Volcanoes are as strong as thousands of nuclear bombs. If they can send dust and ash across oceans and whole states, then they can easily send the dust and ash up a few mountains.

it is a little more complicated then a few mountains....I mean lots of mountains big ones does anyone live in co?then you know what I am talking about..
Well, unless your mountains are over 15 KM high then you're no safer than the rest of us.
"Large, explosive volcanic eruptions inject water vapor (H2O), carbon dioxide (CO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), hydrogen chloride (HCl), hydrogen fluoride (HF) and ash (pulverized rock and pumice) into the stratosphere to heights of 16–32 kilometers (10–20 mi) above the Earth's surface"

Theres one like that here, but its dead now, the last eruption blew it out. Pumice from the explosion reached China. Its now a massive crator lake, called lake Taupo, its dead in the center of the North Island, visible from space so long as you dont go too far away from the atmosphere.
I would probably think it sounds cool also if I wasn't in the kill area.

does anybody have any information on this, if so post it here because it is supposed to erupt soon, last time it erupted the kill zone is said to have been over 600 miles in diameter, Mt. saint helens was said to be equal to 100,000 nuclear bombs going off at once. Well guess what. This is supposed to be 10,000 times more then that.
quick note the kill zone means the people who are killed instantly this is not to say that many more people would not die.

An eruption with the magnitude of 1,000,000,000 nuclear bombs could also trigger massive earthquakes all across the globe. 1 hydrogen bomb leveled a large portion of Hiroshima, killing around 80,000 (check numbers). This eruption would kill almost everybody.
