  • Volcanoes may be crucial to life on earth, but that doesn't mean that they aren't deadly natural time-bombs set to explode at any moment. How do we detect these life changing events before they can occur and what happens to the people around the eruption?

    For the first time in 20 years, Sweet Home High School, in Oregon, had a marching band. Yay! With that marching band came parades and competitions.
    On May 18th, 1980, early, in the morning, the Sweet Home High School marching band was heading to Victoria, BC, for a Queen's Birthday celebration. The route we took was Interstate 5, from Oregon, Washington and to the BC ferry. Along the way that morning, something happened....... As we were heading north on I-5, on our school buses, we felt an earthquake start! The drivers pulled the buses over, to wait out the earthquake. Then, we heard what sounded like an atomic bomb going off! Like, WTF!! We all looked to the east, and all we saw was the huge plume of smoke, rising into the air. We couldn't see the actual mountain, because of terrain and trees between us and it. We had NO clue what had just happened, and this was in the time before cell phones, so yeah, we were a bit freaked out. The drivers got on CB radios and eventually we found out the volcano erupted.
    I'm still not sure how the decision to keep going was made, but that is what we did. We continued north to BC, played the celebration, and proceeded to head back to Sweet Home, OR. Or....we tried. We only got as far as central Washington. The bridges over I-5 had been washed away, and we were effectively trapped on the north side of them. What we SAW was surreal. The areas we'd just traveled thru a couple of days before were unrecognizable. Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING, was covered in a thick layer of ash. The whole world, had gone grey. In some places, the ash was a few feet deep, and snow plows had come thru to clear the roads, creating mountains of ash along the roadside. It stank! Horribly! And it was everywhere, on everything, IN everything.... there was no getting away from it.
    They had to put us up in hotels in Centralia for 3 days, before we could finally get a route back into Oregon. Along the way, the landscape was from another planet. NOTHING was as it had been on our way North. Now, it was all covered in soft mounds of grey. The trees, plants, hills, roads, all of it... grey and lifeless. It was incomprehensible to us, the change. It wasn't until we were getting into Vancouver, WA that things started to be normal again.
    About 4 or 5 years later, a miraculous thing started to happen. The vegetation started to grow back! From a dead lifeless landscape, all of a sudden, things wanted to GROW! And grow NOW! Plant life started to come back, and it came back with a vengeance! What was dead and grey exploded into green, every shade of green you can imagine, and some new shades, too! It was crazy how fast, and lush everything grew. That area is still amazing to drive thru, as the ash was such incredible fertilizer, it supercharged the growth of everything wherever it fell. From death..... LIFE! Crazy!

    If the Lahar doesn't get you, the Pyroclastic Flow will. However if you live on the Big Island of Hawai'i, Kilauea will send Lava your way, sooner or later. The longest major eruption occurred from January 1983 through September 2018.

      @Pisacha Nation in 1992 I lost everything in hurricane Andrew. I couldn't even find the remnants of any homes in my neighborhood. And that included the street signs. Once I got my insurance settlement I decided to move to the Big Island. There were great buys in Pahoa, Leilani, and around the area. I decided on Kamuela, far away from both Mauna Loa and Kilauea. Good decision because the area of both Leilani and Pahoa were overtaken by the lava flows of 2018.

    Mr. Narrator. You got that wrong. Hawaii's lava is much LESS viscous than the Ring of Fire lava. If it was MORE viscous, then the Hawaiian volcanoes would be lofty stratovolcanoes with MUCH more explosive eruptions.

    I went a little bit down in the crater of Mount Hekla in Iceland once..it was really hot down there, all the rocks were hot..a few years later there was a big eruption there. Close call there, haha..missed it with just a few years!😊(In the 2010-event, I had to sleep on the floor in the basement on Suvarnabhumi Airport outside of Bangkok for three or four days:)

    Pinatubo (famous and heavily documented VEI-6): barely mentioned. Tambora (Year Without A Summer, most recent VEI-7 eruption, cause of one of the worst famines in recorded history): unmentioned. Lake Toba (arguably the most explosive eruption to ever occur, uncontested largest VEI-8 in the past 20 million years, buried everything from Sumatra to Pakistan in ash): unmentioned.
    Additionally, St. Helens was mentioned but the famous photo sequence of the lateral blast was unused. 4/10 video, informative but underwhelming. Good luck with the fundraiser.

      1. These documentaries are most of the time a couple of years old.
      2. It is better that they mention less known ones, because otherwise you will be bored with information you might already know....
      3. For ST. Helens as you mentiont it is a PHOTO sequence aka not a video. Photos especially photo sequences can be quite annoying to use and could have also been in a different format than normal
