Dear Iceland,

Please consider shorter names for your volcanoes.

Sincerely,

I guess they're using a massive telephoto lens, but still, if a big bubble of pyroclastic gas jumped out of that crater, they'd be dead in an instant.

They are very brave cinematographers.

This video is actually not from the eruption in Eyjafjallajökull, this is from the eruption on Fimmvörðuháls that was before the eruption in Eyjafjallajökull.
Fimmvörðuháls is located between two glaciers called Eyjafjallajökull and Mýrdalsjökull. The eruption on Fimmvörðuháls started on 20th of March and ended on 13th of April, the eruption in Eyjafjallajökull started the night after on the 14th of April.

Here's a map of the area: http://en.ja.is/kort/#x=477014&y=347335&z=4
The small glacier on the left is Eyjafjallajökull, the bigger glacier on the right is Mýrdalsjökull and right in the middle is Fimmvörðuháls where this video was taken.

So this isn't Eyjafjallajökull, but actually Fimmvörðuháls, which is near Mýrdalsjökull.

Right, got it.
