Its not enough to just talk about it in lessons and in essays. You need to see it to see the true scale of such an event. Now I truely understand why I love Geography. This is great footage and I hope you dont mind if I show this in my lessons! ;P
Look at 6:05 and you can see a human male face almost directly in middle of screen. This is if your holding your phone up right vertical. The clarity and detail of it is incredible
I thought the same thing ... dusty landslides ... but I think the clue is the night footage. Inside all that 'rolling dust' is actually tons of red-hot rock and blobs of magma. Notice how the landslides seem to boil and explode, often perpendicular to the slope or even opposite the direction of the fall? I'm guessing that's it, pyroclastic flows can be just blasts of boiling rock and magma which are so hot they kind of sustain themselves.
Residents near Merapi said that each stone that fell was different in size, some were the size of a truck and even Merapi threw volcanic rocks the size of an adult buffalo. 
What you're actually seeing is a volcanic dome built up by very viscous (slow-flowing, 'sticky') lava, collapsing into avalanches of hot gasses and rocks. It's clearly visible at 4:58 and 5:25; along with how the flows are created as the dome collapses.
with the temperature of 600'C and move with average speed of 200 Km perhours....surely this is the perfect companion to deliver anything in its way to death....
LOL how everyone is almost watching it like it's nothing important. Of course because it's so common there I guess. Hard to imagine as a person from the Netherlands, where everything is totally without vulcanos. :) And the halo around the sun at 2:55 is also very nice (has nothing to do with volcanism).
Can I have permission to use this video in adaptive courseware that I am building for a geologic disasters class at Northern Arizona University, Flagstaff, AZ? It is an excellent example of pyroclastic flows that will enhance student learning!
Buy it. Pyroclastic flows come in many forms. This is most deffinately a pyroclastic flow. It's deffinately not ejecta. This is a dome collapse...one of the main sources of pyro flows.
the man with megaphone told people to leave Babadan observatory post immediately because the pyroclastic cloud (wedhus gembel) seems to flow toward Babadan
Maybe the best way to show it is for you to look up the Mt Unzen dome collapse that killed Maurice and Katia Kraft back in 91. That was a spectacular dome collase, sadly fatal for about 40 odd people. Pyroclastic flows don't necessarily originate from a collapsing erruption column. Look at Mt St Helens 1980 for another example (though that was classed as a pyroclasti surge). Hope this helps.
@ximmise i dont think you appreciate the scale of those pyroclastic flows. Not counting that you would suffocate on the ash, and the large boulders that are caught in the flow. Pyroclastic flows can be upp to 1000 degrees centigrade and move at up to 700 km per hour. so yeah you can definently die from it, and unforunently if you get cught in one, it might take a few seconds of intense pain before you die:( its not pretty
@gramikka I know, right? The sarcasm-challenged masses make me chuckle, bunches. I guess since sarcasm isn't monosyllabic, it is something that is easily lost on them:P
Sudah lah merapi nya terbantut karna eruption nya yang lalu - awas lava nya keluar turun actives lava panas seperti air - tiba di bawa sudah keras/ dingin sedikit agar pelahan - tetapi itu udah di kampung 2 .....
Those are the signs of the Great Eruption of Mount Merapi in 2010 (The signs have been seen since 2009).

very clear, the night-view enables to understand the phenomenon

@whatfruit up to 800 degrees C if you are within a short distance and it's a large eruption.

How smart they must be to do such filming in that distance in such event.

about the size of 1 or 2 cars I believe

what you got in your bowl?
Anyone know what SIDE of the mountain that is on? Which side is least inhabited?
its summit and the pyroclastic flow area
The heat of that smoke is about 600 degress!!

if you breath a pyroclastic flow in it would vaporise you organs so who ever was recording this took one hell of a risk!x

Oh iya di kirain 2010
Can't they make molten lava that doesn't produce so much smoke and ash so we can see the lava flows better at night?
