The 2021 Cumbre Vieja volcanic eruption began on 19 September 2021 and lasted for 86 days, making it the longest and most destructive since records began on La Palma.
We had the chance to capture it between October 11th and 16th, getting a small impression of what the local population had to endure for over 3 months.
The lava flow has covered over 1000 hectares, destroyed more than 3000 buildings and caused the evacuation of over 7000 people. Damage is estimated to be close to 1 Billion Euro.

    This eruption started shortly after the unexpected death of our dear and lovely younger sister. Every night I watched the live feed, thankful that the stunning images in red and gold created a warm glow in my room, countering the shocked chill in my mind and heart. Your film is a glorious celebration of the truly awesome nature of our beautiful planet.

    Atemberaubend! Schnitt, Sound, Grading und natürlich die Aufnahmen selbst… ein Traum. Sowas gehört in die Trends und nicht irgendwelche Gamer oder Influencer.

    Incredible footage! And perfect music choice for these scenes.

    Such beautiful imagery, of one of the greatest spectacles a human being can witness. The last minute of this video is so amazingly synchronized with sound and visuals it literally makes the hairs on my arms stand up. Thank you .
  • This cinematography is on another level! It feels like I’m watching an intense movie like Dune (2021) with Hans Zimmer music playing.

    I remember watching this when you released it, and it was truly impressive. It was refreshing seeing something original like this on YouTube. So I was expecting it to have passed several hundred thousand views by now... Sometimes I don’t understand YouTube’s algorithm. This video deserves a lot more attention for sure.
  • This is by far, the best video I have watched about La Palma volcano Cumbre Vieja...I wondered why I did not find it last year...
  • Beautiful and mesmerizing but also terrifying. Amazing cinematography!!👏🌋
  • @DustinFarrell
    Incredible footage Martin! Love those above the cloud moon shots and especially the slow-mo ;)

    Simultaneously stunningly beautiful and terrible. Thank you for making me feel appropriately small in the face of the forces on display here. Superb work.

    This is absolutely the most beautiful film of the La Palma volcano I've seen! You must have spent so many hours. Hats off!
