High Spring Tide 10.1m Hits Ilfracombe Sea Front
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 бер 2020
- High Spring Tide water levels at 10.1 metres with large swell running which is enough to push waves over the sea wall, at the near end the wall is low allowing the floodwater to re-enter the sea, water will also dangerously surge over.
In the Harbour area the water is high enough to cover the Quayside in & around high tide.
It's a shame no-one thought to move the bins!
Some ass is in trouble.
my wife would have been nagging about them the day before.
I just saw another video from the same place where many people hadn't moved their cars off this parking lot. Several of them were damaged. That's much worse than a few dustbins.
The sea is trying its best
Nominal!
Knowing the storm and high tides were coming, why didn’t the council arrange to move those bins before all the contents are strewn all over the place? Typical council
That would mean using common sense!
More work... Don't be daft
Bins are halfway to America now!!
And 6 months later they arrive back at Ilfracombe reclaiming there spot where they were kept.
And that's without back up life insurance even for Bins.
Never turn your back on the sea, I pray you are wearing a life jacket. Just love the sounds of the waves crashing 🌊🌊🌊
Dude so awesome you are getting millions of views on the aug 2023 video. Great filming.
Good job there werent the usual cars parked in that little car park there!
Not surprised there's so much crap & plastic in our oceans , whoever thought it would be the best idea to place these bins next to the rising sea levels over at Ilfracombe council isn't very bright
Commercial waste isn’t the Council’s responsibility, it’s the businesses, and their waste collection provider. 🙂
A few bins compared to rivers of plastic in other countries 🤔
try going to a third world country.
Yeah the bins should've been moved if they know they are getting high tides instead of all the plastic and shit going back into the sea
The bins look happy
I think it would have been a bit more helpful if you’d moved those bins right at the beginning - or were you enjoying the dramatic effects? 😢
0:28 I wonder how many bins survive. You would think they would either move them on chain then to something.
Now THAT is some VERY scary, angry looking seas! My idea of Hell would be on a boat (literally any kind?) in rough seas like this. I LOVE the sea but am also terrified by it at the same time.
Wonderful reading, @davekennedy6315. Thanks for your comment. I think you've described one of the great interactions with nature: to fear and yet love it. I feel fortunate to experience the fear/love conundrum; it does not run cohesively through my mind but for nature. I notice the most intense component of that love is respect. I respect and, in my way, love snakes. And, yes, I am terrified of them, but I would never hurt one unless it was a me or thee situation. and even then, I'm not sure I would injure a snake. I embrace the reality that some day my life will be extinguished at the "hands" of nature. What an amazing world!
@@susanelainesanner so true regarding snakes. As a kid i always liked the idea of having a pet snake. they are often incredibly pretty looking creatures in their own way. Yet being actually near a snake (in a glass tank, so i was perfectly safe) i soon changed my mind about having one as a pet. I always appreciated sharks, tigers, scorpions, lions, bears etc.Predators. Fear/love, beautiful but scary. Nature in general, seas, wind, storms, tornados, scary but also hypnotically stunning and breathtaking. All very impressive yet also terrifying at the same time. Makes us feel more alive maybe? Being comfortably near danger? Amazing world indeed.
@@davekennedy6315 Yes, when the wind blows hard, when thunder comes with rain, when snow and wind close the roads and schools, I feel more alive. I'm not as adventurous in those expressions of nature's as I was thirty years ago, but the memories survive and remind me of the thrill of dangerous weather "being comfortably near . . . ". I've been watching (better than medicine!) the volcano in Iceland, Fagradalsfjall, although live streaming seems to been finished for now, until the next eruption.
Well, I think those waves are not even higher than 5ft. But they appear much higher because of their reflection on the wall. By sloshing back they are doubled when meeting other waves. And the wall makes them splashing enormously. No place for taking a bath anyway. :D
Why didn’t you pull the bins back, and prevent all that litter entering the sea?!?!?!
my guises is too much risk, thoese waves can very quickly trip you and if that happens its game over
Where have you bin ?
knowing a high tide was coming why didn't someone move the bins beforehand.
sick!!
Water can be your friend or foe😮
Where about in ilfracombe is this I live in ilfracombe can’t work out where it is recognise the hill in background just can’t work out where stood? First part I mean
Cheyne.
@@sandpit72 Watched a video on here from a few days ago in exact same carpark, a few cars were damaged, just noticed it was you're channel lol.
That’s the first thing I thought. When I saw the sea and the bins they will be floating out to sea shortly. Could bedsngetousvand no body thought about shifting. Them 😠😠😠😠😠😠
We all thought about moving them but are too far away. I was glad the videographer kept focused on both the sea and where he stood in relation to the sea. He seemed very aware of his priorities. Once the bins were standing in water, it was too late to try to move them and would have taken several strong individuals working together to get the bins to high land before the next flooding wave arrived.
Who left them bins there
The council and their bright ideas
And someone told me it was Bill and Ben the Flowerpot Men with Bob the Builder and postman Pat. Next they will blame Skippy the Bush Kangaroo.
Who left the bins out who who who
It is the best🎉😂❤😢😮😅😊😅
😮
holy shit
Ooooooooh NOOOOOO!!!
"The new moon tides are a pale shadow of things to come." Jesus
Crazy people
Dont mess with nature
Why build so low to water knowing the spring tides happen.
They didnt, erosion has moved the coast closer and closer to the town till its basically on top of the water, weve lost quite a few towns that where once 20 miles inland to the sea, just ow nature works unfortunately, its why theres a duel sea wall, to try and slow down the rate that the coast is vanishing
Why didn't you move the bins, all that waste in the ocean!
This seems extremely dangerous what you are doing.
#
Buildings so close to the sea is not the greatest idea. 🤣😂🤣
they likely wernt when it was built, the sea eaten up the land and come to the town, not much can be done over the sea defences and hoping
Why wouldn't you haul.the trash bins away before the storm.surge hit?
Do you work for Biden or what?...🤨
its england, not america, as for why, probably didnt think about the bins when they are running the town
