And the guide has been with us, it's family, you know, we've been together for 10 years.

And he's starting to do that.

I don't discuss.

When Macario do that, you know, I listen and I ask the team to do the same thing where maybe half a dozen.

And then I want to talk to him and say, what's going on?

He's on the radio.

And then he gives me the radio.

I'm talking to my logistic chief officer who was at the bottom.

And he said, we're having a tremendous earthquake.

He was saying that the, actually the ground was waving.

It was so bad.

And he was freaking out because he said, everything is avalanching and I'm very puzzled because we are in a very dangerous part of the volcano.

Nothing's happening.

I turn around and then this is when I realized there is dust absolutely everywhere.

Everything that I saw two minutes before, it's gone, just disappeared into a wall of dust.

But nothing's happening where we are.
