Hi Scott. Sorry you're feeling a little down today. I noticed it in your voice when you started this video. It's totally understandable. I keep praying this will stop soon. I'd like everything to get back to normal for you all. All I have to say is that I believe that there's a reason for everything. Keep having faith that it'll stop soon. Your video today is another beautiful display of this rotten mess. The clouds and smoke trails are magnificent! The colors, too, towards the end are really pretty! You're doing such a great job filming all of this, Scott. I, and everyone else here, love seeing all of this fabulous footage you're capturing. It's so awesome and amazing! Today's video shows a lot more action, I think, to the left of the Big Daddy spout. More little spouts are trying to reach up to the sky. The river to the left is still flowing strong. Unbelievable the amount of lava pouring out! Man, it's just too much. Wow. Still, even though it is beautiful to see, I do wish it would end. Enough already! Right? Right. I feel for ya, Scott, and for all that are there. Keep your chin up, and remember that we're here for you and appreciate all that you do so we can be in this with you all. Take care! Big HUG for you. Til soon ~ Barb :-)
This has become your Groundhog Day Scott (like in the movie with Bill Murray). Every morning you hope it will be over but it’s the same thing. I know you’re tired of it, but I still enjoy watching your videos. The images are mesmerizing and you always have something interesting to say.
Scott, if you wake up everyday hoping that this event has stopped, you are going to drive yourself into depression with daily disappointment. The fissure looks like its going to be active for a long time. It actually seems to be becoming increasingly active with f22 spattering and leaking lava right now and other vents near 8 glowing and smoking heavily. All I can do is suggest you work to capitalise on the event. There are plenty of people wanting access to viewing area's.....put yourself first in line to be one of the tour guides taking them there. Take good care of yourself. Aloha!
Don’t let big daddy get you down Scott. There maybe better videos, but there is only one you. And I can speak for most of us, that you make it honest as well an adventure. You have a unique personality. And your laughter is contagious. Hang in there, keep your head up,(I know it’s easy for me to say) but without you, this once in a life time event would not be interesting at all. You put the human touch on the effect this eruption has on people who have to live with it day in and day out. Thank you. And be safe my friend
Scott, sorry you are feeling low, sometimes it turns into something better. All of your video's are not borring stuff! although it might look the same, it is always different. So, sorry it's still going on, it will end. I can't thank you enough for the laughter and Joy you give so freely. Your voice is soothing and relaxing. Please accept this, it's not an ego thing, it's you! much love, take care, namaste
Scott, you provide a unique view into this life altering event that no one else can because of YOUR personality. Each person has their own unique style and gifts. I follow you because of that. I don't compare each person's style, I just enjoy each person's take on it. Thank you for sharing your wonderful gifts and learning experiences as you go along. You're awesome!!!🌺
I cannot imagine what it feels like to wake-up to this life-changing event every day. My heart hurts for all of you. I do watch some of the other channels you mention, but I always start with yours. It is not only about the volcano. It is also about the human condition and how all of you are coping on a daily basis. Stay strong, Scott. 💕
Hello Scott! I haven't commented before, but I have seen your videos since this began. I am impressed by your commitment to getting out an individual perspective of this event! I am impressed at how you and your neighbors have kept such a positive attitude in the face of such destruction (and creation). Your videos are wonderful. You may not have a helicopter or drone, but you are a real person with real emotion. I'd rather see your videos any day than one with a digital voice and hijacked videos from other sources. How some people can take USGS stuff, add a computer voice to it (that can't even pronounce Kilauea or Halemaumau) and monetize it annoys me. I think you and others who make truly original content deserve to reap the rewards. Everyone out there who admires Scott's work, let's all subscribe, watch his videos and do whatever we can so he can get compensated for the work he does. I, for one, appreciate the fact you are sharing this with all of us money or no money. Aloha and all the best to you. We hope to come visit the Big Island before too long. Aloha from Michigan!
The new normal has to be so very difficult. And yet you have been amazingly diligent with providing the ability for everyone around the world to experience this event along with you, your neighbors, friends and those around you. Thank you. Your video's are the best. We look forward to meeting you the next time we're in Hawaii. Aloha. Bruce & Jill
Hey Scott, I am in the mountains of SOUTHERN WEST VIRGINIA, where I was born and raised! I have never seen history in the making and I know you sound sad, when I have watched you all the other times, you have been upbeat and so wonderful to travel around with. If I ever came to Hawaii, I would remember your name and the name of your business. We tend to just have floods, but I love how you are up there, in the middle of all this, and making us see what you see. So, love and blessings to you, and Thank you so much for this! I always watch you, you are there and brave.
Lava fatigue has set in. The destruction is horrendous but the beauty is magnificent. Thank you for all your videos. Your videos don't just show lava, you teach us, explain things to us and put a human side to it all. Thank you for that. Thanks for being you!
Your videos are good others have good videos as well. You have the best voice!!!! You have a good radio voice that is relaxing along with excitement about nature! Thanks Scott!
It's really hard to look at this and know that 2 months ago this was a lovely neighborhood with homes and gardens and people just living out their normal lives, :( Thank you, Scott for sharing this with us. I'm learning a lot from you.
Listening to you in this video all I want to do is to be able to give you a big hug. Knowing all the damage this has caused and in your case loss of tours meaning loss of income must be so devastating. Just remember although we can not be with you physically we are all there in thought and prayer. You truly have been and are still doing a absolutely amazing thing. So many of us have learnt so much watching your videos. Many hugs sent your way. Mahola and aloha
All of the vids of this event from the different vantage points/you tubers are informative and relevent...yours are all that plus an engaging and endearing narrative that is real and accessible.
Thanks Scott for continuing to keep us updated. I love listening to you. Hurts my heart that you sound so bummed. Hang in there. 💓 Keeping the hope that this ends soon. 🤞
Hey, Scott!!! I LOVE your videos of the lava, and rather watch yours than any others. You are fantastic at what you do, so stop putting yourself down. Be patient, little grasshopper, for better days are coming. :) I love your early morning walks, even if Griffin doesn't. lol You keep doing what you are doing, and stay humble as always. :) Hugs from an old woman on the east coast of Canada, sweltering in unaccustomed heat. Aloha!!
I can't imagine how tired and frustrated living with this for so long is for you. I was so fortunate to have a test tube (lVF) baby in 1986. He was a 10 year science project and as wonderful as it was some days were tough. Glad you are plowing through the mud. You are truly an inspiration.
Dear Scott, we watched those videos from usg...without any comments and the other channel just shows those pictures again with the same comment every time. We talked about that and realized that we so much appreciate the comments You give, whatever You say! It is as if we were there with You like sitting around a huge campfire with all the followers from around the world. I think about You and what You are going through every day. We are with You step by step supporting You the best we can! Keep strong! You are doing great!! From Switzerland Esther
Good morning Scott. Thank you for my morning postcard. I'm in California and can't begin to imagine what waking up to this is like every morning. Saw some recent footage of Fisher 10. It was pictures of cracks in the ground. It literally made me feel nauseated to think of my property with open cracks and the idea of molten lava underneath me. I have experienced many earthquakes but this is something that the brain Can't Rap your head around. Thank you again for keeping us all informed on your life and how things are going in your world. If we had the money we would be over there hiring you for a tour!!!! Wishing you the very best from Cali!! Hugo, Shelley, and Kenny
ROFLMHO! You say there is 'not much to see' here, and yet here I sit, enthralled by the video, not sure what to look at next so sometimes I 'rewind' a few seconds for another look!
Your videos are the only ones I watch for this volcano event, they suit me . Awesome sights, no need to hype the excitement angle. Appreciate the view into wonders of this earth.
Hi from Tulsa, Oklahoma. Your videos are Awesome and close enough to see the amazing non-stop fissure and lava river. Thank you so much for sharing this Incredible Historic footage.
Oh, the stone feel from my heart when I heard your first moment, "uh." I hope this lingering lava doesn't take your wonderful sense of humor away. The bit of a tornado in there in the middle is pretty cool. Thank you for still giving out tid bits of education as you talk. All the best to you, Aloha.
Frankly I’m impressed that you have been able to stay “up” as long as you have! As you said this is a horrible situation. Being down is necessary for us to resolve and restore. Your easy going way will always win out. Keep the faith and rest assured that we are still here for you, Aaaaa lo ha 😀
There was monetization of the go pro video mount but not the July 2 Leilani video for me at 1: 05 am on 7/3. So, it seems it was monetized 50 minutes ago for US est. Thank you so much for your dedication. You have shown the world the true Hawaii spirit and that not all of Hawaii is a volcano.
As much as I enjoy your videos, I really am praying this stops soon for the sake of everyone there. I for one have learned so much about volcanoes in the last month than in my previous 50+ years of life. Also, I am enjoying, even more so, the video tours of just everyday life and the beautiful & amazing places to see there. It has stirred a desire to come visit there that I hope can be fulfilled some day.
You know Scott, once you get monetized - if this speaks to you - you might want to suggest that the Hawaii Tourism folks run an ad or two on your site. I know it's a hard time for the state right now, and other things also have to be prioritized, but you've already got several thousand pair of dedicated eyeballs here, not to mention you've made a lot of people realize they really want to visit Hawaii - volcano and all. If you're gonna have to run ads anyway, you might as get a word in for the home state. At the rate you're going, they're already going to ask you to run for governor anyway, lol.
Mahalo for all you are doing to document this . It's good to step back and show us around the Island World Is loving it. By the sound of your voice ,seems this is becoming daunting toll on you emotionally . Ian sure All in your surrounding pray for it to end . God bless you for all you do every day Scott. 😎❤️🤓🙏🏻✝🕊🌴🌺🐸
Scott, I cannot imagine this being in your neighborhood for this long. It must be exhausting, thrilling, numbing, so many things all at the same time. Stay vigilant as ever, and thank you for helping your local and global neighbors come together like this. Big hugs to you, Noe, CJ, Amanda, and the other neighbors.
Just think one day you will wake up and your dream will have come true! Keep that fire of hope burning within for a brighter day ahead! I agree with another commenter who said you have battle fatigue. You have been keeping us updated since this began. Have you ever taken a day off without even posting a video? We really appreciate your dedication and love you for it but sometimes you just need a day or two to reboot your brain and body. I guarantee you everyone would understand. Take care of yourself!
I love watching your videos, they are stunning. Our news doesn't cover what's going on for all of you (west coast at least, not sure what east coast news is covering). Aussie's are loving what you are doing, keep going for as long as you are able
You sound so down today Scott. I can only imagine what you and all the people there are going through. Praying that it stops soon so everyone can move forward. Mahalo!
From facinating to frustrating, from tour guide to part of the tour. How life can change in such a short time. Thankful at least RUclips has been a positive part of this journey.
Thank you Scott for your faithfulness. You are a true pure soul (your "no competition" attitude) who is our witness to Mother Nature's primordinal energy......which has no beginning and no ending. We are with you through it all...... We love you.
Your not yourself today Scott, and I think most of us appreciate how your feeling. Madam Pele has disrupted so many lives there in beautiful Hawaii. Your morning chat shares the experience of earth being made. The downside Scott is, that when all goes quiet you will not be there to listen to any more. Thank you mate.
Sending out continued thanks from the 9th Island for all that you are doing! You say, “Nothing has changed...you’ve seen it before...” but through you we still have better access than anything the mainstream media is offering...especially here on the mainland. It may be the same old stuff; however, we have all become mesmerized by your random chats. 👍🏻😃
Scott, LOVE YOUR DAILY 🎥, KEEP UP THE AWESOME TOURS. THANKS FOR KEEPING ALL OF US INFORMED. BY THE WAY, I REALLY, REALLY, ENJOY THE ROAD TRIPS. TAKE CARE!!
Boy, the lava fish are really jumping this morning. It's so beautiful, but for your sake I hope this is not going to be your new normal. Don't be down. Without this happening, you would't have found all of us. Now you have a huge loving supportive family all around the world wishing you well.
I wish there was a way to help cheer you up. I for one love listening to your dialogue every morning but I'm sure I would be depressed if I had to live like you have lived for 2 months. You are doing a great job with your videos.
Wow Scott. Do you ever sleep??? I don’t know how you do it! You’re getting much better at the videos! Thanks for your tireless efforts on our behalf! Praying for you and everyone affected by this horrific but amazing event! Keep the faith! 😉❤️🐢
Good morning dear. Hearing the tones in your voice really was touching. Warm hugs. I know you just want your normal life back. Hmmm it is strangely devoid of froggy songs this morning, wonder what's up? I keep expecting a face to appear in the clouds like the wizard of oz....I am the great and powerful Ozzzzzzz
On behalf of us Aussies, You're welcome and Thankyou so very much! Lot of us have been here since the beginning, and those who haven't, it's quite easy to go back through the old videos. You sound so very down, totally understandable though. Keep molten rocking on, Scott. We love your videos so much. You have our support and positive thoughts, always. 🌋🇦🇺🤘🤘🌞
Thanks Scott for your honesty in how it’s making you feel. I can imagine everything is all turned upside down for you and the want for it to just be normal again must be huge! I’m so glad you have been providing these videos and making real connections with people who are affected.
This video is by far more beautiful, Scott. We have a farmer's market nearby, but the prices are so expensive. I guess if you go on Saturday night you can save money, but I just don't have the time or energy to walk the distance through the market. You seem down today. I guess one must accept what is in this case, as there is no control over mother nature. But, I don't have to tell you that. Keep doing interviews. They're really great. Thank you for all you do to show us, and the world, your experiences. I plan to order some items on Red Bubble when my inheritence comes in a few weeks. There is some really neat stuff, especially the map, and the pups. Take it easy and know that this will end at some point.
Scott. There's a parade and celebration up at Volcano Village tomorrow. I just saw it announced on your local news tonight. Maybe you can hie thee up there, and have a bit of R & R. Thanks for your time this evening to produce another beautiful video.
Now my day can go on! Had my volcano fix. While I am familiar with the years of eruption, the length and intensity of this I way over the top. Scott all your followers are loving every minute of this. Guess that does not make up for having you income stopped, with no clue when it gets back to normal. The Seaview sunrise was over the top for me! It was familiar and wonderful, then the colors hit the palm trees! I am heading for merchandise with that scene. Besides, you pronounce Hawaiian names correctly, unlike those computerized voices! Aloha nui loa.
patricia carlson what does that mean? Those last words after you said Aloha...I think everything about Hawaii is so beautiful. The islands, music, gorgeous flowers, palms, greenery, language n people...God Bless n keep you all...💕🙏
Whoa. still very intense. Your voice seemed to go from annoyed and frustrated to accepting. Really tough what is going on and how you folks are dealing with it. Bound to get to you. Know there are thousands of us who appreciate your effort AND would understand if you just stepped back for awhile. Always wishing you well. Sending loving vibes to all the Big Islanders. Namaste
Obviously, you're not alone in this. Look at all your friends settling in to watch and share your concerns. We are grateful for your persistence and willing to steady your burden. Take care and hang in there. Idaho is watching.
Ty Scott for keeping us mainlanders informed, PA here. I am praying that Kīlauea stops it’s temper tantrum so that all of you affected can pick up the pieces and start over. As much as I love to visit Hawaii that probably will not happen as I can’t travel by plane. Mahalo
Scott. I wish "it" would go to sleep for you snd everyone else there. I'm sure you'd like to get your luves back(I still worry about you and your property should there be a big breach in the banks) I would miss hearing from you. But it would be for a happy reason. Hugs to you and your pups. Thanks for your videos. I like yours.
Hi Scott, love what you doing. Been with you from the beginning and you give us another perspective on island life at the moment. Hugs to your furkids x
I am so sorry Scott, it really breaks my heart your so down... I imagine you have your confidents and so on... and that you turn to them to ventilate at moments like this. And i commend you for that, sometimes people just shut others out when sadness becomes difficult to bear. Thanks for trusting us and opening up to us, i personally value your genuine character and honesty. Don't ever doubt to reach out. We love ya, take care buddy. - Rachel. thank you for getting a shot of my soda pop sky 💖
I have been watching from the beginning -and I can proudly proclaim that I am Still. Not. Bored! Are you sure that you're not a lava whisperer? -Fssure "8" living up to its "infinite" name!!
I am still amazed and in awe of the lava’s continued power and flow, and my heart is heavy for you and everyone affected by this tremendous disaster. Stay hopeful that it stops soon. I keep you in my prayers, but I know you are going to be fine. We’re there with you!!
Thanks Scott. I've been watching your videos for weeks. Great footage! Loved your jaunt to the Farmers market yesterday. Cookies looked yummy, but you passed up all that great produce and the beautiful orchids!🌺🌻🌼🌸🌴 Mahalo.
Yes, you do indeed sound down, poor Scott! And no wonder, people's lives disrupted for who knows how long. I just hope things work out for you, sooner rather than later. Meanwhile what you give us is so much more real and immediate than the drama seen from a helicopter. Thank you!
When I look at the fissure, both beautiful and terrible, the below quote goes through my mind: "And I shall not be dark, but beautiful and terrible as the Morning and the Night! Fair as the Sea and the Sun and the Snow upon the Mountain! Dreadful as the Storm and the Lightning! Stronger than the foundations of the earth. All shall love me and despair!"
it's mesmerizing, you'd think it would become empty at some point. Even though it's irritating you made 19K friends. There's something about your voice that that I like to hear. You live so close to the lava flow is why your videos are so captivating. I noticed other videos out there are enhancing with filters and yours is the real thing. It's very nice to not hear about politics.
I enjoy seeing your videos, You and FOBOS PLANET are the best at capturing these events unfolding, however, I come to your videos over the other guy(s). I feel like im actually there talking to you, I hope to get a tour from you sometime in the future.
I noticed H.I.S. had a back side video. Don't know how he did it, but that is not what keeps us watching you. Your personality is. Gotta be thankful for the good stuff. Eventually it will subside. It does appear that gases are combusting mid air. Not sure if what I think I see is accurate. Appreciate your dedication to making videos even when it is tedious and hard to be "up". Whatever will you do, once it stops? Will you still take us along? Aloha!
Who else hits the like button before watching?! 🤙

you have had the best coverage of this eruption..thank you
All of the vids of this event from the different vantage points/you tubers are informative and relevent...yours are all that plus an engaging and endearing narrative that is real and accessible.
Thanks Scott for continuing to keep us updated. I love listening to you. Hurts my heart that you sound so bummed. Hang in there. 💓 Keeping the hope that this ends soon. 🤞
Hi Scott! When the situation gets "normal" again, I am sure you'll have many customers and big tour groups. Everyone loves you!
Awe dear, you sound fed up, we would not mind if you to a day off. We will still be here when you come back , go to the movies or a spa!! 👍🏻💕🏄🏼♀️
Hey, Scott!!! I LOVE your videos of the lava, and rather watch yours than any others. You are fantastic at what you do, so stop putting yourself down. Be patient, little grasshopper, for better days are coming. :) I love your early morning walks, even if Griffin doesn't. lol You keep doing what you are doing, and stay humble as always. :) Hugs from an old woman on the east coast of Canada, sweltering in unaccustomed heat.

Scott, you've outdone yourself today. What amazing video. Hang in there--you wouldn't be human if you didn't feel like you want this to be over.
Dear Scott, we watched those videos from usg...without any comments and the other channel just shows those pictures again with the same comment every time.

Lol, bet not one of the camera suggesters get up at 5 am daily. This is like watching the first space launch. Thank you for your dedication.
Good morning Scott. Thank you for my morning postcard. I'm in California and can't begin to imagine what waking up to this is like every morning. Saw some recent footage of Fisher 10.

I can hear that today you're feeling very frustrated and discouraged by the constant eruption. Hugs.
ROFLMHO! You say there is 'not much to see' here, and yet here I sit, enthralled by the video, not sure what to look at next so sometimes I 'rewind' a few seconds for another look!
All Things Harbor ...Well said!
Wish there was something I could do to fix it, but that is not possible. Hang in there and remember all who watch your videos are with you in spirit.😇

Your vídeos are the ones i like the most, it's not just amazing images you have a special plus for me. Well done. Mucho ánimo from Spain
There was monetization of the go pro video mount but not the July 2 Leilani video for me at 1: 05 am on 7/3. So, it seems it was monetized 50 minutes ago for US est. Thank you so much for your dedication. You have shown the world the true Hawaii spirit and that not all of Hawaii is a volcano.
Monetization seems to work in europe too. I hope this (and donations) will cover the loss of tourists for Scott this season. ADBLOCK OFF, please!
As much as I enjoy your videos, I really am praying this stops soon for the sake of everyone there. I for one have learned so much about volcanoes in the last month than in my previous 50+ years of life. Also, I am enjoying, even more so, the video tours of just everyday life and the beautiful & amazing places to see there. It has stirred a desire to come visit there that I hope can be fulfilled some day.
Thank you Scott for showing the lovely orchids
You know Scott, once you get monetized - if this speaks to you - you might want to suggest that the Hawaii Tourism folks run an ad or two on your site. I know it's a hard time for the state right now, and other things also have to be prioritized, but you've already got several thousand pair of dedicated eyeballs here, not to mention you've made a lot of people realize they really want to visit Hawaii - volcano and all. If you're gonna have to run ads anyway, you might as get a word in for the home state. At the rate you're going, they're already going to ask you to run for governor anyway, lol.
Fantastic views... loved it! Thanks for sharing this with all of us. Sending love and support.... I know it is wearing on you.
Mahalo for all you are doing to document this . It's good to step back and show us around the Island World
Is loving it. By the sound of your voice ,seems this is becoming daunting toll on you emotionally . Ian sure
All in your surrounding pray for it to end . God bless you for all you do every day Scott. 😎❤️🤓🙏🏻✝🕊🌴🌺🐸
Scott, I cannot imagine this being in your neighborhood for this long. It must be exhausting, thrilling, numbing, so many things all at the same time. Stay vigilant as ever, and thank you for helping your local and global neighbors come together like this. Big hugs to you, Noe, CJ, Amanda, and the other neighbors.
Just think one day you will wake up and your dream will have come true! Keep that fire of hope burning within for a brighter day ahead!
I agree with another commenter who said you have battle fatigue. You have been keeping us updated since this began. Have you ever taken a day off without even posting a video? We really appreciate your dedication and love you for it but sometimes you just need a day or two to reboot your brain and body. I guarantee you everyone would understand. Take care of yourself!
I agree just say I’m taking a few days for vacation
I love watching your videos, they are stunning. Our news doesn't cover what's going on for all of you (west coast at least, not sure what east coast news is covering). Aussie's are loving what you are doing, keep going for as long as you are able
You sound so down today Scott. I can only imagine what you and all the people there are going through. Praying that it stops soon so everyone can move forward. Mahalo!
The clouds were breathtaking. Thank you for a wonderful sunrise.
From facinating to frustrating, from tour guide to part of the tour. How life can change in such a short time. Thankful at least RUclips has been a positive part of this journey.
Thank you Scott for your faithfulness. You are a true pure soul (your "no competition" attitude) who is our witness to Mother Nature's primordinal energy......which has no beginning and no ending.
We are with you through it all...... We love you.
Your not yourself today Scott, and I think most of us appreciate how your feeling. Madam Pele has disrupted so many lives there in beautiful Hawaii. Your morning chat shares the experience of earth being made. The downside Scott is, that when all goes quiet you will not be there to listen to any more. Thank you mate.
Sending out continued thanks from the 9th Island for all that you are doing! You say, “Nothing has changed...you’ve seen it before...” but through you we still have better access than anything the mainstream media is offering...especially here on the mainland. It may be the same old stuff; however, we have all become mesmerized by your random chats. 👍🏻😃
Scott, LOVE YOUR DAILY 🎥, KEEP UP THE AWESOME TOURS. THANKS FOR KEEPING ALL OF US INFORMED. BY THE WAY, I REALLY, REALLY, ENJOY THE ROAD TRIPS. TAKE CARE!!
Boy, the lava fish are really jumping this morning. It's so beautiful, but for your sake I hope this is not going to be your new normal. Don't be down. Without this happening, you would't have found all of us. Now you have a huge loving supportive family all around the world wishing you well.
I agree we would never have experienced not only the volcano but
This giant family we are a part of
I wish there was a way to help cheer you up. I for one love listening to your dialogue every morning but I'm sure I would be depressed if I had to live like you have lived for 2 months. You are doing a great job with your videos.
Wow Scott. Do you ever sleep??? I don’t know how you do it! You’re getting much better at the videos! Thanks for your tireless efforts on our behalf! Praying for you and everyone affected by this horrific but amazing event! Keep the faith! 😉❤️🐢
Thank you Scott 😚
Good morning dear. Hearing the tones in your voice really was touching. Warm hugs. I know you just want your normal life back. Hmmm it is strangely devoid of froggy songs this morning, wonder what's up? I keep expecting a face to appear in the clouds like the wizard of oz....I am the great and powerful Ozzzzzzz
On behalf of us Aussies, You're welcome and Thankyou so very much! Lot of us have been here since the beginning, and those who haven't, it's quite easy to go back through the old videos.
You sound so very down, totally understandable though. Keep molten rocking on, Scott. We love your videos so much. You have our support and positive thoughts, always.
🌋🇦🇺🤘🤘🌞
Thanks Scott for your honesty in how it’s making you feel. I can imagine everything is all turned upside down for you and the want for it to just be normal again must be huge! I’m so glad you have been providing these videos and making real connections with people who are affected.
You may be down but remember the joy you’ve brought us👏🏻🌺
This video is by far more beautiful, Scott. We have a farmer's market nearby, but the prices are so expensive. I guess if you go on Saturday night you can save money, but I just don't have the time or energy to walk the distance through the market. You seem down today. I guess one must accept what is in this case, as there is no control over mother nature. But, I don't have to tell you that. Keep doing interviews. They're really great. Thank you for all you do to show us, and the world, your experiences. I plan to order some items on Red Bubble when my inheritence comes in a few weeks. There is some really neat stuff, especially the map, and the pups. Take it easy and know that this will end at some point.
Scott, hang in there, it WILL end and life will get back to some semblance of normal. We all appreciate what you are doing and hope you continue!
Scott, I am sooooo sorry! I know you want this to be over.
Big Hugs buddy, another masterpiece clip. We are here for you and will watch all the ads so you get some money
It is great when you as if we saw something because I can go back and look for it.
Scott. There's a parade and celebration up at Volcano Village tomorrow. I just saw it announced on your local news tonight.
Maybe you can hie thee up there, and have a bit of R & R. Thanks for your time this evening to produce another beautiful video.
Keep up the good work Scott if you combine your videos you could make a documentary I would buy one
It’s like having company that won’t leave
The colors are amazing. Very, very cool. watching it all is almost mesmerizing. Thanks for the videos.
Now my day can go on! Had my volcano fix. While I am familiar with the years of eruption, the length and intensity of this I way over the top. Scott all your followers are loving every minute of this. Guess that does not make up for having you income stopped, with no clue when it gets back to normal. The Seaview sunrise was over the top for me! It was familiar and wonderful, then the colors hit the palm trees! I am heading for merchandise with that scene. Besides, you pronounce Hawaiian names correctly, unlike those computerized voices! Aloha nui loa.
patricia carlson what does that mean? Those last words after you said Aloha...I think everything about Hawaii is so beautiful. The islands, music, gorgeous flowers, palms, greenery, language n people...God Bless n keep you all...💕🙏
Karen Sweet Aloha nui loa = all my love
Sophia Zelina ohh ok! Thats so pretty! Thank you very much! God Bless n Aloha
Things will get better. Have faith and don't loose hope. We are all with you.
Whoa. still very intense. Your voice seemed to go from annoyed and frustrated to accepting. Really tough what is going on and how you folks are dealing with it. Bound to get to you. Know there are thousands of us who appreciate your effort AND would understand if you just stepped back for awhile. Always wishing you well. Sending loving vibes to all the Big Islanders. Namaste
Obviously, you're not alone in this. Look at all your friends settling in to watch and share your concerns. We are grateful for your persistence and willing to steady your burden. Take care and hang in there. Idaho is watching.
You sound so enthusiastic Scott! Just teasing. Keep your chin up and we are praying for you and all affected.
The new norm! Thank you for your time and energy in recording and sharing this💐
Ty Scott for keeping us mainlanders informed, PA here. I am praying that Kīlauea stops it’s temper tantrum so that all of you affected can pick up the pieces and start over. As much as I love to visit Hawaii that probably will not happen as I can’t travel by plane.
Mahalo
Erica R me two I can't travel by plane ithra
Thank you for this one Scott. It captures the enormity of this event so very well.
Scott. I wish "it" would go to sleep for you snd everyone else there. I'm sure you'd like to get your luves back(I still worry about you and your property should there be a big breach in the banks) I would miss hearing from you. But it would be for a happy reason. Hugs to you and your pups. Thanks for your videos. I like yours.
Hey Scott, praying that this stops. Hugs to you and puppies. Hope you continue to put out daily videos, even after this is done.
Good morning Scott. Running so fast! Colors so vibrant & beautiful as always. Maybe not today, but 1 day closer regardless. Keep smiling! Thanks.
Hi Scott, love what you doing. Been with you from the beginning and you give us another perspective on island life at the moment. Hugs to your furkids x
Spectacular watching the sun rise with you and #8
I am so sorry Scott, it really breaks my heart your so down... I imagine you have your confidents and so on... and that you turn to them to ventilate at moments like this. And i commend you for that, sometimes people just shut others out when sadness becomes difficult to bear. Thanks for trusting us and opening up to us, i personally value your genuine character and honesty. Don't ever doubt to reach out. We love ya, take care buddy. - Rachel. thank you for getting a shot of my soda pop sky 💖
Scott if you need a break from lava just go watch another magnificent sunrise
Still watching you nightly from South Africa especially love your dog walks.
These images are cray cray! I had to watch it again. Furious beast! Good filming. 👍
I have been watching from the beginning -and I can proudly proclaim that I am Still. Not. Bored!
Are you sure that you're not a lava whisperer? -Fssure "8" living up to its "infinite" name!!
I am still amazed and in awe of the lava’s continued power and flow, and my heart is heavy for you and everyone affected by this tremendous disaster. Stay hopeful that it stops soon. I keep you in my prayers, but I know you are going to be fine. We’re there with you!!
Still beautiful even after all this time following the lava. Colors are just so beautiful.
Thanks for sharing these amazing videos. Stay safe!
I didn't know fire could be so beautiful and awe inspiring and yet so destructive and creative at the same time
Thanks Scott. I've been watching your videos for weeks. Great footage! Loved your jaunt to the Farmers market yesterday. Cookies looked yummy, but you passed up all that great produce and the beautiful orchids!🌺🌻🌼🌸🌴 Mahalo.
You're doing a great job Scott. Don't put your life or your freedom at risk......
Is true Scott you have the best videos , I can't understand everything you are talking but I'm here everyday 😄😄🤔😊
Yes, you do indeed sound down, poor Scott! And no wonder, people's lives disrupted for who knows how long. I just hope things work out for you, sooner rather than later.
Meanwhile what you give us is so much more real and immediate than the drama seen from a helicopter. Thank you!
Amazing footage here, Scott!
Stay safe!
Mahalo-Aloha!
When I look at the fissure, both beautiful and terrible, the below quote goes through my mind:
"And I shall not be dark, but beautiful and terrible as the Morning and the Night! Fair as the Sea and the Sun and the Snow upon the Mountain! Dreadful as the Storm and the Lightning! Stronger than the foundations of the earth. All shall love me and despair!"
Always happy to see big daddy. Also happy to see little overflows oozing or whatever takes your interest.
it's mesmerizing, you'd think it would become empty at some point. Even though it's irritating you made 19K friends. There's something about your voice that that I like to hear. You live so close to the lava flow is why your videos are so captivating. I noticed other videos out there are enhancing with filters and yours is the real thing. It's very nice to not hear about politics.
I enjoy seeing your videos, You and FOBOS PLANET are the best at capturing these events unfolding, however, I come to your videos over the other guy(s). I feel like im actually there talking to you, I hope to get a tour from you sometime in the future.
I'll be waiting. Really, I cannot wait to meet all of you who come for a visit.
The only thing holding me back is finances lol
I noticed H.I.S. had a back side video. Don't know how he did it, but that is not what keeps us watching you. Your personality is. Gotta be thankful for the good stuff. Eventually it will subside. It does appear that gases are combusting mid air. Not sure if what I think I see is accurate. Appreciate your dedication to making videos even when it is tedious and hard to be "up". Whatever will you do, once it stops? Will you still take us along? Aloha!
Wendy Lady ..Thank you...you just express my feelings better than I could have
Yup, I'll still take you along and we're going to have so much fun!
ApauHawaiiTours Yay!!!
