Arrowheads! Now those I haven't seen (though I'm SURE you found some). Sincere kudos, GN

Thank you.

THERE YOU ARE! I've been trying to find your contact info, so GREAT Timing. I've FINALLY located all our White Fang scripts - Season 2 Outlines - etc. And I HAVE found 5 of the 6 VHS Tapes. Turns out, there were supposed to be another 25 Episodes in Season 2, but we only managed to get SIX produced before the show was shut down. BUT... We wrote a WHOLE bunch more scripts in advance (15 or 16? ). However, they're all on old 1 1/4" Floppy Discs - so I'm trying to rig up a convertor. Now.. Once that's done, HOW do I get all this info to YOU? Any ideas? Let me know here. Cheers, GN

Thank you for taking the time to comment. Cheers, GN

I know what you mean - but if they hadn't "fiddled with" the horseshoe back in the 50's, it would have eroded back into a notch with dry river banks on both sides. Back in '69, The Americans were hoping to remove a lot of the talus from the base of the US Falls, but decided against that after discovering the cliff-face rock was rotten. But I hear they're planning a new look when they have to "turn off The Falls" again for bridge repair. Hope they're VERY careful or they may loose the US Falls and end up with "The American Rapids"...

As I explained in the video, this was an examination of TWO timelines; the cutting of the Gorge over the past ~12.5 THOUSAND years, and the ensuing revelation of buried rock layers, which tell the story of the whole area {AND North America) over the past 500 MILLION -1/2 BILLION years. Thanks for taking time to comment.

Sorry sir.. Even you are wrong. Two separate men have actually done the genealogy from Adam to the present day and they both come up with a little less than 6900 years. The millions and billions of years have a way of ruining a documentary - although this man is incredible as a tour guide..

Thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed the video. "Niagara Glen{n}"

Thanks for taking the time to comment. Re the "alternate" possible creation of the Gorge in a MUCH shorter time... I understand your points. Could this be more like the "Lake Missoula" floods that created "The Scablands"? The thing to bear in mind is that The Niagara Gorge was one of the first regions to be studied INTENSIVELY for an estimate of "time to create," and just about every aspect of The Falls 7-mile journey has been studied and proven after NUMEROUS investigations into its past. Other than a 5-thousand year "pause" around Niagara Glen, the Gorge has actually cut back VERY fast. As the ice retreated EARLY in Niagara's history, there were at least FIVE Falls tumbling over the Escarpment. (all originating in a MUCH smaller Lake Erie). But eventually, it was the Falls at Queenston that "won out." Re the Whirlpool & St. David's Buried Gorge: The OLD gorge was buried by glacial debris, and the NEW current gorge "ate" its way back at 90 degrees to the older one. When the Falls reached Thompson Point, it broke through the rock wall - and HERE - YOU'RE RIGHT. The Falls VERY quickly "ate" back about a mile to the current two bridges (just before the "modern Gorge" widens). As the waters only had to remove loose detritus, this DID happen in a relatively short time. "Normal erosion" only resumed once The Falls reached the cliff-face at the OLD Gorge's (underwater) terminus. When water levels are low, you can still see the old NARROW "St. David's gorge" in the centre of the "Whirlpool Rapids." And while a "funnel of meltwater" {such as we're seeing now in Greenland) might appear to be an explanation for the Whirlpool - the entire length of the buried gorge has been explored in SO much detail, that we now understand exactly HOW it formed, HOW it was buried, and HOW/WHY it was re-excavated. HOWEVER... If you want to explore a REAL mystery... Go to Google Earth and take a look at the so-called "Short Hills" area running parallel, west of The Welland Canal. From Port Maitland (on the North shore of Lake Erie), to the South shore of Lake Ontario (N of Decew Falls), the land is VERY disturbed and drillings have shown this is apparently glacial debris from an even EARLIER gorge that pre-dates St David's. There's LOTS to explore there and many mysteries STILL to be answered... Thanks again for your interest, Cheers, "Niagara Glen{n}"

Glad you enjoyed it. And thanks for taking the time to comment.

How wonderful that you LIVE there! I live 3 hours north, so don't get down there as often as I'd like. BTW: I'm also 75 - and just the thought of climbing back up all those stairs at Niagara Glen{n}/The Whirlpool, EXHAUSTS me. So - Good on ya for still pulling that off. 💖

@@fearwidge I started out late only a few years ago exercising like biking and walking! I also work out in virtual reality which I started due to Covid. Today I went 22 km on the Welland canal trail. What I’m trying to say is it’s never too late to start exercising and train your heart plus cutting out all the sh. T from my food intake also helped a lot! ❤️

Wrote a long response. YT "ATE IT." Will try again soon. GRRRRR. 😡

Thanks for your comment, James. So glad you're exploring ALL of Niagara's sights. Re best season... I shot most of the footage for this vid (over 3-years) in early spring - before the leaves are on the trees. Otherwise that thick, green foliage hides a lot of the details. Late fall/early winter (AFTER the leaves are off the trees) also works. And there's less danger of rocks falling on your head during the spring thaw. 😆😎

Thank YOU for taking the time to comment. Cheers, GN

Thank you for your kind comment. Sincerely glad you enjoyed the video. Cheers, "Niagara Glenn."

And Thank YOU for the kind words ... youngster. (I'm currently 75!!!) 😯 So glad it brought back happy memories. Cheers, GN

And THANK YOU for your kind & generous comment. So glad you enjoyed it. (And feel free to come back any time.) 🤫

Thanks for taking the time to comment. Apologies for the delay in responding... I can understand why Americans might be upset over the "remediation work" done to the Horseshoe Falls back in 1954. At first glance, it would appear that all that work was solely to benefit the Canadian side. But the truth is a lot more complicated. The main purpose of all those changes was to divert more water from above the Falls and send it to the massive power plants downstream on both sides of the gorge near Lewiston. Canada has the two "Sir Adam Beck" Power Plants. The U.S. has the GIANT "Robert Moses" Power Plant. However, the U.S. needed MORE water diverted, so the TWO countries searched for a way to get what BOTH sides needed. A big part of the problem in diverting 75% of the water for power was that both the Canadian AND American sides now had a lot of bare rock near the brink where there used to be water. So, both the U.S. & Canada worked together to deepen the riverbed in the centre of the "pool" above the Falls (to create a greater source for diverted water). Then BOTH sides had fill added near the brink to create observation sites - at "Terrapin Point" in the States - and at "Table Rock" in Canada. Our two countries also took the opportunity to stop a "notch" eroding back at the centre of the Falls, and restore that true "Horseshoe" shape all the way around the brink. I'll stress here that the entire Terrapin Point Observation Area was designed by the U.S. And while I was also initially disappointed that The Terrapin Rocks had been lost, the first time I crossed into the States to explore the wonderful NATURAL sights all around Goat Island (the 3 Sisters Islands - The Green Cascade - etc.), I was shocked and DELIGHTED to discover - THE TERRAPIN ROCKS ARE STILL THERE!!! When visiting Terrapin Point, your attention is naturally drawn to the spectacular view of the brink & the sensual sweep of the curved Horseshoe Falls. BUT... Next time you're there, turn RIGHT, follow along the fence-line, look down towards the edge of the cliff and you'll see - looking VERY much like the backs of turtles - THE TERRAPIN ROCKS lying on the abandoned brink in all their historic glory. And while it's true that the Horseshoe Falls now lie almost entirely inside Canada - as the Falls continue eroding back, it won't be long (geologically speaking) before almost a THIRD of those Falls will lie inside the States again. (Meanwhile - due to an error by the USGS in mapping exactly where the US/Canadian border truly lies - most people are unaware that all those massive boulders down below Terrapin Point actually lie in CANADA!!! Then again - downstream - where The Spanish Aero-Car has been traveling over the Whirlpool for the past 108 years, the centre part of its "journey" is actually in AMERICAN Air Space. But as our two countries are friends, both have decided to ignore these small "border transgressions" in the spirit of "live & let live." Sincerely hope this (overly-long) reply gives you some of the answers you were looking for. All the best & cheers, "Niagara Glenn."

Thank you so very much. Cheers, GN

Sorry, I don't speak Italian (though my mother was FLUENT)! But I've tried to "Google Translate" the text from the info above. Hope this helps GN >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Il 12 marzo 2011, Amanda Franklin e suo marito Kyle si sono schiantati dopo che il loro aereo ha subito un guasto al motore. Entrambi sono rimasti gravemente ustionati, soprattutto Amanda, che da allora lotta per la sua vita. Ma ieri sera la stampa ha riferito: Il 27 maggio, Kyle ha pubblicato il seguente aggiornamento per i fan della squadra, 'È con il cuore spezzato che vi dico che la mia bellissima ragazza Amanda è morta questa sera alle 22:10 ora centrale. Accanto a lei c'erano il suo adorante marito Kyle, sua madre Jeanie, suo fratello Matt, sua cognata Michelle e la sua devota suocera Audean.' Segue la biografia di Amanda: ............................ Amanda Franklin, era la figlia del leggendario pilota dello spettacolo aereo Bobby Younkin. Era la moglie di Kyle Franklin, la sorella di Matt Younkin e, soprattutto, era il "cervello" dietro i "Figli delle leggende". In qualità di Business Manager sia per Franklin's Flying Circus che per Younkin Airshows, Inc., è stata responsabile di tutte le attività di prenotazione e sponsorizzazione degli spettacoli aerei. Amanda è cresciuta tra aeroplani e spettacoli aerei. Da piccola, era sempre con suo padre Bobby mentre firmava autografi e interagiva con la folla. Amanda ha lavorato per Bobby dall'età di 14 anni fino all'ultimo anno di scuola superiore, elaborando i documenti degli spettacoli aerei e imparando tutti i tipi di dettagli relativi agli spettacoli aerei. Amanda ha imparato a volare e a pilotare da sola un aereo all'età di 16 anni. Era un'esperta pilota di ruote di coda e multimotore, avendo volato su 12 diversi tipi di aerei prima della sua prematura scomparsa. Risiedeva con suo marito Kyle e due cani viziati a Neosho, Missouri. Quando non volava, Amanda passava la maggior parte del tempo a tenere Matt e Kyle fuori dai guai! Amanda è stata l'annunciatrice a tempo pieno di Beech 18 di Matt Younkin dal 2007. E nel 2009, è diventata anche la camminatrice a tempo pieno di Kyle "Pirated Skies". Che tenga in mano un telefono, un microfono o un montante alari, è innegabile che Amanda sia stata il collante che tiene unita la squadra di "Sons of Legends", esibendosi in spettacoli aerei in tutto il paese. ............................ Per quanto riguarda questo tributo: ho saputo della morte di Amanda solo cinque ore fa e, come tanti altri che hanno seguito la sua storia e speravano freneticamente nella sopravvivenza di Amanda, sono rimasto devastato dalla notizia. Essendo anch'io un ex pilota di uno spettacolo aereo, ho sentito un disperato bisogno di fare QUALCOSA... così ho messo insieme questo tributo in memoria di Amanda. Tieni presente che nessuno dei contenuti è di mia proprietà. La maggior parte delle immagini provengono dalla pagina "Franklin's Flying Circus" su Facebook. Altre immagini provengono da Internet e, ove possibile, i titolari dei diritti d'autore sono citati. La canzone "Learning to Fly" è stata scritta da Kal Mollison ed eseguita dalla sua band, "Sandcastle Theory". Se qualcuno dovesse opporsi all'uso dei suoi contenuti, fatemelo sapere e lo rimuoverò... anche se spero sinceramente che non lo facciate perché spero che questo video possa spingere alcuni spettatori a fare donazioni per le orribili spese mediche adesso affrontato dai sopravvissuti di Amanda. Mi è stato detto che le donazioni possono essere effettuate tramite il seguente url: www.moonlightfund.org/index.ph... Sembra legittimo, ma sentiti libero di ricontrollare queste informazioni tu stesso. (Maggiori informazioni e un secondo sito per le donazioni, qui: www.franklinairshow.com/Home%2... ) A Kyle: Non ci sono davvero parole che possano superare lo straordinario dolore che stai soffrendo... ma potresti trovare un po' di conforto in una verità che mi ha stupito durante i miei 62 anni. "L'AMORE NON MUORE MAI." L'amore che hai condiviso con Amanda non svanirà mai, non diminuirà mai, finché vivrai. Sarà sempre lì, forte come lo è oggi... proprio come se ti stesse aspettando nella stanza accanto. Conta. E ad Amanda: dormi bene, donna coraggiosa e coraggiosa... "Ti ascolteremo nel vento."

Great! I'll plug you if you plug me. 🤭😎 (Let me know next time you're live...)

Thanks for jogging my rapidly-aging memory, Hunter. I've FOUND them, but have to get (working) VHS & DVD Players hooked up to a 'Puter to convert to digital & upload.. It's on my list - but I have a LONG list - and I'm 75 now - so as long as I don't die...) 😆 Feel free to jog my memory again in a few months... Cheers, GN

Thanks for the feedback ! So glad u found the tapes. Take your time . A friend of mine from Quebec Canada was a close friend to the cast member Jaimz and would be so cool in the future to show my niece and nephews the full version of white fang and get a piece I never got to see as a kid ! Keep up the good work man !

@@hunterjohnson3001 Strangely enough, we were the Exec Story Editors for the final eps of "White Fang ," then became the Exec Story Editors for "Mysterious Island." Both Series were shot in New Zealand. "White Fang" starred "Jaimz Woolvett." "Mysterious Island" co-starred Jaimz' brother, Gordon Woolvett. So, in the early 90's, we felt like The Woolvett Family's "Personal Screenwriters."😆😎

Thanks for the info. I'll look it up. Cheers, GN

Ah! "Happy Flying." Many thanks...

Oh my heavens! That is so very kind of you I'm always delighted by such positive feedback, but I must say YOUR comment is the most touching I've ever received. Coming from someone who lives & works on The Niagara Gorge, this means so much to me. My sincerest thanks, "Niagara Glenn" P.S.: I've always meant to ride the Niagara Jet Boat, just to see the gorge from what-must-be an extraordinary POV. I'm 75 now... Then again - I still fly antique airplanes... So - maybe??? 🤔😎

The Jet boat ruined it for me going down the Glen. You get the people in the boat in a frenzy screaming with the megaphone. I used to go down there to enjoy the peace and quiet. Thanks again for ruining it.

Me too. 😎 (Thanks. I'll pass this on to Michelle.)

BTW: You might also enjoy a video we put together for a "Degrassi Fan Convention" ~4 years ago. (Michelle played teacher Ms Avery in the teen cult-hit TV show.) We lifted the central part from the video you've seen, but the take-off & landing has a lot of Go-Pro shots from Michelle's POV. (Note: As this vid was screened at the "Degrassi Palooza Fan Convention," at the end, Michelle is handing off to her alter-ego, "Ms Avery," live on stage.) 🤭😎 Check our "channel" fearwidge for more vids of Michelle flying her Piet and various other antique airplanes.

I'll check it out.@@fearwidge

Thanks so much. I thoroughly enjoyed Parts One & Two of your "Highlights from the American side." You have some REALLY nice footage which gives a "You Are There" feel for viewers. Well done, and I hope you get a chance to take a Tour of the Gorge from The Canadian side some day. I'll post links to your videos in a "pinned comment" up above. All the best & Cheers, Niagara Glenn 😎

@@fearwidge Thank you so much for sharing our video! It makes me happy to see that other people enjoy our adventures with us. Yes Canadian side is definitely on our bucket list. I heard there is so much to explore there. Thank you again and stay warm!

Wonderful. Glad you had a good time. Thanks for commenting. Cheers, GN

Thank you so much for the kind words. And a Happy New Year to you too, Cheers, GN

I shot the video from the Canadian side as this was originally created for The Niagara Parks Commission. I've written before how many great sights there are to see on the American side & wish I could have shot both - but NPC just wanted the Canuck side. Re Red Green: Rick Green (the show's co-creator & star of the b/w sequences) is a good friend of ours (and a great guy). Thanks for taking the time to comment, GN

"lame"? are you from the 90's? is there any reason you feel as though you need to antagonize , are you ok? "Hurt people, hurt people." take care & I hope you find happiness.@wellandwattsup

"lame"....? r u from the 90's, why do you feel as thought you need to antagonize? are you ok? "Hurt people, hurt people." I hope you find happiness & a fulfilling purpose so that you feel complete inside, comfortable with yourself, & confident.@wellandwattsup

Thank you for the kind words.. Wish I could have had time to shoot the U.S. side as well. There are so many GREAT sights to see. I particularly enjoy Goat Island & touring all of the Three Sisters. Also "Cave of the Winds" and "Devil's hole." Hopefully someone on the U.S. side will decide to do just that. All the best & cheers, GN

Done it. GREAT Experience. As was exploring the 3 Sisters Islands off Goat Island. LOTS to see on the U.S. side of the gorge as well. Thanks & cheers, GN

Appreciate it.

Thank you so much for your kind words and I sincerely hope you have a GREAT time exploring all Niagara has to offer when you visit here next fall. All the best & Cheers, "Niagara Glenn"

Michelle Goodeve is one & the same as teacher Ms Avery on Degrassi Junior High & Degrassi High (currently airing on Amazon Prime & KZbin). Michelle's been a Pilot since she was 16 and you can see many more videos of Michelle flying several rare Antique Aircraft by clicking on our KZbin Channel name fearwidge (below the video viewer above.). She even made a "virtual Flight" in her Piet for fans attending the big 3-day-fan-convention {Degrassi Palooza} back in 2019. Here's the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/naSlhISvYs-qqKMsi=mRIOjuU5JJz4ZW8t

@@campbellmays9900 STILL??? 😳 People are still asking the SAME question to Michelle (& Stacie "Caitlin" Mistysyn) 37 years after they shot that episode??? I've asked Michelle many times over the decades and she always gives the same answer: "Only Ms Avery knows - and she ain't talkin'." 🤔 BTW: "Ms Avery" has a Fan Page on Facebook. You can find a lot more info there. Cheers, GN

@@campbellmays9900 I think you missed the point of the final line in "Rumour Has It" (which got the show banned in the U.K. & "flagged" in "The Bible Belt"). The whole reason for Ms Avery's line was to point out that it didn't make any difference if Avery was gay or not. Her sexual preference (or that of any ANY teacher's - male or female) had NOTHING to do with her skills as a Teacher. Either way, Caitlin could see - Avery was a Great Teacher. And that was ALL that mattered. That ep helped a LOT of young teens come to terms with their own sexuality - whether they were gay or straight. So, Michelle's response to "THE QUESTION" is deliberately vague to help those on BOTH SIDES of the equation. And just for the record - "Only Ms Avery knows - and she ain't talkin'" - is the SAME answer I GET when I ask Michelle "THE QUESTION." And I'm FINE with that. Discussion CLOSED. Cheers, GN

no prob - I just wanted to hear from someone close to the source,as it were. Nice channel,by the way.@@fearwidge

Hey there. Thanks for taking the time to comment. Pietenpol AirCampers, designed in 1929, originally had converted Ford Model A auto engines in them., and there are still quite a few that continue to use those. Michelle Goodeve's Piet has a "modern" 1946 Continental A65hp Aircraft motor up front, which she's had overhauled twice in the 44 years she's owned it. For various reasons, Piets & VW engines are not a good combo, but air-cooled Corvairs are! But Continentals (65 - 100 hp versions) are the most popular. As for their "fun" component... The open-cockpit view is great, but flying a Piet takes constant attention. As its flown from the rear seat, you can see NOTHING straight ahead on takeoff and landing. (You use peripheral vision to keep the bird equidistant from both edges of the runway/grass strip/field/whatever.) The 29' wing is perfectly straight (NO dihedral), which means the PILOT works hard keeping the plane level in any kind of turbulence. They also have a LOT of drag, so you descend much faster when the power is off (deliberately or unintentionally), and Piets can be quite "squirrelly" on landing But on calm, early-morning/evening flights, Piet flights are thoroughly enjoyable. Thanks & cheers, GN PS: Search our channel fearwidge for many more videos of Michelle flying her Piet, as well as Taylor E-2 Cubs, Gipsy Moths, Tiger Moths, and a rare 4-seat Thruxton Jackaroo (converted DH82A).

Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for taking the time to comment.

Thanks so much for the kind words. Hidden Niagara WAS going to be the pilot episode for a new series on the world's greatest Geologic wonders. BUT, we foolishly wrote it to feature Justin Trudeau (as he was a Geology teacher at the time) & Sophia Gregoire (who was already a TV Show Host). We had a Production Company read to shoot the series - around the world... However, Justin picked that moment to run for politics (eventually becoming P.M., like his dad). And now, he & Sophie have separated... So even when Justin eventually leaves Politics, I still won't be able to get my "dream team" as hosts. Sigh... And I can't do any more of these myself as I'm now 75 (and just the THOUGHT of "climbing ... back ... up" from the bottom of all those valleys & gorges makes me SHUDDER). Still, I DID get this one made, which is - I guess - better than nothing. Thanks again for taking the time to comment. All the best & cheers, GN
