It sounds like the eruptions that forged the Valles Caldera were at least twice the size of the 1815 eruption of Mount Tambora. It would be interesting to see if this cataclysm caused a "year without a summer" of its own...
Wonder what it be like if all 3 supervolcanoes in the United State would to erupt. It's cool on how they work as well, but I get bad anxiety from them at the same time.

It would be very interesting, but not too fun to live through!
For a New Mexican I can assure you it probably wont be that interesting
Absolutely fascinating video by the way, thank you.
+Omar Flores Thank you!
Super interesting!
Thought it was sir Edward bailey of British geological survey 50 years earlier in Glencoe Scotland formulated caldera theory
So would those lava domes be where the super eruption if it was a series of eruptions that would merge into a huge one?
briansivley2001 Yes! The Valles Caldera is a similar "super volcano" to Yellowstone.
Valles Caldera: You can't defeat me
Long Valley Caldera: I know but he can
Yellowstone Caldera: Haha volcano goes boom
Where can I find the whole documentary? Thanks :-)
It is available on DVD, but no longer for sale to our knowledge. Maybe on amazon or ebay?

Yikes! That would be devastating.

Hey is a caldera a super volcano? It’s sounds like it’s very powerful.
This particular caldera is not a super volcano, however, there are others (yellowstone) that are.
Anyone else having dreams about a giant eruption?
Me
Looks like a hand holding a heart
There's much more meaning than that to the native people of that area. Look again at that image and you may see something else.
