Video of tsunami in Irazú Volcano is not recent

August 20, 2019 by Staff News Writer

A video that went viral in WhatsApp groups shows a kind of “tsunami” in the crater of Irazú Volcano. The video is real, but it is not recent.

This was confirmed by a volcanologist consulted about it.

The recording shows the movement of water at the bottom of the crater , apparently as a result of a sliding of material on one of the side walls. The phenomenon was captured from the viewpoint sector.
