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
