Explore the hidden risks of volcanic lakes in the BBC Horizon documentary "Killer Lakes," narrated by Martin Shaw. These lakes, often calm on the surface, can hold deadly gases beneath, posing catastrophic risks to nearby populations. The documentary covers the tragic 1986 disaster at Lake Nyos, where a sudden release of carbon dioxide claimed over 1,700 lives, and raises concerns about other lakes like Lake Kivu, which threatens millions.
