All in one. Lave torrentielle lente, coulée de boue avec formation de vagues, coulées hyperconcentrées, lave torrentielle rapide et enlèvement de blocs de 20 à 40 Tonnes mal placés...Murgänge / hyperkonzentrierter Strom, Debris flow/hyperconcentrate flow

I started watching these videos a few days ago and I always find that one boulder that I watch and I'm rooting for it to hold its position for as long as possible, but then comes another wave of rocks and off it goes. It's amazing how fast 10 - 15 minutes can go by while watching these videos.

Pebble on the beach, "I was once a mountain!" Awesome work. Subscribed. Thanks.

[@maryday7602]

These flows throw the massive blocks of stone around so easily! The power of gravity on water is terrifying! Thank you so much for sharing these epic events. Mother Earth is so amazing.

[@bluceree7312]

When I was a young lad we used to hike every week in dried up river beds with huge boulders like these in the video. Every year the path will be different because everything moves, even huge boulders. I never witnessed any flash floods or mud slides, only the aftermath, and always wondered how can water move a bus-sized huge rock like this - now I know. Thanks.

[@sandrahealey6385]

Wow! Frightening and majestic!! Thanks for sharing, in Australia we don't see this sort of thing our mountains are truly ancient, awe inspiring but not so messy 😍 Rain in the far north of the country sends water to the dry inland rivers and lakes, dry riverbeds have killed many happy campers over the years. Know your country. Really enjoyed your educational and awesome work! Cheers from Tasmania 👍🥂😍

Always respect the power of flowing water ... Worked as a hydrometric surveys technologist for 37 1/2 years with the Water Survey of Canada (an agency of Environment Canada) measuring water level and flow (discharge) in Ontario, Canada. There is no way I would be metering in this stream !!!

Being able to hear all the sounds makes this oddly satisfying to watch, especially the part with mudflows occurring in pulses.

Immer wieder ein spannendes Naturschauspiel dieser Illgraben

[@aquachonk]

Great video! There are volcanic basalt boulders a story tall on the Oregon coast that get moved by the king tides every year. Basalt is some of the densest rock, even a small one the size of your head is extremely difficult to lift. A single large wave can move one the size of a UPS delivery truck. You can feel the force of normal-sized waves sending tremors through the rock if you're standing on it. People don't realize how much energy is in water.

[@noraleestone2859]

OMG - I just LOVE your videos, especially since you've been personalizing some of the boulders. Just awesome power of the flow, no matter which kind. Thank you from Canada.

It is quite eerie to see 30 ton rocks pushed along like the winds pushes a paper cup down the road.

@@deangregoric4735 If you go by their calculations at 6:51 it would be between 3 and 4 tons depending on the type of rock. I think they added a 0 by mistake.

@@katanyajason3316 their hole metrics are heavily flawed 1.8m tall? Thats a bit over an average human adult that rock is probably around 30-40cm tall max I seen people standing in front of that type of check dam and they are as tall as that 45% angle V formation.

[@katanyajason3316]

@@deangregoric4735 Yes, well spotted

[@Hanjotruper]

If their measurements would be acurate the stone would have a volumen of nearly 16m³ (2,5x3,5x1,8) 1m³ of water = 1000L = 1000kg = 1t now stone is denser than water ,by 2-3 times, so it could be 30 metric tons. BUT i do agree that their measurements seem way off.

[@ryderhook]

Thanks for the great video. I think it's great that you showed the size and weight of the rocks. In such videos it is always difficult to get a size comparison, especially with nature shots. I still remember that I always thought that an ocean sunfish was about 20-30 cm in diameter, until a diver swam next to one in a documentary. 1.8 - 3.3 m in diameter and up to 2.5 t in weight. That was an eye opener.

[@GavCritchley]

Watching this again. It is a geologists heaven. So much to think about. Those boulders must be igneous or metamorphic (granite or gneiss I'm guessing?), so pretty old, but they are coming from that canyon up the valley and are being held in the really loose formation rock (or are there granite/gneiss intrusions, or underlying layers?). So that upper landscape must be super young? Then you have this incredibly dynamic erosion mechanism, that I was taught about but never really believed. When you get the high density mud those boulders just float along so easily. Then when the flows stop you get this kind of clastic (??) layer (I've forgotten the proper term). When that dries it must be pretty hard. And I saw one of the other videos where this feeds into the main river and the sedimentary banks were really high, so that main river must get pretty constricted during high deposition periods. This is now on my bucket list to see!

The mountain must’ve had Taco Bell last night

[@betotrono]

Mountains don't eat food and I'm pretty sure the adjacent village of Chandolin, a small village of just 82 people, doesn't have a Taco Bell. Additionally, the amount of Taco Bell that would be needed to feed a mountain a sufficient amount to give it diarrhea would be simply not feasible. MAYBE if you were to feed it *all* the Taco Bell food that has ever been prepared by any Location since the inception of the chain, you'd have enough to give the mountain diarrhea, but even under those circumstances I seriously doubt it. I consider it much more likely that acute instances of heavy rainfall are causing flash floods comprised mostly of water and earth. Mountains don't even shit.

Difficut, about 50 000 m3, may be less... this year all the debris flow brough down about 150 000 m3 ? Please look at my new video « Illgraben - Where does all that material go ? » you see the rest of that deposit being dissolvate away in 10 hours....WSL does study all those questions...

[@wehvgirlpwr]

Where does this start and how does it always go into this channel?

[@Ryukai-san]

Look for 'Illhorn Switzerland' in Google Earth/Maps(satellite view). The massive landslide scarp is to it's north, (basically an entire mountain is slowly eroding away) and the channel that's been made to keep the debris flows away from the town below.

[@wehvgirlpwr]
