- In the northern Arizona desert, an imposing-looking crater shows the impact of an ancient meteor crash. Until the 1960s, it was mistakenly believed to be a volcanic crater.

Crazy how they always land in holes.
It's like space giants are out there playing space golf.
White Obama I know, right?!?!
I know right?! so strange..
Ikr I’ve always wondered why
Omg he crate the hole stopid yu wwy stpdi
i remember visiting this as a kid and thought it was the greatest thing ever
Lucky man! I hope to one day visit the glorious state of Arizona!
Same
Ditto
same!
Trisky so glorious
Man, it just barely missed the visitor's center there.
Very original
😆😆😆
facebook independant fact-checker would blurr your reply lol
David Gee lucky then
Yup.the visitor center was here since the ancient times.
I've been there and it is my favourite attraction in Arizona. I have absolutely adored it since I visited 10 years ago.
What are those structures inside the crater? The fence with the flag on it. What is it for?
Would they let you sleep at the bottom of it, staring up at the stars? That would be cool.
No you didnt.
@Pancho Villa Where did you get your "information" from?
Grand Canyon is even more beautiful
When you fly from Southern California over Arizona, you fly right over this. It's a sight to behold from the air
I've been there in person
Wow they made Dusty Divot into a real thing
I was gonna write that. Gg dude lol
No this happened before dusty divot was even a thing
Look! it's a hair on your screen! R/woooosh
Wow lemme pick up a hop rock
hahahahahahhaahhahah
I remember visiting this meteor it was the coolest thing ever!
How to find this on Google Earth
I was there when it happened. It was pretty cool
Frank Nunez
I was there too, but not when it happened.
Frank Nunez no you weren't but u saw the vid
Frank Nunez hi
Frank Nunez your idiotic beyond belief
Birb L wooooosh
I was flying from New Mexico and I saw this thing from the air. I’ve seen this in pictures but seeing it in person, I was like HOLLY SHIT THAT CRATER IS ACTUALLY HUGE!!
Respect to the people who witnessed this live
The neandertals
There were no people to witness it .Humans had yet to arrive in North Anerica.
WOW! Great footage! I look forward to seeing more of your videos! You just earned a new subscriber! :)
And then Bugs Bunny popped out and said, “wait a minute. Diss ain’t Pismo Beach!”
question, why the hole remains while meteor vanished, where is that thing gone?
Jugnoo Jogi It was obliterated and scattered at the moment of impact
It is everywhere.

_"why the hole remains while meteor vanished, where is that thing gone?"_
*This is not an impact crater so there never was a meteor.* If it were, the walls and floor would all be lined with glass from melted minerals... but they're not. Barringer spent years and his entire fortune trying to find the meteorite but never did. It was never there. *This crater was created by lava rising and meeting with an aquifer. Lava meets underground water = HUGE STEAM EXPANSION TO THE SURFACE.* Barringer reasoned that the meteor should be buried somewhere inside the crater. Upon digging, the only thing he found was lots and lots of WATER. Go figure...
There are _MANY_ other examples of this within 200 miles of this crater and they are all accepted as hydro-volcanic craters. This particular crater is special in that this is the one from which they established geological deep time to support all the bs theories of Earth by Accretion and Darwinian Evolution.
It’s in Adler Planetarium in Chicago right now (or at least a big particle of it), it’s heavy as fuck and it smells weird
post a link then, so we can see all the mapping you have found.
I remember this crater as a kid and thinking who took the meteor and why ? 😂🤣😂 when you throw a rock into mud you see the small crater and you still find the rock you threw.
Not necessarily, sure that may be possible, it is also entirely possible that the meteor is buried just below the surface, and the ground isn't all the same hardness, I'm confident that something coming from space and hinting at the ground will embed itself below the surface after 1000m/s is significantly faster than your 2m/s stone thrown from your hand
@@ChrolloJuicifer There are fragments of it left.
I've been here, they have a astronaut cut out in the middle of it haha
Gotta film those moon landings somewhere ;P j/k
@@ElectricUniverseEyes That's only on moon
You Know Me What is? Moon footage only on the moon? Do some digging on Stanley Kubrick and Max Canard.
You Know Me P.S. this crater was formed by electric discharge from an overcharged dielectric breakdown of our atmosphere in antiquity during a solar/cosmic event, not a giant asteroid 50,000 years ago (IMO).
@@ElectricUniverseEyes That doesnt cause craters.
The highlight of my northern Arizona trip! Monument Valley on the AZ/UT border is also very awesome!
And your way of explaining was Spectacular too👍👍👍
Alright, who let CaseOh out?
That looks incredible. I'd like to visit it one day. But where does the meteor go? Its not visible in the crater. Does it explode completely?
Good question, i am also having same doubt
I think the Grand Canyon was caused by an asteroid hit
Kaboom 🎉
I can't believe how close that meteor came to hitting the Visitor Center!
Well it sucks to be in the middle of this while it hit earth
Still amazes me no matter how many times I see it
Amazing! Thank you for posting and sharing. I've added this video to the Content Bash blog about Arizona.
I see a lot of comments asking where did the asteroid go, and I want to answer this because there seems to be some kind of confusion here. Assume that you drop a bomb on the ground, it explodes and it creates a crater. Do you expect to find the bomb inside the crater after the explosion? I believe that your answer to this question is no. That is because the bomb gets completely destroyed from the explosion. Thus, why would you expect to find the asteroid inside the crater after the impact? When an asteroid strikes the surface of the Earth, it acts as a big bomb. It crates the crater, the blast, fragments, heat, etc. Of course, the asteroid itself gets destroyed in the progress and nothing remains of him. The asteroid remaining inside the crater after impact is a movie and video games thing only. This is not how real life works.
They are called Meteorites. When a meteor is big enough to survive the atmosphere and hit the ground, it becomes a meteorite. Approx 17 hit the Earth every day. The rock that made this crater most definetly survived the ground.. It's gone from 50,000 years of erosion, not because it blew up and vaporized on impact
Wow classic.
Not gonna rewrite my initial comment, but I just posted it so... go look and riddle me that ✌️

That's uhhh... that's not really how megatons work friend
loooooool this is such a big mistake and its brain damaging to hear xD so obviouss too how they did that xD
"Named simply: Meteor Crater"
The preferred name is *Barringer Crater*.
And the dumbest reason it was renamed Meteor Crater goes: "United States Board on Geographic Names commonly recognizes names of natural features derived from the nearest post office, the feature acquired the name of "Meteor Crater" from the nearby post office named Meteor."
Named after the family that charges the rip-off price of nearly $20 per person to even get a quick glance at the crater. Unfortunately this entire place is a huge tourist trap rip-off now.
StriderGTS That’s a great point you’ve made.
Canyon Diablo
Where’s the hop rocks
Mikael Aaron pfffffffff they were removed last season lol
Magnus Baker no they weren’t
And the factory
Rip dusty depot
Idk
Really nice drone shots!
Does anyone else remember a large painting in the visitor center (may have been a mural) that depicted some Native Americans in the foreground looking up in terror at the giant flaming meteor in the sky bearing down on them? I liked it so much, here it is over 50 years later, and I still think about it. So put the date I saw it at about 1965.
rapskallion it's dusty divoit lol
Yeah, and the caption was 'OK, we'll build our casino someplace else.'
You can literally see where the world starts forming at 0:58
You can see the edge
That is only a little one! There are over 160 (confirmed) impact craters on earth, all bigger. Some much bigger and the largest is 300 km diameter (in Africa). The Arizona 1.3 km diameter crater (in this video) is said be like 20 million tons of TNT, so imagine the power of the largest strikes. The world is NOT 6,000 years old.
How is ten megatons the equivalent of 20+ million tons of TNT? 00:30
arent they comparing it to the explosive power of 20+ million tons of TNT? not the 20+ million tons of weight
@@GrandMoffOfMars - Yeah, that makes a lot of sense.
Them : meteor crater😮
Me : declassified US atomic bomb test🤔
It’s incredible how close it was to hitting the visitor center
I never knew visitor centers come from space and crash into Earth leaving these magnificent craters.
Informative video 👍🏻
It's actually a trap created by a giant antlion (now deceased). Scientists ain't so smart.
Beautiful !!!
Wow.... That would be so awesome to visit.
Unfortunately it's now a privately owned tourist trap now where they charge nearly $20 per person to even get a quick glance into it. They will threaten you with trespassing and involving the police if you even think about trying to get a look into the crater without paying their admission fees. Things like this should be ran by the national park service, not some greedy family that looks to make a quick buck off of everything. You and your 3 friends could pay $80 to go look into the rim of this crater for an hour, or alternatively you could by an annual pass to the national parks that gives you year-long access to all of our nation's wonderful national parks. Put another way, it's cheaper to see the grand canyon than it is to see this crater.
If its on their private property then they are allowed to do what they want with it. If it was on public land then Id agree.
How did you come up with an impact 50,000 years ago?
Was there a date written on the iron meteor fragments?
A more accurate date would be 3000 to 5000 years ago when this meteor struck Arizona.
The flood of Noah would have erased any impact crators that hit the earth before 6000 BC.
Nature provided Americans with the best arena on the planet.
Let the games begin..The world will watch!
War and UFC octagon getting old. We own the technology.
Is that caseoh the meteor shower 🤣😂
Such a holy place
Caseoh Fell💀
The amount of sarcasm in the comment section is amazing.
Sooo did it come straight down or at an angle?
IF THEY PUT GARDEN IN IT, IT WILL CALL ,METEOR GARDEN
Incrível, muinto interessante! 🇧🇷🇧🇷
Geez is there any shield mushrooms? I’m out of minis
Here's ur minis got 89 billion
I've accidentaly made that when i accidentally punch my cousin.
Memories been here many time
I think we can change the trajectory of astrroids if one threathens to hit earth. Or atleast break it apart but this might cause a metror shower
Sorry to hear about your mom's skydiving incident 😢
I regret it
1000 likes, it deserves😅
Um... when this asteroid hit and created this hole, where did the asteroid go. I mean, it’s too big to be moved so where did it go?
Burnt out? Or simply fused with earths mantel
Vaporized
so *THATS* where caseoh’s atom landed.
I think this is where the moon came from
LMAO
Corvus Glaive what
@Fred Cink It's a joke you ignorant potato
That would be like lifting a Sherman tank off the ground with a roll of caps for a child's cap gun. Do they still make cap guns?
Geviper No, it was from the thea impact.
Good afternoon,..

I saw this meteor crater on a plane from Atlanta to LA.
So 50,000 years ago you saw the meteor crashed into Arizona? XD
@@galileogalilei6936 Read it again.
They made Dusty Diviot into a real thing
divot*
More like real thing into dusty divot
More like dusty diviot was made because of this
Ahh so thats we're they filmed the thor scene's with the hammer stuck
That was like a few days ago in geological times.
bro when the meteor hit i feel like our mom and dad were caveman when the meteor hit
I've been here this place is cool
I’ve been there is pretty cool. Really windy
It's a sink hole. Meteors don't fall straight down, they go at an angle
Aleister Merrick Exactly...have you seen Bruce Sees all on youtube channel Moon videos are full of theses craters that's NASA wants us to believe are asteroids...more like moonies digging for minerals.
Not all come at an angle. Thats just stupid to say that.
@@roboto9413 - No, ROBOTO, it would be stupid to say otherwise. Straight down is also an angle.
Because you’ve seen a meteor make an impact like that HA HA HA HA
Really ? How many have been witnessed by you and only at an angle ? Exactly none so you can pick what you want to believe but everything is just a theory unless it was witnessed by people to prove it actually happened the way they say ... especially from 50k yrs ago I've heard like 4 different theories now on this place now and don't 100% believe any because they all have a hidden agendas
My friend asked me why do they always land in craters
Jesus. This is nothing compared to Mars' craters
Also look like a small moon or planet could fit in dat hole...nicely. I saw a huge white ball sitting down in a gully when i was a child. It was in rural Mississippi. I remember it not as a dream but as real. People came from everywhere to see it. When i saw the exact picture on the internet dat i remembered as a child. I remember asking my grandma after getting off the school bus if I could go across the street to look at the small planet but now they say this picture that I saw that reminds me of that day was actually planet Nibiru or Planet X.
The white ball you saw might have been a giant puffball, an edible fungi. They appear as pure white, and can grow to the size of a soccer ball. They grow in conditions you described. In the upper Midwest they usually can be found in early summer.
That's where goku killed Majin buu
so what happened to the giant space rock that made that crater?
It looks more like a nuclear testing ground from the 1960. 😊
CAN I GET SOME COVERAGE FOR THIS
So i was outside stargazing (Sunday, march 3 2019, about 8:00 pm) and be mindful i live in tolleson AZ. I saw a orange white flare as an unidentified object sailed rapidly into the atmosphere, almost straight north. According to my calculations, this is most likely not a spacecraft as it entered the atmosphere fast. It must have not that much of an orbital difference from earth. Anybody from nearby know what it was? Must be well known as it had a similar orbit to earth.
Ranibow Sprimkle Sounds like ball lightning (plasmoid) discharging through atmosphere
No, not ball lightning (like Electric Universe says) it was a meteor and it probably kept going or burnt up beyond the horizon. Like the one in Russia but not near as close or as big.
I saw a blue one once and I could hear it. I was just coming out of a caravan and the ground lit up (like someone was welding ten foot above my head). I looked up and saw exactly what you most probably saw. A meteor that entered our atmosphere and just kept going and missed the ground and went back into space. It skimmed the air. They are called something.
@@Justwantahover the thing is I just barely remember the image but what I can say is that after doing the math it became clear to me it was orbiting not only in the same direction as earth but it was more elliptical than earth's orbit. This much I knew because of the height of the atmosphere, the point where it became visible, the angular speed and direction, which I used to determine that it orbits just a bit faster than earth.
That would make a nice swimming pool
One Mile long Impact Crator. In Arizona. USA.
am I the only one that thought that the explosion sound effect was made by the narrator? XD
So just how deep is it ??? 👀
Good place to play in cricket
CaseOh
I seen this in real life go to it it's so big and it's worth it
I am sorry too hear about your mom's sky diving accident
A geological scar? Well, it was certainly HUGE!
Impresionante !!!
I would cover it with a petri dish. Use vacuum build up to 14.7 psia? Practice for building an ozone on the moon.
I'd rather have an atmosphere on mars tbh. plus if we moved enough mass from earth to the moon in a colonization attempt, it would only increase the rising sea levels. I mean I'm sure it would take an absolutely massive colony to do so, but still an issue.
use to be millions of craters. all filled in for farming before anyone knew what they were.
Eric's Variety Channel This sounds like an interesting story!
When it crashes in the ground, it's called a meteorite isn't it?
yes
Yep
the chances of a asteroid hitting perfect without skidding along the ground is slim to none this is not caused by a meteor or asteroid it can be as simple as a huge sink hole that makes more sense.
Cool
WOW That BIG!
Oh yeah thx I do have a big ...
This is just the replica the real one is in chicxulub,Mexico
It isnt a replica. This one is MUCH SMALLER than the one in mexico.
Do hikers climb down there?
Do all craters hit perpendicular to their target?
How do you arrive at the conclusion "50,000 years ago"?
1,200 sq miles flattened, and tens of thousands of acres beyond that, burned up in wildfires.
Man that's Dusty Depot after season 3
I went there life was good then
Its crazy to think this is on private property. It should be a National Park. The museum isn't great, and it's expensive. Too bad.
😅😮😮😅😅well information good show you 😅😅
but where is the asteroid?
¿Do you think that the meteor exploded in the air and never did touch the ground like what happened in Russian Tunguska and ind February 2013?
where is the meteor that created this crater? Crater remains, but the meteor disappeared?
