A drone operator has attracted a lot of attention for this amazing video he shot inside of an erupting volcano.

Shaun O’Callaghan piloted the drone into Yasur volcano on Tanna Island, Vanuatu. The drone enabled the camera to get much closer than a helicopter, as you can see by a couple of close calls. You can read more about the video at dronehire.org.
