Strokkur was first shot on the camera in slow-mo
Strokkur is a geyser in the geothermal area of Iceland, near the canyon of the hvita river. He is deservedly considered the most active geyser valley Haukadalur in the southwestern part of the country: Strokkur erupts every 4-6 minutes, releasing the water to a height of 30 meters! The authors of the blog The Slow Mo Guys for the first time managed to capture the geyser high-speed shooting with the drone, and even through the lens of a thermal imager!
The temperature of rainwater in the Haukadalur valley is increased by 1 °C decrease in water depth for every 20 centimeters. At a relatively shallow depth, the water temperature reaches the boiling point, and vapor pushes it to the surface. From the outside it looks absolutely incredible: the earth seems to swell and then explode, releasing up a huge column of hot water.
