An Earthquake Shook Our Sailboat | Volcanoes & Earthquakes | Video Podcast Casting Off 051

At 06:00 the boat shook to the sound of thunder: we had just experienced an earthquake at anchor. Roughly 90 percent of all earthquakes and 75 percent of all active volcanoes on Earth occur along the Ring of Fire, and we have been sailing in this seismic minefield for the last ten years. We've experienced a few earthquakes first hand, but never before at sea. In 2022, we arrived in the Sunda Islands where we have seen more volcanoes than anywhere else. In the podcast we try to work out why people choose to live in such a risky area. Back in 2019, we sailed to one of the most famous volcanoes in the world: Krakatoa. We made two video episodes about the experience: Krakatoa: Part 1 - https://youtu.be/A9pxb8NS3LM?si=5WXBwoO02p5POcs- Krakatoa: Part 2 - https://youtu.be/_SGpxxBsQ7s?si=dP5LBpGUL8zFEyvM 👉SUPPORT US on PATREON, FTBMates or the Rum Fund - https://followtheboat.com/pub/ 👉JOIN OUR FOLLOWERS ON DISCORD (It's free!) - https://discord.gg/WGtsJubdkE If you enjoyed this video, let us know with SUPER THANKS! ☝️ Thank you for watching!
