The volcano in the Sunda Strait whose 1883 eruption is among the most violent in recorded history, and — for this archive — the title of the Ring of Fire episode, East of Krakatoa, that carried the Dynamo Jack segment in 1988.

The whole visual record of the Mo Pai claims sits inside one episode of a travel documentary named after a volcano.
