Volcanoes
The volcano with blue ‘lava’ and a lake of pure acid…
With a lake of pure acid and strange blue flames that emanate from beneath the volcano, Kawah Ijen is surely one of the most dangerous places to work in the world. Yet people risk their lives to work at the crater… geologist Dr Glyn Williams-Jones and filmmaker Régis Etienne explain why.
Volcanoes shape the land we live on today; they create mountains and build new sea floors and make way for new land to be formed.
This mind-blowing series asks a whole host of questions about these active life forces, and how some are similar but some are vastly different. From volcanoes in the Antarctic and Iceland, to the fasting flowing lava in the world, watch the full series of #Volcanic on BBC Earth Lab YouTube
