[00:12.67]Why does Tazieff risk his life like this?
[00:18.70]Haroun Tazieff, the Polish scientist,
[00:23.19]has spent his lifetime studying active volcanoes and deep caves in all parts of the world.
[00:32.84]In 1948, he went to Lake Kivu in the Congo to observe a new volcano which he later named Kituro.
[00:44.35]Tazieff was able to set up his camp very close to the volcano while it was erupting violently.
[00:53.50]Though he managed to take a number of brilliant photographs,
[00:57.89]he could not stay near the volcano for very long.
[01:02.04]He noticed that a river of liquid rock was coming towards him.
[01:07.83]It threatened to surround him completely,
[01:11.43]but Tazieff managed to escape just in time.
[01:16.16]He waited until the volcano became quiet and he was able to return two days later.
[01:24.38]This time, he managed to climb into the mouth of Kituro
[01:29.37]so that he could take photographs and measure temperatures.
[01:34.27]Tazieff has often risked his life in this way.
[01:38.24]He has been able to tell us more about active volcanoes than any man alive.
