Chunk of Lava Strikes a Camera Drone Flying Over Volcano Twitter 0 comments The recently awakened Fagradalsfjall volcano in Iceland has been burping up and drooling lava since March. And nearly the whole time drone pilots—the real MVPs of nature photography in 2021—have captured the epic scenes of spewing lava from above. At the peril of their drones’ safety too, as this quick clip of a chunk of lava nailing a DJI Phantom demonstrates. Peta Pixel picked up on the harrowing, six-second clip, which is brief but thrilling. German drone pilot, photographer, and filmmaker Daniel Haussmann, is responsible for the video. The slice of footage comes from one particular pass over one of Fagradalsfjall’s spewing fissures.
