Has Brian Cox seen this? Are you trying to tell me that *inertia forces* also have an effect on our waves and tides? Everyone keeps saying it's just gravity pulling stuff and I don't see how that can be true after watching this.
Inertia has to do with the movement of mass. When water moves, it has inertia. Wave's can be 'focused' in water as they are in Nazare due to the specific shape of the canyon off of the coast. If the waves come in at the right direction, they can become focused by the shape of the canyon, changing the shape of the wave; in this case causing it have a higher amplitude, ie: a bigger wave. Remember, these waves are moving in a very large column of water, tens to hundreds of meters deep being compressed as they move into shallower water up an underwater canyon vs. a shore wave that may be a few centimeters to a couple of meters crashing on a beach. Tides are one "force" that creates waves. Wind creates waves - Think storm surge. Displacement of water creates waves - Think tsunami's. Tides create waves - Think gravity/moon. Currents in the ocean can cause waves. Interactions between currents can cause freakish large waves - Think Rogue waves.
You two obviously misunderstood the gist of my question? There are numerous factors which affect our tides: Centrifugal, Coriolis, Euler and Gravity are all inertial forces which result from the Earth's axial rotation and our orbital motion around a common centre of mass with the Moon and Sun. The shape of the coastline, amphidromic motion, currents, water depth, salinity and weather also play a part. However, if you were to glance at a selection of the most popular tidal explanations, they will tell you it's just gravity pulling water upwards, and the Earth moves towards the Moon leaving water behind. That is not only a gross oversimplification, but it also shows a total lack of knowledge regarding basic Physics, do you?
@invariant47 So in theory with massive works you could do it, whether or not you'd want to is another thing. Safety would be a big factor, cost, impact on the environment and locals etc...
Back in 1951, the U.S. government considered nuking the floor of the ocean to make a bigger canyon. It was nixed though by the incoming administration the following year.

Why aren't scientists asking why is this obvious riverbed on the bottom of the ocean? How could that happen?? No, they don't ever want to answer a question like that. They'll try to tell you that isn't a riverbed before they would try to explain that one. There was obviously much less water here once upon a time. You'd think they'd want to find out why. But HELL NO.
@@ajcook7777 What is widely known? That the face of the earth had no water on it, but some kind of deluge, carved a river canyon out on what is now the ocean floor. I'm pretty sure that's not taught in any public schools or Institutions of higher learning. But apparently I'm mistaken, so please show me any study, or research attempting to explain how a river canyon was carved out on the ocean floor. Thanks Also, I'm an adult, educated & pretty well read, always wanting to learn more. Appreciate your help.
@@ajcook7777 ...an ignorant 6th grader. the water level until 13000 years ago was much lower, tell the 6th grader it was the ice age, the coast line we have today is nothing like it was, if what we know today as the Nazaré canyon was a river thousands of years ago, i don't know, but it's a possibility.
IN A WORD: ELECTRICITY ! The simplest answer to the titles question, is ELECTRICITY. Indeed the Worlds weather is ultimately controlled by the Planets Electrical behaviour, which reflects the Sun's electrical behaviour, as Professor Kristian Birkeland (Norwegian) Scientist revealed way back in 1903, by his discovery of the electrical connection between Earth & the Sun. Hence today the "Birkeland Currents" that flow across the Universe are named after him. Indeed if weathermen were taught properly, and understood our planets electrical nature, they would be able to reliably forecast Volcanic eruptions and Earthquakes !!!!!! All of which reveals that the idea a single element in our atmosphere (Carbon Dioxide), can affect the Worlds weather is absolute nonsense !!! THE UNIVERSE IS ELECTRIC - THERE ARE NO ISLANDS IN SPACE.
This is insanely stupid to go out there and 'challenge' the waves, after you had a mortal warning... The arrogance and inability to LEARN lessons from experience is what makes us as humanity so prone to disaster! If you want to take footage of waves close up... consider DRONES... You don't need to put your life on the line...or end up forever in a wheel chair just because you want to 'prove' something to yourself... Congratulations Andrew... you did not conquer your 'fear'...you conquered your common sense...
The thing is to live a life as there’s a reason he’s out there. It’s impossible to understand for a person who’s never experienced that. Sometimes you pay the price since he obviously made a mistake. What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.

Chill out @@Xatrene
If you are further interested in this, the tv series ‘100 foot wave’ is a good watch. Cotty features a lot.
The shot of the drone getting straight grabbed out of the sky was worth the vid& hopefully losing it
These people are so brave!
So brave
Andrew didn't break his back. It was the water.
Andrew's collision with the water broke his back 😂
@@comfortablynumb9342 Yet another way of looking at it was Andrew's decision to try and barrel this monster was what broke his back....
Amazing! Great video!!

Obviously local conditions also have an effect on the state of the ocean and waves!
Inertia has to do with the movement of mass. When water moves, it has inertia.

Do you love it remotely 😅
Pacific Oceans 🌊 Hawaii 🌺
Huge graveyard for jet skis. Suppose they wash up on the shore occasionally.
Without watching, i can tell you-wind, wind creates the biggest swells.
Plate shifting does actually

is it possible to artificially modify the seabed to create even bigger waves?

Not sure that's respecting the ocean
Nice. Now a drone and a camera, made of plastic and with chemicals inside the batterie, are malmed and in the sea. Thank you! 👏👏👏
Funny all the fascination. Meanwhile we surf those waves since we're 15/16 yr old.
Sick!
