As someone who spends way too much time indoors behind a monitor, I don’t get a lot of opportunities or time to explore nature in all its glory. Thankfully, YouTube does an excellent job in keeping me up to date with everything going on outside my window, as is the case with this unbelievable video of molten lava spilling into the ocean.
We’ve all seen volcanic explosions on TV or in movies, but to see rare footage like this is something entirely different and unique. The camera couldn’t have gotten much closer to the lava without actually touching it.

That was oddly satisfying to watch, yet it made me anxious at the same time for some reason. I went between “Whoa, awesome!” to “WATCH OUT, YOU’RE TOO CLOSE!” several times.
