Urals extreme lovers climbed the crater of the awakened volcano Agung in Bali. On his journey and the awakening of the volcano, bloggers shot a video, which also used records made with a quadrocopter.
The largest stratovolcano in Indonesia, Agung, on the island of Bali, began an awakening in early September 2017. On October 25, the media reported that the processes in the volcano had intensified dramatically. According to seismologists, the eruption can occur at any time. The population of villages located in the radius of potential damage is 12 km, evacuated. "The area around the volcano is absolutely deserted, the villages - ghosts, inhabited only by abandoned pets," - say the Urals. Several thousand people now live in temporary camps.
Urals made a dangerous journey October 27.
"The ascent was quite heavy not only in physical terms, but also in moral. In fact, you're walking on a huge bomb that can rip at any moment! Closer to the top began to feel a steady smell of sulfur, and we decided to wear respirators. Dawn we met already on top. A spectacle that is so exciting that you forget about all the dangers. As for the state of the volcano. Smoke from the crater was more than we saw in the photo, previously laid out in the network, there were no tremors, but heard a thunder that looked like thunder, although there were no thunderstorms near or far away.
We with great difficulty shot the crater from the quadrocopter because of very strong gusts of wind ", - shared the impressions of friends Ekaterina Katerina Degtyareva.
The Urals note that, despite the danger of ascent to Agung, on the whole, rest on Bali in areas remote from the volcano is absolutely safe. In addition, in case of a volcanic eruption, one can enjoy a spectacular sight from a safe distance.
The last time Agung volcano erupted in 1963. Then 1,100 people died, and the eruption led to some climate changes.
