Kinda cool to watch how the velocity and profile change with time. Erosion is stronger the faster the water is moving so it starts at the end and eats backward as the velocity keeps increasing. Wish the video was longer and/or timelapse to see how it continued to progress.
This happens all the time. The river ebbs until the breach, then when it flows, the ocean repairs the wall at high tide and the river starts to fill again. Cycle repeats.

I'm a biologist for State of California. Witnessing exactly the same on the So. CA. coastline for a bridge restoration project. However in this case it goes both ways. The creek breaches into the ocean and the ocean breaches into the lagoon. Critical habitat for fish as well as shorebirds. This is fun and exciting to see....on the other side of the world.
Haha, I have no idea why youtube recommended this, but it certainly brought back good memories. We were around as 7/8 year olds when the lagoon at Kelso broke through and may or may not have aided the process with a couple of plastic spades. The idea was to create a little trickle to fill our engineering works on the beach below. The torrent which soon followed was a real eye opener and fortunately obliterated the evidence!
This is fascinating to watch. Think about it in terms of when the Zanclean Flood happened. That (according to the theory) is when the straight of Gibraltar was breached and filled the basin that is now the mediterranean sea. The inflow of fresh-water from rivers does not offset the evaporation of the sea, so it eventually dried up (more or less). Then about 5.33M years ago, the Atlantic Ocean started to fill it up again. It probably started as a trickle like this and then eroded a path and got bigger and bigger as more water flowed in.
Thanks for the upload! It reminded me when I was a kid and tied to dig a channel between a lagoon and the sea in Durban. We never really succeeded because the sand kept on collapsing and blocking the little channel we dug by hand. The next day we wanted to continue and just found the lagoon completely empty and a huge 3m deep trench with ripping water where we dug the previous day. Parents were not impressed.
Hamzah Mohammed you can say that because you live in UK, you have experienced winters like every years. I don't know South Africa average temperature is, but for us that live in Equator, the lowest temperature we've experienced every years is around 23°c. So we will say 11°c or 12°c is absolutely freezing. If you go to tropical countries where the normal temperature here is around 32°c to 40°c, you may say it's too hot but it's actually nothing to us. We all have adapted to our surrounding temperature.
Wow must be 40 years since I last saw Black Rock and the River. Many happy hours spent there and on Scottys beach as a teenager. Thanks for the memories.
I don't care if this guy got the process started by scratching a line in the sand with that stick; it would've happened on its own soon after, regardless. But this way, we get to watch.
“totally natural breach of course” well of course, I mean why would you even mention it, “...and a natural breach...” why yes, yes you mentioned that earlier, that it was totally natural, yes...
You can also see another trickle started a little further up. So it was going to go one way or another. We have a river near us that does this a few times a year. It's no where near as big, but it's very cool when it goes. Only been there once when it let go and that was after heavy rain and it was known to go.
I saw a similar video like this about a river breach in Hawaii, I think on Oahu. But the way the tides work is that as soon as the accumulated water masses flowed off into the sea, the waves create new sand banks that block the now empty river basin from constantly flowing into the ocean. That way the basin fills up again naturally until another breach occurs. It's a natural process and the people that created the breach on Oahu did so with legal clearance from the local authorities. Not sure why everyone says that the guy in this video also created the breach himself but even if he did, the tides would create a new barrier between the river and the ocean anyways so calm down everyone. It's an impressive natural spectacle and to witness this is just incredible! Edit: Found the video I was mentioning: ruclips.net/video/KFzqike1Z0A/видео.html Read the description because many also hated on these people but it was all within laws of men and nature.

and in his final act he uploaded to RUclips before he was swept out to sea and out of cellar range. Thank you for your sacrifice good sir and God's speed!

Intresting You done good job friend 👌 Really superb Thanku sharing 👌 You have excellent creativity knowledge God bless you My heartfully wishes to you 🙏
Watching this video teaches you how frighteningly quickly a river can cut itself a new channel. Away from things like waterfalls, we tend to think of rivers as quiet, slow moving, peaceful places. This shows us they are anything and everything but that!
Very satisfying! reminds me of my favourite beach occupation - building dams in streams and then watching them fail. Also, it's like geology speeded up; the first meander starts forming at about 2:40 then a waterfall forms, which erodes upstream.....
The river swept him away after his camera was thrown to the side and the ocean finished the job by pulling him out in a rip tide. Poor guy. Guess you shouldn't mess with nature.

Actually, this is more how the Snake River canyon in Idaho was created. Grand Canyon was created over millions of years. Snake River Canyon in Idaho I believe was created when the the melted waters behind a glacier broke through and dug the canyon in a single event.
+Wailwulf The Grand Canyon was actually made in a single weekend by the McElvey Brothers in 1987. It is still not understood why these four brothers decided to dig out such a great amount of the earth, but afterwards the eldest, John McElvey stated "If you build it they will come".
No, because I visited the Grand Canyon and personally saw it in 1961. So the massive excavation has to have happened before that time - perhaps in 1960?

Actually, this is more how the Snake River canyon in Idaho was created.
Grand Canyon was created over millions of years.
Snake River Canyon in Idaho I believe was created when the the melted waters behind a glacier broke through and dug the canyon in a single event.
+Wailwulf The Grand Canyon was actually made in a single weekend by the McElvey Brothers in 1987. It is still not understood why these four brothers decided to dig out such a great amount of the earth, but afterwards the eldest, John McElvey stated "If you build it they will come".

LOL I was wondering about all the construction equipment when I saw it in 1982
No, because I visited the Grand Canyon and personally saw it in 1961. So the massive excavation has to have happened before that time - perhaps in 1960?
the grand canyon was likely the byproduct of electrical activity
I'm expecting an Indian who'll give us the narration after I read the title.
Just thought about this video the other day and now it’s recommended again, awesome
Just discovered you and so glad I did.
This video epically showcases the most powerful force on the 3rd rock.
Water erosion is no joke... but it is cool to see in action.
They form on their own, I always just get the call, “Hey we got a current on the beach comes down to surf”
Fascinating!!! Nature, and the power of water are something to behold. Thanks for sharing such an event.
Wow, amazing 👍👍👍
"It is freezing here."
Oh, OK, must be like that just above 0 C with windy weather.
"It is like 11 C"
....
This is amazing! Have you managed to see it in the years since? I'd be curious to see how large it got over time.
Nice vlog....🙏😇
Man! This is called Nature's Natural Breach... It is Awesome! 💖
And the water supply just went straight to that ocean...
Would be most interested to see what it looks like today
