Nor do I know exactly when it will happen, but my thoughts are possibly within the next few years.

Recently the famous actress Dawn French let it be known that she knows she will die young (ie: without reaching 'old age') and apparently has gone into semi-retirement on Cornwall somewhere which overlooks the sea. This explains why she might not reach old age.

simon dawn French who I respect greatly is morbidly obese, if she lost weight she would live a normal life expectancy ..

additionally the volcano you are talking about is the cumbre vieja on La Palma ..

I have read that there are many different theories .. worst case being that the super heated gas from the volcano makes the water in the cracks turn to steam and hence causes expansion and a section of the island to fall into the sea causing a tsunami that would hit the eastern sea board of america and south coasts of britian ..

It could be a million years from now .. plus other scientists have said that the volcano might slump slowly into the sea not causing a massive tsunami ..

I dont know i dont think cornwall and devon are going to sink in our life time
