Video of the geyser explosion showed huge grey smoke rising over the Biscuit Basin thermal area, raining down debris and rocks.

The March family spoke about witnessing the 'once-in-a-lifetime' event.

    thankfully no one was hurt. the kids will definitely be telling all their friends about seeing a cool explosion.
  • @somcana
    People were not interested in running.
  • People should be paying attention to what's going on with this Hopefully it's nothing volcanic but it might be a hint of things that are yet to come
  • @CurriedBat
    Uhhh... that's a super volcano waiting to explode
  • @D33Lux
    No need to run, its not like 1,500 degree steam couldn't roast you like a thanksgiving turkey.
  • @dannytr204
    adults at the start running and leaving their kids behind 🤣🤣
  • @Sora-wo4oe
    Yeah it's Yellowstone, it's a time bomb, I wouldn't want to walk on a active volcano but I'm glad everyone is safe.
  • This is how it usually starts isn't it? ....I've seen Dantes peak 😮
  • @mattm1401
    Kind of a stupid place for a tourist attraction on an active volcano that can gp off anytime it wants.
  • @manofsan
    Isn't there some SuperVolcano caldera under that thing, which erupts every 100,000 years or so? :cat-orange-whistling: Isn't it about due for a major event?
  • @hanksenkow7313
    WOW! SUPER VOLCANO IN PROÇESS OF RE AWAKENING?? IT'S WAKE UP CALL TIME.
  • @TomTom-xp2jb
    Could this be an indicator of things to come for the Yellowstone caldera? Hope the park rangers take appropriate action and temporarily close it.
  • @treci-dieci9303
    bro is saying run more than actually running. Wow people are stupid.
  • The SuperVolcano underneath Yellowstone burped. They might need to start monitoring for volcanic activity because that could’ve been a very different outcome as far as tourists being hurt or killed by flying boulders and rocks!
  • @lylarose2696
    Yellowstone is coming to life, the biggest volcano in the world.
  • @robertalan4717
    This is not good. That thing has been 'cooking' for centuries.
  • Vent is clearly its throat. I hope that this is not a foretaste of a true volcano explosion
