No one is forcing tourists to go there. People need to use their own brains.
Clearly many have not or choose to be famous if caught out there!
( thrill seekers)
no, goverment should take care of it,, if it open then it is safe or then it means that Iceland goverment tries to poisen tourist ?
Feel it the same. Visitors must not go there. Yes maybe in 800 years😂😂😂.
If they don’t know, how can they know?
@@jggordon9751 well, you and I know, thanks to this channel and others. Info is available to all that want to be informed about anything.
Remember….everything in the world ..is always about the money…..
Money, power and sex. 😊
Of course😂
🦋🇺🇸🙌💯
You are right. Follow the Money👍
Yep
Without those protective berms there wouldn't be much left. But let's ignore all the dangers and enjoy the quick lava flow engulfing it all. It is beautiful and mesmerising seeing all those drone videos, a volcanologist's dream, but it is also nice to be alive to really enjoy the event.. from a safe distance.
Good morning Silki and friends. Why am I not surprised that the BL is open. Money rules.
🦋🇺🇸👋Good Morning Theresa
Once you are in Iceland, you notice that lots of other spa places have been opened and they would probably love to pick up the trade that the Blue Lagoon has.... but they don't have glitzy shops on the high street in Reykjavik, and Blue Lagoon seems to be the default one to book if you fix up your holiday with a tour company. So unless you follow this news closely, you are just going to find the tour company booking Blue Lagoon for you as part of your "specially tailored trip".
The other places don't have the silica mud. I don't understand your point about Reykjavik. There is not any "high street". Do you mean Austurstræti? But there is nothing glitzy on that street. What does it have to do with the Blue Lagoon? Reykjavik has its own geothermal pool - much older than the "new" Blue Lagoon. (btw., the old Blue Lagoon just next to the power plant was free of charge to use. They collected some money for using the lockers, but if a simple changing shed was enough for you, it was for free.
Blue Lagoon is and always has been important for the transiting passengers, it takes only 15-20 minutes to get there from the Keflavik airport, while it takes 1 hour to get to Reykjavik.
For goodness sake, they really do not have a clue. All about the money, not people’s lives x thanks silki
Hell freezes over, the sky is falling in, but the Blue Lagoon will stay open.
Titanic from Iceland :((
lol
Hahahahahahahahahahahaa😂
People are still going to Naples too.
yes I get it but for the BL, one wind change and the toxic volcanic smog is there and it will be 100% as it did in past eruptions
I can't get over their insanity
yes me neither 😥
Buy lots of travel insurance. Great job Silki
😃
thanks for the update
Hi Woody and Silki! 😊
I don't believe nature can be trusted to cooperate with the Blue Lagoon. 🤔 Nature is in charge above people's opinions and has a way of surprising us in any part of our world.
I would NEVER go to the Blue Lagoon. I hate touristy places. I'd prefer to go to a Natural Spring with no modern buildings around.
Thanks Silki for sharing. 😊
God bless you Silki and your beautiful animals.🐎🐈
It seems like every time they open the blue Lagoon in the words of Silki Boof!
Profit over people!
The Blue Lagoon drama continues. It’s gotta be a record how many times they been open and closed
Any truth in the rumor that
Disney owns half interest in Blue Lagoon?
Last time I looked that up was last year , did not see that, some large funds are involved so Disney could be hidden behind them , I will look i to it tomorrow
🦋🇺🇸👍Good Question
That's how Disney bought up land in Florida, under multiple pseudonyms. @@silki24
Unbelievable!
Unbelievable shocking
Asterix would say: they are crazy , the lagoonys. And the government too.😢
GOOOD MORNING . !!!! catchin up and reposting 4 u 2 fb alll news updates .
awesome Teddy , it helps a lot , thank you !!!!
@@silki24 welcome i keep doin it everytime .
BTW, I think you're right about the gasses reaching England, I woke up at 7am this morning with terrible lungs. I'm asthmatic and sensitive to such things as pollen and other particulates in the air.
When I seen your post about the ending I was thinking they can't predict a beginning but they can predict the ending? I do agree after you said it that it does sound like something the Blue Lagoon would pay someone to say. I feel sorry for the workers that even as eruptions are going on have to smile and act like everything is ok!
Who makes the most profit from The Blue Lagoon?
Seriously. The Icelandic citizens?
How could they be doing this again so quickly? Maddness .
Insane. 😮
They are DECIEVERS !!
🍒 on top 👍
Lets see how quickly the land rises again when the new eruption dies down. The magma chamber may very well go: "The reports of my demise have been greatly exaggerated."
Full flow of pippin-hot runny new magma could easily unclog whatever caused it to slow down previously.
The Blue Lagoon needs to replace the letters “o” with two images of crystal balls.🔮 Blue Lag🔮🔮n
😃😃😃👍🏻👍🏻
Shocking!!!!!!!!!!
An old saying: a fool and his folly are not soon parted....what I think of people going to the Blue Lagoon...however, survival is a strong factor to consider.
Iceland lives on the verge of eruption daily. I'm astounded by the massive effort that must be required, to manage lava flow.😮
Kudos to the crews!
If the air is toxic, wouldn’t Blue lagoon be toxic
It would be interesting to figure out how quickly all that water would flash to steam if a small fissure opened up in the farthest pool of the resort.
did they open the power plant too??
Imagine fear.just listen.
Wind needs to change a little bit? It has to change to the opposite direction!
Islanders are used to living with the volcanos. If it was as you present, they would let tourists go to visit the eruption site!
If it were safe, Blue Lagoon would not include "we are not responsible for your health and life" in their booking conditions. Of course, these rules are hard to find on their website, but they are there.
It’s all about the money. They don’t care about the people’s health.
If you live or work in Iceland, then your concern should be making a living ! How many jobs are still at the Blue Lagoon?
"Response Level Lowered as Volcanic Eruption Stabilises" ~Iceland Review
"Overnight stays in Icelandic hotels and other accommodations were 491,000 in April, .... That is a 13% drop" ~Iceland Review
Unbelievable But it shows, no matter where. A human being life is worth nothing no more.
their GDP means grave digging process
Nice and warm and ready to go!
now whats going on to day in grindavik ? a few hours ago
Meanwhile the last tourist has to know that the situation in Reykjanes Peninsula is still going on with this volcanism.😂
It's rediculous really the math used is first grade mandatory school
You know, the blue lagoon will stop reopening when is no more blue lagoon...just saying 😊
Right on!
Eruptive fissure now to suddenly open in the middle of the Blue Lagoon?
It’s possible
Hey Hootie and the gang!! How goes it😂😂😂
I'm set to visit the Blue lagoon at the end of this month - hope that it'll still be open 😳
Sky Lagoon is said to be very beautiful and safer
🤑🤑🤑
Sooo... hypothetically... what happens if the water in the lagoon starts gettng hot faster than the people can get out? Or the escape route gets cut off..? Who will take responsibilty for any casualties?
No one. Their booking conditions include that clause.
LOL! Blue Lagoon . . . . . . ..!
These people making these decisions and making these statements are just ridiculous! They know nothing of what is going to happen with the earth. So sad.
Hi Money... Money. That's it.
🦋🇺🇸👍
Pressured or bribed 🤔
🌋
I guess they like their bath very hot!😂
Pressured or $$
Kīlauea Eruption imminent???
the earthquake swarm looks like it
How stupid are the people who are going for a bath there?
Not so much stupid as having "information tunnel vision". What I mean most people tend to only notice and get information that directly affects them. So they may know about a local sale at the supermarket, whatever the main scandals making the headlines nationally, family concerns, etc. They won't be aware of what isn't a national headline news like a volcanic eruption in another country. So they will book a vacation without really thinking about it. Most would assume that if a volcano was erupting nearby posing any possible slight threat at all a place wouldn't be open for business.
Very, very stupid.
I was shocked how may layers to it, multiple Yellowstone's on top of each other on a major fault line...Shushhhh...Shut them up!....
And yet you created a thumbnail to make it look like the eruption was close to the blue lagoon. (??????)
it is ! very close
the volcano is less then 1 mile from Blue Lagoon. It is on a hill, currently with lava creeping towards the fancy resort
Hi Silki time for the Police Chief to be sued, along with Dottie`r by those Visitors affected & by Grindavik Resisidents, the Plant Employees.
They have to comply, but somehow The Blue Lagoon excempt?
If I were someone, who unknowingly stayed there, whose money, she kept, whole there is danger & had to Emergency Evacuate, I would sue. If a contract is in place, to go at your own risk, that's possibly arguable in Court, because of lack of obvious Information on their Site.
Let's face it, they have a monopoly in that area.
Perhaps the Country, needs to push their other attractions, to match the attraction of TBL!
She has to accept responsibility💯👏😅🫶🙏🌹🌹🌹
I think it's just stupiditiy. I mean its crazy
I don’t think that the Blue Lagoon being open is funny at all. The operators need to be called out. It’s possible that the Blue Lagoon’s short term money grubbing may hurt them in the long term.
The eruption that started on May 29th is a big deal because it was unlike the previous events. It was enormously more violent. The amount of lava it expelled so quickly was daunting. And the huge explosions when the magma was in contact with the water table is more than worrisome.
I see the Blue Lagoon as the Titanic-sailing along, ignoring warnings and realities, and destined to hit a proverbial volcanic iceberg.
If a volcanic eruption occurs and it hurts or kills guests and staff at the Blue Lagoon-the owners should be thrown into the caldera of the next volcano.
Shame on the Icelandic government for allowing the Blue Lagoon to operate during major eruptions 3 miles away.
Mother Nature is just waiting for the opportunity to shut the resort down-and at that point the price to stay open may be paid for in needlessly lost lives.
🤑🤑🤑
We hear NOTHING about this in Denmark! Why rely on just this area? There are MANY beautiful areas in Island. Thank you, Silki., for your great work. Please ignore the trolls, and please stay safe!
Because it's the one tourists care about
Not many places come pre-heated perfectly free of charge. I say free but time it wrong and you could be become boiled until completely tender.
I just read Iceland news. The said this new massive eruption is a "localized" event that has stabilized. Basically, there is no danger, and ICELAND NEWS added a link to the Blue Lagoon resort.
It definitely sounds like..er…money is changing hands. Allegedly.
This is bringing the country into disrepute - is there no National Safety Executive ? Nature is seriously impeding BL plans to float the company on the Stock Exchange - are they trying to reassure potential investors by keeping open in the face of incredible danger to guests and staff ?
I went in its early days (fell for hype as many do) - there are numerous nicer but less known places to go which are natural and authentic rather than power plant overspill in an artificial pool.
So sad for Grindavik’s people and local businesses who have to operate under different rules.
How do the Board and the policemen sleep at night ?
you are so right , I don't think the police is responsible, I believe they are being hammered and pressured to give the BL the green light, the big funds and investors don't care about lives at risk at all
Hi Silki 😊 I hope the other emergency services and sciences will step up their support for the police in enforcing common sense. Visitors in this peak season are like innocent ‘lambs to the slaughter’. It’s not only gas it’s the huge and building lava lake just the other side of the mountain as viewed on Isak’s live stream last night. Could go whoosh.
If the Icelandic establishment wasn’t part of the circus, there would be a full & proper investigation of this place. Putting workers & customers and rescue teams in potential danger? Despicable. All for dirty, dirty gold.
Crazy. ‘Nuff said.
The Health and Safety Department forgot to send Iceland the memo many years ago.
Hello Sili the wind changes direction all the time and can also be blowing one way yet it will go round a mountain or hill side and it will blow for a while in a different direction there is a tower block in Leeds i think it is where the wind hits the tower block and increases to over 100mph and will also blow at 90 degrees to the main wind and you only need to be in the gas for 30 seconds and you in trouble and how are they going to know what way the gas is coming from are they putting windsocks all round so people can see what way to go it must be like here in the uk police do not go out and get the criminals as they pay the police every week so chiefs of police make a good some of money each week so maybe the man in charge of there licence to operate is also being paid of to let them open even if they gave him £5,000 a week it is nothing on what they making each day anyway thank you again for the info and update please keep safe and well and wishing you a wonderful Sunday and coming new week and also new month
Sadly it is like this 😢 Thanks John, have a great rest of the weekend as well
My brother just got back from Iceland about 3 days before this latest eruption happened. You saw a lot of beautiful things in Iceland he did not go to the Blue lagoon but however they were calling him or texting him I can't remember what he said to see if you would want to come there and stay the night for the day whatever it was. They must be really desperate for money if they're calling a people that have other plans there to come and stay at their facility. You're still having eruption in the Fisher so why are they reopening when the wind can change directions at any time and blow that smoke in gas towards the Blue lagoon. That makes me not to want to ever go there.
they called him ? Where did they get his number from ? ot seems they are really desperate 😡😡😡😡
@@silki24 I do not know, maybe there is a file kept on every tourist that lands on the island. He did have bookings at various hotels so I would not be surprised if they passed around that information.
Him and his wife said It was a beautiful island and they enjoyed the trip.
That’s really shocking given that the eruption is ongoing and really, who knows what could happen tomorrow. They are playing Russian Roulette with the customers lives and so far, they have been winning. Their luck will run out one day. If you play Russian Roulette long enough, you will lose one day.
Hi Silki from Newfoundland, Canada. I think that The Blue Lagoon should stay closed until it's safe for the tourists to stay there.
Yes I agree
I think the only thing that'll stop them reopening will be the access roads being coveted in lava
Iceland will build new roads. Blue Lagoon greed is more powerful than this volcano. It won't stop until a lava flow buries the Blue Lagoon.
Pompei AD79....Viking style....👣👣👣👣👣👣👣👣👣👣👣👣
the wind just shifted towards the power plant. The Resort is packed. Next step... Blue Lagoon turns the gas alarms off for the day.
Iceland put stop signs on the hot lava. Tourists have the right of way.
😁😁😁😁😁
🦋🇺🇸👋😮wow 😮…. Good Morning Silki & chat… They are slowly killing off People 😢… Thks Silki have a Blessed Day 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️
you too ❤️❤️❤️🌷🌷🌷
Greedy I would say...and...what are they hiding. In my opinion I think is the only reason they would want to keep Blue Lagoon open.....seriously why?
Draaaaaamaaaaa uuuuuuhhhhh……😂❤
Blue Lagoon open already? It's not just the cherry on top, it's all the sprinkles!! 🤣🤣
Silki…..sigh. Of course. Are there other comparable resorts anywhere? I know they advertise its uniqueness but do we know the chemical composition of the water? I still want to know the families involved including the ones doing the advertising, banking and suppliers….names and networks not hiding behind corporate identities…..any genealogists reading?
I guess dead tourists don't talk- but their family will. Stupidity is not only found in the Pozzuli/ Naples area it seems.
But they will build a new blue lagoon in a safer spot. I hope.🇮🇸❤
For my opinion, they will Do the same on and on again, als long as it works. But I think, some day, something Bad will happen at the blue lagoon. The blue lagoon does not only hide something if they do not mention the gas on their side, in case for safety, they just ahm- lying "the blue from the sky". I am wondering if we will hear about an incident, if something will happen.
No disrespect but they can open it but those with common sense won’t go..
They don’t give refunds so they’re going to keep opening and collecting that money whether they have to constantly shut down or not.
I guess gasmasks are falling from sky if necessary😅
Absolutely obserd!
Tourist money😊
Siliki do you live on Iceland?
Lagoonies !!!😂
I think they should build a 16 -18 m defense wall about 500m radius around the Blue Lagoon. That way the lagoonies could look out upon lava rocks, be encircled to beat off Indian attack, and rename the site 'White island revisited" so that everyone knows what's going on. Or perhaps Iceland's leaders could offer the vacant houses at Grindavick to anxious Italians from Naples way? 😅🤣😂🤠 And yes, I do agree with Rudi.
Omg that's hilarious😂😂😂 maybe that would do the trick!
My daughter's Shih Tzu, agrees with Rudi too 😅
💯👏🫶🍾
Huugeebugeeboo!? 3 studges back for dinner???
How sad! They obviously don’t care about their customers well being. Thanks for your reporting!
AGREE!
Customers or the staff and what about the ones that would need to rescue these people. Shocking
See no problem the Blue lagoon could have stayed open through the whole eruption. It is just a baby volcanoe. Nicely going to sleep. Someone is in la La Land.
I guess you are their preferred customer 😃👍🏻
@@silki24 You are so funny I was being sarcastic. Lol.
I think the whole of Iceland depends on the cash that the blue lagoon brings in. If there was no blue lagoon this would not be such a problem. Money is more important then lives. What a shame. Thank you silki. 😊😊😊
There are other hot spring spas in Iceland.
I wonder if it is an economic incentive rather than an economic pressure?
