To the scriptwriter FYI it's "time immemorial", not "time immortal". I don't want to be "that person" but it's better to know, eh? Mike, the axis changes all the time. Even a single, large, earthquake can move it, but it's only a tiny bit. Even building large dams can make a difference, but it's not something that we'll notice ourselves, it takes _very_ sensitive instruments to do it. It's nothing to worry about. And yes, there will be another "Pangaea" in approx 250 million years! As an aside, there are some parts of the Atacama which are so dry that not even bacteria can exist. It's more sterile than a "just cleaned" operating theatre!
Hi Mike, one night I was camping in far west Texas and was lucky enough to actually see ball lightning. I swear I was cold sober and hadn't been taking any hallucinagens. Still, it was a trip!
I think you would enjoy the UK tv show called QI. Stephen Fry hosted the first years and Sandi Toksvig hosts now. They talk about a lot of the things you talk about!
Unbelievably, I lived in Billings, Montana for 10 years and I never visited Yellowstone!! I had plans many times but never made it. Then, I moved to PA in 2020. I could really kick myself for not taking my son, who was 11 years old, when we moved.
You should go back. I plan to go there this summer. You can drive or fly into Montana and rent a car. You and your son will love it. You live in a pretty state now.
#2. Rocking out: Very recently, right here on RU-vid the was a story, (I think by the Physics Girl), that spelled out just how the rocks move. I don't remember how the water gets there , it freezes then as it melts on the rocks this caused very low friction between the ice on the lake bed and the bottom of the rock. This allows the wind to, without to much difficulty to push the rocks across the frozen lake bed. As with most of your lists, I knew some of these, but most I was unaware off. On another subject: I didn't have the time to write this went I watched 25 diseases/viruses. How about a virus that actually cured an a medical condition. If your interested in this story, please provide me with away to DM you. I've waited for over a year to tell this story. I'm sure many of your followers will be very surprised to hear this story and even some that will not believe it. I don't currently have the medical proof of this, but I know it would not be difficult to acquire it. I am interested in finding a university or research company to investigate this with the idea of helping others.
Yes, absolutely!!! I definitely plan to go back, at some point. Thankfully my adult children still live there and that's the perfect excuse to go! Then we can all visit Yellowstone, together!! 😁
DBZ's "Ki Balls" Were named "Sokidan," Mike, and the Kamehameha does start as a Sokidan sometimes, so, I'll accept that Ball Lightning is really signs that Goku and Vegeta are sparring irresponsible close by.
I like that globe with The statue Cristo Redentor (Christ the Redeemer) But that's not actually the tallest statue in the world. The tallest is Statue of Unity in China.
Hi Mike, there's the theory about where the vast amount of water may have come from but what about the massive amount of salt in the saltwater we call ocean?
Maybe it's time to rename the channel List 15. And maybe hire a fact checker to boot. There are sure a lot of tangents that don't relate to earth. BTW, the bulge at the equator is due to the centripital force of the planet's spin (1,000 mph at the equator), combine that with the additional land tides exerted by our very large moon (relative size to orbiting body). The oceans actually have hills due to tidal forces. How about this earth fact you omitted. What we call the earth's crust averages 40 miles deep. That may sound fairly thick until you realize that it's 4000 miles to the center of the planet, drop the zeros, divide by 4 and that shows that all life on earth lives in the scant 1% of the total radius. It's amazing we just don't bloop into the molten mantel. So much heat, so much energy right under our feet and we do so little to exploit it. And yes, Yellowstone is the caldera of a supervolcano capable of destroying human civilization and the dome is growing and it's past due for an eruption and there's no place on earth to escape the effects of an exploding supervolcano, so it still should be a concern.
I'm no geologist, but living in the Palouse area of Washington state has really sparked my interest in geology. Thinking about the Lake Missoula super flood absolutely blows my mind. The sheer scale of it is unbelievable.
I'm sorry to tell you, but geologists don't actually know much about the planet called Earth. The majority of what is taught at university is just speculation and doesn't even meet the criteria to be a theory. Even tectonic plates have not been scientifically proven, but they do make sense. The majority of what humans think are scientific facts are just speculation based on our very limited technology. There is no scientific proof that the universe was created or that the universe is expanding, there is no scientific proof of the structure of the earth and we actually know more about the surface of the moon and Mars than what we know about the surface of the earth. Remember to always do your research with an open mind to all possibilities because everything that you think you know could be wrong. Only by keeping an open mind will the answers reveal themselves.
That’s correct Mike! The earth isn’t a perfect sphere but a geoid shape and that explains the bulge at the equator! Love your videos and please keep making them as they are not only very entertaining but also educational!🙏🏻👍🏻🤗! Px
@@list25 You are more than welcome honey! I just say it as I see it as we say here in Ireland 🇮🇪! Yep you have crossed the Atlantic Ocean and hit me between the eyes 👀 with your entertaining, amusing and factual videos! May the road rise before you, another Irish expression meaning the best of luck to you!🙏🏻👍🏻🤩🥰🤗! Px
Actually all oxygen comes from a small family in the Czech Republic. They have been producing all earths oxygen for several billion years. It’s a closesly guarded family recipe.
Surely that ball lightning coming in through the window was just some exaggerated 400 something years ago letter of someone stating how bright the flash was on the walls on the other side opposite of the window or something
Sumerians are credited with naming the Sun Moon and the visible five planets Why with all the histories, would you not look outside of Europe for the answer to who named the Earth
If clouds cool down the planet could there be a way to make more clouds and save the earth from global warming? I'm off to make a coffee and hope that helps a little bit.
Two astronauts have died in space, and never were they returned to earth. I don't understand why we don't just take the ocean and return it to its place in the firmament as a sphere around the planet.

What I find interesting about Earth and its water is that, among the water bearing bodies of the solar system, Earth is surprisingly dry. Of the 9 water bearing objects, 7 are moons and 2 are planets (yes, I still consider Pluto to be a planet). In absolute terms, Earth is the 5th wettest object. The In 4th place is the moon Europa with twice as much water. In first place is Ganymede with over 30 times as much water as Earth. In relative terms, things are bleaker. Earth is the driest in relative terms with 0.12% of its volume being water. Six of the nine objects have over 15% of their volume being water, with Ganymede once again being in first place at 46% of its volume being water. I've always been fascinated that, for all its apparent wetness, Earth is actually so dry
Re: 22: This has been happening for a long time. It's been said that the many sinkholes that are forming in the earth are the result of groundwater depletion.
thank you ever so much, you are so entertaining and pleasant and fun, it's such a lovely experience watching and listening to your posts. I have never realised you feel like a really nice friend just calling in and passing on fascinating facts....Thank you 🤗🐕🦺🐕🦺♥️
