Volcan de Fuego - INSANE Drone Footage of HUGE Eruption

INCREDIBLE close-range footage of a powerful eruption of Fuego the morning of 16 March, 2023. THOUSANDS of large rocks flew right past my drone and rained down upon it in the blast. I cannot believe I still have my drone.

DAMMMMNNNNNN ALEX, my god that was incredible.

[@underwhelmedmusic]

This is the best footage i’ve seen of a volcanic eruption. Really crazy that the rocks missed the drone. Beautiful footage, good job!

[@JimEdds]

It's a big sky but if I flew that for sure a rock would down my drone. Cherish those shots when everything goes perfect and Nature gives you a Nugget. Hope to see more over the years.

[@thomasreagan3054]

Well done! Right place, right time, right attitude - you didn't panic!

[@MBroam]

REALLY glad your drone did not get hit by those rocks, this is some epic footage!

[@ruben3024]

I have been at the fuego a year ago. Ever since I cant stop watching footage of the volcano. Thanks for the upload.

[@GehkGekhe]

Thank you Mr Spahn for showing this to us. On the two of your channels a person can see much more than on twenty other all together.

[@lisadimmitt1456]

Worth the exhaustion getting this event recorded and your name on it. Well done!

[@JonathanPulleyWCW]

Absolutely amazing! It is a miracle that the drone didn't get hit by one of those rocks!

[@andrewmacklin3204]

Simply my favourite video of all time. Thank you for re-invigorating my dream to see an active volcano, Alex

[@ExtremAtmosfera_BrunoGoncalves]

Awesome! How close were that rocks falling from the drone?!! Crazy! eheh!! Good job!! Congrats for the awesome footage!

[@pedroalarcon2107]

Damn this is Amazing! How close was your drone? Did you crop the footage? I’m going to Guatemala next month and I want to fly my drone in there but I’m afraid that a rock hits my drone haha,
Your video is spectacular, great job!

[@denezrgmc5456]

Absolutely incredible.

[@shuhnelkuh]

*chefs kiss*

[@erickkirchner501]

Wow! Wow! Wow!

[@markonebird]

Oh my gosh! That bird of yours just flew through a shotgun blast! Unbelievable! 😮

[@zelkuta]

Nice stuff man! did you get any raw audio of the eruption ?

[@spahn711]

Thank you! Sadly, very little. Drones don't capture audio, and the audio that I could capture from far away was mostly muted by wind most of the time I was there.

[@zelkuta]

@@spahn711 Aww that's a shame. Regardless the footage is amazing!

[@kimn8272]

Absolutely incredible!!!
