A nature explorer captured on video a spectacular volcanic eruption in Iceland that shows lava shooting into the air.

The volcano, which lies under a glacier, started erupting 12 days ago.

It's also emitting toxic gases, so children and those with respiratory problems are being advised to stay indoors.

According to the Wall Street Journal, scientists have traced the volcanic gases as far away as Norway and Finland.
