I've seen a couple of documentaries over the years about Cumbre Vieja's potential to cause global devastation by way of a collapse causing a Tsunami. I'll be quite happy for Mother Nature to put a hold on that particular event until after humankind has wiped itself out. Or at least until I'm back at 330m above sea level.

I have seen those too but apparently the author' views have been rubbished because for the whole section of the mountain to slip into the ocean you would need a violent eruption and severe earthquakes at the same time. Didn't I read that there had been a 3.5 earthquake? Not big by any means but who knows what is to come.
Head for the hills.

Still, it doesn't look like a particularly healthy place to be at the moment, judging by the reports on TV.
