But, but, but...active volcanoes are so cool!

You do have a point though. There is a huge risk.

Ive got an idea, DONT CLIMB AROUND ON AN ACTIVE VOLCANO!!! I wonder if they would get the same thrill by jogging down the centerline of a busy highway at night wearing a black body stocking.

Hahahaha. It did get a few people. Some dead some missing. Mother Nature is tempermental. Either that or Pele is visiting Japan.

Too many people in harms way. Some like the danger... thrill seekers tempting Mother Nature.

Incredible fotos!
And let me tell you, the last thing you want when escaping an erupting volcano is a traffic jam on the way down. Not that I have much experience with that but I have camped on Mauna Loa overlooking an active volcano.
Mahalo for sharing.
