    Cool Man *jumps* into an Exploding Volcano


    ....well not realy. He goes down slowly and carefully with all the safe gear:



    Sam Cossman and George Kourounis with volcanic pioneers Geoff Mackely and Brad Ambrose become among the first explorers to step foot inside the worlds most dangerous and inaccessible volcano, Marum Crater. More people have visited the moon than the firey bottom of this spectacular and deadly location.

    I must say they are very lucky something didnt go wrong. Stil i find it insane. (the inside of vulcano is not realy safe to climb)
    I also wonder how the plastic camera didnt melt (unless they are using a super expensive one).
    Don't sweat the details!!!

    A better title would be "Man stands on the very edge of the crater filled with molten magma"

    Volcanologists knowing their volcano and some very good camera trickery (focus, zoom etc.) make this look spectacular. But it's nowhere near as insane as the title suggests. Only reason I'm not calling clickbaiting is because the video is actually worth watching.

    (there are tons of people who walk on molten lava and stand near active volcanos, I remember seeing videos from Hawaii and I believe the Aetna? Might be mistaken with the last one...)

    I am 100% you cant walk on molten lava. Unles you are a jedi.
    Standing near is nothing. Those people went too the source.

    However some people are using molds and they pick up a magma and put it into them. Then they leave them there to cool off. They return for this items later.

    I admit I may have exaggerated a bit, not quite on purpose... for me this is "walking on molten lava" although it's not molten really...

    He didn't drop the ring.

    We're doomed.

    Whilst it looks cool,that's just stupid... we should all know by now (provided the deaths) that this could kill you.

    People have done and will continue to do dangerous things for simply being able to say "I did that." It's just a fact of the human condition.

    The thing I take away most from this video is this...

    helicopters are unholy machines.
    Get a grip man! It's CHEESE!

    I was expecting a bungee or base jump into the lava with a swift extraction, somewhat disappoint.

    I always have the same feeling, I wonder what the texture feels like.

    Feels like burning and your skin melting off...that's my guess.

    Probably not for very long, though. I would imagine the nerve endings would die pretty rapidly.

    He most likely got as close as he could without dying from the heat. Pretty cool though, sounds like a blast!
