I'm morbidly curious to see if there will be any footage of the big eruption. Everything I've seen so far appears to be from the previous eruptions in Dec and Jan. I'm sure many of them aren't visible but lightining detectors counted 5-6k strikes per minute for the first few minutes. ~190k total. I can't imagine.

Is this what you’re looking for? satellite footage: https://twitter.com/wonderofscience/status/1482280041799385092?s=20 https://twitter.com/wonderofscience/status/14822800417993850... https://youtu.be/u-OfbNwWjDc https://youtu.be/u-OfbNwWjDc

  That's all from space. I'm guessing they mean, as I also mean, on the ground footage that isn't getting off the island yet due to the connectivity issues.

    Yes, i should have been more specific. Video of the eruption and atmosphere effects from ground level.

    Maybe there were people out on boats and filming, only that they are gone now..

It was captured by weather satellites. Someone put together at least one video of the explosion here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zoMRwyNhqJ4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zoMRwyNhqJ4

There is some footage from the ground. The space footage is time lapse so it happened a lot slower in real time. It was actually multiple eruptions in rapid succession in random directions. I have not seen one of the initial eruption though.

  I believe the footage from the ground that's been going around was from the previous eruption in December.

There's some faraway and not very interesting footage from those who captured the sonic boom of the explosion (the boom is rather impressive, though). With any luck, we'll get better videos once internet access has been restored.
