Four At Once: Volcano Quartet Erupts On Kamchatka

anavictoriasaavedra writes "A unique show is taking place on Kamchatka these days: Four separate but nearby volcanoes are erupting simultaneously on the Russian peninsula. A Moscow film crew has produced an awe-inspiring 360-degree video of the natural fireworks." The video is well worth watching and panning around in. There are also a bunch of high-res still photo panoramas.

    Is it a good idea to fly around an active volcanoe with the helicopter door open? Aren't there generally toxic gases about?

    Well, it is Russia.

    They're probably safer having the window open; those potato-and-vodka farts can be pretty damn toxic themselves.

    Is it bad that all I'm wondering about when I watch the video is how they made the camera's mount invisible?

      not nearly as bad as me wondering why they filmed the helicopter and not the volcanoes for around 2 minutes before I realized you can move the camera.

      Computers are my forte.
