Sped up time-lapse footage of the lava flow pouring from a volcano in Hawaii, USA.

The video, filmed on May 25 this year, shows what's known as the June 27th flow, speeding down a hillside.

The filmer later wrote online: "The most major part of this news is that a new flow is also coming out at a lower elevation on the other side is headed towards the ocean and may become the more prominent flow.

"Everyone is hoping for that because the lava almost hit our village last year and it would be a great relief for us to see it flowing towards the ocean instead of towards our houses."

This is a video taken may 25th 2016 of a new Lava river that broke out the day before of the flow called the June 27th flow. The most major part of this news is that a new flow is also coming out at a lower elevation on the other side is headed towards the ocean and may become the more prominent flow. Everyone is hoping for that because the lava almost hit our village last year and it would be a great relief for us to see it flowing towards the ocean instead of towards our houses.
