REYKJAVIK, Iceland (AP) — A long dormant volcano on the Reykjanes Peninsula in southwestern Iceland flared to life Friday night, spilling lava down two sides in that area’s first volcanic eruption in nearly 800 years.

781 to be exact, while the “The Fagradals Mountain volcano had been dormant for 6,000 years.”

It is mostly a low-key affair as eruptions go, more seepage, not explosive, but this drone video is very cool – Check this out.
