Evacuation Re-Creation

Filmed for the movie Forces of Nature, actors recreate the evacuation from one of the Montserrat island volcanic eruptions. Advances in detection have saved thousands of lives in recent years. Warned of an impending eruption in 1995, Plymouth, the capital of the island nation, was able to evacuate its population of 6,000. No lives were lost.
