Forget the crashing into the volcano. That footage it took prior to crashing was what was spectacular. Without drones we wouldn't have video like that. I am in total awe of the power of that volcano and the technology that allowed us to see it.
@@royrodgers6523 most of these great humans have been european tho and still to this day, the carriers of civilization have always been a minority of the population.
That’s exactly what I was thinking, a second drone following filming in slow mo, to capture of the drone melted at all before it disappeared into the lava and was consumed. Amazing footage!!!
Great video until the end, but I mean the "sacrifice" in the end would have been avoidable and it doesn't really make sense to me. Why should you literally burn thousands of euros? Is that refinanced through additional likes? I do not think so.
Extraordinarily lucky when you take everything into account - it could easily have ended up in many other places where it could not be picked up. To you, it sounds like it was worth it. For me, it is definitely worth it.
The thing is, this is not a massive amount of lava. It is only arojnd 13 cubic meters per second. That's compared to cubic kilometers (1 billion cubic meters) that can be released by truly massive volcanoes.
how were you able to get better than fpv camera quality if the drone was destroyed. I am guessing you transmitted the high quality video wirelessly ? What method did you use?
I think the drone suffered already in a fatal way when it flew through the hot gases before entering the caldera. The heat from the magma must be incredible. Awesome footage.
In the 15 years of building and flying drones, I've never seen a better use case. There is quite simply no other way to get this footage, without spending exponentially more moolah! Total genius bro. Very very well done.
I often wonder about the amount of lava that's spewing out. What happens to the space it leaves? Does it all just end up as underground caves or what, when it eventually cools.
@@myapinion7532 it doesn’t leave any space, as such. The tectonic plates are melted and that material is squeezed out at the surface as a lava flow. It solidifies, thus restoring the solid material that forms the outer crust of the earth. In practice, it’s a bit more complicated than that, but that is, roughly speaking, the process.
@@f123raptor Ah! Right! Thanks for explaining that. I was going to Google it but still on the to do list. I should've listened better at school, lol. Thanks again. 😊

Spectacular coverage of the massive, molten rock river ! Gives great perspective on the volume of lava involved. The very end … with the splashed liquid on the lens… melting it… truly epic !
Epic, and amazing, and I just can't get over how it all went down What a scene! The imagery is superb, spectacular, and mind bending. OMG! R.I.P. little drone.
This comes closest to jumping into the volcano yourself, happy bit is the aftermath however, you are able to relive the moment over and over again and it doesn't hurt (maybe financially once). Epic footage!
Brilliant the way you witnessed the birth of dirt and watched it move like a river and used the eye of technology and flew it into its own death , thank you ,I needed that !!!!
I thought I was a little borderline, having an after-hours career in climbing erupting volcanoes. I am thoroughly loving your footage, Joey, your fonts are perfect, too. Keep 'em coming, please!
Cool looking views up close to the magma, very nice flying of the drone. Sorry you lost the drone. Keep up the flying, its looking good. Thank you for sharing and have a good day!
Impressive! Just as good as Jimmy Hendrix setting his electric guitar on fire or The Who beating the shit out of all their equipment! A once in a life time event that can never be repeated quite like that ever again. The colors were spectacular! I could almost feel the heat! Very ballsy!
That was amazing! You have taken us, where we never could have imagined, Into the beating heart, of a live volcano. Thanks for sharing, and best wishes for your continued success.

Well DAMN! Now this is something that i think is the very first time anyone has ever done, and I've watched damn near every film there is of people flying drones around volcanoes😂 All i can say is DAMN! And thanks for sacrificing your expensive piece of equipment to show us just how hot lava is👍👍👍
Great footage! It's a shame it's only 720p/810p. True 4k would have been awesome. You should be able to buy several replacement drones with the income from this!
This is what I've been waiting for, this is what drones were made for! Next time take 20 of them so we can get insane close ups until something hits them over and over!
Nice, hätte gedacht das sie allein von den Dämpfen schmilzt oder die Technik überhitzt und darauf hin abstürzt. Ich finde das war es auf jeden Fall wert.
But before that fatal crash, that was a gorgeous video. Great quality from the FPV. Let's focus on how it lived, not how it died.
Oh Fuck.

My guess is mistake. I'm guessing they planned to fly over it, but the heat probably melted the props and it just dove into the lava.

I guess hot air creates less lift, right? And air that hot is probably less dense than a helium balloon at room temperature.
This one flew into the flying pieces of hot lava. Molten rock is still heavy!
I'm guessing this is what happened... not enough time to compensate the air density and down it went.
I tend to think the tips of the props melted, reducing lift.
