1. its a rich country, doesnt matter

2. It's nature doing its thing, building new land. Humans call this a "disaster" when it destroys their stuff that they decided to drop on the land in the growth path of an active volcano. That's funny.

3. Have all the pets been rescued?

4. Russia grieves with the victim

5. Nature telling mankind to hold its beer.

6. Having a bunker won’t save you, it will only trap you underneath the lava rock

7. Hard to believe that the lava solidified at exactly this point, no further movement. The rest of this town was so lucky.

8. Oh noes where will we have our Eurovison song contest now?

9. Tbh pretty cool to say your home got destroyed by a volcano

10. There are so many news outlets reporting that the town has been destroyed. There are a few buildings burned, but that's all.

11. Just give it time – lava does not sleep

12. I'm so sorry for the people that lost their homes. I'm also relieved that more were not destroyed, It's interesting how the lava just stopped. Praying, this is all over with soon. 🙏❤️But afraid there are future fissures that open.

13. they had ample time to build huge earth swales to divert the flow and they did nothing

14. Eventually the earth will eradicate us like any invasive virus… it has already begun. earth is 4.5 billion years old, man maybe 300,000 years… our country, not yet 300 years…. Roman Empire/republic 1000 years. Humans are nothing more than a rumor in geologic time.

15. That actually brings tears to my eyes.

16. I feel bad for people that lost their homes or livelihoods, but why build their in the first place and why would anyone ever rebuild their. I live in Florida and it's the and thing for people who build on or close to the beach. It's just a matter of time before a hurricane hits and severely damages or destroys the homes.

17. There hasn't been any volcanic activity in this area for 800 years.

    It's annoying seeing how often people ask why someone would live so close to a volcano.

    Answer: because there hasn't been one there for the last eight centuries! 🙄

18. 도심 외곽지역에 지반약한곳을 택하여 일부러 자극을 좀 주는 것도 그나마 피해를 최소화 할 수 있다면 좋은 방법이 되지 않을까 생각해봄과 동시에 다른 유럽지역은 극심한 한파로 애먹는거 같더군요..

    볼케이노가 분명이 자연재해중 심한편에 속하지만 아이슬랜드를 그래도 좀 더 따스히 해주는 이득을 주는 재해가 되길 기도합니다..
    영상으로 보여지는 주택가를 더이상 덮치진 않았으면 좋겠네요 🙏🙏🙏

19. This reminds me back in 2018 when Mount Kilauea erupts and the lava destroy the houses and now the lava in Grindavik is doing the same thing like Mount Kilauea did.

20. Full of lava, man

21. It's not engulfing the town. It's destroyed two houses. Does noone check the titles of these videos?

22. ij has

23. Allahu Ekber .
