A little research and I learned that it erupts several times per year. It’s not like it happens every thousand years, and those poor bastards just happened to be there. A little herd thinning isn’t all bad.
Worst. Travel. Agent. Ever.
Only the stoop-ed ones.
I mean, I would. It’s unlikely 3 seconds either direction would save me from a Volcano…
I would not want to be with in a 100 miles of a volcano showing signs of activity. My opinion though
Farther. See Mt. St. Helens 1980
The fact that Mt. Etna is an active volcano just makes visiting even less smart. What the hell? Don't they sell Italian shoes anymore? What makes this a good vacation idea? Seriously did your almost ready for divorce partner book this trip?
Well the Italian shoes are made in Chyna now so that secret is out. Back to conning tourists. Do u know Italy has the most amount of pickpockets by their citizens?
The pickpocketing I assumed. What can you shop for if the shoes are gone?
They’re big into fashion and brand names.. all made in Chyna and stitched partially in Italy I’d assume. Then there are the museums, wine, and food. I’d rather stay home and drink wine and lurk GAW with Italian scenery in the Background TV tbh..lol
Italian shoes are still made in Italy...... by the Chinese owners..... in Italy..... so they can say that the shoes are still made in Italy.
The fact that Mount St. Helens was a dormant volcano made it powerful. Etna is not going to erupt like Mount St Helens
That is the most nonsensical thing I have heard all day, and I've been reading Democrat pearl clutching.
PLEASE explain and make that make sense.
Etna has been erupting pretty regularly for like 600 years. So it routinely releases its energy. It also has five craters. So there's exposure to the air for this energy.
Mount St. Helens since it was dormant looked like a regular mountain.
There were no craters. The volcanic activity was basically capped. The top of Mount St. Helens was covered in snow and ice. Several glaciers were up there. It was not associated with lava and hadn't erupted in 130 years.
So all the volcanic energy was inside which means the heat could build up. There were several small earthquakes before the eruption which allowed more flows of heat and lava and stream . And when the energy built and built and built. That pressure increased tremendously You can actually see that the mountain was bulging up top prior to the eruption.
If you have an understanding of how a pipe bomb works, or firecrackers, it's when you seal something up that ou create a bigger explosion because the gases have nowhere to escape to and they build and build until the pipe finally blows.
Mount St. Helens was like a bomb ready to go off. After the eruption, it now has a massive crater. Because the top of the mountain blew off.
Edna is just throwing a lava and steam and ash into the air.
I'm not sure anyone was even hurt from this.
Several hundred miles were devastated when Mount St. Helen's went off because it was dormant
YES!!! I feel the same way about earthquakes too! I avoid earthquake prone areas since there apparently is not an advance warning lol
Earthquakes are not a big deal.
Grew up in So Cal and went through many in 50 years, not as big a deal as people make them out to be.
For what it’s worth, I lived out there in the 80’s. At that time, the San Andreas was 50 yrs overdue (according to professor what’s her name at Cal Tech, who didn’t get good readings of the Whittier earthquake because…the seismographs fell onto the floor - yep, they weren’t secured…but I digress). Supposedly now relief of the pressure outside LA is more like 75 years overdue. It was estimated that when it hits, the streets in downtown LA would have 14 feet of glass rained down. I care not to be there.
We wouldn’t get out of bed for anything less than a 6.5.
I'm still a HARD NO being anywhere the ground can open up under my feet at any given moment. I'll keep my hurricanes lol
Cabal will either get you with a volcano, earthquake, hurricane, random acts of flooding, or wildfires. If none of those conditions exist, then most likely they will get to you with skinny pants masked leftists screaming about their gender choices.
Edgar Cayce said "watch Mt etna"
Why are the Russian’s doing this?
racism
Naw, it's Climate Change. And Homophobia.
Obviously brought on by micro-plastics in the nearby Mediterranean & Adriatic seas. Couldn’t have been anything else.
NOOOO!!!! Not homophobia any longer!!!! TRANSphobia is the new "thing" kek

Duh! Play on an active volcano, be prepared to become a pillar of volcanic ash. Idiots! Why even bother being a part of the human race anymore when there is this much dumbness surrounding us.
Brings to mind the Swalwell fart animated gif...
Just illustrating...

Thanks for the assist, Q2019.
Volcano sight seeing tours have been canceled for the day. We have 20% off tickets to swim with sharks if you are still willing to test your fate.

I so miss Joan! One of my favorites of hers that cracks me up, talking about aging is, "My next bra is going to be a 36 Long!" 🤣😂🤣😂
Payable ahead of time.

NO need to Journey to see it people, IT is coming to see you......
"Thanks Dog. That was a forgotten Cool! "
...doggy winks...
...one of the all time great live albums...
Kind of makes me think of this song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9AUEjzVQwKo

I was at the Visitor Center in 2006 when it had a minor eruption. Most people just stood there, we GTFO.
You were the only wise ones...
Yep
I don't know this, and I doubt that you know it too, since there seems to be no evidence that underground nuclear tests reliably cause earthquakes. A search on the question comes up with nothing confirmatory. Where is your source?

MAP of Mount Etna for the geography challenged
Those probably aren't as much tourist as they are little attention grabber freaks looking for some opportunity to video themselves in some scene that will garner them clicks, views, shares, drive their pathetic "look at me" craving.

Is there a District Court that could issue an injunction to stop this blatant abuse of our planet's CO levels?
These volcanos have no right to flagrantly violate our fragile ecosystem with eruptions that server no purpose other than to further contribute to climate change.
AI sez... It's frequently depicted as a prison for monsters, a forge for the gods, and a gateway to the Underworld. In some myths, it's also the location of a cattle herd belonging to Helios, the sun god
Wikipedia sez... In Greek mythology, the deadly monster Typhon was trapped under this mountain by Zeus, the god of the sky and thunder and king of gods, and the forges of Hephaestus were said also to be underneath it.

Well one thing I can say for those tourists, they got their moneys worth.
A day after meloni goes viral for calling out France destabilization of Africa and causing mass migration?
Get all excited about Etna (tourists flee), but ho-hum for Mauna Loa (tourists come)?
