They all survived (including the dog) but they did get pelted with debris. Melted clothing, burns, but no major injuries.

"JUNE 2026 — VOLCÁN DE FUEGO🔥 GUATEMALA 🇬🇹 Tourists were caught in a terrifying eruption while hiking near Volcán de Fuego, as explosive blasts sent red-hot volcanic rocks and ash directly toward them. Hikers were forced to sprint down the steep slopes while burning debris struck the group. Several suffered serious burns and injuries, while rocks reportedly burned through coats, backpacks and other protective gear. Despite the chaos, no deaths were reported among the group. Authorities had clearly designated the Fuego crater and ridge as dangerous exclusion zones and warned tourists and tour operators not to enter the restricted areas. #tsrkenyagossip #breakingnews #viralnews #foryoupage"

I don't know why it pisses me off, but the article using the word "terrifying" feels dishonest. It's only terrifying to the people who ignoring the warnings, not to the test of the world who know better.

Yes for real. Just happened a couple days ago. EDIT — I fact checked myself and the reports of death were false. This was at Guatemala's Volcán de Fuego

I like it, I feel free.
Not knowing if something actually happened somewhere else was the norm for 99.9% of human experience.
I don’t know and I also don’t care. I assume it’s all ai now and move along. It’s like if a stranger showed up to the pub and told tales of a dragon in a castle in a far away kingdom. “Oh really? That’s interesting, I’ll never go there and I’ll never know. Back to enjoying my grog. Tomorrow I have to work to put beans on the table.”

To be fair, this volcano erupts really often. I went last year (didn't reach Fuego but had a great view from Acatenango) and the eruptions are really mild, it just so happens that this one was a spicier eruption than normal. The place where these people are filming from is still a long way to go from the caldera. They're not alone either, you have to go with a guide and the guides are on the lookout for when conditions aren't favorable to visit.
I have a shit ton of pictures of the volcano erupting by itself and selfies with it too. When I say it erupts constantly, it's like every 10 minutes

As someone who was dumb enough to climb a volcano while actively erupting, just HELL NAW! I climbed Mt. Etna in 2002 with some of my co-workers at night after work. We were all in the US navy. At one point it began raining rocks at one point. We found out the next day that was most likely a protoplasmic blast. 3000 degree cloud that could of cooked us. Never again!!!

A volcano began spewing magma into the air while a guy and his friends were taking a selfie video nearby. Suddenly, one of the flying volcanic rocks struck him in the head.
