I spent 5 days on the Big Island. Only 4 hours at the volcano park. There is a lot to do besides volcanos. In fact, the opposite-side of the island had far-less rain while I was there. Beaches were beautiful.
wjatube when the lava lands we blow up!!!! Your lava is not as dangerous!# evacuate that side of the island. It's createding a new mouth right next to the coast! I can feel it.
wjatube mount st Helena sell's heat t the entire state of calarado. From her steam year around especially during winter. She heats every house & building in calarado state. But she lives here with me in California.
wjatube tell the fire goddess I said do what it takes !! I demand my Hawaii natural barrier coral reef back!! Then maybe I'll come see you again. # blow baby! Blow..! Baby.
Another good update. Thanks a bunch for keeping us updated so frequently! Hope you all get good sleep, and eat well. Heaven knows we have some terrific food here in the islands.
If you own property and it gets covered with lava flow, are you still responsible for it? Do you have to pay taxes? can you eventually build on it again.? How does the insurance industry view the loss of a home due to lava flow? Would be important to know.
small footprint. no lava insurance, unfortunately. In fact, all the land the lava touches, That was previously theirs, is no longer theirs: it’s the governments.
If lava burns your house down fire insurance covers it. If the ground breaks underneath your house earthquake insurance covers you. I was reading the ground is super cheap like 10K for a ocean view lot. But insurance premiums must be super high
From what I can tell insurance will cover the cost of a home or the property, but it will not pay for lava and ash removal. I would keep the land, Ohia trees will break up the lava and bring in new vegetation fast. But I do believe in a lot of cases the land goes back to the government, but you get a nice check to move on.
My parents (now divorced) had their honey moon in Hawai'i around 1989 right after an eruption (according to my mom). She used to tell me about going and seeing the lava flows and it always fascinated me, I would love to see it. That said, from NC, stay safe Lelani.
Since a lot of people make their living from tourism and Hawaii is a really big island with only a small part affected by the eruption, telling people not to change their plans to visit is logical. There are some who think that this is greed, but what would you do if feeding your family and paying your bills depended on tourists? Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is closed up on the volcano, but the facilities in Hilo are open and the rangers are still giving educational lectures there. People can learn a lot about the volcanoes that make up the Big Island and the ones on the other islands by attending those lectures. You can still hike on Mauna Loa, Mauna Kea and on Haleakala, over on Maui, if you want to hike on a volcano. The views from up there are incredible and well worth the visit. Kilauea is less than 1/5 of the island and isolated by Mauna Kea from the North Shore. It looks bad for the northeast tip of the island, but that is less than 1/10th of the whole island.
Allyssa Rae A. Only the idiots are the ones yelling greed greed greed. Anyone that has a brain will know better, no tourism will really hurt them, and there's plenty of area nowhere near the eruption.
We are Aussies who booked 7 days in Leilani estate 8 months ago and now changed to northeast of Big Island at Honakaa. Not cancelling no way. I am looking forward to a day trip see lava -what a buzz.
A good report would be having the USGS Geophysicist outline the layers and makeup, old flows and possible lava tubes and crunch the numbers with 3D presentations of where the earthquakes have hit in the layers. Would be nice to know they have worked out what they are figuring by being labeled physicists not educated guessers.
That's quite the sight - really hope tourists aren't significantly scared off by thinking that this eruption somehow affects the whole state or something... though part of me does envy the potential for picking up gorgeous land or tourism at lower prices because of people's irrationality.=/
how do you git a permit to build? real easily apparently. it is a shame to see those peoples homes burnt up, the odds just caught up with them. glad no lives have been lost in this.
Hawaii is really growing. This should really be a boost for Hawaii economy. Tourism for now and later all the new home construction later. Think of all the new homes they can build on the new lava fields.
CHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 💪🌋 Koa ka aina!!! Love da aina, good stuff Tutu Pele..she say too many permanent tourist so gotta make big the land for some kalo patches and fo da keikes. Plus Maui been acting out yeah? But in all seriousness i hope the people are safe...let the land return to its natural state to build a new stronger aina.
you can rebuild a home after a earthquake, flood, tornado, hurricane, but you cannot go back home that's been caked over by what could be a lava bed. may your loved ones be safe, god bless you Hawaii.
I’m loving this. This volcano erupts every 100-120 years... BUT Hawaii approved this neighborhood because they were assured that the volcano had been dormant for almost a hundred years, and besides who can predict lava flow? Hello? Downhill.
I hope that people will be safe before any kind of serious action but.... This vulcano activity (what, where and how its doing) is very interesting to follow and watch.
This is the stuff we learned I school about prehistoric days. Crazy crazy.... i wonder if a bill collector calls and ask why you haven’t paid, if it is a good excuse that lava burned up my mail.
I'm curious if anyone knows how this is cleaned up? Like can the lava rock be easily broken up with a backhoe and cleared off the road? I mean I know the roads are destroyed anyway and will have to be rebuilt due to the cracking, but do they clear the lava or just go over it? I assume it's not like soil that can just be graded away.
Those fissures are cutting the lower end of the island in half like a plasma cutter. New land my arse, everything south of the fissures is going to slump into the ocean.
Charlotte Cannon, where do you live? Are you on the mainland? Can we come live with you? Or, can you imagine walking away from all you know and love, to move somewhere you don't want to go?
ladykiri42 --- Im the one whose made numerous calls to get a few families rescued, as well as posted phone numbers to those asking for help. Ive been in multiple state of emergency catastrophic situations myself. And I can tell you this. Nothing matters more than yours and your families lives. Nothing. That being said. My post primarily is in response to the truth, facts regarding the local officials and professionals i.e. volcanologist, having ample time to prepare per the comment in the video stating they had no time to prepare. Do not lecture me in regards to my post. Yes, I have been in such an event. And yes I left every time. Monetary or material "THINGS" are not worth losing a life over. And I really do not care what you think about my expressing this. Not everyone will share in your decision to stay and risk your life, your families lives for THINGS that can be replaced. This is simply my opinion as a person who has been in far more than one catastrophic state of emergency event. You may feel differently. That is fine. But do not take it out on others who clearly are worried, concerned for the people there, but are responding to the video itself being viewed, as well as tbe crises there. One tbing I have never done throughout the crises my family survived, because we left, is take it out on others. So check yourself please. Because youve jumped in me before in other posts, other videos. And quite frankly, Ive sent you phone numbers for help too, what.....some 7 days ago? Only to be verbally abused on posts. And that it wrong of Hawaiians to be ugly to those of us concerned and only trying to help. We hope you all survive this. We check repeatedly updates everyday, all day. We send our prayers and empathy. But my expressing my response to tbe video and crises there does not validate a free pass to abuse. My spouse was the Director over Emergency Preparedness and specialized as a Medical Doctor with 3 subspecialties, as well as a scientist, a chemist, a biologist for 31 long years. And worked 49 years total in the field. This is how and why I knew who to contact to get a few there help. I have no ill intentions. Yet you attacked me the other day on another post, and at least 4 times now. And it ends here. Best wishes.
I mostly agree, but i will say this. Not everything can be rebuilt. Imagine living in puna. YOu are 60 years old. And have been doing permaculture for the past 30 years. Your garden is a 30 year old permaforest garden. You cant just rebuild that in a few years. 30 years of permaculture really changes the soil and makes it much more fertile. You cant buy that. You have to build it up over ANOTHER 30 year period. If your 60, that means that you will be 90 before you can fully restore what you dedicated most of your life too, especially if you had to work most of your life to get the money to get the resources you need to start doing something like that. For people that are in that situation i can completely understand especially because they will probably never get to live to see it rebuilt. Having your life's work destroyed in a day knowing you wont be able to rebuild it, is probably to some people, Just as bad as death. I personally don't think there is anything wrong for people to feel that way. You just gotta accept that some people would rather go with their life's work, than live to remember they cant ever get it back.
It’s not that big of a deal. Just find the shortest guy on the island give him a ring and tell him to throw it in the volcano. It worked in a movie I watched, forget the name of it though.
Hilina Slump,massive landslip,that side of Big Island is sliding into the Pacific Ocean,it's happened many times before!!To my eyes it's happening again,check out Hilina slump in yt
All of these people knew where they were living and building houses. Try not to feel sorry for them to much. Life will go on and now maybe they will move to your neighbor hood.
They say dont change your travel plans please come to Hawaii and visit even though the whole place is a death trap and even the people that live here are leaving , because we still want your money and we wont give it back even if your hotel burns down .
Is sight seeing the active volcano the main reason for going? What about the beaches and marine stuff? What about the other islands? What about Pearl Harbor?
Nicotti - Ummm...Pearl Harbor is not on the Big Island - and the volcano IS the main reason people go to the Big Island, not the rest of Hawaii, Einstein.
Nicotti. Yeah the highly poisonous plumes of deadly smoke" sounds good.... ridiculous who in their right mind wants to spend many thousands of dollars going to the islands for risks such as that it's ridiculous!!
As the earth is rotating you will notice that this will peak like now then subside then you'll see a larger uptick. The reason they can't really fully predict what's happening is because the answer isint in the ground it's in fact out in space.. there's something causing a gravitational pull on the planet from a certain direction...what is magma??.. so as the earth is rotating it is passing thru a stronger area of magnetic pull every rotation as to pull magma out of the earth. Which is also y as it passes thru this pull every rotation more liquid will come up becuz the previous pulls have made way for it and also pulled more towards the earth's surface. The real question is what is causing the pull and can this also upset Yellowstone if the same phenomenon happened along its Co ordinary during rotation?. Thanks cya earthlings 👾🐍
I'm sorry all 32 of my family who live both in Puna and elsewhere in Hawaii make damned good livings. They all work, and work hard. They are great folks with strong belief in themselves and their worth. What's wrong with you?
They live on a bunch of volcanos. This is semi normal and the cost of living there. Everyone who lives in Hawaii realizes that volcanoes erupt. Especially one of the most active volcanos in the world.
This is gonna keep up. The Caldera center is moving downstream. This did not happen in 1924 or really on this magnitude in recent historical history. Big island has some big growing pains going on and no doubt anywhere in the southern section is dangerous. Those cracks are a shifting landslide propelled by magma on a slow yet assured breakoff. Caldera center of the volcano has to move with the magma plum hot spot.
Wrong direction. The next plume top is already established at Loihi and the island will reach the ocean surface in a few thousand years. The caldera in the top of Kilauea will still be active when you are turned to dust in your grave.
How many peeps commenting here are actually hawaiian? It’s interesting how quickly religion and politics is brought into topic, concerning but interesting. I just came here to see the amazing sight that is the power of kilauea, as it may never happen again like this in our lifetime. Sorry to the locals displaced but hey you can always rebuild, you cannot respawn, unless maybe you’re some of the religious fenatics in the comments
JB, I have made comments to your previous post and you are right. I was born Honolulu 1944, I am not native Hawaiian, but my mother was and instilled in me love for the beauty of Hawaii that is now gone. I grew up on the black sand beaches of Hilo, I have been back a few times, but nothing is left of what I knew to be Hawaii.
inpui scroll I hope some day you will be able to come here. Perhaps you'll be like so many of us who fall in love with the island and especially, the people.
"Sorry for the inconvenience while I remodel.
Thank you for your patience- Mother Nature"
I hope everyone stays safe ,
Here's a sound comment. (Don't scroll down lol)
Erwin Tipton yeah go on vacation somewhere tropical
I got burnt by the lava yesterday. 4th degree. I my hand feels like meat in a grinder ...Do not touch lava for a youtube video...
Nic Parker fr?
@ K B,,, Can't afford it and can't make time :(
I spent 5 days on the Big Island. Only 4 hours at the volcano park. There is a lot to do besides volcanos. In fact, the opposite-side of the island had far-less rain while I was there. Beaches were beautiful.
wjatube when the lava lands we blow up!!!! Your lava is not as dangerous!# evacuate that side of the island. It's createding a new mouth right next to the coast! I can feel it.
wjatube thank God! Here comes our new Hawaii coral reef!!! Because you government & tourist fucked up the last one!!!!!
wjatube blow baby! Blow.
wjatube mount st Helena sell's heat t the entire state of calarado. From her steam year around especially during winter. She heats every house & building in calarado state. But she lives here with me in California.
wjatube tell the fire goddess I said do what it takes !! I demand my Hawaii natural barrier coral reef back!! Then maybe I'll come see you again. # blow baby! Blow..! Baby.
I wish the pictures of the volcanic action and the interviews were date and time stamped!
Another good update. Thanks a bunch for keeping us updated so frequently! Hope you all get good sleep, and eat well. Heaven knows we have some terrific food here in the islands.
Guys, we have to get maui to return the heart of tefiti so this can end already.
Boat snack!
I'm with you!

But I do believe in a lot of cases the land goes back to the government, but you get a nice check to move on.
For some odd reason, seeing all that lava made me hungry for grilled cheese sandwiches.
501 🌋 lol❣️
There's gotta be at least one local who grilled a hotdog over the lava
501 Yes, you could make a lot of them with all that heat. Just dont let that spatter on your sandwich, sulpher tastes terrible.
501 with ham and tomatoes
but youll need to have hot sauce with that

How do you get a permit to build a house on an active volcano?
DEER CAM ORBS AT FRANK JAMESES
Ask the bank that mortgaged the 💩
DEER CAM ORBS AT FRANK JAMESES : That's easy, just confess you're fireproof.
Can you say money over and over. Aloha is Hawaiian for MONEY. I was born in Hawaii now live in Arizona.
how do you git a permit to build? real easily apparently. it is a shame to see those peoples homes burnt up, the odds just caught up with them. glad no lives have been lost in this.
DEER CAM ORBS AT FRANK JAMESES it was dormant many years ago until it got more boisterous..too late those property values are gone
God bless you ALL in Hawaii. I am so sad for you and all you've lost and are going through. Please be as safe as you can. Hugs
Hawaii is really growing. This should really be a boost for Hawaii economy. Tourism for now and later all the new home construction later. Think of all the new homes they can build on the new lava fields.
Leilani Estates isn't on an active volcano, it's in line with rift zone 1. Kilauea is NOT in Leilani Estates.
WOW! I feel for you all involved. Hope you can get through this. Personal items can be replaced, be safe!
just look at how that lava boils.. it's amazing how much energy there is in the bottom of the earth
CHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 💪🌋 Koa ka aina!!! Love da aina, good stuff Tutu Pele..she say too many permanent tourist so gotta make big the land for some kalo patches and fo da keikes. Plus Maui been acting out yeah?
But in all seriousness i hope the people are safe...let the land return to its natural state to build a new stronger aina.
Menehune Beachbumboogie wtf
This is getten super bad I really hope no one was trapped in those homes 🙏 please everyone keep safe and God bless!!!!
you can rebuild a home after a earthquake, flood, tornado, hurricane, but you cannot go back home that's been caked over by what could be a lava bed. may your loved ones be safe, god bless you Hawaii.
This is old film shot on May 18th. You can see that published date above.
I’m loving this. This volcano erupts every 100-120 years... BUT Hawaii approved this neighborhood because they were assured that the volcano had been dormant for almost a hundred years, and besides who can predict lava flow? Hello? Downhill.
About 50 to 60 eruptions happen each month. Some volcanoes are in constant activity - Stromboli, Kilauea, or Sakurajima, for example.
oh...i am so surprised living on top of a volcano..lol
I wish I could see that in real! So beautiful!
Don't think it's the lava pushing through, more like ground sliding into the ocean and opening cracks that lava comes through
First hurricanes which led to floods and now lava....WTH! Mother nature you are too much!
Total irresponsibility of state government to allow construction of homes at base of volcano and lava flow regions
I hope that people will be safe before any kind of serious action but.... This vulcano activity (what, where and how its doing) is very interesting to follow and watch.
Imagine how hard it will be to remove all that rock before you can even begin to rebuild. I feel so bad for those people.
This is the stuff we learned I school about prehistoric days. Crazy crazy....
i wonder if a bill collector calls and ask why you haven’t paid, if it is a good excuse that lava burned up my mail.
I know this is bad, but if I recall correctly, doesn’t Hawai’i erupt like once every 2 years?
Hawaii is recreating its land hope everyones is humble amd okay there
its like looking at the biggest lava lamp ive ever seen . hope every one keeps safe. 😆🖒
My prayers go out to them.
What's Madame Pahele? Is that a fable on the island?
so wounder what the odds are for the new spots becomeing the new volcano .meaning the magma staying where its at right now.
Is Yellowstone and St Helen next? well we will see this is extraordinary.
I'm curious if anyone knows how this is cleaned up? Like can the lava rock be easily broken up with a backhoe and cleared off the road? I mean I know the roads are destroyed anyway and will have to be rebuilt due to the cracking, but do they clear the lava or just go over it? I assume it's not like soil that can just be graded away.
turbo2ltr dynamite and big equipment
Most of the activity is down in Lava Estates, where the heating bill is free!
Those fissures are cutting the lower end of the island in half like a plasma cutter. New land my arse, everything south of the fissures is going to slump into the ocean.
I cant believe how long ago this was. It doesnt feel like 2 years 😅
There is a beautiful view from in the mouth of the volano, why not build a house there?
Ummm I disagree. They've tge officials had plenty of time to prepare. As well as to evacuate.
Charlotte Cannon, where do you live? Are you on the mainland? Can we come live with you? Or, can you imagine walking away from all you know and love, to move somewhere you don't want to go?

Crazy promotion of a troubled Island for vacationers.
It’s not that big of a deal. Just find the shortest guy on the island give him a ring and tell him to throw it in the volcano. It worked in a movie I watched, forget the name of it though.
I pray for everyone in Hawaii.
The Hawaiian chains is in no way connected with the Pacific Rim volcanos. Just as Lake Tahoe is not related with the Pacific Ocean.
The whole island is gonna blow !
Cracks are getting bigger, in other words, pressure is building until kaboom!
Pele isn't happy how Hawaii is operating right now. Stupid rail roads, and the island just gets worse by day.
Thats so sad! Leilani Estates was so beautiful until this happened, now it looks like hell.
Hilina Slump,massive landslip,that side of Big Island is sliding into the Pacific Ocean,it's happened many times before!!To my eyes it's happening again,check out Hilina slump in yt
I wonder.if Blue Hawaiian helicopter service is up and running ?
Sheryl Huffman why are they the best?
Don't go to Hawaii Volcanic activity is life threatening I hope the best for the people there
It's hard to think of losing my home to a volcano. So devastating! I wish I could help, but... massive volcano in the way, so please be safe, people!
All of these people knew where they were living and building houses. Try not to feel sorry for them to much. Life will go on and now maybe they will move to your neighbor hood.
" Get to the choppa "
Frodo SHOULD'VE GAVE BACK THE PRECIOUS...
Here's a reason to change your plans. If you were planning to visit the park. lol
They won't even let you near the lava.
Fuck, the only reason I would go to hawaii is to see the active volcano and vents.
now it's 22 fissures..every day it's one or two more! the island is cracking open..more to happen
K B no it isn't, just a small portion of the island.
They say dont change your travel plans please come to Hawaii and visit even though the whole place is a death trap and even the people that live here are leaving , because we still want your money and we wont give it back even if your hotel burns down .
At least they have some live video of what's going on there.
The tourism industry is so fucked up they selling tickets to Hawaii in the midst of this shit, what’s next a lava retreat 🔥🔥🔥
no lead time? what?
Come spend your money but STAY OUT OF OUR WAY; DON'T SIGHTSEE THE MAIN REASON FOR COMING; and, oh..BRING A GAS MASK! Great sales pitch!
Is sight seeing the active volcano the main reason for going? What about the beaches and marine stuff? What about the other islands? What about Pearl Harbor?
Nicotti - Ummm...Pearl Harbor is not on the Big Island - and the volcano IS the main reason people go to the Big Island, not the rest of Hawaii, Einstein.
Nicotti. Yeah the highly poisonous plumes of deadly smoke" sounds good.... ridiculous who in their right mind wants to spend many thousands of dollars going to the islands for risks such as that it's ridiculous!!
Come to the Big Island!
It's not just a vacation, it's and adventure!
Don Brown i
The power of Money, ugh!, this F'N world.
The hell?!?! Why did I have to see this!
As the earth is rotating you will notice that this will peak like now then subside then you'll see a larger uptick.

Right, Hawaii is not part of the ring of fire.. Its apart of the “Oceanic butt crack” where new world is made constantly...
This is how hell looks like.
Main vent is being replaced by new one
Madam Pele is not giving back her new place. If I lived there I would be making sacrifice to her! She is not happy with her people.
is Don Ho living ....
Amazingly if that happened in California the whole state would all burn....
I'm sorry all 32 of my family who live both in Puna and elsewhere in Hawaii make damned good livings. They all work, and work hard. They are great folks with strong belief in themselves and their worth. What's wrong with you?
omg this might be terrifying
Lets stand on top of a crack where lava may flow up, good idea, "Just look at it!"
Pssh Bitch I told my neighbor kids where to cook their hotdogs and smores
In a way it's so beautifully scarry, where is William Shatner "it's not nice to fool with mother nature"
This is serious and still all they think about is making money from tourism
You know the tours are given by helicopter...right?
fudge the caucasion
Folks still gotta make a living. If you work in the tourist industry, you're screwed...
They live on a bunch of volcanos. This is semi normal and the cost of living there. Everyone who lives in Hawaii realizes that volcanoes erupt. Especially one of the most active volcanos in the world.
I would think a good time to go to Kona or Hilo, see the glow, help the economy.
What is this for nonsense? Encouraging tourists to come to Hawaii while there is a state of emergency! In other words, there is no danger at all.
Showdown dumb shit better do some research.
Real estates in Leilani Estates are at all time low. Buy now!
Wow this quickly this turned into a human tragedy sorry, I wanted to hear about the volcano!
Nice tie
This is gonna keep up. The Caldera center is moving downstream. This did not happen in 1924 or really on this magnitude in recent historical history. Big island has some big growing pains going on and no doubt anywhere in the southern section is dangerous. Those cracks are a shifting landslide propelled by magma on a slow yet assured breakoff. Caldera center of the volcano has to move with the magma plum hot spot.
@event horizon nah bra you dont understand, dont ask is the leading world official when it comes to volcanic activity. Kapa
Wrong direction. The next plume top is already established at Loihi and the island will reach the ocean surface in a few thousand years. The caldera in the top of Kilauea will still be active when you are turned to dust in your grave.
It moves in big lurches. Yes very slow, but big lurches every few hundred years similar to a subduction zone having stress built up over centuries.

Oh hell it's only a silly volcano.
where is dog the bounty hunter when you need him
They want to see more action really????? Sensation seekers 😩
How many peeps commenting here are actually hawaiian? It’s interesting how quickly religion and politics is brought into topic, concerning but interesting. I just came here to see the amazing sight that is the power of kilauea, as it may never happen again like this in our lifetime. Sorry to the locals displaced but hey you can always rebuild, you cannot respawn, unless maybe you’re some of the religious fenatics in the comments
JB, I have made comments to your previous post and you are right. I was born Honolulu 1944, I am not native Hawaiian, but my mother was and instilled in me love for the beauty of Hawaii that is now gone. I grew up on the black sand beaches of Hilo, I have been back a few times, but nothing is left of what I knew to be Hawaii.
J B I'm sure Trump is to soon be blamed for this issue
K B Trump cant even tie his own fuckn shoes or hold a normal conversation...he counterdicts himself constantly and is a pos...he has ZERO power
Not many native hawaiinas even exist
matthew gallaway yup, we're the few..the proud..the strong 💪😏 and thats why Hawaii means so much to us. Very sacred and Kapu
The HUGE EVENT IS STILL GOING TO HAPPEN
I wish I lived in Hawaii. Want to see with my own eyes.
The volcano. Volcano.
inpui scroll You mean you would like to live on the big Island or one of the other islands and fly over there to see it with your own eyes .
Sheryl Huffman it would be a blessing to live in the big island.
inpui scroll Just remember a lot of people are not living in their homes ; they are living in shelters because they were evacuated from their homes .
inpui scroll I hope some day you will be able to come here. Perhaps you'll be like so many of us who fall in love with the island and especially, the people.
