the visitors center wasnt there when it happened cause 50k years ago it was uninhabited which means there was nothing nearby like no streets no visitor center nor people
I first saw it from the back seat of an F-4 in the fall of 1970. It was a ten-hour flight from Hawaii to Florida, and over Arizona I looked over the side of the airplane and there it was: very impressive even at 35,000 feet. I became fascinated with it and later in 1972 stopped by on the way to Las Vegas and saw it up close. In those days they would still let individuals hike down into it, so I did. Somewhere I still have pictures of myself standing next to Barringer's boiler, and a little "Bottom of the Hole Award" commemorative patch they gave me. Shortly after that it was closed to the general public; so I was one of the last ordinary tourists to go to the bottom. I stopped by several times since then, but haven't been back in several years. Also there's a smaller crater or group of craters near Odessa, Texas, not as well preserved but thought to be caused by fragments broken off from the same meteorite. I was going to make the joke about how lucky it was that it didn't hit the visitor center, but I see below that someone already did.
Man what's wrong with you? Do you think that if there will be any meteorites then they will fall at 90°? Check what photo you will have if you search for geyser.
I visited the creator in the late Spring of '69. I was driving from NY to CA. I remember seeing many road signs from Albuquerque to Flagstaff. It seemed like there was a sign every ten miles or so. After seeing all of those signs I decided to stop to take a look. When I got there the only thing there was a big trailer as the visitor's center. Just below the visitor's center there was a shack which was made out of stone where a hermit used to live. He packed in and out with a mule. The path down to the botto
@@MikeHawkburns21 I wouldn’t count on him coming back, Mike. How many people actually visit the creator and come back to tell about it? He never should have tried to tell the world where the creator is hiding. He tried, but got plucked right up before he could even finish his post. We’re lucky that he was smart enough to hit the “post” arrow before the creator caught him, though. Now we have clues…

At the start it is stated the crater was formed ‘half a billion years ago’ then later a scientist says ‘since its only 50 thousand years old....’ It can’t be both. ?
I believe the video meant that half a billion years ago the meteor was created by a collision that put the meteor on a long journey to earth. It took the meteor half a billion years to eventually hit earth 50 thousand years ago.
They don't know it's all a theory... it's a pretty cool theory What if it was a massive nuclear weapon? Make the tzar bomba look like a bitch 🤷 Or some aliens came and destroyed the earth with their advanced weapons?? Maybe? Who really knows? 🤷
1961, my parents took us there. I went out the west end of the visitors center on a path about 1-2 hundred yards. Thought, I will probably get in trouble and will never come here again. So, off I went, jumping rocks, climbing down boulders the size of cars and trucks until I got to flatter ground and ran to the center to see what the white stuff was. People in the center started talking about there was someone down there thru those large 25 cent binoculars. My father dropped in a quarter and recognized me. I made it back up and my family and the people from the center was waiting on me. I had a bucket list when I was very young & still pursue what life has to offer.

Nope. Obviously alot of it did but the Iron,Nickle core is very tough and actually survived. They spent alot of time looking for it and found several peices of it
@@psychicspy1234 2 big peices are at the visitor center. The main core and the "basket peice" and at other museums and research centers around the world. Some have been lost to time aswell.

@@psychicspy1234 its actually very hard and expensive to dig up the remaining meteorites. The vastness of the crater itself is the attraction. Like I said the only reason they were able to get financing to dig it up and do research is because they thought it may have been made of gold or other valuables. This was the early 1900s after all.
It was suspected to be a meteor crater long ago. Our understanding of the geology wasn't as well defined so it wasn't widely excepted. A mining venture was begun to extract the iron from the meteor. They didn't understand the physics of an extremely fast moving object vaporizing itself. All the every found was a layer of iron dust spread over a large area. They never imagined how small the meteor was. Needless to say the venture went broke.
Daniel Sprouls - It was initially understood to be what it actually is - a hydro-volcanic eruption crater. The physics of hyper-velocity impacts prove this beyond doubt. Consider what would be left behind by heat that could vaporize 99% of a 300k tonne iron meteorite. Some of the sediments and rock from inside the crater would be vaporized along with some of the meteorite, but the walls and floor of that crater would be lined with melted sediments, rock and meteorite; aka - IMPACT GLASS. *How much glass was found at Meteor Crater? NONE.*
In India we too have one creator , in small village called Lonar , District Buldhana ,in state of Maharashtra . I think so many scientists have visited that place here in India , around the world .
I'm a truck driver. And I visited Meteor Creator several times over the years. It's worth it to see it at least once in your life! And it really gives you an appreciation for what these space rocks can do! Just think, it was a 150 foot rock that did that! Now fast forward to what might hit the Earth in the not too distant future. Mainly, Apophis. Which is a 1200 foot wide rock!!!!!!!!!! 😱

I visited this site on my way to California in 1970 as an active duty military member. It was almost closing time, so I only got to gaze over the edge. It is an awesome sight. There was a large Iron/Nickel meteorite on display there about three or four feet across. I was thinking it was a fragment from the crater , but it could have been from somewhere else.
@@stevenwhitey3535 According to Wikipedia, the large iron/nickel meteor fragment on display in the visitor center that is about 2.5 feet across is a fragment of the event, but it was found well outside the crater.

There’s another meteor crater in western Texas, near Odessa, Texas; but it’s nowhere near the size of this one. The Odessa crater is 550 ft in diameter, 100 ft deep, and 63,500 years old.
I like this video; but how could they go on for 4+ minutes without ever mentioning Eugene Shoemaker?

Oh, yes! I visited Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, AZ, and met some folks who worked with Gene. It was a HORRIBLE tragedy that sidelined Gene from the astronaut program (medical issue), but he was instrumental in teaching the later Apollo astronauts geology (lunology?) what they needed to look for. It's worth a look at Tom Hanks' series "From The Earth To The Moon".
@@Kpar512 That's tremendous! Great that you got to talk with some of Shoemaker's colleagues! BTW, the lunar counterpart to "geology" is "selenology." "Selene" is the Greek word for "Moon;" "Luna" being the Latin. Fred
They didn’t explain how the crater affects the wind. Small planes can’t fly over it because the wind makes like a vortex of some kind. The wind swirls around the crater and can reach like 100mph gusts.
@@stolearovigor281 Craters are usually made by meteor strikes, sink holes, volcanoes and missiles and bombs striking the ground. The Arizona crater is obviously from a meteor strike.
@@eyecomeinpeace2707 you look like a real pro in this field. I thought we spin with over 1000 mph at equator and everything that falls from fake space, like bs meteorites, it falls not at 90° angle. Btw where is the meteorite? Obviously you have no f clue.
Yeah pay attention!! It couldn’t have hit this visitor center as it’s the not the original one that was built there. Some people just don’t get it I swear. 😉
Yet the meteor vanished...🤦♂️ Bit like the planes..... Dinosaurs were not wiped out....they exist today....the dinosaurs you see in Jurassic park are nothing like they are by their skeletal bones. ... They are birds and share pretty much the exact same bone structures as chickens ostriches turkeys flamingos ect... The history you are taught is fake....it wants you to believe you could get destroyed just like the dinosaurs did... Can you explain how life started again after these meteors apparently killed everything??? Did fish suddenly grow another leg or a wing?? And emerge from the ocean again?? Your perception is brainwashed propaganda without question.....mine was also the same until very recently... The fraud keeps the fake space money laundering team in billions... It's easy to see when you open your eyes that man existed with these beasts......which can be clearly seen in old cave drawings and artifacts.....history is literally full of man slaughtering mighty beasts.....the evidence if you remove your blind fold is crystal clear... Our whole world is based sadly on lies....indoctrination and 24/7 propaganda. ..😔
Actually bro, the meteor that's thought to have wiped out dinosaurs was wayy bigger and also older lolol.. it landed on the Yucatan peninsula, Mexico, look it up. Scans and satellite imagery show the massive double crater it left!
I'm not surprised not many know about it. Not many people do the drive from Albuquerque to Phoenix like I did today on my move. I had heard about it before from Neil degrasse tyson so I made the girlfriend and daughter stop with me.
Amazing! I know of three similar craters in Saudi Arabia. When I first saw them about 20 years ago I thought they were the result of meteorites’ impact. Later on I thought they were volcanic craters even though there weren’t any traces of lava flow coming out from them. Now, after watching this clip I am certain they are the result of of meteorites’ impact, since they are in areas that don’t seem to have had any volcanic activities and they look very much like this crater in Arizona.
Recent findings in a cave have shown that humans may have been in the Americas as far back as 130k years ago. That would mean that humans would have experienced this cataclysm directly. Which is wild to think about.
@@StarboiFloyd go to nature magazine, the most prestigious scientific journal out, you will find what this person is referring to about the 130k year old mastodon bones discovered in south California during highway construction, the bones appeared to be placed in a specific position only humans could do and there also appeared to be an anvil next to the bones. It’a obviously very debated about whether or not humans had anything to do with it but still, it seems very plausible and likely that humans were involved given the detail of the findings and even scientists who worked on the site agree humans were involved.
There used to be a bunch of guys out there that had this truck with HUGE magnets hung close to the ground and they would drive around with a Cling Clack Cling picking up pieces of the meteorite.
@@ForkLift_Certified424 Yes, modern museum's "steal" things. They visited the place and where like "yep. That's mine now* and went back into the plane, instead of being like "Hey, could you guys give us a little piece of the meteor?" Or someone there going "Hey, we still have some small pieces of the meteorite. Which museum wants one around the world, so everyone interested can see it?"
@@ForkLift_Certified424 But we're British! We don't steal stuff, we are the world power and have an Empire! Oh, wait a minute...I might be 150 years out of date on that one! Most of the British museum is full of stuff we nicked when we ruled the world, and everyone wants it back, now!
I'm taking my kids there when ever we have time when we go out to Flagstaff again I've been there once but it will be the first time for them I can't wait for this too maybe someday I'll hike down the crater Beautiful 😍😉❤
no because it wouldn’t have slid to cause the crater. It struck, and created the impact wound. A side éjecta would only show up if it somehow dragged horizontally, which is impossible.
I seen it this summer, if you are ever just cruising through it’s really worth the stop. The military flew over when I was there. I was more impressed by the eagles that were out gliding along the rim and the little hummingbird that joined our group. Way cool experience!
It was coming in really really fast. Estimates of 11 miles per second. There are only fragments of it left. I know they have a piece that weighs about 1000 pounds which doesn’t look very big especially compared to the size of the meteor just before impact.
@@TheMightyOdin you people believe any lie have you ever heard a meteor hit a city of course no never. or in the old books we have to stop believing in any think they said
I visited the place before and was told that they use to let people down there but that they stopped because people would get heat strokes due to there being no cover from the hot Arizona sun
What are chances for that meteor to hit the ground at a 90 degree angle in order to make the perfect round hole? Think about all the different speeds of rotation on its axis, then around the Sun and so on.
I'm a bit confused . The fragment FORMED "Half a BILLION YEARS AGO" (500,000,000 years ago), but the fragment didn't HIT until 50,000 years ago? Are you saying it took 499,950,000 years to orbit around the solar system until it dropped on Arizona?
it started somewhere in the universe probably in an unimaginable distance and then ended up hitting this planet. our solar system is a super small part of the universe.
I love this place. Happy I live within 1hour driving distance. Been there once, I didn't know NASA did training there. It's 20 dollars a person. But it's worth every cent.
Didn’t the guy that first discovered the crater believe it was a volcano depression of some kind? Or maybe it was scientists at the time who thought it was.
That’s a top notch camera man. He risked his life to get us that shot of the impact. Hero.

@@antonioverdad5071 And the geologists looking for meteorite fragments would be sifting through my bone frangments!
Fred
Oh, yes! I visited Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, AZ, and met some folks who worked with Gene. It was a HORRIBLE tragedy that sidelined Gene from the astronaut program (medical issue), but he was instrumental in teaching the later Apollo astronauts geology (lunology?) what they needed to look for. It's worth a look at Tom Hanks' series "From The Earth To The Moon".

@@Kpar512 That's tremendous! Great that you got to talk with some of Shoemaker's colleagues!
BTW, the lunar counterpart to "geology" is "selenology."
"Selene" is the Greek word for "Moon;" "Luna" being the Latin.
Fred
I'm reading about this in A Short History of Nearly Everything, by Bill Bryson. It's a great book.
Very cool
Same!!
Been there a few times, cost around $10.00. Well worth the price, give yourself a good 3-4 hours to see everything!
Tosh.0 knows a lot about geology
Lmao 😂
Good eye
They didn’t explain how the crater affects the wind. Small planes can’t fly over it because the wind makes like a vortex of some kind. The wind swirls around the crater and can reach like 100mph gusts.
Earth spin with over 1000 mph at equator. Lol and there are mountains on Earth. Kinda bigger than this fake meteorite crater.
@@stolearovigor281 fake? So let's see now, you think that Fred Flinstone dug this crater up with Dino the Dinosaur?
@@eyecomeinpeace2707 there are many holes, craters, deeps. Do you think all of them are human made?
@@stolearovigor281 Craters are usually made by meteor strikes, sink holes, volcanoes and missiles and bombs striking the ground. The Arizona crater is obviously from a meteor strike.
@@eyecomeinpeace2707 you look like a real pro in this field. I thought we spin with over 1000 mph at equator and everything that falls from fake space, like bs meteorites, it falls not at 90° angle. Btw where is the meteorite? Obviously you have no f clue.
It just amazes me how close it got to that visitor center without damaging it! Sheesh!!!
No. The crater was formed years before the center. It is explained early in the video. Just pay attention.
@@haleyy68 As David Letterman would say, "Oh, C'mon! It was a joke, ladies and gentlemen, don't sue me!"
@@epicasphalt6298 LOL!!! Of course it was a joke. It amazes me how the younger gen of today takes everything so literally. No humor.
Yeah pay attention!!
It couldn’t have hit this visitor center as it’s the not the original one that was built there. Some people just don’t get it I swear. 😉
Been there twice, '65 & '72. In '72 walked down to the crater floor in a group. Perspective from there is amazing. That is one big hole.
Not me thinking that's what killed the dinos
Yet the meteor vanished...🤦♂️
Bit like the planes.....
Dinosaurs were not wiped out....they exist today....the dinosaurs you see in Jurassic park are nothing like they are by their skeletal bones. ...
They are birds and share pretty much the exact same bone structures as chickens ostriches turkeys flamingos ect...
The history you are taught is fake....it wants you to believe you could get destroyed just like the dinosaurs did...
Can you explain how life started again after these meteors apparently killed everything???
Did fish suddenly grow another leg or a wing?? And emerge from the ocean again??
Your perception is brainwashed propaganda without question.....mine was also the same until very recently...
The fraud keeps the fake space money laundering team in billions...
It's easy to see when you open your eyes that man existed with these beasts......which can be clearly seen in old cave drawings and artifacts.....history is literally full of man slaughtering mighty beasts.....the evidence if you remove your blind fold is crystal clear...
Our whole world is based sadly on lies....indoctrination and 24/7 propaganda. ..😔
@@anthonyferguson4218 did you fail class 2?
Actually bro, the meteor that's thought to have wiped out dinosaurs was wayy bigger and also older lolol.. it landed on the Yucatan peninsula, Mexico, look it up. Scans and satellite imagery show the massive double crater it left!
I'm from Arizona and I didn't even know this
I am Arizona too and I didn’t know that too
I'm not surprised not many know about it. Not many people do the drive from Albuquerque to Phoenix like I did today on my move. I had heard about it before from Neil degrasse tyson so I made the girlfriend and daughter stop with me.
But I am indian but I know everything
This is a trip. I was here in 2017
Seems like a great place for a first date!
This is a deep subject man.
Amazing! I know of three similar craters in Saudi Arabia. When I first saw them about 20 years ago I thought they were the result of meteorites’ impact. Later on I thought they were volcanic craters even though there weren’t any traces of lava flow coming out from them. Now, after watching this clip I am certain they are the result of of meteorites’ impact, since they are in areas that don’t seem to have had any volcanic activities and they look very much like this crater in Arizona.
Thanks for the video. I recently visited there and it was amazing!
That's only 50,000 years old? That's terrifying. This could absolutely happen again.
Recent findings in a cave have shown that humans may have been in the Americas as far back as 130k years ago. That would mean that humans would have experienced this cataclysm directly. Which is wild to think about.
Link ?
Still no link huh? Figured
@@StarboiFloyd go to nature magazine, the most prestigious scientific journal out, you will find what this person is referring to about the 130k year old mastodon bones discovered in south California during highway construction, the bones appeared to be placed in a specific position only humans could do and there also appeared to be an anvil next to the bones. It’a obviously very debated about whether or not humans had anything to do with it but still, it seems very plausible and likely that humans were involved given the detail of the findings and even scientists who worked on the site agree humans were involved.
There used to be a bunch of guys out there that had this truck with HUGE magnets hung close to the ground and they would drive around with a Cling Clack Cling picking up pieces of the meteorite.
Arizona's impact crator.
am Arizonan
Can i use this clip for my science project?
Looks like it just barely missed the visitors center. How lucky was that?
Lmfao.
No. The crater was formed years before the center. It is explained early in the video. Just pay attention.
@@haleyy68 is it autism? It’s autism, right?
If you haven’t seen it with your own eyes, it’s definitely a bucket list must see.
It looks like a giant geiser. I think water made it shooting up from the ground.
Coolest topographical feature I've ever seen & visitied!
Me and my son held a piece of this meteor at the British history museum 😊
@@ForkLift_Certified424 Yes, modern museum's "steal" things.
They visited the place and where like "yep. That's mine now* and went back into the plane, instead of being like "Hey, could you guys give us a little piece of the meteor?" Or someone there going "Hey, we still have some small pieces of the meteorite. Which museum wants one around the world, so everyone interested can see it?"
@@ForkLift_Certified424 But we're British! We don't steal stuff, we are the world power and have an Empire! Oh, wait a minute...I might be 150 years out of date on that one! Most of the British museum is full of stuff we nicked when we ruled the world, and everyone wants it back, now!
Yeah, and Santa Claus had a dinner in my back yard yesterday
@@stolearovigor281 I wondered where he went the rest of the year. Give my regards to Olive the other reindeer!🎅
@@antonioverdad5071 your brother is doing well. He thought you forgot about him.
It was a Clovis cultural burial ground before the visitors centre was built
Simply a bomb that was tested there.
Been there, done that. It is so worth the visit. There is only one complete crater and it is just down the road a piece.
I'm taking my kids there when ever we have time when we go out to Flagstaff again I've been there once but it will be the first time for them I can't wait for this too maybe someday I'll hike down the crater Beautiful 😍😉❤
Who came here after watching a Startalk Explainer from Neil on why craters on the moon are perfect circles?
How was this meteor crater created? A meteor
Wouldn’t it have visible side ejecta if it was in fact an angled impact? I know nothing of geology I’m just asking.
no because it wouldn’t have slid to cause the crater. It struck, and created the impact wound. A side éjecta would only show up if it somehow dragged horizontally, which is impossible.
Amazing how close the meteor was to taking out the visitors center.
That must've been one incredibly durable camera to withstand that meteor impact. They don't make things like they used to.
I seen it this summer, if you are ever just cruising through it’s really worth the stop. The military flew over when I was there. I was more impressed by the eagles that were out gliding along the rim and the little hummingbird that joined our group. Way cool experience!
Would love to visit it one day. Happy Easter you'll
Just visited this place three days ago. It is incredible! Hope you get the chance to experience it as well. Happy Easter to you too!
@@dash3325 ok thank you. On my bucket list
I like what they've done with the place in the last 25 years.
Thx so much!!! Really helpful.
Jeff Bridges and Karen Allen filmed the final scene from Starman (1984) in that crater.
There’s something very special about Arizona..
"How was it formed?" Seriously, tell them you need a box of grid squares while your at it.
At this point in time some of us realise they can make it up as they go along
So how do something that small do all that? Im curious
Did they recovered the meteor rock?
It was coming in really really fast. Estimates of 11 miles per second. There are only fragments of it left. I know they have a piece that weighs about 1000 pounds which doesn’t look very big especially compared to the size of the meteor just before impact.
Yup in the nearby museum they keep the rock but may be its not so old. It may be few century back.
@@TheMightyOdin you people believe any lie have you ever heard a meteor hit a city of course no never. or in the old books we have to stop believing in any think they said
@@tetouani100 WTH are you on about? Your two sentences are gibberish.
@@tetouani100 dafuq did you smoke??
Went here in 2017 on my way to the Grand Canyon. Well worth the trip.
That was a baseball in comparison to others just waiting to pay us a visit.
Can you climb in and out of that?
I'd challenge anyone to convince me that it was coincidence for the meteor to land exactly in the crater. God doesn't play dice my friends.
Haha! Straight fax!!
Imagine the meteor is caseoh
I will never understand how this isn’t part of the NPS system
visited in probably 66 or so. there used to be a crashed Cessna in it. and the infrastructure has definitely changed.
50 thousand years, of lots of animals and natives were here for sure.
Rubio doesn't know the difference between force and energy.
Why can’t people go all the way down?
I visited the place before and was told that they use to let people down there but that they stopped because people would get heat strokes due to there being no cover from the hot Arizona sun
They go they are allowed to visit but a guide.
Cause actually that was created from nuclear testing. The first underground test from the us. This is their cover up story
@@1dirosa1 that doesn't make sense
@@zaddyzach7965 but there in the sun anyways it would’ve taken make a difference
Being down there or up above it...
Are you allowed to hike down into the crater itself?
Who writes these video titles?
Holy crap...
When I saw the title of the video, I had to stop and say…. You have to be kidding
'The meteor crater ? What created this massive hole ?"
Was it a meteor by any chance?
The meteor just missed the visitor center! ;-)
Let me guess .Was the crater caused by an asteroid,which turned into a meteor, and then alot of meteorites ?
Where is this Amphitheater?
Speaking of football stadiums the world cup is coming up in America next, a Barringer crater final game?
I'm guessing the meteor crater was created by a meteor. Call it a hunch.
😂😂😂. gosh golly gee, do you really think so ??
Aw, the young carrying the old.
Imagine this happened now, it probably won’t be a tourists’ attraction.
What are chances for that meteor to hit the ground at a 90 degree angle in order to make the perfect round hole? Think about all the different speeds of rotation on its axis, then around the Sun and so on.
Did it land at 90°? Where is the meteor? Stop spreading bs
1:23 What happend in 1961 that caused the paradigm shift?
Awesome sight.
why no mention of the size of the meteor?
0:22
I'm a bit confused . The fragment FORMED "Half a BILLION YEARS AGO" (500,000,000 years ago), but the fragment didn't HIT until 50,000 years ago? Are you saying it took 499,950,000 years to orbit around the solar system until it dropped on Arizona?
it started somewhere in the universe probably in an unimaginable distance and then ended up hitting this planet. our solar system is a super small part of the universe.
It’s estimation and it isn’t exact numbers like that it’s just rounded and yes it does take stuff that long sometimes to reach earth or other planets
Funny how it looks like it hit straight at 90 degrees.
Been there. It is awesome!!
Without watching the video, I’m guessing a meteor created the meteor crater.
@0:30 were you there? how do you know.
thank you, love the video
It was so lucky, that meteor passed visitor's platform so close!
Bulls*hit. It's an ancient caldera.
I love this place. Happy I live within 1hour driving distance. Been there once, I didn't know NASA did training there. It's 20 dollars a person. But it's worth every cent.
I'm going to make a wild guess here and say, a meteorite.
Didn’t the guy that first discovered the crater believe it was a volcano depression of some kind? Or maybe it was scientists at the time who thought it was.
How lucky was that. it just missed the visitor centre
