Scientists monitoring the erupting volcano on the Spanish island of La Palma were able to capture footage of one of the most amazing images ever recorded so far. The volcano seemed to be exploding at a safe distance, but as scientists stood there watching, a chunk of the volcano rolled down the hillside, stopping only yards from one of the scientist's feet.
Lava has covered almost 900 hectares of land, destroying over 2,000 buildings and many banana plantations. More than 7,000 people have had to leave their homes since the eruption started on September 19.
