As an earth and space science teacher, this video hits so many vocabulary words and lessons taught throughout the school year and summarizes it into a lovely video. Great tool to help student learn about their own back yard and see how all of these processes add up what we have today. Great Job!
Alaska's Aleutian Islands extend far enough west that they're in the Eastern Hemisphere, making Alaska the northernmost, westernmost, and easternmost State
@@JuarezDerrick "Native Americans" includes native Mexicans, as Mexico is part of North America, and of the Americas in general for that matter. "Native United Statesians" would be a different story. 😄
4:30 mark... a point of fact. The Arbuckle Mts of southern Oklahoma are older than the Appalachians. They're so ancient and heavily eroded that even some people who live here don't realize these hills were once giant mountains.
Thank you very much from those of us who use feet, yards, miles, etc., and not kilometers ETC like me who were taught that in school. I am now 87 years old, I was born on January 3rd, 1937. 👵🐈⬛🐈⬛Me, Teo, and TwoTwo my cats!
California averages 10 tornadoes each year. They do occur occasionally, particularly in the Los Angeles Basin and Central Valley. Tornadic activity in California, to my understanding, is usually (but not always) associated with winter storms. As with most tornadoes, most of these are weak (EF0-EF1). With regard to strong (F2/EF2+) tornadoes, there are a few on record, including an F2 that struck Los Angeles in March 1983.
Nicely done and presented. Outstanding footages, excellent narration. My huuuuge like is all yours, free of charge. I learned all these facts at a small rural school in Belarus, of which I am pretty sure the majority of you have no clue, notwithstanding the fact that the country is in the geographical middle of Europe. 😊
According to this video, North America includes Canada, Mexico and the US + 21 other countries, yet, 95% of the video talks about Canada & the US. Completely omits so much of the rich diversity and ancient history of Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean. May as well rename the video to Canada & US facts.
At around 5:30, this video states that plate tectonics caused the Bering Land Bridge to sink below the sea 11,000 years ago. Actually, this submergence, which did occur roughly 11,000 years ago, I believe, was caused by the melting of the Ice Sheets that covered much of Canada and Europe, primarily, at the end of the latest Ice Age.
If you discover a new restaurant, it doesn't mean it wasn't there previously or that you're the first person to eat there, it just means it is new to you (in this case the Europeans of the day).
@@shonsadler3817 Not 100% sure what country you are referring to but technically he never set foot in any country in on this side of the Altantic. It in fact would have been impossible for anyone to set foot in the United States until after 1776.
@2:00 Columbus didn’t discover America. How can you discover something that isn’t lost? Plus the Vikings were in North America 500 years before Columbus.
5:40 mark.... it was a warming climate and sea level rise that separated Asia from Alaska, not tectonic forces. Eastern Siberia is part of North America's plate. Not 6 minutes in, and already 2 errors.
My husband is 43 and thought the dark spots on the moon were the reflections of the continents on earth ☠️ He went to one of the worst school systems in our area and I went to one of the best and it is quite obvious which school system actually cared about students getting a quality education and offering any help needed vs one that will just pass anyone just to get them out of there. My husband has ADHD and is dyslexic and can't learn in a normal school environment well. Their IEP program was pointless and just passed them if they showed up. Our school had an amazing program and I wasn't in it, but the people that were , got all the help and support they needed and actually got good grades . The school systems have just gotten worse over the years sadly. I fear for the future of this country being run by people who can't write in cursive or read a clock unless it is digital.
Oh my gosh--I can't believe this--but I agree with all three of you. We sound so cynical, but when I left high school I could read Latin, play the piano and name every capital city in the world. I understood orbital mechanics and the dynamics of evolution, the details of reproduction, importance of vaccinations and reacting safely to a natural disaster. My kids are stumped by all of that, and almost resent me talking about it. And, aarrghh!--they and their peers don't write in cursive, don't know a second language, play a musical instrument or hold a drivers' license. It's very depressing! Although somehow very helpful that other parents bemoan the same circumstances.
When I was a little kid, (I'm 76 now) there were "pen pals", which were other kids we exchanged letters with, like in Canada, Alaska, or England. It helped us to learn about other countries. I wonder if kids ever use "snail mail" anymore in a world with e-mail. Why would a kid go to the trouble of finding stationery, stamps, pens and all that, and create a "hard copy" to journey for days in the mail system across continents, when he can e-mail anyone in the world instantly. I guess pen pals have gone the way of the horse and buggy.😮
Why am I not surprised at the daughter who thinks Tennessee has a coastline!?? I find it perplexing that there are people who have zero interest in geography! And these idiots actually vote! I am FASCINATED by geography. I can draw a pretty accurate map of not only the United States but in fact most of the world! The only part I might be a little fuzzy about might be those countries around the Black and Caspian Seas. 😊
basically ignore everything after 47:12 as it has NOTHING to do with the natural features of any regions of North America. 'somebody' decided to insert some 'eco-friendly terminologies' and attack human impact on the Continent. but this was moderately counter-pointed with the non-specific mention (AND INCORRECT TIMELINES!) of conservation, reclamation, preservation, and education about ecological matters in North America.
6:22 The part about walking 2.4 miles in 15 minutes or less. That is a big old no, average person's walk speed is 3-4 miles per hour. I live almost exactly 2 miles from where I work & it takes me 45 minutes to walk there over very hilly terrain. If you were sprinting then perhaps it would be possible but you would have to be super fit for that to happen.
From about 47:15, the commentary is honest, well-reasoned and fair. I appreciate the realization that we must alter our course if we want to leave a responsibly stewarded continent to the Americans of 2054, and 2084, of 2124, 2224, 2324 or even 2424! (If you don't get that sentence, it's not important. I just mean let's live with respect for the future). I definitely want to be remembered as a generation who saw the delayed ill effects of careless technologies, wasteful economies and a cavalier attitude toward this world's fabulous but finite resources. And North Americans can be an example--from the Panama Canal to the Plain of Abraham, from the smiles of San Salvador to the club Blues of old-town St. Louis, from pyramids of Yucatan to the shores of Labrador--we could become the "beacon continent," the world's lighthouse for living sustainably, but prosperously. We citizens of Canada and the Caribbean Nations, of Central America and Mexico and of "El Norte" itself, the United States, have lived largely in peace, by living cooperatively, for over a century. If only we add "sustainably" to "cooperatively," we could lead a world refreshed and heartened by good will, one restored for good by willing hearts.
Many of you may have never heard these truths: Our heavenly Father allows for signs in the earth, heavens, and environmental upheavals to call His children home; the mind and heart are the soul's strength; your soul will spend an eternity somewhere; it is appointed to man once to die and then the judgment; there is no lasting hope in this world; Hope deferred makes the heart sick: but when the desire, Jesus comes, it is a tree of life. Whoso despises the WORD of God shall be destroyed: but he that fears the commandments (Exodus 20) shall be rewarded; The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do God's commandments: His praise and mercy endures for ever; and For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Jesus should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. Please choose life, while it is called today!
There’s a lot of confusion around the word “discovered.” In simple terms, to discover something is to find or see something for the first time. Whether or not it was the Vikings, Christopher Columbus, Amerigo Vespucci, or someone else who discovered it first will always be debated. To discover something does not nullify the fact that it did not exist before. It means that the subject had no prior knowledge of what they discovered. It does not negate the fact that there were, indeed, Indigenous and/or Native peoples inhabiting and thriving on their land.
You do know that Columbus never did get to America. He landed on the isle of Tortuga on north coast of Haiti. So, he really didn’t discover North American continent.
All of those islands are in NA. I hate Christopher as much as the next guy for being a raping, murderous slaver but the dude definitely stepped foot on North America. But yes he never visited the NA mainland, although he did on South America.
By *Cordillera" in the Canadian Rockies, I assume you are referring to the Rocky Mountains. The word "Cordillera" is usually used to name the same range in SOUTH America. In Mexico it is usually called "Sierra." 😊
This video is almost as challenging as my 8th grade Earth Science class. Not surprised in a society where the highest grossing movie of the year is about a Barbie doll.
Uhm, can you explain how Greenland is "northwest of the mainland" as stated somewhere near the 11:00 mark? Otherwise, some good information. Caught an error at around the 39:00 minute mark when the narrator describes the base of a Sequoia Tree as "5 meters, or 65 feet". Just a bit off. NOT trying to detract from the excellent work, just pointing out some issues. It sort of tests my knowledge of what I may THINK I know...
If and whenever the US education system returns to actually teaching the children properly. This video and others like it, should be made mandatory. It is amazing how many young adults are clueless of the topic of this program. Even political representatives are ignorant of this topic.
At 9:30, you state that the northern most spot of the mainland of North America is Cape Murchison. Please look at your map. Cape Murchison is on an island -- far north of the mainland.
It’s insulting that he said that the Niagara Falls was in the US. Everyone here knows that it splits the border AND the best half of the falls is on the Canadian side.
Did he keep saying carnivorous when he meant to say cuneiform?? or have I been lucky not to have eatn up by one of those trees.? had to come back and edit. I enjoyed this very much. Thank you for time you took and effort.
Would be intersting for new Documentry on this Channel how many Calderas are on the North American Continent and how likely are they to erupt in the Near Future +- 100 years. I know 5 of Them Long Valley, Yellowstone National Park, Novarupta, Lassen Peak, La Gratia.
FYI, for Niagara Falls, the American and Bridal Veil falls are on the American side of Niagara Falls (NY state). The Horseshoe Falls are on the Canadian side of Niagara Falls, Ontario.
Why did you not mention worlds tallest vertical cliff being in north america? Mount Thor in Baffin Island Canada. Lots of missing and important geological facts and not much mention of Mexican info. Canada also has a desert in the Okanagan region of British Columbia.
At 5:23, please check current theories on migration of human beings to North America. Your comment about "on foot" is no longer the predominant theory.
Yall some straight gangsters! Keep this s*** up love your videos!😁👍. Am i trippin or is the History channel logo on the bottom right.. good yall should be on the history channel.

Columbus never set foot in North America. That fact, and his brutality toward all of the indigenous people unfortunate enough to see him/be in his way, is reason enough not to name anything for him...much less an entire continent. 🤬
Ummmm…. The St. Francois Mountains, in southeast Missouri, are three times as old as the Appalachians. They are over 1.5 to 1.8 billion years old. The Appalachians are 65 million years old.
they are older than that the appalachians were formed during Pangea which was around 300,000,000 to 200,000,000 years ago during the end of the triassic start of the jurassic periods in fact the same rocks found in the appalachians can be found in england ,ireland ,and Scotland th-cam.com/video/WROQIdM8YW4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=IHf1_C9JSHr2acnj
This is an overall good video; however, you dropped the ball on fauna. Red, fallow and sitka deer are Eurasian species. North American species are whitetail and mule deer, as well as elk and moose (which you did mention). And I can't believe you almost completely ignored the largest feline predator, the mountain lion. Also, it seems to me that the video images you used as closeups of American bison were actually European wisent.
What did the Cheyenne call Devils Tower? Bear's Lodge The Cheyenne call Devils Tower "Bear's Lodge," "Bear's House," "Bear's Tipi," and "Bear Peak." The Cheyenne camped and hunted at Bear's Lodge in the winter and consider it a holy place.May 31, 2023

Using the Panama Canal for shipping does nothing to protect the United States or our allies. I would like to setup high speed rail from our Golf States to the ports of California and other points of industry where goods can be distributed throughout the country and other parts of the world from California.
He didn’t even come close to the modern US mainland, Columbus landed in the Caribbean and Central America. Which is funny how so many Americans rever him when he has nothing to do with American history. Guess when you have very little history, some people just try to look for heroes wherever they can.
"You people" need to stop being Semantiphobic. If I say, "I discovered a Chinese Restaurant downtown yesterday", it doesn't mean that I Constructed the building and Invented egg rolls or was the first person to ever eat Chinese food. Discover means to find something Unexpectedly. The discovery is on the part of the person doing the looking NOT on the object being found. So something can be discovered by more than one person. For example, just because I discovered you are an Idiot doesn't mean that Many People haven't discovered the same thing before. Imagine living in 2024 and not knowing the definition of Discover. Furthermore, even if you were correct, you are still wrong in This instance because the narrator specifically quantified the use of the word "discovered" by adding the context of European in the previous sentence. Sometimes being "That Person" doesn't make you as Cool as you think it does.
Kinda of a bummer how he mostly mentions the facts that are in Canada US and Mexico and barely talk about places like Greenland and the countries in Central America and the Caribbean smh. Like North America doesn’t just involve Canada and US.
37:55 no way bamboo grows normally in north america lol if it is here its on someone's private property or a nature preserve for animals that eat it like pandas
Yeah, in South Florida, groves of bamboo grow wild. Of course bamboo is NOT native to Florida. It is an invasive species, wiping out zillions of acres of native species 😮
North America has three species of 'Bamboo', that ARE NATIVE to North America! Go back to school, and study North America biology! You obviously don't know 'Bamboo'.
Correction; Wild Bamboo 'is' native to south Florida, go back to school and study Florida flora, something that you don't know anything about it! @@mickeyray3793
The story of America certainly did not start with Columbus, The Vikings, or even The so-called Native Americans, but rather the ones who came way before the "natives."
As an earth and space science teacher, this video hits so many vocabulary words and lessons taught throughout the school year and summarizes it into a lovely video. Great tool to help student learn about their own back yard and see how all of these processes add up what we have today. Great Job!

Alaska's Aleutian Islands extend far enough west that they're in the Eastern Hemisphere, making Alaska the northernmost, westernmost, and easternmost State
😂
North America was not unknown. The native American people were here!!
And Mexicans
Stop being neo-racist. How could they be native American before it was named America? They were Turtle Back Islanders.
@@JuarezDerrick "Native Americans" includes native Mexicans, as Mexico is part of North America, and of the Americas in general for that matter. "Native United Statesians" would be a different story. 😄
Unknown to the rest of the world. Try and keep up🙄
Yes and the native Americans were called VIKINGS
4:30 mark... a point of fact. The Arbuckle Mts of southern Oklahoma are older than the Appalachians. They're so ancient and heavily eroded that even some people who live here don't realize these hills were once giant mountains.
I truly love documentaries like this. Please don't ever stop making them ! ❤️🔥

no we know just lazy dumb ppl dont and dont care about ur age
right on 2904
I learned the 'old' measurements too. I'm also thankful I don't have to convert metric in my head lol 🇨🇦
Love the video but how do you do a whole segment on volcanos and not even mention Mt St Helens?
Excellent. Great information. And thankyou for giving meters and feet. No one else does that.
Beautiful video!!! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing, much appreciated 💖
Most tornadoes in the world are in the Midwest of the USA. I’m not aware of super strong tornadoes in California.
🌪 Exactly! Just look at the map of tornado alley and the NOAA EF5 history may for the US. www.spc.noaa.gov/faq/tornado/f5torns.html
Now that you mention it I've never heard about a tornado in California either.
California averages 10 tornadoes each year. They do occur occasionally, particularly in the Los Angeles Basin and Central Valley. Tornadic activity in California, to my understanding, is usually (but not always) associated with winter storms.

He is perfectly right, unlike your grammar and punctuation. 😮@@tylerlormand5644
End of the pleistocene era melt water caused the sea level to rise like 400 feet worldwide.
Why did you leave out the Pecan tree, in your list of trees. They cover a large area of the Southeast!!!
And with those trees, comes one of my favorites PECAN PIE 🥧
But they included, several times, the once dominant Chesnut tree, which was almost totally destroyed by an invasive disease.
Unknown to the Europeans, but it was totally inhabbited so Columbus didn't "discover" anything.
Facts. Makes you wonder what else they lie about , and teach in schools.
If you discover a new restaurant, it doesn't mean it wasn't there previously or that you're the first person to eat there, it just means it is new to you (in this case the Europeans of the day).

He discovered the lands to the west of Europe.

@2:00 Columbus didn’t discover America. How can you discover something that isn’t lost? Plus the Vikings were in North America 500 years before Columbus.

Fun fact- I’m just an idiot born in ‘64 and I knew most of that from regular schooling. My daughter, a college graduate, knows nothing about anything.
Same here. I’m another idiot born in ‘76 and my daughter graduated high school recently and thought Tennessee had a coastline

I hate to break it to you but even EF5 tornadoes only have wind speeds around 300 mph and not 800.
That number came from a Meet Arnold video
Thanks for letting people know that North America is not just the U.S.A.
Like it really matters.

And now we know all the "natives" we're migrants too with the help of DNA.
There are many "Americans" who haven't discovered Canada yet.
You do know that Columbus never did get to America. He landed on the isle of Tortuga on north coast of Haiti. So, he really didn’t discover North American continent.
Maybe I missed it but did he not mention one of the most common fauna in North America the trash panda 🦝.
First off Christopher Columbus didn't discover anything and never stepped on North America and didn't see it. I thought everyone knew this by now '
No we don't know that by now because most people are stuck on stupid. 😂

But yes he never visited the NA mainland, although he did on South America.

How can Cape Murchison be the most northern part of the mainland when its on Ellesmere island?

Yeah. That's a new word for me. In 75 years of learning about my home continent I have never heard that term until this video.

At 9:30, you state that the northern most spot of the mainland of North America is Cape Murchison.
Please look at your map. Cape Murchison is on an island -- far north of the mainland.
It’s insulting that he said that the Niagara Falls was in the US. Everyone here knows that it splits the border AND the best half of the falls is on the Canadian side.
@Silence_between_waves ...speaking of nitpicking...insulted vs offended?
This whole video is biased
Depends on your definition of BEST, my Canadian friend 😉. This Grand Island, NY resident does happen to agree with you, BTW….
Did he keep saying carnivorous when he meant to say cuneiform?? or have I been lucky not to have eatn up by one of those trees.? had to come back and edit. I enjoyed this very much. Thank you for time you took and effort.

Would be intersting for new Documentry on this Channel how many Calderas are on the North American Continent and how likely are they to erupt in the Near Future +- 100 years. I know 5 of Them Long Valley, Yellowstone National Park, Novarupta, Lassen Peak, La Gratia.
I am just astonished that i am from North America❤️how lucky i am
You didn't mention the mega caldera located in El Salvador
[RE: Devils Tower]
"Particularly impressionable people." Hahahaha, that's one way of putting it.
I’m just here to listen his soothing voice so I can sleep.
FYI, for Niagara Falls, the American and Bridal Veil falls are on the American side of Niagara Falls (NY state). The Horseshoe Falls are on the Canadian side of Niagara Falls, Ontario.
Why did you not mention worlds tallest vertical cliff being in north america? Mount Thor in Baffin Island Canada. Lots of missing and important geological facts and not much mention of Mexican info. Canada also has a desert in the Okanagan region of British Columbia.
it’s a 50 minute video if you want to cover every possible geological facts the video would be like 4 hours
Thanks
I loved how tornadoes destroyed so many square miles and formed coastal bars...
I thought the highest temperature was just outside Carlsbad, in Burnt Scrotum New Mexico
At 5:23, please check current theories on migration of human beings to North America.
Your comment about "on foot" is no longer the predominant theory.
Yall some straight gangsters! Keep this s*** up love your videos!😁👍. Am i trippin or is the History channel logo on the bottom right.. good yall should be on the history channel.
Straight gangsters?
Many of you may have never heard these truths:
Our heavenly Father allows for signs in the earth, heavens, and environmental upheavals to call His children home; the mind and heart are the soul's strength; your soul will spend an eternity somewhere; it is appointed to man once to die and then the judgment; there is no lasting hope in this world; Hope deferred makes the heart
sick: but when the desire, Jesus comes, it is a tree of life. Whoso despises the WORD of God shall be destroyed: but he that fears the commandments (Exodus 20) shall be rewarded; The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that
do God's commandments: His praise and mercy endures for ever; and For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that
whosoever believes in Jesus should not perish,
but have everlasting life. For God sent not His
Son into the world to condemn the world; but
that the world through him might be saved. Please choose life, while it is called today!
Corpus species, aka nutria, remind me so much of a diminutive version of capybara.
The word "Extinct" not overly used here.
The highest tornado wind speed recorded on earth is 301 mph, +/- 20. I'd hate to see a supersonic 800 mph tornado 😂. Where did you check that fact?
Columbus never set foot in North America. That fact, and his brutality toward all of the indigenous people unfortunate enough to see him/be in his way, is reason enough not to name anything for him...much less an entire continent. 🤬
I will always teach and call Mt. McKinley it's real name, Mt. McKinley.
50:07 The real name is Denali. What our people called it. Not McKinley just because some white man saw it for the first time.
@user-yh9dd3th1z Before i die, i will ensure that all signs and acknowledgments are corrected to Mt. McKinley.
Now I'm pining for the fjords!
This video has Way to many ads!! I've had enough and not finishing it. Hell I already know whats being said
gtf then if u too dumb to download a ad blocker
If you watch in a browser, get an ad blocker like UBlock origin and never watch another ad on YT again.
Maybe not now, but I think it’s on point ha ha he did discover North America.🤷♂️
5:50 Sarah Palin paid for this bit😂
Ummmm…. The St. Francois Mountains, in southeast Missouri, are three times as old as the Appalachians. They are over 1.5 to 1.8 billion years old. The Appalachians are 65 million years old.
they are older than that the appalachians were formed during Pangea which was around 300,000,000 to 200,000,000 years ago during the end of the triassic start of the jurassic periods in fact the same rocks found in the appalachians can be found in england ,ireland ,and Scotland th-cam.com/video/WROQIdM8YW4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=IHf1_C9JSHr2acnj

The Devil's Tower is in the movie Close Encounters of the Thrid kind.
Scotland shares the Appalachian mountains
This is an overall good video; however, you dropped the ball on fauna. Red, fallow and sitka deer are Eurasian species. North American species are whitetail and mule deer, as well as elk and moose (which you did mention). And I can't believe you almost completely ignored the largest feline predator, the mountain lion. Also, it seems to me that the video images you used as closeups of American bison were actually European wisent.
He also failed to mention a lot of information about the Caribbean and Central America as if it’s not part of North America
Could you harvest the energy at Yellowstone in order to mitigate an eruption?
Sorry but devils tower use to be a tree . i just want to know who cut it down .
Tom Bombadil....
Paul Bunion ?
What did the Cheyenne call Devils Tower?
Bear's Lodge
The Cheyenne call Devils Tower "Bear's Lodge," "Bear's House," "Bear's Tipi," and "Bear Peak." The Cheyenne camped and hunted at Bear's Lodge in the winter and consider it a holy place.May 31, 2023

I was always taught that the Missouri was the longest river
"CONTEXT: CLIMATE CHANGES " thanks youtube
The grand canyon was not carved out by a river. The canyon and most of the landscape were gouged out and carved out by the ice age and ice sheets.
There was people living here aready it was known
Appalachians are in Scotland too.
Using the Panama Canal for shipping does nothing to protect the United States or our allies. I would like to setup high speed rail from our Golf States to the ports of California and other points of industry where goods can be distributed throughout the country and other parts of the world from California.
Gulf states?
WELL Done!😍
well I’m pretty sure that Christofer Columbus DID NOT discover America. Infact I don’t believe he ever even touched land here in America.
He didn’t even come close to the modern US mainland, Columbus landed in the Caribbean and Central America. Which is funny how so many Americans rever him when he has nothing to do with American history. Guess when you have very little history, some people just try to look for heroes wherever they can.
@@darthjarjar5309John Cabot is the real never-appreciate hero that people claim Columbus to be.
Asking for support and approval before viewing the product isn't best business practice.
Niagara Falls in the USA..sorry you lost me there. Horseshoe Falls is in Canada bud; u guys are too "USA-centric" for my taste
then gtf from round here then
More like top US-Canada centric, 95% of the video features Canada & the US.
Yes they did mention that it is in both countries
Okay, you lost me on the discovery of America. Imagine living in 2024 and not knowing America was inhabited long before Christopher or Americas .
"You people" need to stop being Semantiphobic. If I say, "I discovered a Chinese Restaurant downtown yesterday", it doesn't mean that I Constructed the building and Invented egg rolls or was the first person to ever eat Chinese food.
Discover means to find something Unexpectedly. The discovery is on the part of the person doing the looking NOT on the object being found. So something can be discovered by more than one person.
For example, just because I discovered you are an Idiot doesn't mean that Many People haven't discovered the same thing before. Imagine living in 2024 and not knowing the definition of Discover.
Furthermore, even if you were correct, you are still wrong in This instance because the narrator specifically quantified the use of the word "discovered" by adding the context of European in the previous sentence.
Sometimes being "That Person" doesn't make you as Cool as you think it does.
imagine somebody come to ur home tells u get out and takes over.....then give u cuppord under the stairs ........fuk the frointers
Actually Greenland belongs to Denmark from the start. But geologically it is part of NA, so eko, political it is European.
Kinda of a bummer how he mostly mentions the facts that are in Canada US and Mexico and barely talk about places like Greenland and the countries in Central America and the Caribbean smh. Like North America doesn’t just involve Canada and US.
Wouldn't it have been unknown to anyone who wasn't here, though?
Just answering the title question: its an electrical phenomenon. We live in an Electric Universe. Probably has something to do with faults?
37:55 no way bamboo grows normally in north america lol if it is here its on someone's private property or a nature preserve for animals that eat it like pandas
I used to live in Palestine Texas and there was acres of it growing wild up there
Yeah, in South Florida, groves of bamboo grow wild. Of course bamboo is NOT native to Florida. It is an invasive species, wiping out zillions of acres of native species 😮
I've witnessed plenty of wild bamboo in the Grand Valley of south TX.
North America has three species of 'Bamboo', that ARE NATIVE to North America! Go back to school, and study North America biology! You obviously don't know 'Bamboo'.
Correction; Wild Bamboo 'is' native to south Florida, go back to school and study Florida flora, something that you don't know anything about it! @@mickeyray3793
The story of America certainly did not start with Columbus, The Vikings, or even The so-called Native Americans, but rather the ones who came way before the "natives."
Isn't Australia the largest island in the world.
That's what I say. But they don't count it as an Island because it's too big.
Most Eastern point in North America is cape spear Newfoundland
If Yellowstone blows we’re all dead. Think snowball earth.
Is on planet Jupiter's selling space 🌌🚀 for Rocket fuil tanks?
as always, they always focus mostly on Canada and the U.S in these North American documentaries lol
Tornadoes wind speed dont get up to 800mph lol. I think 250-300mph is about max.
