    Stunning video. I cannot get to the Augrabies Falls, so I have really appreciated the effort you went to to give folk like me a sense of the awesome power of the water. Mesmerizing!

    Morning Jors, thank you so much for this incredible video of Augrabies. Not likely I will ever visit this area but you have brought them to life for me. Good luck with the pumps and have a fantastic harvest. All your videos are really appreciated. Regards Val

    having experienced this at a fraction of the flow rate, I can't imagine the sheer magnitude, the scale & power of the experience - it's a truly awe-inspiring event, something to be experienced at least once in a lifetime. well done Jors!

    Jors, we saw you driving in at the Augrabies gate, just as we were driving out (having stayed 2 nights) ... we took a quick trip from Cape Town to see the falls, and admittedly, inspired to do this by your daily videos !! Nice road trip back via Keimoes, Kenhardt, Brandvlei, Calvinia and back to the N7 at Vanrhynsdorp.

    Good job, Jors!! Here in Canada we have some large rivers too but I don't think we have any points as accessible as near to the power of the water. Its an awe-inspiring event to see. Good job with the editing, narrating and filming too.
    Good work from your parks department for building the walkways for viewing,...and thank you to the park for letting people get close.
    We have too many lawyers here I think,....some lunatic would would climb over the fence for a "selfie", slide into the abyss and the lawsuits would be almost as thick and fast as the river!

    @MrJaybee53 2 года назад +1

    Lovely Jors.
    Seen it before but like you I can watch water for hours - but fire too... 😉
    What might be interesting is to prepare a short video of Augrabies with a split screen where imagery of the low flow can be compared with imagery of the high flood flows, identifying sections that are usually dry but are now covered with flood waters...? (maybe even an inset?)
    Based on your figures it'd also be interesting to calculate how many "Gariep Dams worth" of water has flowed through Augrabies since about 15 November or earlier? (As you know PE is suffering under terrible drought conditions - 7/8 years now - and while 65% of our water comes from Gariep via Oviston and to see sooo much water heading to the Atlantic Ocean is kinda heartbreaking)

    • @JorsMalan
      @JorsMalan  2 года назад

      Yes the limit of the tunnel to supply the EC from Gariep is 40m3 /s if I remember correct.
      I have done some of the calculations like that in past videos, will do again

    Jors, you knocked this footage out of the park! Especially with people in the foreground. Well done. Spectacular. Although, having been there, the sound add massively to the spectacle - and there's no ways you can get all of that as well. As you say; One really does have to visit the place.
    I've always wondered how many diamonds there might be at the base of those falls
