Ah yes, and the horrifying creatures that come to the surface that steal our socks out of the dryer and eat random people in the night live in those dark tunnels in the earth
As other comments have said, this is an excellent video. Thank you for posting it. I'm in my 70's, so I knew all this already, but this is a really great explanation for kids or folks who've never really thought about caves. The pictures and editing are stunning. Yeah, I agree with RuleWriter: "How are you not more well known?" Fantastic!
Those are really good and interesting channels, as is this one. If you're interested in genealogy, linguistics, and similar topics then I highly recommend the UA-cam channel Masaman. Very informative and interesting, his presentation style reminds me a bit of the other channels you mentioned.
@@AtlasPro1 me good way of putting such a number into context is by considering the fact a cubic kilometer is 1 billion cubic meters. Now, just using common sense and only passing knowledge of the Grand canyon, it's obvious the open space in the Grand canyon is bigger than 1 cubic kilometer. When considering this, any source saying the Grand canyon is 38 million square kilometers should create immediate suspicion.

fajar adi Pradana Lol I personally haven’t been on a trip longer than 8 hours, but if you’re desperate, some people pack and extra nalgene to “go” in. I’ve heard that other exploration trips will require you to bring some sort of bag/can to carry your waste in as to not damage the caves. But there are some caves where you are allowed to just pee in a corner because there is no risk of damage
@Atlas Pro the main problem i do see with such channels (not saying it's something generic) is that the information delivers too fast and monotonic for an amount of knowlege concentraition .. So it's starts to overload ur 'cpu' and decrease an attention. Very interesting subjects but really hard to follow. The background soundtrack reminds me of Sid Meier's Civilization. Good stuff. Keep up the work!
i started hiking as a hobby recently (around the philippines) and OMYGOD i love this video thank you this is makin me even more excited for my hike next week
Fun Fact: Not all solution Caves get fromed by flowing Water. As cave explorer i often asked myself how that much water must have been flowing through the most impossible spots. Turns out its often not flowing water, but the acidic moisture of the air who eats itself often through the limestone :)
I'm always finding myself checking the playback speed with how fast you speak. It's a good thing since most of the UA-camrs speak slowly that I feel like it's a bed time story.
I never enjoyed Geography at school, but having discovered your channel only a couple of weeks ago, I can say I've been really enjoying your content. If only Geography was this interesting at school, maybe I would be on a different path myself
Interesting. Oh, I an love the sound effects! Sea creatures die? Give them a funeral bell. We just created carbonic acid? Great! Give us a little trumpet hurrah!
Caves are pretty cool and terrifying at the same time. i really haven't seen many as my area has no caves that i know of, the flat plains of an ancient glacial lake bed probably doesn't favor their formation.
Man, your vid just popped up as one of the recommended vids on UA-cam and I'm sure got caught in this encyclo-geo-atlas thing of yours. Thanks for the info.
very well done. very informative. but what i like most about this and the one i watched previously is that you speak at a normal rate (not hyper like on some of the science channels) and clearly with good explanations and reflective. i learned a lot about caves (and yes i would love to learn about the less common forms) and oasis (that was super great). thank you.
That brings me back to my sedimentary petrology classes. Out of all classes I had, it is easily top two in terms of difficulty, right next to structural geology. Also, Mt. Roraima, in Brazil's frontier with Venezuela, is an extremme occurence of a karst in quartzite, one of the most insoluble rocks there is. It is located right at the north of the amazon rainforest, one of the wettest regions in the world as well. All nearby rocks weathered and eroded away giving place to the amazon basin, but quartzite is so resistent to weathering that it stood there as a 3000 meters high plateau. On top of the plateau, since it still gets a lot of rainfall, the extended exposure to weathering agents has formed karst as well, but its quartz karst, not calcium carbonate, which is fascinating.
If you keep making videos, this channel is gonna BLOW UP lol these are some of the best made videos on UA-cam. This is my first time seeing your content btw
Just found your channel. I'm really loving your style, and also the content. Keep up the good videos, and I'm not sure why you haven't grown into the millions yet. You don't find many channels like yours very often these days. I can't wait to see more of your work! :)
Fantastic video but I feel like I could've watched 30 more minutes of slot of the things you briefly mentioned but didn't elaborate on. Cave pearls, karst topography etc really grabbed my attention and left me wanting to know more, but the information wasnt expanded on. If you ever have it in you to make another more comprehensive cave video, I for one know I'd love to watch it. And I'm not even really that into caves, this video just sparked my curiosity
Just so you know, the strength of an acid refers how readily it dissociates into ions. It is less of a factor in how well it dissolves things than concentration is. Hydroflouric acid for example, which is one of the most caustic acids readily found (what they used to dissolve that guy in Breaking Bad), is actually a weak acid, because the flourine atom is highly electronegative and doesn't readily let go of hydrogen. That being said, the resulting hydronium and flourine ions it dissociates into both play a part in attacking structures they contact.
