This is my third one since 2017 with complete or near totality. I get it. People are like, well it's cool but I've got places to be. I didn't go out of my way to see them. I just happened to be nearby for three of them.
It's just a big ass shadow. Outside of scientific study, eclipses really aren't that interesting. I've seen a total of four ranging between 80% to 99% totality and every time I was left wondering "What, that's it? My blackout curtains at home have the same effect..." Same goes for lunar eclipses. I've seen about half a dozen when I was growing up, and they're nothing that special either.
And it's really not that big of a deal. It just gets weirdly dark for a few minutes - I've seen several eclipses in my life, and each one has left me asking, "What, that's it?"
That is really cool that you were able to be there in the main path and get this view; not a view we normally are able to see. And glad to see another video!
This was a really creepy experience. I have heard about this before, but never seen it before myself. Day to night to Day all within 4 minutes. Thanks for continuing to watch my videos!!
@@chronodiesel6560 I have yet to witness actual totality myself. I've seen a picture of an eclipse that was taken from the ISS; it's literally a giant black spot on the surface of the earth. Just doesn't look normal. And you're welcome; they really are high quality videos.
i took a flight to Dallas from Cali to see this eclipse from a burger king parking lot. Guess what, there were people inside Burger King who did not even step out to take a look at the Sun/Moon for 3 mins.

Nothing stops the city! Not even an astronomical event that will never happen again in thousands of years in the same place. But oh boy, what if instead of that.... it begins raining money?
There are many potential reasons why these people decided not to stop during the eclipse, they may have important work or events to get too, they may not have a clear area to drive to and watch, they may not be able to stop in the middle of the highway. Most of these people would probably love to see it, but they have to may attention to the road and get to the places they need to go.
As the comments on just this video prove… we as a people have different likes.. interests and concerns and that’s what makes us unique. To some it’s a once in a lifetime event.. because it is (if you’ve been lucky enough to have seen multiple then good for u) while to many others it’s nothing too concerning. I fall in the camp of appreciate the joys and curiosities of life. But at the very least, respect others opinions regardless of how they feel of these types of events. I myself would love to see it one day. But I’ll have to travel for it as it won’t occur in my country for another 200 years
Most are under the common misconception that a 99% eclipse is 99% similar to total eclipse. If they realized it is 0% similar, many would be far more interested.
I actually have a co-worker who missed it despite being outside with clear skies in Dallas. She never took her eclipse glasses off. She stood there for about 4 minutes trying to see something and didn't ask anyone what she was supposed to be seeing until 2 min after totality.
After watching this over a dozen times and looking at individual cars, it seems more legit than what I first thought. Many cars remain in the same spot and you can see the lights reflecting off of them. These cars typically wouldn’t be there overnight. Also, there are people standing in the parking lot on the very right edge of the screen towards the bottom.
A total solar eclipse is the most exciting event in nature that can't kill you. It stirs the soul of anyone in its path that has a soul. As a scientist and a person of faith, I pray for the souls for all those people incapable of appreciating what God hath wrought. The universe is magnificent, and we have been given minds capable of discerning and calculating its complexity - and souls capable of appreciating it.
This was NOT ALL of Dallas. I was there. It was a mostly cloud day and many of us missed it. BEWARE what you SEE on social media...even RUclips! It can be quite TWISTED!
nice to see two in your life time by just taking a car ride. or staying at home ( talking about you Carbondale). I found the 17 one being my first as a bit more awe inspiring but that ejection on the bottom part of the sun this year especially thru binoculars was pretty spectacular.
They would have fixed the camera's aperture so it didn't automatically adjust for the change in light to make a more dramatic video. Our eyes just do it automatically.
The video makes it look darker than it really got. It was still light enough to read a newspaper easily just by the ambient light. Very erie. For the people who did not stop on the highway, life does go on and some people where working and needed to be somewhere else. I don't fault anyone for that. Lucky for me I'm retired and spent the day photographing the eclipse.
@@Josh-yr7gd just so we are clear, i was joking about the cloud thing. you already know this but i feel the need to say this JUST IN CASE for anyone else on the fence
@@Josh-yr7gd Not fake. I was there in Uptown Dallas and this was the exact experience. It was that dark. The 4 minutes of totality makes a huge difference. The view in Arlington, Frisco and Mckinney was less than 3 minutes totality and wasn't near as dark. I was in Idaho on the centerline for totality in 2017 and it was just like sunset there with just over 2 minutes of totality.
I was just east McKinney, before Greenville and it was pretty darn impressive. Was cool how the temperature dropped some and I even had goosebumps. I thought there wasn't going to be a ring around the sun based off of media, etc however, there was a ring. Wasn't completely dark. Still badass.
I can't believe we drove to McKinney thinking it would be less cloudy and it turned out Irving was totally clear and McKinney was cloudy. We only saw the sun for a couple seconds during totality
I've been to the centerline of two eclipses. At both I saw people just driving by like they didn't notice anything. Odd, I have never seen it get that dark - street and porch lights came on, but it wasn't dark like the middle of the night.
It's actually CCTV footage layered (one from day and one from the night where it cuts to darkness) and NOT an ACTUAL ECLIPSE! Otherwise, the path of totality would be seen approaching from the distance.
@@_DriveTime It would NOT get anywhere NEAR as dark as this video says it did. It just looks like a 360 sunset not pitch black nighttime. This is a fake video.
We drove 450 miles each way that weekend to see it in Cleveland. I wasn't too far from I-90 and was stunned by the number of people who couldn't care less. The sound from the interstate never changed the entire afternoon.
I’ve seen a few partial eclipses but this is my first 100% total eclipse. My biggest take on it was, how dark it got. I NEVER thought it’d get like midnight. That was a complete surprise to me.
Living in Tennessee, it was so cloudy the only thing we experienced was just darkness and 80 % totality. All my friends drove to Ohio and left me hanging.
When I drove up there, there were many signs that said “No stopping on the highway to view eclipse”. Exact for exact words. Even if you wanted to, you couldn’t and it would be a safety hazard if you did.
Yeah but if they didn't know a month ahead of time they were really buried deep in a cave then. It would only take 4 minutes at most to be viewed and over.
I drove all the way to Mexico when I was 17 to watch an eclipse. It is not a "life changing" event. See, change only happens over time and with consistent pressure. I guess it's value is in learning not to follow the crowd or simply repeat what you've heard. It's four minutes of diminished light. Neat. Hey, I once saw a double rainbow. . .
*"They ignored it!!!!"* Yeah probably bc it wasn't in full totality!? We were 40 mins from Dallas in the line of complete totality. There's a huge difference so that's most likely why!
Imagine being so busy in life that you could pull over to watch a once in a lifetime occurrence. I mean whether you believe in a higher power or not you pissing your life away if you have zero time for the little things
In the entire history of the world a total eclipse has never been a sign of things to come. On September 6, 1755, in Portugal people saw a total eclipse, it really freaked them out, then on November 1, 1755 the great Portugal quake struck about a hundred miles off the coast of Lisbon and 60,000 people died from the tsunami that the quake caused.
This was great, but a slight tweak to raise the bar... During the darkness go back to 1:1 speed for 10 seconds so the viewer can drink it in, then speed back up. Bump it up two notches, use the original ambient sound (minus annoying background chatter) if you have it.
This was the first time in my life I have photographed an eclipse landscape timelapse We’re the settings ideal? Absolutely not. Am I ever going to get a 2nd chance, nope. If I were photographing sunsets, I can get another chance the next day, and the next, and the next to perfect my skills. This was a once in a lifetime event.
@@chronodiesel6560 OK, I wasnt judging you, just suggesting something if you wished to put a version 2.0 out that people may really like too. Im just a regular viewer hoping it slowed down.
@@C.ChurchI took this as a time lapse with each shot being 2 seconds apart. This is not a video sped up. Its already running at 24fps and slowing it down to even 12fps would make it look terrible
I agree. I was near center of path of totality and sky was like maybe 30min after sunset...very dark blue but also orange glow like sunset/ sunrise in every direction. It certainly wasn't pitch black le the middle of the night.
@@afh7689 That was my experience in 2017. I did not go this year but I saw the partial and the sky did get eerily darker than usual cause of the shadow that is still being projected on Earth.
This solar eclipse was particular "large" as the moon was almost the same size as the sun in the sky so it made it much darker and for a longer period of time. This was THE solar eclipse to see if you had the chance. Unfortunately, I live on the other side of the world now. Got to see one in Indonesia in 2016 but it only turned to twilight like you said.
@@platinumpineapple9943 I doubt it I was not in Dallas. In the area but probably 30 miles away. All I did was 1 ball shell. My neighbor did a 200g cake. I only did a single thing because totality was not gonna last more than 3 mins where I was at. I had planned to do a super small shoot with the Texas pyros but they all bailed out last minute (lame) lol.
Like they could even see it with the damn clouds. I literally got to see the eclipse for 30 seconds before the clouds covered it for the rest of the 4 minutes. Unluckiest cloud ever
Actually as someone for dallas you should’ve seen the millions of people crowding. And give me a clear reason why people would risk a major car wreck just to see an eclipse they can see in 2044?
I'm in an acid facebook group online, and pretty much every single time without fail that there's a rocket launch in Florida, California, or Texas there's a string of posts "OMG What did I just witness?!?! Is this HAARP? Is this aliens?!?! Why isn't the government telling us about this?!?!" I'm imagining half the people driving in this video saying "What in the hell just happened?!?! Is a storm coming?"
How can people be so unbothered about such a unique opportunity? 🙄 I literally flew across the Atlantic to see it.

It goes dark. It was my second total eclipse so I was ready with fireworks as soon as it went dark lol
LOL I heard fireworks from the cotton bowl I was there in dallas too. I think they were coming from the west of the cotton bowl was that you
@@platinumpineapple9943 I doubt it I was not in Dallas. In the area but probably 30 miles away. All I did was 1 ball shell. My neighbor did a 200g cake. I only did a single thing because totality was not gonna last more than 3 mins where I was at. I had planned to do a super small shoot with the Texas pyros but they all bailed out last minute (lame) lol.
Like they could even see it with the damn clouds. I literally got to see the eclipse for 30 seconds before the clouds covered it for the rest of the 4 minutes. Unluckiest cloud ever
Get the Warren Commission!
Actually as someone for dallas you should’ve seen the millions of people crowding. And give me a clear reason why people would risk a major car wreck just to see an eclipse they can see in 2044?
In their flying cars
Maybe they were trying to drive with the eclipse.
Great shot, it looks so pitch black. I also make science videos. Want to see them?
Could really scare people if it happens and was never announced
There's my car @:26
🤣
Bet the people who live under rocks thought the world was ending.
A lot of people who knew what was happening did too
I'm in an acid facebook group online, and pretty much every single time without fail that there's a rocket launch in Florida, California, or Texas there's a string of posts "OMG What did I just witness?!?! Is this HAARP? Is this aliens?!?! Why isn't the government telling us about this?!?!"
I'm imagining half the people driving in this video saying "What in the hell just happened?!?! Is a storm coming?"
Lol I know some people in Dallas who slept right through it believe it or not 😮
I mean sure people from trees, parks and houses did watch it than streets.
most of those people probably don't have solar eclipse glasses and you don't have to stop driving to enjoy a sudden darkness
You don't see glasses to watch totality.
Darkness has nothing to do with the appeal.
Incrível
They probably didn't realized what happened. They so busy with everyday life
