On December 19, 2019, unusual activity was recorded at Arboletes mud volcano in Colombia. Some powerful degassing occurred in the middle of the crater sending bubbles of gas to the surface.
I don't know if such powerful bubbling is only a sign of an imminent eruption of it is an explosion itself:
In any cases, I wouldn't like living in one of those 'houses' in the vicinity of that Colombian mud volcano.
According to experts, this phenomenon is normal and occurs once a month, or every two to three months - they actually don't know.The mud volcano is located in the Santa Fe de la Plata corregimiento and has had eruptions in 2006 and 2010.
The volcano forms a dome of 600 meters in diameter for a height of 8-10 meters, with two summit mouths, with respective dimensions of 50-60 meters and 3 meters in diameter.
It's a very well-known tourist destination for the medicinal benefits of its mud, which allows people to float and swim on the surface. Continue reading

Comment: A viewer of the video reports notes:
The reporter says that the outgassing is normal and happens once or twice every month or two, as it's been happening for the last 30 years or so, but that social media picked up the video and that's why it became news. He kind of protests too much, which I think it's because, as he says himself, it wouldn't be good for local tourism if people got worried and scared. He says that tourists were already bathing in there the same day, and that the event lasted for around a minute. That according to experts it's actually good that there is a regular release of gasses (he doesn't say why, but I assume it's because the accumulation of gasses could result in a much larger event). So nothing to worry about, he says.
