In 1883, Krakatoa, located between the Indonesian islands of Java and Sumatra, unleashed its fury like never before. On August 27th, an eruption sent ash and volcanic debris shooting thousands of feet into the sky. The explosions were so powerful that they were heard more than 3,000 miles away. As the volcanic activity intensified, massive tsunamis were triggered, causing widespread destruction along the coasts. Entire villages were wiped out, and over 36,000 people lost their lives. The immense power of these waves was unimaginable, reaching heights of up to 130 feet. The aftermath of the eruption painted a devastating picture. Ash and debris covered the surrounding areas, plunging them into darkness. The volcanic ash clouds formed a global impact, affecting the climate for years to come. Sunsets around the world became more vibrant due to the particles in the atmosphere. #Krakatoa #VolcanoEruption #Exploration #NaturalDisaster #WorldWonders #ExtremeAdventure #Travel #History #Geology #VolcanicActivity #Indonesia #Disaster #Documentary #Science #Educational #NaturePhotography #Catastrophe #VolcanicEruption #AmazingPlaces #Exploring
