When you think of a volcano, what’s the first thing that comes to mind? Streams of red, steaming-hot lava pouring over the sides? Dark clouds of ash rising high into the sky? Maybe you think of a relaxing hot spring? Well, we all imagine one thing: a cone-shaped mountain looming over the horizon. But it can be as green and lush as any other mountain! At the top, of course, there’s a giant hole. Like an opening that goes all the way down… Inside, there’s lava and gases being pushed outside. Lava is so hot that if you were standing at the top of the volcano and looked down, your face would feel as red as the color of that liquid rock oozing out! A volcanic eruption never comes without consequences for us. And I’m not just talking about people living nearby. The impacts are usually felt on a global scale too! For example, planes can’t fly for a while because of the blanket of ash released in the air. But what if there were never any volcanoes at all? Would Earth still be the same?

A volcano that lets out blue flame and electric blue lava - and it's not something odd out of imagination. It's a real volcano situated in Indonesia. Unfortunately, you can see this mesmerizing sight only at night. But you can smell it all day long. In this video we're heading on a journey across the strangest parts of our planet. Unique natural phenomena, unusual plants and unexplainable structures. Wanna take a look?

The 1883 eruption of Mount Krakatoa caused massive destruction with ash and smoke leading to a dramatic temperature drop and a tsunami that destroyed ships and towns. The lighthouse keeper survived and warned others of the danger. Many casualties resulted from tsunamis and volcanic mudflows, not just the eruption itself. The eruption also had long-lasting climate effects, causing global temperatures to drop for several years. Let's look at this and other natural events that have changed our planet. #brightside Animation is created by Bright Side. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Music from TheSoul Sound: https://thesoul-sound.com/ Listen to Bright Side on: Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD...

The destruction of Pompeii in 79 AD is famous for being caused by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, but it wasn’t just the volcano itself that wiped out the city. What really did the most damage were the intense clouds of hot gas and ash, called pyroclastic flows, that swept through the city. These flows moved incredibly fast, destroying everything in their path and suffocating people instantly. Many of Pompeii's residents had already evacuated when the eruption began, but others stayed behind and didn’t survive. Buildings were buried under tons of ash, which preserved the city for centuries. Today, Pompeii is a snapshot of Roman life frozen in time, but it's a reminder of the deadly power of nature. #brightside Animation is created by Bright Side. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Music from TheSoul Sound: https://thesoul-sound.com/ Check our Bright Side podcast on Spotify and leave a positive review! https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD...

Chinese scientists recently discovered an unusual crystal on the Moon. They found out that this crystal contains an element that can literally replace nuclear fuel. These crystals were formed as a result of volcanic activity, just like some garnets on the Earth. And yep, the place where they discovered these crystals also suffered from volcanoes... 1.2 billion years ago. Are they dangerous for us down on Earth, or could we make good use of them?
