A flight passenger shot the scene from the plane window. The amazing visuals wowed internet viewers, prompting them to react to the natural phenomenon from an angle that people rarely get to see.

Layleigh posted the thrilling video with a caption, "My life has peaked. Nothing is ever topping this. The volcano erupted last night in Iceland."

Her post created a huge buzz on X, prompting users to react to the unbelievable scene.
Several users expressed their concerns over the safety of the flight.
An X user Amanda Sweet (@AmandaSweet_3dx) wrote, "Flying so close? with ashes? Looks like a big risk to me honestly."
Another user Jon Miller (@miller40616), said,"I’m not sure u realize how dangerous this is. Airborne volcanic ash destroys plane engines."
Kayleigh, replied to an user, saying "I don’t know why everyone keeps saying this like I was flying the plane I can’t tell the pilot to move."
An user Maltese Traveller (@MalteseTravel80), who was on the same flight, wrote, "So now I'm torn. We arrived Friday but we're sat on the left so didn't see the volcano. Looking at all flight paths since we moved our return seats to the right hand side (def seats) but this looks like ABC side."
