Hawaii's Kilauea volcano erupted in a spectacular display on Friday, as a few lucky onlookers watched molten lava shoot 100 feet into the air.
Some residents got to see Kilauea's 31st display of molten rock since December - an appropriately high number for one of the world's most active volcanoes.
But this is only the fourth time in 200 years that Kilauea has shot lava fountains into the air in repeated episodes.
The previous episodes were in 1959, 1969 and 1983.
The north vent at the summit crater began continuously spattering on Friday morning, before lava overflowed a few hours later and lava fountains shot out in the afternoon.
