Iceland volcano: Moment house shakes after series of earthquakes

A couple filmed the moment a violent tremor shook a house in Grindavik, Iceland.

Caitlin McLean, from Scotland, was visiting her boyfriend Gisli Gunnarsson when they were forced to flee to his mother’s home in Reykjavik on Friday, over fears of a volcanic eruption.

Mr Gunnarsson told the PA news agency he feared he might never see his home again.

Authorities have ordered thousands of people living in the southwestern town to leave as a precaution.
