Eboulements Zinal mai 2016

Laves torrentielles et éboulements sur les plats de la Lé et le terrain de foot de Zinal, les 27 et 28 mai 2016.

[@soyounoat]

I have seen this video many times, and revisit often. The camera work is superb; as is the sound recording. Thank you for allowing the sounds to be heard, and not buried under some horrible "music" soundtrack. Other video makers could learn much from viewing your work. A+

[@ViKee010]

The flow of a flood of any kind has always fascinated me. Thank you for this beautiful footage. I’m like most on here and could watch it all day. 👍🏼🤍

[@louisbarbisan8471]

You kept your camera still, your close up was sooooo good, you've kept me in awe. Thank you so much to show that natural beauty with me.

[@mandatethis8024]

yes!!!! Took the comment right outta me mouth!

[@dentonthaves5216]

That's because he was using a tripod or some other camera support.

[@chrisurwin9310]

Great camera footage. No music or narration, just nature. Fantastic! Awesome how a large boulder can be reduced to wet concrete in seconds. That football pitch is now a parking lot when that dries.

[@judydelisle5290]

Thanks for telling me what I'm seeing 👍

[@marcusschwarz458]

Unglaubliche Bilder , durch die verschiedenen Einstellungen super ohne Wort erklärt! Grandios und danke für diesen Beitrag! 👍🏼

[@mig7287]

Thank you. I have watched 23 minutes but could watch for hours.

[@merryhunt9153]

"Zinal is a village in Switzerland, located in the municipality of Anniviers in the canton of Valais. " Nothing in my geology classes prepared me for the way the rock flows out of the mountain like a river. I thought big blocks would tumble down, then break into pieces when they hit the valley. Merci beaucoup for the video.

[@lifestationexpresslinda9425]

Great video. The birds singing along was beautiful!

[@kspen6110]

How crazy to see this beautiful black rock fall near regular ol waterfalls. And to watch the rocks liquefy when in motion is amazing. I love mountains and this scenery is breathtaking. Thank you for sharing.

[@delskioffskinov]

Camera work was excellent watched every second of it mesmerised!

[@wendellmacscience3633]

Wow! Excellent video! Both your camera work and the forces of nature leave me humbled.

[@Eigil_Skovgaard]

Your video is a geological pearl. Thank you for this rare experience - it is at least where I live. Out earth is fantastic. Hope your side of the valley is less active.

[@noraleestone2859]

Thank you for the long shots. It made the whole thing so much more understandable. :)

[@johnmartlew5897]

Beautifully composed. Some images were like abstract paintings.

[@shirleys2295]

mesmerizing, is the land still falling, if so can you show more. for sure up farther so we can see where it is coming from, and what is causing it.

[@parajacks4]

Melting ice

[@Blathnaid.-.]

Hello, same opinion as Louis Barbisan . You kept the camera still and then the focus... amazing. Thx for sharing a great moment of nature with us, but .... stay save and healthy, as well with nature or the virus. Regards Blathnaid

[@Woody615]

Great video. Physical geographer here, so I really enjoyed this. At 17:10, you zoom in on that chunk of glacier that has broken away but not yet fallen. Can you imagine if you had filmed that piece crashing down? Wow. That would have been spectacular.

[@tippyc2]

15:57 RIP tree, you fought valiantly

[@amandablevins6809]

Amazing how small they look (like little twigs)

[@siddupuy5666]

Just Beautiful. Thanks for capturing for the world to see.

[@gloriawalker3993]

There’s no higher view, so we don’t know where it is all coming from. Absolutely amazing filming.

Its a rac between plate tectonics pushing up rock and Mother Natures winds, snow and rain taking them done. Great camera work, thanks!

[@bigbenlorax]

Holy heck. I sat with my mouth open for most of this. The size of the boulder at 13:24 is immense!

[@PhilJonesIII]

Am I the only one mesmerized by the sounds it's generating?

[@saltydog8244]

AWESOMELY NATURAL NATURE. Thank you for sharing. 👌

[@kenrushing7945]

Mother nature is beautiful. Pushing those mountains up, while she erodes them away.

[@deborahlovrich1718]

Beautiful, could watch this for hours, thank you

[@messifetalain1286]

Enfin une vidéo de qualité et bien expliquée

[@micheldeuzelle8255]

Bien expliquée ?...

[@johnrflinn]

I love the different points of view that you provided.

[@jeffbransky6499]

It all looked so dry at first. Later it looked like water was breaking tons of material loose. What this triggered by snowmelt?

[@Astrofish226]

Best mass wasting footage ever. Excellent HD and you just let it go and go. Perfect.

[@noraleestone2859]

The power of water! Unbelievable! Thanks for posting this. :)

I could watch this for Decades ❤️👊😀my mother’s mother’s mother breathing her ever living might moving and flexing herself breathing alive Love you Mother Earth. 😊

[@janegilmore102]

A beautiful mountain turning itself into a beautiful rock. Mother Nature is making a tunnel for u guys lol I can hear the convo in the white car “ dad hurry up I’ll be late for footy” Father “ I can’t see it son” What a great video I have shared this to my Mother Nature loving sisters.

[@veraluciadasilva5002]

can someone from the channel explain to me what this phenomenon is?

[@catclark9488]

Brilliant video but would loved you to have panned up occasionally so the source of the fall could be seen as well.

[@robertofrank5163]

He did. Just check around 17:20 or take a look at this coordinates in Google Earth 46°07'10.99" N 7°37'38.31" O

[@patriciadonovan9778]

Compelling and amazing. Thanks!

[@nyrockchicxx]

Great camera work. Nice & steady.

[@stefanmargraf7878]

Incredible. How catastrophic fast a talus build up mountain becomes more and more flat land. I thought that takes 100dred of years. Time to reconsider building villages on a talus like Locarno.

[@viviche4364]

love the view and the sound!

[@cmwHisArtist]

I love when something is huge, terrifying and exciting, and no one gets hurt. Excellent.

[@huberthoudroy5661]

Cette vidéo est fascinante. On voit les paraboles des trajectoires de chute s'allonger ou se raccourcir en fonction de la vitesse horizontale des mobiles (eau, boue, blocs rocheux) au point où ils franchissent le rebord d'un à-pic. Quand les paraboles s'allongent, au lieu de chuter le long de la paroi d'une cascade, les mobiles enchaînent une cascade de cascades en une seule longue parabole. Ceci qui permet une augmentation de la vitesse, d'où des chocs inélastiques très violents, provoquant des explosions rocheuses. Puis l'irrégularité du débit en amont provoque un raccourcissement des paraboles, voire un tarrissement du débit. Sauf que les bruits témoignent qu'il se prépare toujours quelque chose en amont du versant, hors champ de la caméra. Là-haut, il doit y avoir des laves torrentielles, derrière des fronts rocheux qui les morcellent. Dès qu'une lave torrentielle bascule dans l'à-pic, le front rocheux, plus compact que la boue et que l'eau, tombe plus vite dans l'air que la boue et que l'eau. Dans le champ de la caméra, on voit un amas mobile de blocs rocheux encastrés se projeter sur une dalle rocheuse, certains blocs rebondissant pendant que d'autres explosent sous la violence du choc. Pendant les Grandes Glaciations, quand la vallée était remplie de glace, l'eau, la boue et les rochers étaient beaucoup plus confinés dans leur chute, du fait de la glace. Mais les chocs des rochers sur la glace entraînaient une partie de celle-ci dans leur chute. Beaucoup de blocs rocheux restaient coincés dans leur chute, formant une moraine latérale sur toute la hauteur de la falaise. Au cours de son avancée, l'ancien glacier de Zinal frottait ces blocs contre la paroi rocheuse, délogeant d'autre blocs, élargissant l'auge glaciaire. Parfois, de très gros blocs pouvaient être délogés puis emportés. On voit très bien, dans la falaise actuelle, une niche d'arrachement très concave, comme si des eaux souterraines et sous-glaciaires avaient contribué à expulser de la falaise un bloc-tiroir. Un bloc-tiroir est un bloc rocheux situé dans une falaise rocheuse diaclasée, derrière la façade de laquelle se cache un pseudo-karst (cheminée interne), du fait de l'ouverture de diaclases verticales profondes. L'idée de bloc-tiroir est puisée dans l'oeuvre de Salvador Dali intitulée «La Vénus aux tiroirs» (1936). Un bloc-tiroir dépasse de la surface moyennée de la falaise. La pression de la glace et de l'eau dans une cheminée interne peut déloger un bloc rocheux d'une paroi d'auge voisine et générer un bloc-tiroir.

Please any one can tell me what the black substance is? looks not just rock into powder, also ended up in liquid form or lava running down the slope.

[@arnoud3986]

I think it's exactly that, rock smashing into rock at incredible forces. Dirt, debris, rock...it vaporizes into what seems to be black dust. The liquid cement parts remain brownish...

[@salamon1080]

Those Mountain Goats didn't stand a chance in that one shot. (I think that's what there were, hard to tell from so far away) Great video!!

Possibly one of the coolest things I have ever seen. It was like watching the earth being made. Water is so cool.

Where is this? Is this an annual event? Whatever and wherever it's awesome. Thank you for posting.

Look left almost out of the frame. Curious that the clear waterfall just one crevasse over is completely unaffected...

[@thomasc707]

I could watch this stuff for millions of years.

[@user-ly5df1cs8n]

It's like this every year. When the weather starts to warm, right?

[@stevemorris6855]

Asking as a layman, how often would that happen? Is that years of build up giving way , an annual event or totally random? Really mesmerising.

[@kspen6110]

Judging by the mound at the bottom I assume this happens several times a year at least. Absolutely beautiful.

Think this is melt water from the snow on the higher elevations. Spectacular scenes though. Mother nature doing her thing

[@englishruraldoggynerd]

Rock is capable of flowing like water, there are some great videos of ilgrabben I think, where they have built channels downhill just to contain these rock flows. At 3.20 you can see a waterfall in the distance, to the far left. This looks like scree fields caused by the frost thaw cycle which is how mountains eventually disappear and we get rocky deposits underground. Funny to think that, if you’re on a geologically stable continent and it’s not river gravel you are seeing it could well have started out as a mountain, then this.... to underneath your house! Geology is amazing.

[@swithinbarclay4797]

@@englishruraldoggynerd : Hello, much of this looks like wet flowing concrete. If ever, this glacier at the top stops its "dry", landlocked "calving", I wonder if the sediments in the talus/scree cone will "set-up", and "cure", just like concrete poured and molded, for our myriad human construction projects? Could that stuff cure just as hard, too?
