Doggerland comes from the 17th century Dutch fishing vessels, the dogger, which often fished the area now called the Dogger Bank which is almost always underwater
I just thought the inhabitants were getting freaky with each other 😆
Modern humans are generally considered to be something like 200,000 years old, but estimates vary from like 100,000 to 300,000 years or more. In any case, evolution is gradual, so there's no hard line.
Right!
There has never been a baby that was not the same species as its mother.
Our closest cousins, Homo sapiens neanderthalis, or the Neanderthals (not our ancestors!), live alongside us, Homo sapiens sapiens, up until around 30-50,000 years ago.
The people who lived in Doggerland were, biologically, us.
@@eivindkaisen6838 Technically they live on since Neanderthal, Denisovan etc DNA is in us today due to interbreeding back in the day
The greatest threat of a tsunami event to the UK now would come from the unstable geology of the Canary island’s which are suffering volcanic disruption as we speak.
Yes an "earthquake" you were told about in school is the earths plates rubbing or bumping due to the fact they are floating on lava, this was more like fracking, leaving a weakspot that caused over 100 miles of coast to slip
The list of things that cause earthquakes is immeasureble, quite often its deciding where the trigger events ends and the earthquake begins
It's my go-to "extreme fracking" example to anyone who claim it can't be *that bad* - as much as I know we're not operating at these levels, the principle remains.
A planet wants to be round because of gravity. If it spins like Earth does, it will be slightly wider at the equator due to centrifugal force, but it will have an ideal shape for that spin and even the tidal forces caused by the moon, which while obvious in the ocean tides. also acts on the rock too. If a miles-thick sheet of ice disappears, trillions of tons of mass is displaced and the rock beneath it will rise to try and keep the Earth as spherical as possible. This causes the Earths crust to fracture. On top of that, trapped gasses escape, further destabilizing it.
Moons which are close to the gas giant planets have their rocky surfaces constantly squeezed and the stretched by the gravity of their mother planet, and experience constant quakes and volcanic conditions as a result.
On a very low tide here in East Sussex at Winchelsea beach, you can see ancient tree stumps from that period of time sticking up out of the water.
There was once a earthquake and megatsunami in Lituya Bay in Alaska in 1958....Luckily it was sparcely populated. The wave was said to be 1000ft + high...and was witnessed by a father son duo who were fishing on their boat in the bay at the time. It is said their boat actually rode the wave and they survived.....But could you imagine how scary a 1000ft wave would have been if you lived there. If there had been a town near by....crazy.
True that, saw a documentary about that a few years ago..
This is near where I live, just down the road, about 5 miles, is Happisburgh (pronounced Hazeboro) in Norfolk where the earliest evidence of people have been found. Humanoid footprints and a neolithic hand axe. Fishermen often bring up evidence of human activity in their nets. We have fossils in the cliffs, near the sea. There are lots of sand bars off shore. All quite interesting, Doggerland even has a Facebook page. It was this event that created our shore as it is today. Evidence of the flood is found in the English Channel.
Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex will definitely be underwater in a few thousand years, because of coastal erosion and rising sea levels mostly.
Just in my lifetime I have seen major erosion on the East Anglia coast.
The British Isles are tilted on what scientists call a half graben. Tectonically the western area of the landmass is rising and the eastern side is sinking. So the Irish Sea would not have been affected. As geological timescales are difficult to comprehend it’s understandable that folk would find this hard to accept. Doggerland was doomed regardless. The Netherlands and Flanders Belgium will also eventually succumb over millions of years. Tectonic actions are generally slow though occasionally a pressure event will cause a catastrophic outcome in a relatively short timescale. Vesuvius erupting in 79 AD and Krakatoa for example. More recently we have Mt St Helen’s in Washington State, and very far back the meteorite that ended the Cretaceous which resulted in wiping out the Dinosaurs. We live in a tectonically active world but because it is mostly extremely slow (from a human perspective) it appears to be dormant. Geology is a fascinating subject but it requires us to revisit our understanding of time. 😀
It is now called the Dogger Bank, an area of the North Sea that is fairly flat and shallow, often partly surfaced. Well liked by fishermen.
I was quite impressed as unlike many people you were able to differentiate between Great Britain and the island of Ireland.
Today Dogga is an area of the North Sea mentioned on the shipping forecast - together with Fisher, Gurman and Byte... 👍
That's all I know... 🤣
The methane explosions are staring to happen again with increasing measure in Siberia and Northern Canada today... 👍
Siberian tundra is getting pox marked with them especially having experienced 3 summers with temperatures reaching the high 30s...
Most British people will be helpful in pointing a area where you can find some Doggerland as they are quite numerous. If you ever visit Britain just ask at the hotel where the best place to go " Dogging " is. They will draw you a map.
The Toba (Sumatra) volcanic eruption of about 75,000 years ago is estated to have led to the death of about 90% of humanity globally. It very nearly ended us. This is the second last supervolcano to erupt, the first one since humans arrived on the scene. The earth froze for a number of years as a result of the volume of material thrown into the atmosphere blocking the sun. This volcano was at least 12 times greater than Tambora, also in Indonesia, who 1815 eruption caused the "year without a summer" in 1816 (giving rise to Frankenstein and, indirectly, Dracula, but that's another story, another Simon Whistler video).
It took almost 25 years for Toba to be found, which is amazing considering the power it can sneeze out!
@mcchickenz Yeah, pieces of Toba were found in the Arctic. That isn't localised!
I applaud you for bringing history to many more people. It is too easily forgotten, which is very sad, as a history class consisting of a video such as this is so easy to set up.
Bristol is in the South West, below Wales. there is an estuary to the south of wales and Bristol is not far from where it becomes the mouth of the river Severn. waves from the Atlantic, south of Ireland, could quite easily become very large, especially where they hit the north coat of Cornwall.
So interesting fact for you . One of the oldest skeletons foumd in Britain was arround 80.000 year old .. this is when it's believed that Britain had a population of about 20,000 people moving up and down the coast lines .. the skeleton was a women of around 20 years of age .. found in a cave somewhere on the Cornish coast .. apparently they were believed to be fishing for their food . And eating clams osters and other crustaations shallow water fish .. in coastal eateries before gradually moving in land wich was compleatly covers in ancient woodland
You saying "Happy we don't have to deal with this nowadays" made me smile. If half a mountain fell into the sea in the Canaries then it (the resulting tsunami) would take out the East coast of America!
its a well known scientific and geological fear, all the islands of the canaries are sleeping volcanos the one they worry about is i think, is Gozo if and when it goes of it will probably cause half the island to slip into the sea the result will be a disaster of unknown huge proportions, as you say for most of the east coast of the US
The Dogger Bank is a very large submarine reef (And there are still even today, also very rich fishing grounds found there) under the North Sea, lying some 160 km (100 miles) west of Jutland in Denmark!
Doggerland is a geological or archaeological term for the ancient, but now submerged land-link between the island of Great Britain And Denmark, Germany, & the Low Countries. This land-link was apparently severed by this putative, huge seismic event or a series of them, some 8,000 years ago after the final, major, thawing effects & events of the latest ice age had then fully concluded!
"The chances of the being hit by another tsunami are next to 0"...
He says as La Palma is still erupting... 🤣
If the faulting extinct volcano slips into the sea (the erupting one is pushing the extinct one into the Atlantic - there's 2 volcanos on the island of La Palma part of the volcanic Cananery Islands)
- It's goodbye East USA, East Canada, Southen Greenland Southern Iceland, Southern Ireland, Southern England, Western France, Western Portugal, Southern Spain and Western Africa...
Yep ain’t there something like that on RUclips somewhere?
@@pashvonderc381 - There's something exactly like that on the news and documentary programmes like Horizon...
It's easy to find - There's this hive of information, almost like a library, called Google - What you do is type something like La Palma flank collapse into where it says search, and a whole list of relevant information comes up - What you do then is click on the one supported by the most scientists...
That way you stay clear of the majority of RUclips's under researched bullshit - like flat earthers etc... 🤣
@@BassandoForte By Jaysus, many thanks for the step by step info, I was beginning to wonder where I went wrong 🤪🤣 I did what ye said and “ Ding🔔” a million and one choice 👍. Just one question.. How do I adjust the volume ?
@@pashvonderc381 - 🤣 nice comeback... 👍
@mcchickenz - Google doesn't exist around your parts then I presume..?? 🤣🤣
"How does something on the surface cause an earthquake?" - Take weightlifting weights and drop them on the floor. Now do the same with a whole coastal region. Also, drop it into water.
Even know the sand bar that was dogger land , is now called dogger bank at low tide its possible to play cricket be it in a few ins of water this happens a few times a year,
In Britain for me the most heartfelt in our lifetime was this one although man made: The Aberfan disaster was the catastrophic collapse of a colliery spoil tip on 21 October 1966. The tip had been created on a mountain slope above the Welsh village of Aberfan, near Merthyr Tydfil, and overlaid a natural spring. Heavy rain led to a build-up of water within the tip which caused it to suddenly slide downhill as a slurry, killing 116 children and 28 adults as it engulfed Pantglas Junior School and a row of houses. The tip was the responsibility of the National Coal Board (NCB), and the subsequent inquiry placed the blame for the disaster on the organisation and nine named employees.
Earthquakes can even be set of by human activity. For example the weight of the Hoover Dam set of lots of local earthquakes.
17 minutes in the weather on film getting cold connor puts on a fleece
The point is that the land was relieved of the weight of millions of tons of ice that had been pressing it down and so began to rise. The Norwegian shelf collapsed, dropping millions of tons of earth into the sea causing the tsunami. The British isles are still rising at an uneven rate
& tilted, so some areas lifting while others are sinking. Doggerland is named after Dogger bank,
a large sandbank in the middle of the North Sea, the highest part of the flooded area. This has been a favourite fishing ground, & Doggers were Dutch fishing boats. It could happen as a large area of Norway coast has been found to still be unstable,& things are still warming!
All lifeforms evolve to fit the current environment, and therefore any change to that environment will nearly always be a bad thing for them. Not to mention the transitions are nearly always volatile - earthquakes, tsunamis, eruptions etc. But in the long run, life finds a way and we evolve to suit the new environment as well as our ancestors evolved to suit the last... That is unless we go extinct, but we're 3.7bn years in and our ancestors have always managed so far :)
It was not only Britain it happened to but also part of Denmark
He asks could it happen again. There was a tsunami from a similar area that flooded the Bristol channel area in the early 17th century.
Siberia, Russia is a perfect example of melting permafrost and it houses a tons of green house gases. so the more it melts the warming it gets, the warming it gets, the quicker the permafrost melts, quicker the permafrost melts fast the cow gases enter the atmosphere
Ur other channels are dope too.. Keep it up bro..
Your channel is excellent sir thanks Scotland 🏴
The building of the the Hoover dam caused multiple small quakes and the Orville dam caused a 5.7 due to the weight of water behind them.
The worst-ever natural disaster for the human species was probably the Toba supervolcano eruption in Sumatra 74,000 years ago. It’s thought that the human race was reduced to between 1,000 and 10,000 breeding pairs (1,000 - 10,000 individuals) worldwide. There’s also evidence of genetic bottlenecks around that time in other species, too - chimpanzees, orangutans, macacques, cheetahs, and tigers.
The layer of ice during the ice age was think enough to predd down on the tactonic plates, so when that ice is gone, it the plates start making movements, hence the eartquakes. Or so I understand.
Whether or not I got it wrong about the tactonic plate part, it still remains a fact that the ice pressed down upon large portions of land, which when the ice melted quickly started moving upwards, causing frictions against parts of the earth that wasn’t moving.
And when enough force is put into system that is held together by friction, there is a breaking point where the two objects start to suddenly move. That breaking point is basically when we get earthquakes.
It doesn't push the plate down but the weight of it does compress the land
Worst global natural disaster? Possibly the 535AD event when either Krakatoa or Tierra Blanca Joven in El Salvador went ballistic.
Not all earthquakes are caused by mantle changes. It’s a matter of subsidence and follows Newton’s laws. This is cause and effect. Energy is transferred by changes in the crust too. If a large volume of the continental shelf collapse then energy is released. That energy has to go somewhere and in this case it would result in a Tsunami. Now Doggerland was already close to sea level so the resulting Tsunami along with the melting icecaps and the Canadian deluge would be a perfect storm affecting the sea level in general. Doggerland was therefore inundated and could not recover. Icecaps hold a tremendous amount of water. Even today with icecaps melting our coastal cities are in danger. Whether we know this or not we are still living in an Ice Age, albeit a warm period. We humans, have affected our climate to such a degree that we are changing our planet in decades what would normally have taken hundreds of thousands of years to do.
My guess is that the worst natural disaster that has taken place since the appearance of homo sapiens is the last time the Yosemite Super Caldera blew up, covering half the world in ash and drastically changing the weather for decades. I remember hearing that we almost went extinct, based on chromosomal ancestry. But that's way in pre-history, since there was no writing and no records.
External pressure on tectonic plates causes earthquakes too. Dam builders discovered this in the 50's. The weight of the water on the previously untensioned tectonics had the effect of causing earthquakes, sometimes quite far away. If the ice caps were to melt it wouldn't just affect sea levels. The whole axis of weight (on which we spin) of the planet would be, as all the weight would be redistributed. changed. Like setting a gyroscope spinning then shifting the weight distribution/point of balance. It affects the rate of spin and the cant. It isn't just rising sea levels and tidal currents that effect the weather. Move the two polar anchor points north and south redistribute the weight.......on something spinning and rotating. Forget about a 1 degree change in temperature what about a 1 degree change in the Earth's cant?
Before the tsunami rivers used to flow from Germany , Denmark etc down the English Channel and out to the Atlantic these can still be mapped .
Snow across Britain and Northern Europe was up to a mile thick so when it melted all the weight was off the land so it started to rise , at the moment southern England is very slowly sinking down were as Scotland is very slowly rising so the UK is tilting.
When the last flooding of Dogger Bank happened lots of animals ( including prehistoric ) got trapped and died and their bones are still getting caught up in fishing nets regularly .
the ice falling into the sea disrupted a sand shelf under water .
It could have been the source of new religions, new gods, new mythology like the floods and parting of the seas... Imagine the comprehension of the events and how early mankind would or could have interpreted it?
There is thought to be a fault line on one of the Canary Islands which if it gives way will result in half the island disappearing into the Atlantic Ocean, causing a tsunami that will cross the ocean and devastate the Eastern seaboard of the United States.
Actually, there's no record that we thought the earth was flat, whatshisface, that sailor explorer actually thought the earth was pear shaped. A New York author in the early 1900s wrote about the earth being flat and that as far as I know is where it started.
Climate change is definitely not always for the worse, up untill 10,000 years ago the climate was going through constant periods of ice ages then thawing then back to ice ages. This stopped 10,000 years ago when the climate leveled out and the global temperature moved to a less than one degree change (it only take a very small change in the global temp to mess things up, hence why at the currently climate conference their goal was less then 2 degree change) this was completely necessary in early development of human civilisation as before the climate had been too unstable to make roots in one place hence nomadic hunter gathers for 100,000 - 200,000 years before that. The reason it always seems like a bad thing is because for the climate to change there has to be wide scale events that affect the whole world and are incredibly violent, earth quakes, volcanoes, crazy storms, wildfires, sea rise etc. etc.
It hasn't stopped it's still doing it the constant changes were actually over far longer than 10k years intervals
The worst natural disaster in human history... well, around 75,000 years ago, a big volcano in Indonesia erupted. It produced between 2,000 and 3,200 cubic kilometers of ejecta, with the result that there would have been a global winter lasting about 10 years. It may have reduced the population of humans to between 3,000 and 10,000.
technically the biggest natural disaster in the history of humanity would be the ice age, from a species of hundred's of thousands spanning several continents humanity was almost wiped out with only 5000 - 7000 individuals remaining.
If water could be got to the Quattara depression (North Africa) which lies below sea level, a lake, thousands of square kilometres in size could be created out of an uninhabited, useless, low lying salt marsh. A Suez Canal type project to irrigate would change the whole region. Death Valley is the same. Below sea level desert. But if you were to mess with that you're messing with some really fragile tectonics. But hypothetically, the desert could be made to bloom. It only requires the will to do it.
Connor. Plz react to some EPIC RAP BATTLES OF HISTORY.. hilarious, factual, smart and very well done. ✌🇮🇪
Very interesting topics! I think too that humans are about 1 million years old.
theres a mesolithic and roman site just up the road from me on the forth river .
Earthquake are the land moving and shaking but not always because of tectonics, tectonics is the majority cause of earthquakes but not the only cause.
The big landslide happened under the sea. The populations mentioned are pure guesses with no basis. He says 25 percent died. I imagine it was a lot higher than that.
It wud have been in memory that life had changed. The flood followed down in memory n pushed people away from shore n u get more mountain tribes n inner UK population grew.
Urghh why does this guy not sound like this on his older videos? 🤔 it's like he hams-up the 'RP' accent lmao. Oh well, works for him I guess.
But I see right through it, especially if you've heard his real voice 😂. Good reaction as always though Connor, hope ya doing well. Doggerland is fascinating to learn about. Especially the objects they've fished up, made by humans, at the bottom of the sea
I'd like to make a suggestion for a reaction, The Gravel Institute, David Cross, Why America Sucks at Everything. The Gravel Institute is a bit like Second Thought channel that you watched, why America treats their citizens so bad. It might be an interesting view.
There are shelves of land across the Atlantic that make New York City high risk for this.
The worlds deadliest natural disaster from our perspective would be the Younger Dryas, both the start, middle and end of it lol
Climate change is not always bad for humans. The retreat of the ice sheets allowed us to move into Europe. Thing is, we were nomads then. Since then we've settled, bred crops that only grow in a very narrow band of conditions, and built our entire economy on massive resource extraction and just-in-time deliveries required to support the enormous populations of our low-lying coastal cities. We've given up adaptability and made ourselves extremely vulnerable, so any change from the current climate is dangerous to our civilisation.
Neanderthals only went extinct about 40,000 years ago, and although very similar to homo sapiens, you would be able to tell we were a different species.
At around 11:54
In this very video it is explained that the post ice-age warming produced paradise-like conditions on Doggerland.
So no; climate change is _not_ always 'bad' for us.
But as you rightly point out, terms like 'good' or 'bad' are meaningless when applied to nature.
They are only relevant when considered on scale such as human comfort or stability.
I guess just like in current news and just as seen here, a mild improvement over time is not news. What we seem to want to hear about are the massive, sudden changes. And thanks to entropy, those are overwhelmingly more likely to be disasters.
Connor, you really don't have to go back that far to find another slightly different species to homo sapien. You only really need to go back just 10,000 years before you can go into the territory of Neanderthal man. They have a slightly different build, a smaller brain, and stronger bones. They would know only had rudimentary language skills.
So you don't have to go back millions of years.
interplate earth quakes are a thing. The can be caused by travelling or rising magma, or in this case it was the methane gas. Climate change is effecting the whole world. So far our summer's have improved here in the UK but we aren't getting enough rain and its too warm.
This is pretty crazy and not something i knew of. But i do believe there will eventually be a natural disaster at some point probably not in my life time because a click of a finger there's sink holes that are swallowing cars and in some cases houses for sure sink hole have always been a thing and not something you really heard of but they have become much ore popular. Luckily in the UK we don't have huge natural disasters although due to a lot of rain fall we do have floods of streets and houses taken over by water which ruins family homes luckily for us our houses are made of brick so houses can be recovered once the water as finally drained away and you have aired the house out but even still it turns peoples life's upside down. And along with heavy rain fall we get heavy winds which results in a lot of damage it was only a couple of weeks ago a huge tree literally blew over and just missed my kids school.
can you react to the darkest band in history (Mayhem)
Think of this.... Stonehenge was built around this time, on an area inaccessible by sea - NOW, but with raised sea levels, is that how and maybe why they built such a strange series of obelisks?
No because sea levels have been rising the past thousands of years not going down
@@mattsmith5421 We've been told for the past 40 years London will be under water, Skegness will disappear under the sea, and - well - they're still there...
But as you say rising water levels have been going on for thousands of years, actually clinate change is constant as long as there is a climate, there are cycles on a timescale so vast no one can see a pattern. Doggerland disappeared under the sea 6,500BC there wasn't any industrialisation, over farming etc there, just a natural occurence. Temoeratures rise and fall with Ice Ages and thaws, a thaw we are in right now from the current Ice Age ending.
No one bothers with solar cycles, natural environmental shifts, earthquakes, meteors, large scale fires, natural gas explosions.... Because they don't meet the narrative, and it's all about the current narrative.
No people with brains do include those I don't know why people believe they actually consider things but scientists don't. Everybody knows there are cycles the narrative isn't oh we control the global heat it's apart from a massive volcanic eruption or an asteroid crashing into water the earth hasn't risen in temperature as quick as we've made it do. We are adding extra to natural cycles a lot extra. The narrative is if you're house is on fire and you have to live in it do you add more fire or attempt to stem the flames. Are you implying sea level rise isn't real? It's not hard to find people's stories here on RUclips who bought their beach front property 15 years ago and now have to move because the sea is claiming it. I'm English and over 40 and I haven't heard once that London or Skegness will be under water in my lifetime
@@mattsmith5421 We don't know that, records are at best 1000 years or so, we as a species only gain sentience recently on a cosmic scale, to claim "it never happened before" or "we cause it" is absurd... We're looking at the weather yesterday and screaming like "chicken little" that the worlds going to end because it rained, so we're all going to die in a flood...
Who are these scientists, where is their peer reviewed work and where is the raw data supporting their claims.... Its mainly politicians, activists and the media, and of course they've got nothing to gain from creating panic - do they?
@@daveofyorkshire301 well I wouldn't know I don't follow politicians or mainstream media that's probably why you don't know about scientists and peer reviewed papers in a world of information at your fingertips you still have to ask it's really not hard to research for yourself if you bother. Nobody goes off the weather yesterday apart from fools. No proof that we cause it? Do you think the dinosaurs also burnt millions of tons of fossil fuels too? I get the impression you're one of the people who claims fake as quickly without evidence as these so called mainstream media people you're on about say it's real. Records only go back 1000 years? With that I know I'm wasting my time replying to you
Large landslides underwater will push vast quantities of water away, creating a tsunami on the surface.
an interesting follow up to this video is the RealLifeLore video on the potential Mega Tsunami originating at the La Palma volcano and that might hit the entire eastern seaboard: ruclips.net/video/ViDApGmTFmE/видео.html
As the climate changes, whether naturally or through the impact of humans, the effect varies depending where you are. Whether those changes are positive or negative depends on your circumstances. We are innately conservative creatures who view how things are now as the normal and natural, when there is no such thing as a fixed normal. In fact climate change may turn one area into a desert, while making another more fertile, and people will adapt as you say, the process of change will cause extreme events, it is just forces building up, and energy being released. The big threat to Britain is not the thawing of tundra after the next ice age, but the ice age itself, which is due in geological terms. The valley I live in was carved by a glacier, at its peak where I am would have been covered by an ice field, as was all of Britain other than the barren tundra in the south.
The earth doesn’t care about us. It does what it will do. The problem we have is that in the small timeslice we have existed we have become accustomed to a certain climate and sea level. Now in geological timescale might have learned to change with it. But because we have changed our climate radically in decades and we are unable to deal with it.
Atlantis, Mu Mu, Lemuria, Eden (situated in the Mediterranean and Black Sea basins, dry, fertile, protected from the extreme weather of the "uplands" and the more primitive people who lived there, scraping a living) all went under as the water poured over the Straits of Gibraltar and filled the Med. then over the Dardanelles to fill up the Black Sea. Everything in those paradises and the people and cultures that had evolved was destroyed virtually overnight. Not many survivors, ask Adam and Eve (probably real people, but metaphors too.) They had to now find a place and scrape a living amongst the savages. Atlantis sorta managed to establish a colony before the flood. Greek Culture. Wouldn't be surprised if they had a hand in the pyramids too. Atlantis is somewhere at the bottom of the Med. The Garden of Eden was at the bottom of the Black Sea (look where Hebrew, language and customs/culture "originate". Armenia and they wandered south looking for a new homeland. Oh, by the way Connor, they did try an experiment regarding what was recognisably human. The made up a guy to look like what they supposed a neanderthal to look like and dressed him in a business suit and sent him out to interact. I think there's probably footage somewhere on youtube. Cro Magnon, was a bit dumber than us, but wouldn't look out of place. Actually there's quite a lot of Cro Magnon types still around, lol.
OK ton's and ton's of ice is heavy it weights down the land wich has sank under the weight as ice melted and tumbled down from the land to the sea the land bounced up creating a earthquake, that's it simplified for you ,
We were more devonian n neanderthal until they had cleared the land for agriculture. So they wud look a bit different before the world interbred
Fauld camp bomb storage place ww2 blew up accident I believe it was biggest explosion in ww2 took out a complete village ,before two atomic bombs were dropped on Japan.

Hi CONN.Have U ever seen the blockbuster movie KRAKATOA East of JAVA.Based on real events in 1883, which was Acadamy awards nominated for special visual effects.The giant wave near the end of the film is beyond amazing after the Volcano erupts.If U like disaster movies this is for U.
The only problem is that geographically, Krakatoa is west of Java.
@@chrisaskin6144 Yes Chris your right, but my understanding is that the Producers wanted more of an Oriental feeling to the title so they blatantly changed the direction.All the best.
Watch Greenland tsunami
go to the wildlife park you will see plenty of our ancestors there big gallumping clumsy apes ........
Climate change now could do exactly the same again. As sea levels rise we know Bangladesh and its huge population could disappear, as ice melts and methane in the oceans turns to gas we could get the sort of huge earthquakes and hurricanes in completely unexpected places. It may even trigger the super volcano under Yellowstone that has the potential to wipe out half the USA.
From the Atlantic Ocean not the Irish sea
Cimate is changing for the worst since the industrial revolution. before that, the climate moved in cycles. the hot, to cold, to hot again, we might have broken the cycle.
im sure in mesloithic times , flat and round earth wasnt a thing , all you know is around you , no knowing about the other side of the world .

Today’s humans would not survive a global catastrophe. We really on modern technology to much.
We have no survival skills. The only people who will survive are people like you see on Tv shows like The Swamp People, and similar people like them who hunt for food and know how to survive in poorish conditions.

You need to learn how to edit your videos. I love your learning and live some of your insights. But I find myself editing you out with the FF button. Too much fidgeting with the screen settings. You say let's go..sometimes 5 or 6 times before you press play. Only to pause the video after only a couple of words. Edit out you feeling cold. Edit it out your need to drink. Etc Etc.
Thanks for the tip Russell!
They've bought up some really cool stuff from under the sea at Dogger Bank. Like fishing hooks carved from antlers, thousands and thousands of years old. From when it used to be land
-In answer to your question as to whats the worst deadliest disaster in history, I think it's one of the historical floods of china, perhaps even the 1931 China Floods, which killed over 4 million people
(EDIT: Holy sh*t, actually the 4 deadliest recorded disasters in human history have all come from floods and earthquakes in China 😳)
-The reason climate change is really bad is because at the moment it appears to be accelerated from human action. Which means the world we are currently adapted to, and that most living things are adapted to, is changing to something a lot less sustainable

I once read the whole surface of the earth was covered in deep ice for centuries. so its been warming since then and its still warming up, to this day.

It would have been disasters in stone age times that would have lead to the start of Religion... 👍
People wanting and inventing their own explanation for these disasters... 👍

Typical , british deadliest disaster , forgetting every other coastal region in the area. quite pathetic actualy . but he that is how brits work , change facts to make them more important.
The question you pose is deep. When did humans become truly human? The fact is we don’t know. We have the change in agriculture at around 4000BC when humans no longer needed to be nomadic, but we don’t really know the point when man stopped being like all other animals and became something more. Animals react and survive based on instinct, humans survive on being able to think and to plan. When this change occurred we really can’t say for sure. It could have been gradual or it could have been through a divine change when man stopped being animal and became truly human. The religious/atheist debate rages obviously but I was always moved by John Calvin’s proposal that the two great creative movements of God was the creation of life and followed by the creation of the human soul. Both creative changes work against the second law of Thermodynamics and yet here we are.
Just think of it as Brexit MK1
Hurrah! Good riddance, Europe!
You think that humans have nothing to do with climate change?
For goodness sake, haven't you heard of Cop26
