Amazing Geology! 

Zamora basins!

It happens more than one would expect, I used to smack concert nails repeatedly at a slightly different angle to adjust half inch cardboard form-boards and once in awhile a tiny shrapnel piece of the nail head will fly diametrically back at my line of sight once the hammer vacates the impact. It was a common thing to bounce off my glasses or cut my face. I know for a fact that a .44 Mag. and a shook up hot beer bottle will send the glass spherically, including back at you.

@@bardmadsen6956, very interesting. Appreciate your story.

Yes to think impacts were only in the areas where still visible is a little naive. I would not have liked to have been anywhere in North America at the time. It's little wonder there are myths telling of people who retreated underground in prehistory.

The videos add details that are too cumbersome or too subtle to put in a book. They also enable me to answer questions posed by the readers.

Off the charts. Well, it’s been hypothesized that the magnitude would be above 11.

There are asteroid / meteor impacts (rock and iron for the majority) or comet impacts (frozen liquids, less dense) Meteors can enter going from 40 to 60 kilometers A SECOND or 144,000 to 216,000 kilometers an hour. This causes rapid heat buildup and often weakens the meteor during atmosphere transit so it breaks up. Because metals survive high temperatures and BTU (heat energy) better than Comets, their internal mass rarely converts to a gas with the consequent phase change from solid to gas (requiring even more heat input), but they do melt and lose materials burned/melted off their outer surface as it is heated by their immense speed through Earth's atmosphere. Comets are generally slower, when their elongated orbit around the sun intersects with Earth's orbit. Their entry speeds are around 20K per Second or 72,000 kilometers per hour, half the speed or less of meteors. Even though this speed would produce less heat per kilogram of Comet material, the different composition of Comets makes them less resistant to the internal expansion forces due to heat. Also the conversion of Comet material to gas (a far bigger expansion factor compared to heat 'swelling') makes them easier to explode when heated by the atmosphere. With a low angle entry, the comet would travel a longer path through the atmosphere providing more heating time, leading to the creation of more heat energy by air friction. The Tunguska event in Siberia is assumed to have been an airburst (probably a comet) as evidence of an Earth Impact was never found, only the result of a massive explosion (knocked over trees in a radial pattern for many Kilometers away from the blast). In the case of the Carolina Bays, a low angle comet entry (even a big one up to a kilometer in diameter), exploding (air burst) above the Earth's surface would be 'cushioned' -- its explosive energy or blast front dispersed enough to leave no crater below the explosion center. However the explosion energy could be thousands and thousands of simultaneous H-bombs of megaton size, a cataclysmic blast that would break up a glacier and propel a large amount of its ice mass (several square kilometers of ice, broken into a range of sizes) at high speeds laterally from beneath the air burst explosion, which is the core of the Carolina Bay formation hypothesis.

It is really hard to date the Carolina Bays because the impacts that made them scrambled the terrain. Check out this video!: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-aHTbVqCPBrA.html

I love it when someone asks a question that I figured out two years ago and it makes me look so smart. The coordinates that you provided are for Big Bay in South Carolina and I have a video that includes dates obtained in a paper published in 2010: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cciLnQfGmXw.html EDIT: I once asked George Howard to investigate that sand sheet to see if it contains pebbles larger than could be carried by the wind.

@@Antonio_Zamora well, great minds think alike! what can i say. i was looking at a high aerial view and didn't even realize that was "big bay". i also didn't realize the wash could travel that far... i'll look for some wind-blown dunes on bays that are more isolated from major bodies of water.

@@AustinKoleCarlisle You may want to bring up this issue with Cris Cottrell. Some time ago he collected some samples from several "dunes" to try to determine whether they were splash chevrons or windblown deposits.

Check his previous videos.

The width-to-length ratio of a bay corresponds to the sine of the impact angle. I have used these angles to calculate the relative time of emplacement of non-overlapping bays. See this video about Big Bay: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cciLnQfGmXw.html

No. The process you're describing would not produce literally tens of thousands of basins of all sizes with measurable eliptical shape from the Gulf Coast to New York, all oriented towards Michigan. Those in each region have the same orientation as one another, with a progressively more westerly orientation in the basins from the south Atlantic seaboard to New York.

A gyroscopic hypothesis similar to what you suggest was published in 1954, but it was refuted two years later: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-3vcjusFH5t4.html

Not all of them are perfectly elliptical like this. Even the non-elliptical ones orient to the same impact point.

Take a look at the video about Ohio: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-50aNT_ogtE4.html

@@Antonio_Zamora Fantastic!

I have visited Jones Bay park in NC and another bay observation area near Myrtle Beach, SC. They both promote the eolian/lacustrine origin of the Carolina Bays in their brochures. Scientists would need to budget some money for excavation and dating. After the funds are allocated, the researchers who collect and test the samples will interpret them and they may say that the dates correspond to Marine Stage V which is consistent with the time of formation of other dunes by wind and water mechanisms thereby confirming the current bias. Take a look at this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cciLnQfGmXw.html

@@Antonio_Zamora I would think there could be a significant amount of buried organic material that could be dated at a layer that could be identified by professionals. I’ve been following your videos for several years now and find this very interesting.

The impacts that created the Carolina Bays scrambled the stratigraphy. Radiocarbon dates have produced inconsistent results. See this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-d6gisXApcw8.htmlsi=78UBfCh28MHv6RTU

The mounds?

After a little more thought... you also cannot assume that the smaller the bay, the higher the ice boulder travelled. Again, I'm not able to substantiate my thinking on this, but you could have had house-sized boulders go as high into the atmosphere as a dog-sized boulder depending on the dynamics of the impact on the ice sheet and how far each boulder was from the point of impact. Would the direction of travel be an indication of flight time due to the Coriolis effect? Could you apply a variable to size of the bay (indicating the size of the boulder) along with the azimuth to better show the original point of origin?

@@thomasnewcomb2079 I am hoping that with the advances in Artificial Intelligence some of your suggestions could be accomplished. It takes me about 30 minutes to plot the points and run the program for one bay.

@@Antonio_Zamora That's basically what I was thinking. I think you'd also have to run different scenarios under different assumptions. Assuming an ET body of various types initially impacted an ice sheet of varying thickness. Initial impact with an iron body at 2 miles above the ground at the surface of the ice versus an icy cometary object at 1 mile elevation, etc. I know my state (Indiana) has full LiDAR coverage. If the known areas where bays exist have been LiDAR'd, I'm sure there are people out there right now that could hack that together 'relatively' easily.... just gotta find them. I can also see how a computer could categorize each bay based on azimuth to determine which ones hit first... to account for the coriolis effect. That would give you hints at other data that might give you the ability to recreate their arc of travel from the initial impact point.

My thoughts: -That would be a difficult measurement. When an object strikes a rotating Earth, it could acquire a velocity vector correlated to Earth's rotation, also the atmosphere is rotating with the Earth. Maybe if the altitude had an effect on atmospheric friction?

@@flamencoprof Well, any rotational velocity vector, which would be negative since the earth is rotating away from the apparent start point, should be the same for all impactors. The tricky part is that you could have 2 impactors of the same size and mass that could produce different size holes. The faster of the 2 would have more energy and likely create a larger hole.

The motivation for this video was just to point out the physical characteristics of the Carolina Bays without delving into the convoluted and controversial details of their mechanism of formation. I just focused on the geometry of the bays and experiments that have been used to attempt to replicate that geometry. This is a video that I can present to a skeptic geologist and say: "OK. How would you explain this?"

@@Antonio_Zamora wicked sir! Copy copy. Thank you for the response!

Aztlan history of Central America is very similar to Plato's Atlantis reference. Please check earthwork structures at Aztalan Wisconsin.

I hypothesize that while many long rivers (Nile, Amazon, Indus, Boyne, ?) were lined with chemical processing facilities prior the the YDB Impact, the Mississippi/Missouri earthworks were agricultural mega infrastructure feeding the Atlantean labor force.

It would have hit everywhere. Not just a part of Africa. And what about the Azores and Caribbean, they would get hit too. Was the flooding west to east or the opposite?

Is that why they have mathematically elliptical geometry?

The projectile is a piece of ice from my refrigerator.

Nope. Zachariah Stitchin was a crank.

@@76rjackson Yes, this ancient history ithat s available in many different forms for everyone who is searching for it but that knowledge is forgotten, neglected or denied by all scientists. I found the common thread that connects many puzzle pieces of our past. Thanks to many years of research I was able to reconstruct a timeline. We have many pictures that are refering to the cycle of disasters and the cycle of civilizations.
