Incredible footage posted online captured Papua New Guinea’s Tavurvur Volcano eruption — in addition to the ensuing sonic boom.
The video, posted to Facebook earlier this week, shows several individuals nearby on a boat react in shock when they see ash spew into the sky.
Then the apparent cameraman makes a keen observation, warning others to “watch out for the aftershock” because “it’s coming.”
Moments later, a sonic boom ripples through the area, making an extremely loud bang.
