Great natural wonders - tidal waves at Talbot Bay, Australia - David Attenborough - BBC

David Attenborough narrates this video clip about Talbot Bay, a rarely seen vision of the tide at one of the most wild and rugged parts of Australian shoreline. From BBC.

[@peterwulff469]

- yes, all the fast-flowing water is certainly an interesting natural phenomenon. However, it is also an opportunity to inexpensively install hydroelectric powerplants that can save our planet from climate changes and CO2 pollution. What is Australia waiting for???

Back in my sailor days we were docking in Broome near by there. We went onshore for about two hours. When we came on land it was through a steep ladder downwards. About these two hours later we came back to see our funnel just above the dock. 9 meters had the tide desended my ship through that time. And they told us, that the record was 13 meters. Facinating.

Quite the interesting video. And quite the spectacular tidal action. The Bay of Fundy between New Brunswick and Nova Scotia has the highest tides in the world with tidal differences of over 62 feet measured at Burncoat Cape. And, a higher rate of water flow occurs at mid-tide past Cape Spit than occurs in all the rivers of the world combined. But, the tidal action is slow and steady, and doesn't have the spectacular effect that this location in Australia does.

[@aussiefirie]

There is no tidal wave. There's not even a wave

[@BRollOffroad]

definite tidal wave, the problem is the term is kind of a misnomer. firstly because it's just a very shallow "wave," 1:12. but mostly because a bunch of dummies started calling tsunami's and any other big wave "tidal waves," despite them being much bigger and having nothing to do with the tide. tidal waves are more of a slow fill-and-drain in enclosed spaces or when land makes a pinch point to speed up water through it. the term has just been used incorrectly for years.

Lots of people have noted that this location would be great for a tidal generation plant of some kind. The problem is the distance to major cities of Darwin @ 600 km and Perth @ 1200 km. What people have overlooked is that there are large iron ore mining operations and other resource operations within 300 km that could benefit from the power plants output.

@Dave not to be a smarty but only about 2% of electricity is lost over thousands of miles of high transmission lines. Another 4% is lost through it's distribution once it reaches its destinations. So, I'm sure there is a cost for those miles of high transmission lines but we didn't create a source of electricity in the middle of Nevada (Hoover Dam) for the fun of it. In fact one article made the point of saying few of us live very close to power plants that are creating the electricity! It's been fun. I'm sure glad I live during the time of HD video because there are so many fantastic, unusual, breathtaking, etc., sites and cultures I would have never experienced!

[@abhijitoka]

Kay Bee I believe the uniqueness here are the two narrow apertures which are the connection to the sea. they make the in/ out flow trusty. while fundy bay seems awesome , it's mouth is pretty wide , so waves don't have a thrust.

[@baldieman64]

He doesn't need to travel that far. The river Severn in England has the third highest tidal range in the world, and only the bay of Fundy (north America) and Ungava bay ( Hudson straits) are bigger. The tidal range on the Severn can be as much as 15m (49ft), this combined to the 'funnel' shaped estuary causes the incoming tide to create great a bore. I'm pretty sure he's already done a documentary on the bay of Fundy though.

[@matthewmcpeek7324]

C J the very idea that you think because 98% of the world does something we need to do it to shows you how proud I am to be an American. Spoken like a true sheep. So because 98% of other people do one thing has absolutely no bearing on what myself, or the remainder of the 2% do. The idea that a majority of any kind should influence your own decisions or your own standards or in this case, measurements, is the very weak spineless reason that the world needs the United States. We aren't falling behind in anything. We are a strong country that is rebounding from any conomic downturn like the rest of the world, but we will remain leaders in everything. It's always been amusing to watch everybody else in the world complain about America because, well, they're not in America. I own 30 Acres, I hunt, I own firearms and a big diesel truck. I make more money than my need dictates. My to high school-aged Sons play football, real American football, and baseball is well. They are not weak, and they have no equal anywhere around the world. And they sure as hell don't care about 98% of something else. It's funny as an American to sit back and watch the world Panic about Trump. He's simply a strong leader the believes in the crazy idea that you should do what's best for your country before you do what's best for the world. It's amusing to see how people absolutely throw a fit at the idea that he's going to take care of the American taxpayer before he takes care of the 300-plus countries that we give some sort of foreign aid to. There is such a thing as an American exceptionalism. There is such a thing as the United States being a special place that you can't find anywhere else in the world. And speaking as a red-blooded American alpha male, the other 98% has no bearing on me. Hell, 98% of the rest of the world crawls around on all fours with a dildo shoved up its ass. I'll stick with my 2%. And you know what else is ironic? You know who else in the world has a very anti sheep and anti go with the crowd and a very ingrained sense of self accountability and ingenuity and exceptionalism? Russians. They are not sheep. They don't go with the crowd. And isn't it funny that the only two superpowers the world has ever seen are the ones who share the same traits?
