TRENDING NOW: Amazing drone footage of Icelandic volcanic eruption

With hikers evacuated from the area, this is the best way to get a look at the fissure on volcano in Iceland that had been dormant for years and years.

The volcano is about 32 kilometres from Iceland's capital city Reykjavík and began erupting through a new fissure last month.
