How 7,000 Years of Epic Floods Changed the World (w/ SciShow!)

Every time I drive from Spokane to Central Washington I wondered how there was ever enough water to carve out the river-shaped grooves in so many of the hills. So cool! Also Dry Falls is absolutely stunning to see in person 🤩

Randall Carlson would present a ton of evidence against this, and quite frankly he sounds more right than this video

A flood science HAS proven to be true hehehe

Makes me sad Randall Carlson wasn't mentioned one time.

Watching those floods would probably be very scary and I am surprised that it is not in the ingenious people's lore.

Randall Carlson's version (on geocosmic rex & rogan) includes J Harlan Bretz's explanation about catastrophic flooding as the cause of the scablands, but the source of the flooding is meltwater from the Laurentian ice sheet after being struck by a fragment or fragments of a comet. The ice sheet was 2- 3 miles thick at the time. The heat released would have been enormous enough to account for the amount of water necessary to erode the scablands in one event, and also account for the rise in sea levels overnight that occurred at the younger dryas. Also check out Antonio Zamora's videos about evidence of geological deformations from iceberg-sized fragments striking the southern US after they exploded out of the sheet. Fascinating to think about what was there before and what was wiped out in North america overnight.

Nice video but you really need to review the work of Randall Carlson!

We R Knot Clovis first anymore or uniformas!!?...Excellent Video though.

Forever changing the landscape?

Ok-- who is Steve?

This is the plot of ice age the meltdown

What about Randall Carlson’s impact theory?

EONS, check out the work of Randall Carlson. He has been studying this for years. He doesnt think the floods came from the lakes but from a comet hitting the ice sheets covering canada about 11200 yrs ago. Catastrphism

Lake bonnevile?

FINALLY! been waiting for one about the channeled scablands!

There once was a man from Missoula...

Dude stands like an outfielder.

Stop constantly leaning backward and then forward!!

I can dig it!

Catastrophic floods caused by man made global warmi... oh. Never mind.

I bet Joseph threw a kickass pardee after he cracked the mystery

Back when global warming started LOL

The ice dam broke by floating upward????? How about the water pressure at the base of the ice dam caused ice melting until there was an opening that quickly widened and resulted in a collapse of the dam?

Not enough evidence

I LIVE IN MISSOULA

Weird hearing about all these places I live near/drive by all the time

ice age mega flood was caused by a volcanic eruption during an ice age is my guess

Hahaha a cooling event is not a cause for “woolly” mammoth extinction, the sun is.

Is this uniformtairianism a version of today’s “98% scientists consensus who agree in man made climate change?”

Must have been Paleolithic cow farts that caused the ice to melt so rapidly 🤣😭😂 🐑💨

Odd that they ignore the coulees that don't fit this narrative.....

goody

Interesting, and though those of us with an attention span are very few, please slow down for goodness sake. So your video is a couple minutes longer.

Name: Randall CarlsonYouTube Channel: GeoCosmic REXLet the Master guide you through this subject.

I’ve never heard or seen any of these places ... could someone make a list of the sites shown - id love to visit

Gee...it is talking a long time for the adherents to Darwinian ideology to be set free from the uniformitarian cage.

Interesting , Lake Agassiz drains around the same time as the Dryas event.

Easy to see layers deposited on top of each other. A flood?

Surely you are not saying this happened before the industrial revolution, so this huge climate change had nothing to do with people ??

Steve is my hero
