I live nearby, and the higher starred bores are spectacular. To see surfers coming up the river is a rather surreal phenomenon. One of the wonders of our World.
I recall seeing a tidal bore on the River Trent at Gainsborough when I was a teenager. Awesome to see, it sounded like an express train going through.
This features my dear late cousin Gordon's former home. As a child I too remember watching the Bore there, and also further down the road at the then 'Bird in Hand' pub, which was renamed ' The Severn Bore' - there's witty!
On the 2nd site you listed , I read everything I wanted to know . Appreciate it .
Thanks for the link in the description. Great to learn something new. I never heard of these kind of waves before. If I get to UK I'd rather go and see this than palaces, Towers, Cathedrals and bells.
This happens all over the world not just in the UK
Look up "tidal bore on the amazon"
Nova Scotia and Canada have them too
The one on the amazon has crocodiles, snakes, piranhas, parasites and tropical diseases but yet they surf it.
You sound like a "bore",yak! yak! yak!
I would imagine it will be more spectacular where the river narrows? It will speed up and highten the wave! I can see why surfers and canoeists love to ride the bore! They call it the Party Wave!!
Just amazing, the natural world in its full glory 👍
Thanks for the comment Mark. Unfortunately 2021 does not look to be a particularly good year for bore-spotting with only THREE star bores predicted at best (three in March, four in April and one in November).
@@TonyMoronie1
It may not be a good year for bore spotting, but the natural world is fantastic
everything in the freaking world, Is natural.
carry on
@@TheShootistdon't be a fool, not everything, not now
Very interesting, learned something new, Thanks for creating.
BORE = NATURAL SURGE WAVE IN FUNNEL SHAPED RIVER ESTUARY
Thanks for sharing the video and the educational links.
Used to do Elvering around there after the bore had passed. That was when the licence cost around £10 and there were plenty of elvers
So exciting.
1 hour later the best fishing ever
Thank you so much for making this video I live near there and am watching it tonight 😁🙃
I would LOVE to Kayak this water.
Very impressive.
Guessing that wasn’t an alligator floating along in the water at the beginning… Guess I’ve spent too much time in Florida!
NO, it wasn't an alligator - not even one which had escaped from a zoo!! Unlike Florida the UK doesn't have alligators in the wild. It was a floating log of wood being carried downstream by the current. After the bore had passed the same log of wood was carried back upstream along with all the other floating debris.
That crocodile at the start has no idea what's about to hit him.?!
I wondered if it might be boring. I wasn't disappointed.
I live in Iowa, in the Heartland of America. Iowa has the Missouri River as the Western Border and the Mississippi River as the Eastern. I have seen "bores" going downstream during floods, but we do not have upstream bores. This is very interesting to me for that reason. Thank you.
too many dams on the mississippi for tidal bores to go north of Baton Rouge Louisiana
It's not a bore if it's going downstream, it's just rising levels. A bore is defined as going upstream due to tidal causes.
We have something very similar on the river ouse in Yorkshire known as the ouse eiger think it happens on spring tides
Is that salt water coming up stream? Wow that’s amazing that’s the first time I’ve ever heard of this. Where is it’s location?
YES it is salt water flowing upstream from the Bristol Channel. (The Bristol Channel is a major inlet in the island of Great Britain, separating South Wales from Devon and Somerset in South West England. It extends from the lower estuary of the River Severn to the North Atlantic Ocean.) I filmed the bore from the river bank adjoining the A48 road at Minsterworth. To get a map of this location enter a search for "Minsterworth Church, Gloucestershire" into Google Maps. From Minsterworth the bore continues upstream to Gloucester and then on to Maisemore a few miles farther north.
There are two web-sites listed in the information section below the video picture which give more information on the bore plus predicted times and ratings for the current year.
For lack of knowledge I thought the tide in the Bay of Fundy was the only one. Live and learn.
There are bores on the Amazon. Some rivers in SE Asia have huge ones.
Turnagain Arm of the Cook Inlet near Anchorage Alaska has some substantial bores. It has a tide swing just behind that of the Bay of Fundy
No clue what's happening here but damn it looks sweet!
The Tsevern Tsunami.
Wow!
This is like a Kiddy's Pool compared to the ones in Nova Scotia :)
Maybe so - but I only live a couple of miles from the river bank and the Severn Bore is good enough for me!!! You may be aware that China has some VERY large river estuaries and there are VERY large bores on some of them ......

It's amazing loud
am I the only Texan that was waiting for some wild pigs to cross this river?
We have wild boar near here in the Forest of Dean -but I don't think they roam as far as Minsterworth ....,,

Powerful stuff! I wonder if anyone has ever surfed or boated one of these? It would be a long effortless ride it seems. Thanks for sharing!
If you want evidence that the Severn Bore can be "surfed" have a look at the following video. (It's got a lot more views than mine!!!).

@@TonyMoronie1 Thank you! 😊
@@time2see192 Effortless ride? What a stupid comment. Do you even think?
@@mattmarzula Woah. It's gotta suck to be you dude. 😅
Surf is waaay up 🤙
That's just boring!
My great grandfather came from Elmore a short distance from Espey
I think you mean EPNEY!!!! (Search Google Maps for "The Anchor Inn, Epney). Epney is on the opposite side of the river from Minsterworth.
Looks like a no-wake zone!
The moon must get thirsty and wants water.
Now that's a regular phenomena!

Amazing. How often does this happen & is it predicted?
Information from WIKIPEDIA: The largest bores occur around the times of the equinoxes but smaller ones can be seen throughout the year. There are about 260 bores in each year occurring twice a day on 130 days. Because the bores are associated with the phases of the moon, one occurs between 7 a.m. and noon on bore days, and the other between 7 p.m. and midnight GMT, with the largest bores occurring between 9 and 11 in both the morning and evening. Maximum bores occur between one and three days after new and full moons, and smaller ones on the days that precede and follow the maxima.
There are two web-sites listed in the information section below the video picture which give more information on the bore plus predicted times and ratings for the current year.
Shame no one surfed it. I’ve seen it a few times
Very impressive. What makes this happen? Not just the normal tide, I presume.
Thanks for the compliment!! You will find an explanation as to why the Severn Bore occurs on the Home pages of the two web-sites listed in the notes below the video.
@@TonyMoronie1 thanks for the tip. I was so impresses I even did not notice the links. Oh and by the way, TH-cam's algorithms are funny. I once listened to "Ferry cross the Merseay" by Gerry and the Pacemakers here on YT. Then got a suggestion about the tidal bore on the River Mersey. Since I was curious and watched, I also got the suggestion to watch your own video on the tidal bore on the Severn. Pop music brings you everywhere :-)
@@antoinebesnehard Hi again Antoine. Unfortunately there is no "Ferry Across The Severn" song to lead more viewers to my Bore video by accident!! I have three other Bore videos on my channel - two from 2019 and one from 2020. If you watch them all you will see that every one is different because of different weather conditions and level of water in the river.
Stupid me, i first thought it was the Severn River in Annapolis Maryland, USA. A quick google search set me straight.
It sounds like a number of express trains.
Pardon my ignorance, but what exactly is it ? A rouge wave from the sea ?.
For more info on the bore click on "...more" below the video and this gives links to two web-sites.
It's sort of like a wave.
No doubt about it. It was a bore.
Thank you. Is erosion of the banks a problem?
As with all moving water the natural flow of the River Severn downstream does erode the banks. Therefore, the bore and the salt water which follows it upstream will do likewise. However, the process is slow and so does not cause any problems.
@@TonyMoronie1 Thanks, Tony. That puts the question to bed I don't think we have any bores here in Australia, except in parliament.
What water sources feed a river of that size ?
Try a Google search on: "Source of the River Severn". This will inform you that "The source of the River Severn starts in the Cambrian Mountains of mid-Wales."
@@TonyMoronie1 Thank you from California!
Nature is amazing if people would take the time to pay attention
Bit highhanded of you. Why are you claiming people don't take the time to pay attention when we're here watching a video about it? Moron.
The Great Ouse at Downham market is more impressive. Just no estuary as such before Kings Lynn.
are your certain that isn't the bore crocodile
Where are your beaver? They’d love to play.
Sooo, that would be brackish water...fresh and salt mixed?
YES. Salt water from the Bristol Channel (so indirectly from the Atlantic Ocean) makes its way up the river on the incoming tide. For more info on the bore click on "...more" below the video and this gives links to two web-sites.
Omg the horror of the bore
Nice to see it without any surfers on it.
...and not one longboard?
What causes that? The tide?
For more info on the bore click on "...more" below the video and this gives links to two web-sites.
Unfortunately today 2021 , this is a tidal wave of Raw SEWAGE.
I think you will find that it is sea water being forced up a narrowing inlet formed by the Bristol Channel getting smaller and small and smaller. The water is muddy, and saline but not too much in the way of sewage. Look up Gloucester U.K. on the map and you can see how the moon forms tides up this estuary.
This is caused when the giant further up flushes his toilet.
Does anybody ever surf it?
If you want evidence that the Severn Bore can be "surfed" have a look at the following video. (It's got a lot more views than mine!!!).

Etonnant ce mascaret qui remonte cette rivière qui semble si paisible...
Stronketti e plinshini alla subato truffi.
Is it the Moon that causes this?
YES. High and low tides are caused by the moon. The moon's gravitational pull generates something called the tidal force. The tidal force causes Earth - and its water - to bulge out on the side closest to the moon and the side farthest from the moon.
The Severn Bore is caused by the tide from the Atlantic Ocean entering the Bristol Channel and forcing its way into the Severn Estuary, filtering into a narrow channel and causing the water to rise by anything up to 15 metres.
@@TonyMoronie1 Thank you for the explanation :) that was my theory too. Good to get it confirmed. Fascinating how the universe works.
what... no border collies riding five foot twin skeg wave boards...?
oh well...!
thks for the upload
🙂
What's this? A fascinating, harmless natural phenomenon as old as time itself? Surely someone will want all the world's tidal bores banned for being culturally insensitive and offensive to... er... dry things. Deserts. Camels. Paper towels. 🙄
Triggered me, that's for sure. 😡
Cute persecution complex, where'd you get it?
@@eritain probably from those college educated snowflakes American universities are churning out.
I apologize for any perceived microaggressions.
I didn't mean to microaggress, macro snarky is what my aim is.
Settle down there little Elli, Try and enjoy a video without inserting low brow personal politics. You’re gonna be ok.
Boooo
I guess they don't surf there.
Oh YES they do ......
