Underground America: Caves, Craters, Lairs, and Bunkers

Simon: Has a glorious beard Me: 27 trying togrow a beard and it has more patches then Cyberpunk.

Agreed. I'm not watching xplrd until I see 3 more plugs for it. Then I'll binge the lot.

I know man, he keeps making me want to buy shit

Simon is one of my unique business format heroes. Congrats Simon

I can't quit laughing you are correct and in a hilarious way

This is confusingly accurate.

I will never be able to visit a cave again without thinking about this comment.

@Cynthia n/a I hear ya but the first auto used on roads that were shared by wagons in America was a steam powered one invented in 1871. Either way, that’s close enough, and my comment was a bit on the ignorant side. Thanks Cynthia

Yeah, was gonna mention that too lol

Same thing to me. It's all America. ;)

You have a pretty gross personality then

@@ridgecrestwack9746 And you're an overly sensitive Yank. Did sone say something not nice about your overrated country?

@@ridgecrestwack9746 USA is just 3 smaller 3rd world countries in a trench coat

Yeah the first real car wouldnt be made untill 1885 by Karl Benz in Europe.

That's how 'progressive' Kalifornia was! 🤣🤣🤣 And the Arizona meteor hit Savannah Georgia! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

This was the steam punk era... perhaps he was referring to steam engines rather than internal combustion. He would have said "cars" otherwise (no British person uses the term "automobile" for cars).

It's because our education system is garbage so the smarter folk have to talk slow so republicans can understand us.

I don't say this to in any way discourage you to find these, I'm a geologist after all, go find them craters! But that video would be a LONG one. Even if you would set a parameter where you exclude the more minor ones, Simon would lose his voice before he got even half way. I went and checked out the wiki article, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_impact_craters_on_Earth , and that gives you a bit of an overview of why it would be more of a full on series than an episode! ^^ Although "most interesting craters" could be fun, and maybe a bit easier to present! ^^

Ill support any video about holes 🕳

Thus one bald sim!!!

@@pmsavenger how about only disputed/expected craters does that narrow it down or are there any IDK I'm just spit ballin here idk

@@bugglemagnum6213 For the record, I went out of bed on a saturday because I can't type this in an adequate way on my phone! So I mean, there's obviously craters that haven't been discovered, or looked at, yet, but once we see one it's a fairly straight forward process. You can see using a GIS system fx, to see how the topography is different, compared to the surrounding, although it isn't always because of a crater. But then you can determine the age of the rock inside, around and at the edges, it changes due to how a crater burrows down in the middle, and then pushes up older rock around the edges, changing it's angle, as undisturbed strata is going to always be horizontal unless something happened. So you will find different rock types around the edges, and rock that have undergone some level of metapmorphisis due to the heat. And then there's the ones that's so huge they created like a dome of molten rock. Think of a little what happens to water when you drop rocks in to it and how it behaves. Like the one in Australia and there's a huge one in southern Africa, too. And then there's analysing the layer of debris which ended up in the atmosphere and then fell down elsewhere, to determine age, and you can also then look at fx weather data and correlate. Just in short(ok not super short but you DID ask, so I take it as consent :P). But there's methods in deciding if it's a crater of an impact event or not, so for it to not be possible to really tell, they'd have to be pretty small and there wouldn't be much proof left. And I imagine they aren't that interesting :D They could also be very very old, and most of it would have erroded away, or in such an area where erosion would have acted must faster, or because the area have changed due to other geological events, but I don't know, it's science, so I mean, when we don't know it is mostly(but not always) a case of not having done the research yet, and then it's usually not much to say about it other than "Uh, maybe?". If they are cool enough, the science will most likely have been done by now. Because scientists are nerds. :P Oldest ones are cool, because it is one of them things that can be used to date when the solidification of the crust happened, or at least "it had to be before this". Hugest are cool, too, and how they melt the rock so it splashes up and then falls down on top of the asteroid, and craters in the solar system. Craters on the moon, and the lack there of at the far side. That's cool, too! And for some reason I wanted to call asteroids meteors(lack of coffee?) right now, so if a sentence look way off, my brain is still asleep. Anyway, I think there's a lot of ways to frame impact craters as a topic, but going for undiscovered ones at this point would be incredible niche, and I would recommend finding a geology lecture about impact craters rather :D I remember us having one where we got to learn how to find craters that weren't obviously visible using GIS. I literally just sat with GIS and looked at the topography change with the depth change tool. I think that is a little bit too dry for your avarage youtube watcher :D So there you go, nerdy pre coffee wall of text on impact craters, that you probably didn't need, and definitely didn't ask for! You're welcome ^_~ And now previously mentioned coffee is going to be acquired! ^^

That would be an interesting video

If you want to see what it looks like when stone flinches, go there.

Check out his other channels. They're just as addicting.

I don’t know if you’re aware, but some former employees of the FBI center in Clarksburg suspect that it’s the replacement for The Greenbrier, since that one is no longer a secret. They say there’s a lot of tunnels and secret elevators and places employees are not allowed to enter.

Indeed!!

Popular history suggests that people were not present in the Americas when the impact occurred circa 50kya. It actually coincides with the decline of neanderthals and the migration of us (sapiens) out of Africa. I am uncertain if it could have triggered climate a crisis which led to those events. Toba (75kya) and Campi Fleigri (39kya) could have been far more instrumental. Of course we are well overdue another natural catastrophe and no better equipped to cope, except for the bunkers...

@@angrytedtalks well Mr Obvious, you must have no sense of humor but thank for the unnecessary history lesson.

@@randyhoneycutt8153 You're welcome.

been there. got laid there 😆

And somewhat west of Florida.

Too bad FO76 is a sack of distended buttholes.

@@CorporalDan2312 HA!! Yeah, it has more than a few issues.

Oh, they're all just hoaxes made by the Lizard Overlords. 😅

@@CieJe.Alexander For Overlords, they have a very bad sense of direction. 😉

Yep, Fact Boi Simon and his writer(s) get it wrong. Again.

That stuck out like a soar stick shifter.

He's an AI, not a real person.

@@Shadow__133 that's no excuse lol

@@agent74113 I know, I mean he can do anything! Including 5 simultaneous videos a day.

Mammoth-Flint Ridge is the longest cave system in the world, so it definitely is longer than "Luray" Caverns.

Glad I’m not the only one who caught that.

Yes, but it's west of Florida, which is where the video shows the impact occurring.

@@jamesclendon4811 LOL. True!

Also, very cool product line.
