"An estimated eight injuries logged by medical team here. An amazing 78-year-old lady was very close -- but safely got away," tweeted Morelle. She added that tourists and crew suffered "some head injuries, burns, cuts and bruises," but the incident "could've been worse."
Morelle was told by a volcanologist with her that it was the most dangerous incident in his 30-year career. From the safety of her hotel, Morelle showed the damage one of the boiling rocks caused to a BBC cameraman's coat.
"You can see the massive hole that's melted through -- I can actually put my face through it," she said.
