27th August 1883: The eruption of Krakatoa
Вставка

- Krakatoa consists of a mostly-sunken caldera that lies within the Sunda Strait between the Indonesian islands of Java and Sumatra. Situated on the subduction zone of the Eurasian Plate and the Indo-Australian Plate, the island and its surrounding archipelago were formed by previous volcanic eruptions.
In May 1883 clouds of ash and steam were seen venting from the volcano by the captain of the Elizabeth, a German warship. The intensity of the volcano’s activity varied over the next three months until, on Sunday 26 August, the eruption became significantly more violent and debris was thrown an estimated 15 miles into the air. The earlier celebratory mood of people on the nearby islands soon turned to fear as hot ash and rock began to fall.
The eruption reached its climax the next day. Over the course of five and a half hours beginning at 5:30am, four enormous explosions occurred. The third of these was the most powerful, with the sound being heard up to 3,000 miles away in the Indian Ocean. The explosive power of the eruption is believed to have been the equivalent of 200 megatons of TNT, while the pressure wave is estimated to have travelled around the globe three and a half times. The force of the eruption and the amount of material displaced also caused a number of tsunamis, the effects of which could be felt as far away as South Africa. Over 36,000 people are known to have died.
Over two-thirds of the island of Krakatoa itself disappeared. In the aftermath, the effect of unusually high quantities of ash and sulphur dioxide that had been expelled into the atmosphere disrupted global weather patterns for more than five years.
Yes, I'm from Indonesia, this story is real and very attached to Sundanese people, very scary
mengerikan
my grand grand mother has told this stories to her daughter about krakatoa eruption.then my grandmother has told us about this stories.what i have heard, all asia area is covered by black dark cloud for a week.it look like night even in daylight.and this cloud is poisoning..
@Alex Luca Yeah did you grand grand grandpa see it though ?
On that time , someone's great great grandfather were 3 years old when the volcano eruption happened in 1883 .
... well i live in indo
OMG 🤭
I think you meant to say great grand mother
Or great great grandma.
I wish this was recorded
@@Cthight it's not fake, there's audio
Now it is recorded
There’s one audio recording and I think there are a few pictures. But that’s it.
It is*
It was recorded from Adelaide Australia there's a YT video about that it was 18 seconds long
Edward Munch's "The Scream" painting may have been an image of the sky after Krakatoa erupted on August 27, 1883. It could be heard 3000 miles away and it was said to have deafened anyone within 10 miles of it. The Scream guy looks like he heard the loudest sound ever to fall on human ears. 😱
I wish i could time travel and bring my android phone to record things so that we can actually see what happened.
Phone camera? You probably need way better ones...
You cant even get close to it to capture anything, you will die if you do.
@@maz4628 So you want to go deaf?
@@maz4628 it had ruptured the ears of people hundreds of miles away, and thousands of people had died.
@@josephkennard902 I don't know if I want to travel to the east coast, it's already hot enough where I live.
The Child of Krakatoa was erupting today
iya kak
Are you fucking serious? This is 8 months from now, but are you fucking serious?
@@TheRealSlimAnus yep
@@TheRealSlimAnus yep
It is recorded just search trampshirt harold krakatoa explosion (its only audio tho)
I was about to watch a 2 hour video about this. So Thanks for a short vid instead
A recording was made of this eruption...when you listen to it you feel the power in your gut...such violence...incredible!
Yeah right quit exaggerating
@@miguelaguirre1319 dude. The explosion was heard 5000 kilometers (!!!!!!) Away! The sound traveled around the world several times. The waves it created were over 40 meters high.
You know what else is mental, that sound recording was recorded in Adelaide Australia!
@@harrison553 Yes!!! And also; there was a painter in England in who's paintings of that time, the colors of the British sky show the haze of the ashes of that eruption🎨
@@miguelaguirre1319 go read some history
I remember one of my late mentors--Walter Coffer--telling me stories about his grandfather recalling how teams of oxen were pulling cargo from Galveston up the Ship Channel to Houston. Now I'm no expert on oxen nor ox carts, but that's pretty damn cold for the HSC to carry that amount of weight!
Tamboa 1815. Bigger an entire peninsula with a 14,000ft volcano...suddenly 10,000ft with a giant crater..it literally blew 14 square miles of rock upwards..a rushing wind..knocked down trees..before being covered in ash and molten rock.. Krakatoa 1883. Louder...mostly underwater with tsunamis. Both changed weather...both in the same general area. Java and Indonesia.
Tambora volcano exploded in 1815, no actual scientifically accredited records exist.
The Krakatau 1883 explosion is scientifically recorded: sound was heard at Perth, Western Australia, Rodrigues Island, Indian Ocean, over large areas of Asia.
Seismic records were basic but exist.
The best is the very provable fact the the pressure wave travelled from its source at Krakatau, to the antipode in Colombia, South America and back to Krakatau at least 7 times each way.
Pumice rafts carrying skeletal remains of animals and humans washed up on beaches in southern Africa, and shipping noted them in the South Atlantic.
The catastrophic failure of the volcanic edifice triggered a localised tsunami with 10 metre high waves, which washed away lighthouses, inundated coastal areas, and carried a ship - The Berouw, 3300 (3.3 kilometres) inland, killed an estimated 30000 plus people's.
It remains the loudest noise naturally generated in historical times. The noise caused permanent deafness and hearing loss at about 64 km away.

@@yoursleepparalysisdemon1828 don’t…… make fun……….. of him
……………
Not one mention of The Scream by Edvard Munch ! The sky is red in his painting because of the ash from the eruption. Well, actually, it's red because during his walk the sky turned red from the eruption, and then afterwards he painted his experience.
is this confirmed or just a theory?
@@bee4590 Of course it’s confirmed lol, its a eruption which killed 36000 people on the coasts of Sumatra and Java
I just read a comment about this and came to this video to learn about the eruption. I'm glad someone mentioned this! Thank you 😊
The painting by Munch is theorised to depict the after effects of the Krakatau explosion. It has never been confirmed!
@@xPhilosophyy The estimate is between 30000 and 120000 people died as a result - NOT, of the erosion, but the resultant tsunami!
Who's here because you were just watching Squidward say Krakatoa
Me Because of taal volcano eruption
I am here bc I am reading Pudd'nhead Wilson by Mark Twain and it is mentioned, so I goggled it. Fascinating.
@@elizabethross8082 I'm sure that happens often. 😂
I came here after reading keno don rosa's scrooge mcduck stories.
BAHAHAHAH SAME LMFAO
-Krakatoa
* destroys toilet with a massive fart
If it was this powerful. How did any life even survive in Indonesia?
Where there is a will there is a way.
when there is ground under there is under ground
People were lucky this happen in a small island that literally got destroyed
@@LizziesLukas the island itself was born because of the separation if Java and Sumatra, so it's not 'lucky' that it was there. The tectonic plates from eons ago ripped Java and Sumatra into two separate islands, right in the middle, Krakatoa was born.
Life finds a way, as any other disaster that has happened in this world, like when I pooped in my pants, I survived
This was the soundest sound on earth
The point here, Ladies & Gentlemen, is that we CAN'T CONTROL Mother Earth .......I was living near St. Helens when the famous volcano blew. I was pretty young, so I really didn't appreciate what happened, but the people in the "Blast Zone," who had all been warned several weeks prior to EVACUATE, did NOT LEAVE, and BECAME STATISTICS. I think the oddest thing about this was that my Mother, who had been raised on a farm in the Mid-West, used to talk about how the farm animals would go to the barn and seek shelter sometimes HOURS before a major storm; my pets = three dogs and two cats= began acting especially "odd" many hours before the volcano went off . ( i.e. not eating or drinking, crawling in bed with me, which was sort of interesting since I had a beautiful 100 lb. female German Shepard that absolutely refused to go outside to go "potty," unless I basically carried her.) It was absolutely weird. Right before the explosion, everything took on this eerie CALM----it's like : you didn't know what was happening, BUT all the same, YOU KNEW what was going to HAPPEN. At the major moment ------the atmosphere turned dark GREY, and THAT WAS IT !!! All the LIGHTS went OUT......I tried to think of things I should be doing, such as calling my parents who weren't with me, getting out candles, tuning in to the EMERGENCY RADIO CHANNEL. WE WERE REALLY FORTUNATE; other than having to live without power for a couple of days and having to clean up several inches of grey volcanic dust, that was the only "suffering" we had to do. God Rest; People were killed, but not anyone I knew. C.H.
This is very nice
13 times louder than atomic bomb!
3000 miles. that’s almost the distance from New York(USA) to Kerry (Ireland)
It was heard all the way in South Australia
America Russia :big atom bomb go boom Indonesia: how cute
😂
How about Yellowstone or La Garita ? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
haha wkwk
@@yashbhagwat2664 what about Toba 🗿
@@brandyginting875 Make this clear that Indonesia is one and only country , which is worst known for volcanic eruptions and nothing else , where horrific eruptions took place in world's history and lots of properties got damaged out there . 🤨
There's a sea turtle out there ready to tell the story, only he can't talk
Jonathan the tortoise 🐢
The shockwave alone shattered eardrums like 450 miles away or something
Fun fact, this is actually the loudest sound in ever made
Well it's the loudest natural sound on earth.
Anak Krakatau self destructed destroyed itself.
A similar event happened this year in Tonga when one of its submarine volcanoes erupted. Also produced a loud explosion and a tsunami
I’m pretty sure it’s not very similar to Krakatoas eruption
yeah yeah yeah, but have you ever turned a ps4 on at midnight?
😂
It erupted again back in 2018 and it collapsed and trigged a tsunami
3 years later Mt Tarawera Erupted June 1886
Here in my hometown of Rotorua
Very Good, really very well explained 👏
Thanks a lot 😊
hello from indonesia🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩
@Weebs iDN weeboo
Plot twist: Krakatoa have child but the childhood dont have mother

“HEY GUYS LOOK, HE DONT HAVE EARS!”
@@hijustacommenter10yearsand10 cringe
I love History
This is what happens when you evolve a rock type pokemon
It's also the most loudest thing on earth it can burst your ear drums
Actually if you were in within 10 miles of it it was 330db, loud enough to LITERALLY BLOW your head up.
@@Lallint damn
Dang. The Ring of Fire.
There is a recording made of the sound of Krakatoa on You Tube. 🌋😱
Great video. Love your voice.
It was informative and dangoures
My 65 year old uncle told me that mt krakatoa was erupting so bad and it blew the whole island.
Yeah it did state in the book that the eruption was so violent that krakatau collapse after the eruption
Oh yeah.😐
it is, its separate an island into two, sumatra and java
What are u uncle doing at indonesia?
No.
That date was my birthday
whos here bc of their teacher
Who else remembered when this happened?
I'm from Indonesia, its actually Krakatao
i like how it erupted on my bday
Damn Nature. You Scary
It appears that Hunga Tonga had a similar size eruption and I wonder what the effect it's going to have on our climate.
The first earrape
Lucky ENOUOH to see this volcano on 2 of my surf trips to java. crossed that straight in a boat times. I also witnessed other volcanoes spewing debris . Saw arenal in Costa Rica. House size boulders sliding down the hill. Truly awesome.
The sound reaching 5000 kilometers worldwide
Damn
The largest volcano in the solar system is on Mars
Olympus Mons
0:40 me:is that singapore is it?
yep
The loudest volcano it can break my bones
It seems this volcano erupted some 75 thousand years ago and made a green house effect that finished a lot of lives.
I hope I live until time travel exists then I can hear the sound
I wish i could see from far away
What was done to help the people affected?
I was there.
It actually erupted on the 26 of August 1883
dangerous
Yes it actually erupted on August 26 1883 I no for fact that was also the day my grandmother was born I kinda kid around I say that the day she was born the earth shook and it did 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
All these channels have the same guy with the same accent
The Angelus (from the Darkness series):...Oops
Very nice
Informative
Man took rip headphone users to another level
0:24 I've been to Anyer btw i'm indonesia
Who is here because of today's KBC question🙋
I m from kbc question
Yeah, quiz some Devils who are the only one's on Earth who really know about Krakatoa Island the same as Mt Vesuvius in 1642AD they all knew but ignored everything about as smart as anyone who believes a Possum in a tree is a rabbit, yeah the eruptions heard for miles.
Tambora was actually much stronger than Krakatoa in 1813.
Me to
That month is my birthday
Happy
The blast sound actually reached our country. Thats how loud the blast was
Even greater than the sound reaching our country... I remember one of my late mentors--Walter Coffer--telling me stories about his grandfather recalling how teams of oxen were pulling cargo from Galveston up the Ship Channel to Houston. Now I'm no expert on oxen nor ox carts, but that's pretty damn cold for the HSC to carry that amount of weight!
Which country is that?
Are we supposed to know what country that is
@@psixlops It NEVER reached the US. The pressure wave did, bit the sound didn't.
The floor is lava

SQUIDWARD: KRAKATAOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

BUMMMMM!
@FOSSIL7 lah kok ngatuuurrrr

Hippity Hoppity, You are now Deafity.
Who exactly and how recorded this sound?
ghostbuster after life bring me here :)
anyone come here after watching time tunnel ?
This is my country
I really wish they had phones by then
That would have been the ruination of a perfectly good beach trip.
I came from BSPS oc anyone else?
recommendation 2049?
You sound like Dave Gorman
my 2 year old brother is louder...
Hyper eruption possible
Me after eating tacos:
8/27 My mother's birthday.
The audio of this is real?
Yes, it is true
The cameraman be like 😵😵😵
There is an even bigger volcano than the toba volcano krakatoa
3 times more powerful than the tsar bomba
The britanic accent...
imagine if this happened after the black death
human 1 : hey guys we survived the black death
human 2 : yeah i guess were lucky
human 3 : yeah i cant wait to go home and see my mo- hey whats that
"krakatoa erupts"
human 3 : NOOOOOO!!
And we think we can rule the earth....
We are. Humans are a cancer that will not die
Edward thompson
It was 1883 I doubt if they had the capability to film the eruption like a movie for your entertainment
I met this Man,and he said he Travelled in time.He saw the Eruption.He described what happened.I did not believe him at first.I now understand
what he said.
its like addukhan
believe in god, Islam is the true religion
