Oh right! We're back to Andrew on his surf board again? Has Brian Coxs seen this? There are numerous factors which affect our tides: Centrifugal, Coriolis, Euler and Gravity are all inertial forces which result from the Earth's axial rotation and our orbital motion around a common centre of mass with the Moon and Sun. The shape of the coastline, amphidromic motion, currents, water depth, salinity and weather also play a part. However, if you were to glance at a selection of the most popular tidal explanations, they will tell you it's just gravity pulling water upwards, and the Earth moves towards the Moon leaving water behind. That is not only a gross oversimplification, but it also shows a total lack of knowledge regarding basic Physics.
judging from their reaction, the lightning people were more like hobbyist/enthusiast rather than scientists gathering data. their exaggerated reactions are unnecessary
Which of these stunning natural phenomena do you find most interesting? Tell us below 👇
the part about lightnings!
FANTASTIC video especially the lightning!!!! They sounded like little kids watching fireworks for the first time.
We're glad you enjoyed!
@BBCEarthScience No thanks needed! I am a true fan of your videos.
fantastic video great voice lighting looking forward to that yes

It's a personal taste - I would prefer without the music and the overly dramatic narration. Perhaps this is a necessity for the social media hits?
It's BBC, that's there typical style, it's comparable in style to "Planet Earth" series with Sir David Attenborough narration.
Great footage. Creepy and unnecessary voice.
Super necessary
YAY!!!!!!!!!!
😂
ECELLANT AMEZING THANK YOU SIR
30:30 18:50 insane footage
33:50
The breathless narrator is a bit much.
