Yup, this is not a drill... someone probably found a recording of the sound the volcano made.

Krakatoa Eruption real sound (1883)-0
Krakatoa Eruption real sound (1883)-0

How the recording was found:
The person who made the video's great-grandfather was apparently walking back to his village when the volcano erupted, his eardrums were shattered and he heard nothing but ringing, when the ringing stopped he apparently found a small box like device and decided to keep it. Generations later, while cleaning the family's house in the village, the person who made the video found the device and it turned out to be a crude sound recorder, the person found a switch and clicked causing the sound recorded above to play.
