Drone Flies Over Volcano Eruption

Sorry 'bout the music.

From PetaPixel:

Drones (we’re talking about the quadcopter kind, not the military kind) are pretty incredible devices… especially when you toss a camera on them. They tend to be a bit expensive though, starting at around $500 for a lower-level one and going all the way up to hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Because of this, the drone footage we usually see is done in a semi-safe environment, where the risk of losing it is minimal. YouTuber Shaun O’Callaghan, however, is a bit more brave — if that’s the right word here — than the rest of us.

Using his DJI Phantom with camera attached, O’Callaghan captured the continuous eruption of a volcano on Tanna Island, Vanuatu.
