Seeing a lava flow in person is definitely on my bucket list.

Yes you do ! Videos come nothing in comparison, I traveled all over Costa Rica and my second favorite place was a little motel hut in the middle of the jungle right beside a volcano, at night time it glowed.

It’s definitely not and will never be in my bucket list. Some beauty are meant to be appreciated from a far distance

The view in this shot is from about a mile away. Granted, it's possible the whole volcano could go up like St. Helens, but the park geologists closely monitor activity from multiple points, so they wouldn't be caught off guard from such a cataclysmic event. They do a good job keeping visitors safe.

I saw Kilauea erupt like this a few weeks ago and was never in danger.

That’s brand new land being made. Property developers must be ejaculating right now.
