for the things you are passionate about are precious.
Geology history in the making! Needed tech for drones, phones, camera stability and the Internet for this!
Just loved watching this drone flight live! Thank you for coming in at 4 am to do this flight for us!
This was from the January 14 live stream is just a small extract from the almost 4h long direct of yesterday late mornings, beginning of the afternoon.
The growth of that new fissure was both frightening and amazing. I’m glad everyone is safe. Thanks for doing this.
Great summary of a long day. Happy anniversary. Awesome commitment to reportage.
this could very well be an iconic shot. either way its amazing and you guys were out there at the right time. this should be seen everywhere. its amazing. well done!
Real-time geology! Incredible! Hope some of the town and harbor infrastructure survives.
Simply incredible footage. I never imagined I would have the privilege to see the ground split open like this. Thank you so much.
Thank you your wife and family this footage was amazing 👏 😊
This is so amazing to watch. Great example of how some of the stunning geography of the world is created.
Wow! To watch Mother Nature show us her big show, in real time, is spectacular! Spectacular or disheartening for the town, and I feel for them, it’s astounding!
Amazing footage, Johan!👍 6:05 early stage of vent that burned down a few nearby houses
It is tragic as i watch this as a replay from earlier, it’s 1am in Iceland as I type this and it looks so much worse right now. Glad everyone is safe, and so sad for all they are losing.
It's going to be sad to see Grindavik in the morning :( What a sweet town. I hope most is spared.
Watching this video is just surreal. I had finished watching a video from Just Icelandic filmed a year ago on how he predicted this area was a possibility for an eruption, and here we are. Thank you for this aerial footage. It certainly gives a different perspective on the volcano's dynamics and exactly where it's moving. It seems Iceland is becoming more visually active each year..
That could catch anybody out how quick that vent opened up amazing.. wow thank you for the great footage
Amazing. How wonderful that you caught this moment in Earth's history! And thank you for sharing it with us. My heart goes out to Iceland.
Isn’t this the footage from earlier? Ok, this is the portion of the earlier drone footage when that fissure opened up.
yes. this is just the polished video of that.
Thoughts and Prayers to the residents of Grindavik.
Watched you live this morning. I've been watching coverage all day.Your coverage is better that any news channel.
Thanks to both you & Johan(?) …prayers for those effected. What an incredible educational
Opportunity provided by you and the folks at Nature Eye. Incredible!!!
It is truly amazing what drones are able to do and the view they are able to give us -- not even helicopters can match this ability at 1000X the cost to operate. That closer fissure has already destroyed at least 3 homes and if the eruption continues for a couple days then the east side of Grindavik is likely to follow suit.
that's incredible I'm sad for the people of grindavik but really cool you saw that fissure open up before your eyes..
praying for them
incredible footage, thats got to be a 1 in a million shot of seeing a vent open like that
Thaks for pulling this drone flight out of today’s live stream.
Saw multiple vids on this 2day. This was the best
Thank you Shawn! Its incredible that we get to see such Amazing views from halfway around the world so intimately.
Really appreciate your coverage and down to earth perspective.
I am so grateful for your coverage of this historic event! When I see a volcano or other major natural disaster, I am continuously in awe of the forces at play on our planet. At the same time, I am very sad for the residents of Grindavik.
What a way to spend an anniversary lol
DAMN, YOURE WIFE IS WORTH GOLD LETTING YOU DO THIS. SHES A KEEPER
or they're just about ready for a divorce.
Thank you for your time Shawn , happy anniversary ! As I watch the drone video I feel the inevitable coming ,I was hoping for the town to be spare but here is the reality ,can’t predict nature forces,so sad to see the town being destroy by the lava ,can only imagine how hard this must be for the people that call Grindavik home,I know Icelandic people are brave and resilient but this is so difficult to watch ,my heart goes out for them !
Shawn, thanks for your epic livestream on Sunday (Jan 14). To actually see a vent opening was incredible, though it's horrible for the homeowners whose neighbourhood is being destroyed.
Watched that live with you this morning...thanks for waking up so early and doing the stream. Happy Anniversary!
Amazing to watch this video today after having seen the events yesterday. But yesterday what I saw was pieces of the action here and there. This is so good, showing from start to a full flow toward the houses. Thank you! I fear there will be more of this to come, not just here, but in other places around town.
Shawn, make sure to have them be very careful when overflight of the lava as the radiant heat can be too much for the drone!
This is absolutely incredible, just wow!! Surreal.. looks like a movie..
Seen this awesome footage this morning, hope you and your wife have had a wonderful anniversary Shawn?
Wow, just look at what amazing things cooperation can do! Although your channel already is an outstanding geology channel, this incredible moment really made it shine. Thank you! Our thoughts of course are with the people of Grindavík who are te unfortunate victims of this geological process. It's a shame these volcanoes don't care about people.
Shawn- amazing live video from this morning!! thank you!!
Happy Anniversary!!
drone video as the small fisure opened was incredible virtual reality so sad to see peoples houses destroyed
Watching from Canada. Thank you so much for the footage and can't wait for more!
Thankyou and thank Johann for his great drone footage
Man that's gnarly!
Extraordinary but very sad footage.
Thank you Johann.
WOW, that was amazing !!
Thanks for editing the drone video of the new vent opening section of the long 3-hour live stream so people don't have to search for it.
Amazing yet so destructive
Amazing video from the drone!!!
Incredible!
It was really amazing to have been with you on you tube watching this live! Awesome - just a real shame its reached peoples houses as you said Shawn!
Incredible, what a capture!
This is fantastic footage for teaching students!
Spectacular filming. Incredible!! Thanks Shawn for showing us such a mind blowing event in real time to.
Absolutely Amazing Footage!
Amazing capture.
Nice capture, wow!
That is a great view, both angles 5:50 . Yah, that line right by town there progressed into the town, around the noon hour. By dark, it had burned a number of homes and began going down surrounding streets, they assume, heading to the water...
Thank you for the great drone footage. It was fascinating, terrifying, respectful and very sad for the people of Grindavik. I watched it live and had to stop watching just before the lava reached the houses as it was 1am Australia time.
My thoughts go out to the people of Grindavik, the emergency teams and residents of Iceland. Stay safe everyone.
Happy Anniversary Shawn. I hope you managed to get some sleep.
Awesome shots! Was that this morning?
Mother Nature was like, "nope, you're not gonna block me off with those berms."!
Yep it was
This is a cut from the live streaming from the 14 January
, the vents open around 2PM icelandic time
Cutting it fine! Hope the drone made it back safely.
Spectacular sight of the power of nature and the planet!
Shawn, please say thanks to your lovely wife.
I could hear everything you said perfectly, but you sounded a bit like a sports commentator in the 1970s whilst doing a broadcast from an event taking place a long way away!
This new headset is excellent!
Excellent images. Thank you.
Just realized this is just a condensed video of the one earlier today.
I saw this part already when I re-watched all of your livestream on Sunday with about an hour delay, but still fascinating and scary at the same time!
Mother nature at her most creative and simultaneously destructive. Its beautiful, but you have to feel for the residents. Thanks Shawn.
Amazing footage Shawn. Thank you.
Great drone views NatureEye!
Great summary video.
Thank you
The vent near the town...wow! Just spectacular footage and commentary. Thank you so much!!!
Gosh! Thank you.
I really appreciate your coverage, very informative.
unbelievable video
This fissure looks huge!
Danke!
Thank you shawn.. im here from just icelandic video. He was saying you caught the 2nd fissure opening up!
Amazing!!
Incredible footage, thank you. What an amazing thing to watch happen, but also sad for the town.
Bedankt
Thanks Shawn....Best info on thre world wide web
Excellent footage! And Commentary! Hope the houses in the line of lava flow make it, but, not looking too good
This 2nd vent actually did make it to the town and got a home - it was really interesting seeing the beginning of it - I'm glad you caught it
Good call
I saw this in the livestream, and the birth of the vent 3:43 was amazing. So memorable. Terrible due to the human impact, but also a super rare close up of geology happening in real time.
Ok, Shawn, you have an amazing wife. Happy Anniversary, Willseys.
