Lyrics:
Mount Vesuvius is a stratovolcano – perhaps the most famous volcano in the world
In 79 C.E. it went off like a frog in a sock, destroying several Roman towns and settlements nearby
Pliny the Younger (what sort of stupid dago name is that?) left an eyewitness account, which is why this type of volcanism bears his name
In terms of destructive power and threat to human life, this is one of the most deadly of all geological phenomena.
Deadlier than a cave full of funnelwebs
Convergent plate boundaries or subduction zones are where these entities are commonly found
(Me and the missus call the bedroom the subduction zone)
Stratovolcanoes have a distinct conical form, like a ginormous bloody anthill built up from many strata over time
Hardened lava, tephra, and volcanic ash,
ignimbrites, pumice and ob...sidian?
Rhyolite, andesite and volcanic bombs,
dacite, trachyte and lahars – or, as everyone else calls it. Rock!
F-ing geologists.
I’ll shut up for a bit so you can all appreciate Frank’s stick work. The kid’s an effin’ genius.
Nice.
Rockin' hugely there bubba!
A pyroclastic flow is a seething mixture of solid and partially molten rock fragments and scalding gases that cascades down the slopes of this volcanic cone like the froth from a tinny given to ya by a bloke with the DTs
These terrifying features are heavier-than-air emulsions that move much like a snow avalanche –
(only snow we see round here is on the back of Blue’s collar)
As the torrent of destruction rattles downhill, it ingests and heats the surrounding air, which then expands and adds to the effect
The flow can reach a hundred and sixty clicks – that’s faster than a toey teenager rippin’ down the Hume in his dad’s Monaro off to see his girlfriend in Melbourne
The extraordinary velocity of a pyroclastic flow is partly attributed to fluidisation –
I could use some fluidisation! Your shout ya stingy bastard - aaaargh, you wouldn't shout if a shark bit ya!
Exsolving gases keep the ash in constant suspension so larger fragments can float in the matrix. (Top film The Matrix. Had that bloke Canoe Reeves in it. Yeah)…
They are fiercely hot, and toxic to breathe in. They race at phenomenal, hurricane-force speeds endin’ up all over the joint like a mad woman’s breakfast
The people of Pompeii and Herculaneum (the poor italian bastards) were as dead as Jesus before they had time to respond.
The end.
Ripper tune, Boris!
