Very descriptive video without a word being said - thank you. It would be interesting to measure erosion rates on these cliffs over the past 50 years using aerial and satellite records then extrapolate forwards another 50 years.
Pretty funny someone would build a house thinking the land would never change. Then to top it off you see all the drainage lines hanging. You talk about stupid.
The rock is Jesus 🙏 there is a passage about that in the Bible. 24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: 25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. 26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: 27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it. Matthew 7:24-27
Beckah Mataronas The bankster, knowing of the erosion, woud still finance if the buyer has other colateral... say, a paid up palace in Palos Verdes, or a few bars of gold. When the bought property vanishes into the blue, the small print or legal clause absolving them of any wrong will be waved in court and of course the palace or gold will also disappear into the deep... their very deep pockets. The banksters and land sellers will solace the distraught buyer, saying... "Well, now you do really have land right on the beach"!!!
Ever heard of the Pyramids? What do you think they are built on? Very few people actually build directly on rock and it's not guarantee that your house won't get washed away in a mudslide.
4shacks1house In regards to Dubai, the buildings are all sitting on massive pylons driven into the ground so its stable for now. Im referring to a liquefaction event. It would likely topple the entire city. The Earths Seismic zones seem to be changing and earth quakes are happening in places not known for them. In the off chance one takes place in Dubai the place will be a disaster of biblical proportions. Maybe its already build as a sacrificial city, who knows.

It happened to my auntie. They red tagged her house when the back room started cracking, never let her back in. They would not even let her go in to get her blanket or even a piece of cheese. Her house fell down 4 days later.
I went to school in Pacifica back in the 80's. Used to hang out on those beaches. It's amazing just how much land has been lost since then. Just past the trailer park seen in the vid, there was a row of houses, the last two were demolished a few years ago.
My previous home town, 30 years, better known as Pacifica, California, 12 miles south of San Francisco on the San Mateo county coast line. It is also known affectionately as " P-Town" by locals for the fact that the town has it's "issues" and steps on it's own feet constantly. The beauty is pretty dynamic for a cool weather, central California town of 44,000 and the problems with this Esplanade has nothing to do with riding seas, global climate change, nor El Nin~o rain years, maybe every 5-7 years. It does however have everything to do with a San Andreas fault line running directly underneath it and offshore, the geological makeup of the compressed sand beach cliffs, the lack of rocky topsoil, and the boondoggle of letting any contractor build any structures within a quarter mile of these sandstone cliffs. That get soggy with winter rains, wind erosion, sand dredging along the coastline ( causing higher high tides, bay dredging, harbor dredging) and lack of common sense. Meanwhile, enjoy the view of the small city that lost it's way...I used to fish for striped bass along these shores....
Your grasp of Plate Tectonics is at best shaky (see what I did there). 1) The San Andreas fault is entirely static until it is not, and then the entire world will know about it, not just California. 2) It is way inland from Pacifica and 3) has absolutely nothing to do with coastal erosion. Most of the things that you dismiss as not relevant are indeed relevant along with natural order of things were land is lost on one place and developed in another. Meanwhile it is striking that little or no effort has been made/is being made by the great "can do" country of America to reduce the rate of erosion save for throwing a few rocks into part of the shoreline.
Nope, not if they install dolosse! A breakwater in the ocean absorbing the ocean waves where backline is, sorts out everything. I'll let you google it, a South African invention.
This is beautiful. Love that you quoted Eminem. He writes the most beautiful poetry. Y'all put me in a sentimental mood. I'm gonna go listen to "smack that" now.
I have always tried to understand what people see in building on these cliffs. The other thing that bothers me is that city engineers approve construction on these cliffs. I think it is insane!!
Sometimes it's insanity but sometimes it is because the building was not built on a cliff at all. My wife used to work at a school which was built about 50 years ago more than 350yds from the sea. It fell into that sea about 5 years ago.
@@GT-fi4sk I don't hear it's a new problem, just that the rate is faster than normal. Saying scientist think it's something new seems like the starting of a strawman argument.
I see curtains hanging, cars parked close to the edge, its scary to witness the soil falling into the ocean. And people are occupying the properties it's time to pack up and leave.
Natural sources of beach sand, including rivers and eroding cliffs, have been suppressed by human-built dams and protective coverings. Vitousek served as lead author of a March 2017 modeling analysis from the U.S. Geological Survey that concluded if no measures are taken, up to 67 percent of California's beaches could be completely eroded back to sea cliffs or coastal infrastructure by 2100. Add climate change , sea level has risen by about 8 inches (20 centimeters) since 1900, according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, and could rise 3 to 5 feet (0.9 to 1.5 meters) higher by the end of this century
So is sand deposition. In many places, the sea is retreating as the beaches grow and eventually become solid land. There are many towns that used to be ports but are now two or three miles inland.
Ok, so I clicked on a worksheet in my daughters google classroom, a text document, about erosion. A text document that mentioned Pacifica California. A few hours later this video is in my recommendations. Why exactly is Edward Snowden public enemy number 1??
I'm 61 now, yet when i was a child, there were roads right along the coastline... gone now, & arch formations in sandstone on the beaches in Santa Cruz, that aren't there anymore!
This is super cool. I did a GIS project looking at areas of coastal California that were susceptible to landslides from earthquakes and whatnot. Super cool to see this from the air like this!

@@jayray6844 Erosion is a natural occurrence that is caused by the wind and surf over time. In places where no building or construction has taken place, erosion still occurs. This notion that somehow man is to blame is simply not entirely true. Sure, where land has been bulldozed along the coast, that is a factor but regardless of whether a bulldozer excavated the land or not, erosion would still occur. Anyone who does the research knows this and wouldn't be so ignorant as some who comment on youtube.

People 'blame' global warming? Who? Did anyone here make a comment about global warming? If there is anyone to blame, it is people that are ignorant enough to make up a rhetorical straw-man argument just to argue against. One must wonder... if you need to make up fake arguments just to win them... will you ever actually win anything? Climate change is real and is caused by human actions. Coastal erosion has (as you pointed out) always happened. Coastal erosion has always been a function of the intensity of sea states and storm swells. Climate change IS ALREADY increasing the intensity of sea states and storm swells in the Pacific. Which of these facts do you struggle with?
@@FiferSkipper wow you almost sounded intelligent, what did you do look it up, copy it out of a book. Maybe we should just exterminate all of mankind that would solve global warming. Idiot.

I LOVE it!They deserve it because their development and paving over of this heavenly place probably caused the erosion in the first place.Overpopulation and sprawl sucks.Its good to see Nature win for once.
When u see the gray globs on the beach is oil that the tanker spilled in the ocean in the 70s. Back then the beach was about 20 feet out sand like sugar. If u had crusty feet walk in the sand and your feet smooth in half hour. No more. Once the spill the ocean started to stink the sand became quicksand and the oceans starting to rise. Now the cliffs are gone they were solid. U could have lunch on the cliff watching hang gliders go by. Now it just breaks my 💓.
I can't believe the ocean is so close to the beach. As a kid in the 70s the ocean was a mile out. High tide me in hit the wall but it went back out like normal. High tide just two days a month with full moon. Now with global heat the ocean is actually higher no wonder the solid cliffs are loosing their soil . OMG😥
As a kid in the 50’s we had a house in national city. The back way along the strand to Coronado was sand and swamp land. I understand they built there. Would love to see it.
Buildings on the beachfront, urban outfalls on the beachfront, suburban development near beaches and this is what happens. Everywhere humans build on the beachfront around the world this happens, "experts" never listen to the locals, governments never learn from previous mistakes because it was the other guy/party.
As a native Californian (I usually take the 22 to the 605 to the 105 to then get of at Cahuenga) I've never understood why building permits are allowed on the coast or in dry brush areas. The CA coast is just compacted alluvial soil, not granite. Go for it, you get no insurance coverage then. Your loss, not the tax-payers via FEMA to rebuild your ugly McMansions.
u can see the layers of sand. each layer giving u a different time line as to when the sand was deposited. an left behind. while the black sand along the beach is common for gold. left behind as the softer sand and silt is pulled out to sea by wave action an tidal pull. leaving gold behind in the black sands aka iron oxide. ore. an other minerals. such as copper an gemstones washed down. as it rains. From higher elevations
Almost all of the homes within a mile or sometimes more are built on sand in this area and most of san francisco. I built alot of foundations and repared old ones for 12 years in this area .

@@jage5256 very true. Some coast line homes had even more land from the cliffs. Yards of 150 feet and then 50 from coast. They are now in the ocean. Very sad because it is beautiful up there.
It is surprising that local/city/state agencies would still allow use/development of any of this coastline. Why is there still so many houses, cars, etc still there?

Pacifica is where the San Andreas Fault dips into the ocean to cross the Golden Gate. It runs from here to Drakes Bay, across the outlet for San Francisco Bay and all the inland California rivers. The area is really unstable and eventually San Francisco will be entirely gone into the ocean.

@@jayray6844 Erosion is a natural occurrence that is caused by the wind and surf over time. In places where no building or construction has taken place, erosion still occurs. This notion that somehow man is to blame is simply not entirely true. Sure, where land has been bulldozed along the coast, that is a factor but regardless of whether a bulldozer excavated the land or not, erosion would still occur. Anyone who does the research knows this and wouldn't be so ignorant as some who comment on youtube.
Parable of the 2 builders
The Parable of the Two Builders Based on Matthew 7: 24-29 and Luke 6: 46-49. Mat 7:24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: Mat 7:25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. Mat 7:26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: Mat 7:27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it. Mat 7:28 And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine: Mat 7:29 For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.
and
Luk 6:46 And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say? Luk 6:47 Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like: Luk 6:48 He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock. Luk 6:49 But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.
People blame global worming, talking about the Ocean rising. but it’s just Mother Nature People are living in places that shouldn’t be inhabited.
global worming - you mean like Dune?
Exactly, this is erosion that would happen regardless
But global warming and climate change will make it happen a lot more
People 'blame' global warming? Who? Did anyone here make a comment about global warming?
If there is anyone to blame, it is people that are ignorant enough to make up a rhetorical straw-man argument just to argue against.
One must wonder... if you need to make up fake arguments just to win them... will you ever actually win anything?
Climate change is real and is caused by human actions.
Coastal erosion has (as you pointed out) always happened.
Coastal erosion has always been a function of the intensity of sea states and storm swells.
Climate change IS ALREADY increasing the intensity of sea states and storm swells in the Pacific.
Which of these facts do you struggle with?
@@FiferSkipper wow you almost sounded intelligent, what did you do look it up, copy it out of a book. Maybe we should just exterminate all of mankind that would solve global warming. Idiot. Maybe all of mankind can just go back before the 1500 hundred and live like the native Indians again. If you can give up your lattes and cell phones.
It's a shame that all that debris will end up in the ocean. Authorities need to do what they can to get area cleaned before collapsing.
where I come from we put the sand pile next to the house we're building , rather than putting the house on top of the sand pile....🤤
I LOVE it!They deserve it because their development and paving over of this heavenly place probably caused the erosion in the first place.Overpopulation and sprawl sucks.Its good to see Nature win for once.
tomterahedrob ...like it always does.
This Video ist already 7 yrs old. Are there still some Houses left???
Even the caveman was wise enough to know where to live.
Oceans will say: Sorry my friends, your my breakfast for today.
Whoever builds houses on the top of a mountain then that’s to be expected
He who built he house on the sand...
Sir this foundation is made of soft sand, how many tons of concrete do we need??
Home owner: Yes
When u see the gray globs on the beach is oil that the tanker spilled in the ocean in the 70s. Back then the beach was about 20 feet out sand like sugar. If u had crusty feet walk in the sand and your feet smooth in half hour. No more. Once the spill the ocean started to stink the sand became quicksand and the oceans starting to rise. Now the cliffs are gone they were solid. U could have lunch on the cliff watching hang gliders go by. Now it just breaks my 💓.
Музыка супер! Видео шикарное! Земля сверху такая красивая.
I can't believe the ocean is so close to the beach. As a kid in the 70s the ocean was a mile out. High tide me in hit the wall but it went back out like normal. High tide just two days a month with full moon. Now with global heat the ocean is actually higher no wonder the solid cliffs are loosing their soil . OMG😥
You can't believe that the ocean is so close to the beach?? Wow...
It's no wonder you believe in global warming, time to wake up.
LOL
I'd be terrified walking along those beaches with all those spooky sounds going on.
Yeppers! 😱🏖️🌊
I wouldn't expect to see businesses on the bluff, only expensive houses.
Cheap apartments is more like it. The expensive houses are farther inland here.
I'm surprised since there's an ocean view.
smart buyers know mansions in this area are uninsurable...so the land goes to a lesser use...like a parking lot for RVs
Love your work.
We didn't buy a house with access to the beach but we have one now! 😅
Just a quick jump away
Great video and it really highlights a huge problem. wow... Thanks for providing some serious perspective.
Kelly Beem I don't see a problem. The ocean hits dirt and rock and it erodes away. That's what water does.
Kelly Beem yeah..no problem here that wasn't totally predictable. Pretty small potatoes in the grand scheme of things.....not a very huge area
only a problem for those rich assholes
The only problem is people build where nature has always done her work! Can't blame nature for that!
California falling into the sea? No problem here, just Mother Earth doing what she wants with what is rightfully hers.
As a kid in the 50’s we had a house in national city. The back way along the strand to Coronado was sand and swamp land. I understand they built there. Would love to see it.
Buildings on the beachfront, urban outfalls on the beachfront, suburban development near beaches and this is what happens.
Everywhere humans build on the beachfront around the world this happens, "experts" never listen to the locals, governments never learn from previous mistakes because it was the other guy/party.
The ocean wins, everytime!
As a native Californian (I usually take the 22 to the 605 to the 105 to then get of at Cahuenga) I've never understood why building permits are allowed on the coast or in dry brush areas. The CA coast is just compacted alluvial soil, not granite.
Go for it, you get no insurance coverage then. Your loss, not the tax-payers via FEMA to rebuild your ugly McMansions.
u can see the layers of sand. each layer giving u a different time line as to when the sand was deposited. an left behind.
while the black sand along the beach is common for gold. left behind as the softer sand and silt is pulled out to sea by wave action an tidal pull. leaving gold behind in the black sands aka iron oxide. ore. an other minerals. such as copper an gemstones washed down. as it rains. From higher elevations
Cliffs look like sandstone.
Almost all of the homes within a mile or sometimes more are built on sand in this area and most of san francisco. I built alot of foundations and repared old ones for 12 years in this area .
4 years ago.
I wonder what it looks like now and if the buildings and roads are still there.
Такое чувство, что там давали землю так "Хочешь бери и строй тут,всё что произойдёт, это твои проблемы"
Интересно, куда все смотрели, когда там все строили? Или ничего не предвещало? Да и в России на черном море тоже самое, подмывает дома страшно. Все хотят у самого синего моря.....
Страховка всё покроет
@@veraschink40 А вы поищите инф поЧерноморску Одесской обл.! Аналогичная ситуация!
It's not EROSION. The land is shaped by the sea. Only a fool would think the coast is a constant and not a variable
The ocean doing its thing
Would be interesting to see the difference 5 years later...
Lol I wonder how many Of these people made jokes about people building in tornado alley
whoever lives in those cliff side houses is here for a good time not a long time
The house at 6:16, Kudos to them that pored that concrete.
Riding Mower Thanks, that was me. I did it. kudos to me.
your right who ever poured that concrete really did a good job
Mr808Late - ....and will take the house and several neighbors with it!
It's wood, not concrete.
@@chrisfuller2069 Nonetheless the same result when confronted by a relentless tide of water...
Great video and Awesome music! Great job.
It should have been no geologic mystery that this ground is all sand an unsuitable for any kind of development.
I'm wondering, does anyone clean up the mess after it has fallen down or is it left to the ocean?
Your house is supposed to be built on rock not sand
Here in Colombia there is a popular song called "La casa en el aire" (House in the air) the first verse translated goes:
"I'm going to make you a house in the air, just for you to live", that was the first thing that came up to my mind with this video.
That's way too close for comfort. They should have standard distances for specs to build so close to the water.
JC #1 are you kidding? You have any idea how much they sold that kind of land for? Then the taxes? $$$ matters, not what's going to happen later.
And those that bought there? Proves that cause you got $$$ don't necessarily mean you got brains, eh?
They did! These were made in the 60s and 70s. My friends apt us where u see it hanging. Her balcony had like 40 feet out then the cliff. I can't believe global warming and the seas rising did this in 30 years!!! OMG
@@jage5256 very true. Some coast line homes had even more land from the cliffs. Yards of 150 feet and then 50 from coast. They are now in the ocean. Very sad because it is beautiful up there.
@@darkeststar3640 sure is. So sad
impressive and important footage!! can i have a link to the music, please?
I lived there and the beach erodes, nothing new
these vids are far better with just the sound of the wind and waves
That's called new beach front property!! What u paid is now under water!!! Just like your house loan!!
its ok, insurance will pay them, and your rates will increase.
It is surprising that local/city/state agencies would still allow use/development of any of this coastline. Why is there still so many houses, cars, etc still there?
The background music really frightening me
BWWWAAAAAHHAHAHAAAAAA!!!
This is the most incredible HD video I've ever seen but I guess it won't be running on the big TV's at Best Buy.
No skateboarding in those backyards!
skateboarding is not a crime! =8D
Not just here this happens everywhere in the world.
Господи и там , до сих пор, живут люди😫! Навала камней недостаточно! Советую посмотреть как "Ласточкино гнездо" в Крыму предохраняется от разрушения! И то не очень помогает
So where is the (spectacular) video of the raging ocean and surf when all this coastal erosion took place?!
Pacifica is where the San Andreas Fault dips into the ocean to cross the Golden Gate. It runs from here to Drakes Bay, across the outlet for San Francisco Bay and all the inland California rivers. The area is really unstable and eventually San Francisco will be entirely gone into the ocean.
And Gov Pelosi will say, "You have to build the house to find out if it will collapse".
Karma mother nature, let's see you shake the shit out of it & watch it slide in.
Could itbe that the extra pressure from the Houses are reason for Sand to give way?
build a house on a sandy cliff over the ocean, this is the result.
Sitting round singing songs 'til the night turns into day.
Used to sing about the mountains, but the mountains washed away.
