Wonder how far the Atlantic / Pacific oceans etc fell when the Med frilled?

probably when the med was dry, north africa wasn't desert. in geological time, a blink of an eye, but our perspective was always the sahara.

Water, the most influential molecule on earth. This the power it has when affected by gravity, the most influential force in the universe.

Are the guys payed for this? Can i aply?

Is this desiccation fissuring ?

Finnaly a video that doesn't just talk about god

Interesting

Maybe.....Maybe not.

whats funny is that the Mediterrean sea contains amost the same amount of water than you have ice on the planet and did the sea levels go down when the it refilled ? No . And yet they expect the sea levels to rise hundres of feet if all the ice melts .

That must have really freaked some ancient people out.

Holy shit! This must have been like a biblical flood for the people that may have witnessed this...

Drying took hundreds years I guess.

Made from nazis in 1920s

is nobody saying about that lake in hungary

Just wait till they make a canal or tunnel to the dead sea and generate power.

It's like trying to piss with a boner 😂

a version of this to time scale would be amazing, like 1000's of years

Same thing happened between France and England….

this is more of an erosion simulation than a dam breach

Self inflicted

Such a huge and rapid redistribution of water should have altered the Earth’s rotation in some way. Is there any evidence of that in the geo record?

This is brilliant they got paid to play in the sand. Way to go

The music is annoying and unnecessary

We’ll that was very anti climatic. I thought it was going to bust wide open much faster.

DAM!!!

I like when he keeps pointing out the steppes to Joe lol

I'm no gynecologist, but I don't think you should build a dam out of sand

Great animation, but you got the water color in the Black Sea incorrect. It was dry at the time as well and didn't flood until some time later. Great video thou

Reminds me of the lava flow in recent eruptions.

What are they collecting at the end? Are they measuring the levels of confetti in each cup ?

Wonder how many science teachers in high school refused to play this video because of the fart sounds 😂

Wow so water will erode sand - who would’ve thought this was true. Oh wait, every 8 year old boy ever.

These "scientists" really suck at breaching dams. Nearly 3 hours to fo a 5 minute job.

Dam + sand = Damn sad

who got sent here by how to?

This video should have been played for those that signed off on the building permits of those houses built on a sand bluff

What is the white wire that emerges from the left side of the carved-out area, around 51:47?

I used to do similar stuff as a kid. Go make a mud dam, turn on the hose, try to hold back the water. Fun times.

I've got a lot of stuff to do.... So yes I'll watch a 50 minute video of a miniature dam failing!

Unconfined non cohesive soil..what did this prove again?

The birds chirping in the background were very upset once the dam started to fail towards the end

Amazing. For every slave imported to the land of the United States, at least two and possible three free men died in the war that set them free. Talk about reparations!

22:53 Note: During an actua dam breach, it is considered inappropriate to celebrate by throwing confetti.

"Oh wow this should be cool.... oh crap.. 54 minutes?" (54 minutes later) "Yup, that was okay, I guess."

Erosion is cool.

Is that when the structures showing by google earth in the sea south of Crête were flodded ?

Ahem... *Burgundy*

aggregate is our friend

When I was 5 years old and supposed to be watering the garden, I got in a lot of trouble for conducting such obviously important experiments as these. 🙄
