This is a really sad story but also a cautionary tale to heed warnings.  Thrw agency in New Zealand had an increased risk warning for tourists as did the tour company.  I am sorry for the people who lost their lives but it’s kind of like when people go to North Korea for a tour.  [/quote]

Does anyone know what "increased risk" means? This is like having a minor surgery and being told there is a risk of death, choking, etc.  We are constantly told about risk and asked to sign waivers.  If there was actual substantial risk, that's totally different.  The documentary makes clear that the volcano had previously erupted in 2013 and 2016 and it was 2019.  It really should have been closed off.[/quote]

I read an article that had the language of the warning.  I think it was pretty clear.  And the warning was issued about a month before the eruption based on increased gas emissions and a recent earthquake.  So it was not a Generic warning.[/quote]

The survivors shared the language that was provided to them by the tour companies. The level of risk was not well communicated.
