Boaters get close to volcano in Italy

Postby abducted » September 1st, 2019, 12:37 pm

Boaters who were sailing off Messina, Sicily, got a close-up look at Stromboli island’s volcano erupting.

They say if you see an erupting volcano and cannot cover it by sight with your thumb, you're too close to it and the pyroclastic flow. Death will either come horrifyingly fast, or painfully slow with respiratory problems.

Most people mistakenly feel that if you're not close to the actual magma, you're safe :?

magma moves slow


smoke moves as fast as the wind


And the wind can move REAL fast if it wants to.

Magma is the fluid inside the earth, lava is the molten rock u see flowing on the surface, with the gases escaped.
Pyroclastic flow is the stuff that flows down the volcano, so is the lava plus whatever Ash and smoke and dust it pushes along with it.
