A 44-acre chunk of the Big Island's Puna coast collapsed into the sea with high-energy pyrotechnics this week, exposing a 60-foot cliff face with a spurting, 6-foot-thick red geyser of molten rock.
Before pic notice the bottom Ridge line, bottom of pic.

After the shelf caved in, again notice the bottom ridge line (rocks) These pics were taken from the same area looking out over the same view.
