    Nature is AWESOME!

    I thought I'd share this video with you of the awesome power of nature, that power that just doesn't care.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoA_Z7y8f6Q

    Got any similar videos of natures raw power or perhaps beauty?

    Having been to the North Pole, I can say feeling the rumble in your feet and the noise surrounding you is one of the most surreal experiences I can recall. Another good one is being on the edge of an active and volatile volcano, they're both quite frightening but the ice caps have a more serene quality about them whereas volcanic activity feels harsher.

    Is it? I had my laptop on mute so I didn't notice; oh well. I've been out in Siberia in every season, including the winter, and it is definitely..... interesting. Even went backpacking in one of the (relatively) warmer areas while the snow was down.

    You would get same results in around -20 to -30 °C.
    As a matter of fact, boiling water thrown like this freezes FASTER then cold water. (http://www.edu-observatory.org/physi...hot_water.html)
    This is such a obvious show of non-proffesional news that it hurts to watch. Something like our local news station proving -20 °C we had last year was really cold by putting pot of water outside, and showing it is frozen 2 hours later (like really? water freezes in -20 °C? You got to be kidding me...).

    OP's video is really damn awesome. Shame most people will not be able to put it in perspective size-wise :-(

    I'm aware; and I'm also aware that boiling water freezes faster than cold water, while the reverse for boiling water is not true and is in fact a common household myth. I think the point that was most interesting was that it was frozen as soon as the boiling water was fully exposed to the air, not that it froze at all.

    Damn, I thought we killed Deathwing. o_O

    Shoemaker-Levy 9 caused an explosion on Jupiter the size of Earth.

    Destructive power win.
