Ginormous clouds of ash have exploded from Mount Etna, triggered by an avalanche of boiling rock hurtling down the side of the volcano.
Tourists visiting the Italian volcano were forced to run for their lives after a ginormous ash cloud erupted behind them.
Residents in nearby towns and cities could see the dramatic cloud begin to dominate the skyline, with ash beginning to settle on buildings and roads.
A livestream of the volcano captured the terrifying moment and users can watch the cloud descend over the island.
Activity has calmed in the last hour but the threatening grey cloud is still visible.
Mount Etna, located on the eastern coast of Sicily, is one of the most active volcanoes worldwide and has been going through an especially active period for the last five years.
Last summer, the volcano caused chaos at nearby airports as they were forced to limit and divert flights as pilots struggled with visibility.
