Please make a video about the potentially active Volcano located in Laguna Philippines named Mount Makiling/Maquiling. That volcano looks like when its going blow the entire mountain would be vanish in seconds. And I had a gut feeling that the movement of the West Valley Fault / Marikina fault will the cause of its Reactivation (Mount Makiling).
There's a period news reel which documented the aftermath of the 1951 eruption. The devastation recorded on film demonstrated the destructive power of the volcano, even if the reel was black and white.
From an interview with a resident of the island, the memories of those 50's events are still fresh and when the volcano awakens (shakes and steaming) it's time to GTFO quick. Vulcan - sometimes erroneously called "Old Volcano" - also sank a town on the beach nearby when the land subsided after the last 19th century eruption: a marble cross marks the spot where the church once was. You can actually see and trace the old coastline on Google earth, and locate the old town. Forgot the name at the moment. Hibok-Hibok also is one of the six permanently monitored volcanoes here. Definitely deserves that monitoring station.
I have been seeing this volcano every single time I pass the road when going either East or West of my island of Bohol and I am so happy that you covered this here.
Thanks so much Geology Hub for covering our country's volcanoes! I hope PHIVOLCS continues to improve and save even more lives in the future. Unfortunately, like Hibok-Hibok, many Philippine volcanoes have their histories and characteristics very unclear. For instance, some volcanoes near Mount Mayon looks very similar to Mount St. Helens, and of course Mount Arayat's crater is breached.
It’s the lack of funding in regards to PHIVOLCS i feel they want to study our volcanoes loosely unfortunately the lack of funding is hindering their effort.
The Philippines have the worst of two worlds: highly explosive volcanoes that produce huge volumes of volcanic ash, and typhoons whose torrential rains turn that vast amount of ash into deadly lahars.
This combination devastated my province, Albay in 2006 when heavy rain brought by Typhoon Reming (Durian) saturated the ash and debris deposits of the slopes of Mayon Volcano causing lahar and mudslide taking the lives of over 600 people, injuring over 2000, and over 400 missing. Rivers were also redirected and transport infrastructure, homes, and livestock destroyed.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge about this volcano in the Philippines, being the reason for the installation of Phivolcs. I will share this video with my friend in the Philippines, wondering if siya knows about this volcano. Thank you, and have a nice day. 👋🏻👴🏼
I think there should be an episode about the Philippine Mobile Belt. For me, it's an interesting geological oddity as from what I learned, the Philippines sits on multiple microplates between the Philippine Sea and Sunda Plates that are colliding with each other every so often. Also, that might be the reason why Camiguin is located far inland from the Philippine Trench, and why Negros has its own volcanic range (That is where Kanlaon is after all).
Love your videos, great job. I have 29 years experience with "Bisaya", the language of the southern Philippines. Just an FYI, "Hibok-hibok" is pronounced "HE-BOOK HE-BOOK" by locals, and the island's name is pronounced "KA-ME-GHIN".
Thanks man, a lot of volcanoes in my country are understudy that's why I can't find info with most of them. One of the volcanoes i'm so interested is Maripipi Island because it's so close to my city, it's potentially active but there nothing much about it. I wish Phivolcs would spend more time studying more volcanoes instead of just Taal, Mayon, Bulusan, Kanlaon and Pinatubo. Biliran island is also interesting, it's just close to Maripipi, but Biliran is composed of numerous volcanoes just like Camiguin Island and Mt. Biliran is the active one also it's the one of the few complex volcanoes we have.
A very cool-sounding name - Hibok-Hibok! I wonder what it means in the local language? I'm guessing something like "bang bang" which would be appropriate for a volcano.
As a Cebuano, I think it's more closely related to the world "hot or bubbling" in English. But then again the word kind of makes sense, there are heaps of hot springs in Camiguin Island. But could also mean "wriggle, squirm, crawl" which I think also make sense, because pyroclastic flows move in that direction(?)
Hibok hibok is nice hiking spot. But I am scared of sudden phreatic eruption. I'm not sure if it happens without being detected by sensitive instruments.
I have read there are more volcanoes than towns on Camiguin. I know a couple of expats that live there and there are a couple of good raw honey producers on the island as well.
The name "Hibok-Hibok" is said to be derived from a Visayan word meaning "to bubble" or "to boil," reflecting the volcanic activity typical of the area. This double term emphasizes the magnitude and frequent activity of the volcano.
Great question @baystated - I have 29 years experience with the southern dialect of the Philippines, called "Bisaya" or "Cebuano". It is very common to have words that repeat, not just in the Philippines, but also next door in Indonesia. Example, in bisaya and indonesian, "anak" means child (think "Anak Krakatoa" - child of Krakatoa). We do not use "anak-anak", but Indonesians do, to indicate plural, "children". In bisaya, we say "mga anak" - children. "Lapu lapu" is the famous Moro leader who killed Magellan. It's a magnifier, to stress a verb, adjective, or even a name, like "Jun Jun" is common". This word, "anak" is a very old word, is it related to "anunaki" haha?
Unsure if the topic has been covered when it comes to the dangers of Mount Shasta. The McCloud River arm of Shasta Lake which is probably the most vital part of Northern California's water infrastructure stems from Mount Shasta. If Shasta were to go then Shasta Lake and the Sacramento Valley's AG water, municipal water, and hydroelectric supply would be in serious jeopardy. That's millions of people not just a few ten thousand surrounding the volcano.
This must be the most remarkable video ever recorded, as it was recorded by couple that went to the Taal volcano only days before it blew up... And this is what they saw, when they swam in the volcano lake... th-cam.com/video/U8AvkiJQK8E/w-d-xo.htmlsi=pOzFOwpuuiLJMnUD
I like the videos too. I think the narrator has worsening sinus problems or lockjaw that is increasingly affecting his speech. On older videos his speech was much clearer.
I want to note that I believe the death toll in the 1951 eruption was heavily underestimated, which is my justification for this video’s title.
Please make a video about the West Valley Fault (an active and potentially dangerous fault line just below the entire region of manila)
Just like every developing country does, eh?

@@ReymuxMusic Mt. Makiling is in his video about the Laguna Volcanic Field, which the volcano is a part of.

i just discovered like 10 hidden, extinct/inactive looking volcanoes using google maps out of curiosity

Thanks for all the hard work on these videos
The Philippines have the worst of two worlds: highly explosive volcanoes that produce huge volumes of volcanic ash, and typhoons whose torrential rains turn that vast amount of ash into deadly lahars.
And then we are stuck between the hammer and the anvil.
And the lahars drying up turn into something as hard as concrete.
And worst people as well. Corrupt people from both public and private sectors
This combination devastated my province, Albay in 2006 when heavy rain brought by Typhoon Reming (Durian) saturated the ash and debris deposits of the slopes of Mayon Volcano causing lahar and mudslide taking the lives of over 600 people, injuring over 2000, and over 400 missing.

@@jantjarks7946 On the bright side, at least you can use those lahars as construction materials.

Love your videos, great job. I have 29 years experience with "Bisaya", the language of the southern Philippines. Just an FYI, "Hibok-hibok" is pronounced "HE-BOOK HE-BOOK" by locals, and the island's name is pronounced "KA-ME-GHIN".
The last syllable, "BOOK" is stressed, it's harder sounding -- not criticizing, it's fine and natural to anglicize the words. :D
I was gonna say this XD. My mom speaks Bisaya and I caught the pronunciation. My OCD caught it 😂

@@content.deleted1 - Thanks for that!
"Hot or bubbling" - very appropriate for a volcano. So is "crawl", relating to the "crawling" of lava flows.
Hibok hibok is nice hiking spot. But I am scared of sudden phreatic eruption. I'm not sure if it happens without being detected by sensitive instruments.
I've lived here for twelve years and didn't even know about this volcano. That's pretty cool it's the reason for philvolcs
I have read there are more volcanoes than towns on Camiguin. I know a couple of expats that live there and there are a couple of good raw honey producers on the island as well.
been thinking about it since Kanlaon erupted but where are the craters for Mt. Mandalagan and Mt. Silay in Negros Island?
I live 12 miles from Taal always interested it this subject matter.
Taal, Hibok-Hibok and Bulusan i believe are the three volcanoes here in the Philippines capable of erupting Rhyolitic magma
What does "Hibok" mean and why is the volcano's name composed of it twice?
The name "Hibok-Hibok" is said to be derived from a Visayan word meaning "to bubble" or "to boil," reflecting the volcanic activity typical of the area. This double term emphasizes the magnitude and frequent activity of the volcano.

The local volcano cool
Ive slept on camiguin island. XP
FINALLY!!!!!
Yes, Camiguin is entirely made up of volcanoes and this fact features highly in their tourism branding. Nice beaches and waterfalls there too.
Unsure if the topic has been covered when it comes to the dangers of Mount Shasta. The McCloud River arm of Shasta Lake which is probably the most vital part of Northern California's water infrastructure stems from Mount Shasta. If Shasta were to go then Shasta Lake and the Sacramento Valley's AG water, municipal water, and hydroelectric supply would be in serious jeopardy. That's millions of people not just a few ten thousand surrounding the volcano.
Fun Fact: There are more volcanoes (7 volcanoes) Than municipalities in Camiguin (5 municipalities)
What a terrible disaster, but at least it resulted in Indonesia starting an agency to monitor it's many volcanoes properly.
Philippines, not Indonesia
@@I.amthatrealJuan Oops! Obviously not paying attention.
I'm sure 50 thousand years ago our ancestors said" Big mountain, spit fire.. DANGEROUS,, run away.. But then.. It might be GOD😅
its where god lives.

I would like this channel if you replace the narrator with someone who can be understood.
It's ok there's plenty of AI channels for you, we'll enjoy actual geologists making videos😊
Turn on subtitles.
There is no separate 'narrator' - Tim (aka GeologyHub) researches, makes and narrates the videos himself
I like the videos too. I think the narrator has worsening sinus problems or lockjaw that is increasingly affecting his speech. On older videos his speech was much clearer.
