Vesuvius the Volcano

So after that grotesque post, I give you Mt. Vesuvius up close. Yes, I ignored my own advice and climbed up an active volcano. For science!



Climbed all the way up to the crater.

See the smoke on the right side?

The veiw is stunning. The fertile soil allowed a dense forest to grow around the volcano.

All these people will most certainly die the next time Mt. Vesuvius erupts. I know it happened a long time ago but don't theose corpses serve as any warning?
