La Palma Volcano is known to be an active volcano located in the Canary Islands, Spain.
This caught the attention of several netizens on Twitter gaining more than 6,600,000 views.
The hot lava bomb is shaped like a rough oblong with some sharp indentation probably caused by external pressures from rolling down the active volcano.
Despite not being able to identify the specific dimensions of the lava bomb, they provided a human as a size comparison next to the lava bomb.
