Starting a thread of Twitter volcano gifs and what they show for small COVID feed breaks.
This is a pretty small eruption of Colima in Mexico a few years ago. It showers hot rocks onto the flanks & the ash plume is pulverized rock/glass/crystals, and gas.

This is clearly fake but honestly who can't relate to a banana running away from an erupting volcano right now.

This lava lake smile was briefly visible at Kilauea a few years ago. It formed when hotter lava was visible between cooler crust plates on the lake surface.

This actual hose of lava was at the Kilauea Komokuna ocean entry in 2017. Note the boat for scale (I would not recommend being that close). Longer video below. https://twitter.com/janinekrippner/status/1237053809836339200

This one goes viral every few weeks it seems, because VOLCANOES ERUPTING FROM SPACE. Ahem. Taken from the @Space_Station this is Sarychev on 12 June 2009. You can see the ash plume, & pyroclastic flows down the flanks. More info here: https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/11446 

I have seen a surprising amount of people ask on Twitter if this is real. The answer is so much nope. Volcanoes can erupt pink-ish ash plumes (happened at Kilauea in 2018), but never this fabulous.

This gif is Bárðarbunga in Iceland during 2014-15. There is a lot of mind-blowing, gorgeous footage that came out of this eruption. 10/10 recommend falling down a YouTube rabbit hole for this one.

This dramatic gif is fake. The original video shows the woman slipping into water, not lava. There are a few variations of this gif out there. She wouldn't be standing that close to lava wearing that, it would be way too hot.

This incredible gif is Calbuco volcano in Chile, on 22 April 2015. This huge eruption had little detected warning. The full original video is here:

This is one of my favorite volcano gifs. I am sorry to report that it is fake. Baby dinosaurs didn't actually erupt from a volcano. It's from the @barenakedladies "Odds Are" music video:

This gif shows lava flow inflation & outbreak lobes (sped up). The lava behind it is inflating (thickening) because there a cooler more solid crust has formed, the lava keeps flowing from behind, then it breaks through in these lobes. This is typical pahoehoe lava.

This gif is an eruption at Mount Tavurvur in Papua New Guinea producing a shock wave & ash plume in 2014. You can watch the video (and hear the sound!) here:

Yup, this is actually cooking food on a lava flow, but it's an experimental lava flow, not a natural flow. You can see more of the Syracuse lava flow project here: http://lavaproject.syr.edu/ 

This gif is a pyroclastic flow at Sinabung in 2014. Hot rock (hence the glow or incandescence) is collapsing to form a fragmenting cloud of hot volcanic ash (rock, glass, & crystals) and gas. This is an incredibly deadly process.
Original video here:

This gif is fake. Volcanoes do not erupt fire. They erupt solid or molten rock (which can be incandescent or glow from the immense heat) products and gas. Recommendation: 0/10.

This gif shows cooler lava plates on the surface of a lava lake. As they move because of the convecting lava below, they pull apart and expose hotter lava. Pretty hot stuff! *ba dum tss*

This gif is fake but honestly we need an explosion of fabulous right now so here we are.

I'm fairly sure that this gif is Eyjafjallajökull in 2010. Love the lightning stroke through the ash plume

This gif shows an ash plume at Popocatépetl. You can see ash rising from the flanks as hot rocks impact the loose deposits.

This gif is fake. It's the eruption scene from the movie Volcano.
No way near as good as Dante's Peak. Just sayin'.
