The volcano erupted like Mordor - the drone recorded everything, and the cameraman delighted with the statement!

Well these Icelanders are truly descendants of the Vikings! Okay, maybe today courage isn’t what it used to be, but this cameraman risked a drone to capture the glorious moment when the Fagradalsfjall volcano decided to erupt. Let's be realistic - have you read the name of the volcano at all?

The scene is spectacular, you have to see from start to finish. 

Crazy Icelanders stand just a few meters from the lava. Vikings, we tell you!

There’s also a night shot that’s just as spectacular, but the volcano doesn’t gush so much.

Bjorn Steinbekk is a great guy, in an interview with Channel 5 News he said he felt like when Liverpool won the Premier League.

“I felt like when Liverpool won the Premier League”

The drone pilot behind this incredible footage spoke to @5_News.

Bjorn says he just had to “take the chance” to get the footage - and luckily the drone survived in one piece.pic.twitter.com/I8z8BFBmFH
