Mind-blowing animations, I could have just stayed in India 🤯 But seriously, thank you for this unforgettable experience. 🙏 Whenever you need someone to go into the middle of absolutely nowhere again, I’m ready!
Thank you for going there and taking us with you! Danke und liebste Grüße aus DE! P.S. Also loved seeing you in the Carpathians, my mother country, very pleased to see your fascination with the beautiful nature!
Seeing Vali s face when he first saw the rift was just amazing … his observations just made the video… explains the feelings and the energy of the place . Incredible.
following the graphic of the magma upwelling, his description of walking there was really haunting. i forgot myself for a second and was scared he would actually break through the crust
Fun fact. Landlocked Ethiopia is currently in a struggle to get sea access by Somalia. One of Somalia’s ministers joked to Ethiopia that they should be a little patient bc they’ll get ocean access in a few million years 😂
I really like that you managed to put both humour and serious parts in here, that you talked both about a bit of the theory behind this phenomenon and had an expert voice appear while also not disregarding the people living there and talking about them for a bit. You've achieved a really well-rounded mix for a video this short that still delivers quite some information. I could keep watching for hours. Great work!
I'm jealous I'll never be alive to see the whole split. But I bet that some people who see the end of the split will be jealous of me for being alive to see the beginning. What a time to be alive.
As a geology major, its amazing to see this kind of information about faulting and strike/slip faults presented in an interesting and palatable way, me and my fellow geologists appreciate the effort the team put in to make something, normally specialized, accessible to the average person. Keep it up!
Now that you mention it I can really imagine how dry and boring this topic could have been taught in some random auditorium and I'm even more happy with Fern for their work :D
Same with this geography student! Although we don’t go into as much detail on how these things occur, we do go into why a little. I just know if my geography teachers were explaining this I would find this a bit boring lol
As a Kenyan Subscriber, I am actually happy to see you guys do this... The rifts have happened severally in the lower rift valley with little to moderate weather changes. I must say, without flogging a dead horse, you guys really do a good Job, research and production! This is why I'm subscribed!
I remember visiting the Afar region in 2019. This brings back so many memories - the incredible landscapes and people, the boys with Crocs and Kalashnikovs, the camel caravans, going to the salt flats on the Eritrean border and sleeping on the lip of an active volcano (Erta Ale). It was a truly humbling experience. The only vehicles on the road were the white Toyota pickups of the tour guides and red Chinese construction trucks. I remember how excited our tour guides were to show us a new road that would cut travel time to the volcano by 2 hours.
Thank you for the statement on 19:06 they really embrace the spirit and resilience of their home. As an Ethiopian, seeing one of my favorite TH-cam channels covering the Afar region was the best thing ever. Thank you Fern and @valilevi
Ich kommentiere wirklich selten, aber dieses Video ist ein Meisterwerk geworden. Die Informationen, sogar jemand in echt hinzuschicken und dann diese unglaublichen Animationen? Einfach wow, echt super geworden. Besser als VIEEEEELE Dokus etc. von riesigen Firmen. Respekt!
Beautifully presented and great to spend time in the people in the region rather than solely the Geology, big shout-out to the professor from Southampton taking the time to provide his insight, great vid
that shot of the goats going into the volcano was so "unnecessary" but such a perfect example of the quality of these videos. compliments to your animation team
I am a teacher and today I was teaching continent - continent drift. I was looking for good videos to show in my class. Surely I am going to use this one, and will also recommend your channel to my students.
I would like to point out tho, that its not "happening again" like he claims (9:25), but that it is constant and doesnt stop and start. It is quite disappointing how high quality the videos are and then they have silly little factual mistakes that show that it hasnt been researched quite as well as they appear to be (It's not specific to this one unfortunately). Still great quality overall, but it ruins it a bit for me. Edit: fixed slightly wrong wording on quote and added timestamp for it.
@@reedthorngag1810 I think they are talking about the separation tho, as for a long time continents have not separated. They are not saying continental drift is happening "again"
@@reedthorngag1810 the timestamp is about 10s off. Also they were talking about the rift opening up the continent of Africa, like it did with pangea. It wasn't about continental drift itself, ofc that is continuous.
@@Travellahhbtw TH-cam doesn't have any ads in Ethiopia. So we always watch TH-cam ad free, we can also download videos without any premium subscription. To put it simply we get every premium service with the exception of playing TH-cam in the background.
As a teaching student I really love watching Fern videos! Not just the quality of the information and the animations are unmatched on TH-cam, but also the storytelling is incredibly good 🍿 I appreciate you folks posting this content of the highest quality for all of us for free on TH-cam very much! My future students will have to watch some of your videos with me in class 🙌 Sidenote: I loved the guy that traveled and filmed for you! Insanely sympathetic and a good videographer 🍻
I'm from ethiopia and I've been watching you for a while. Earthquakes are obviously normal around these places but now the tremors are frequently being felt all the way in addis ababa. thank you for covering afar
Has the government changed the building code to earthquake standards? Seems like most of the high rise are still using the budget methods of pure concrete and brick constructions without any bracing for earthquakes.
@@PrograError Yup the public is voicing concerns on building methods and we should adapt for the new reality. But government buildings will be fine, since the officials with their swinging seats may be the best natural dampers out there😂
What a gorgeous documentary video- as always fern delivers!- but this time, it really moved me, it had a wonderful human touch to it and I feel Vali was the perfect person to send there, his gratefulness was so touching! Thank you for taking us on such a journey to a place we will never visit!❤
The production is amazing!!! Big thanks to you. I can't wait for more information. I'm looking forward to the German dub. Are there any videos of you in Spanish? Die Produktion ist unglaublich gut!!! Vielen Dank an euch. Ich kann es kaum erwarten bis es mehr Infos gibt, zudem freue ich mich auf den Deutsch dub, gibt es irgendwelche von euch in Spanisch?
I stumbled onto this channel a few months back, and i am surprised how fast the videos are improving. It's really a pleasure to watch these really high quality videos for absolutely free! Thank you fern!
Aww You guys picked the right guy for the job. You could tell how humbling and life-changing that trip was to him. Very cool vid and INTENSE use of the classical music! haha 🤙🏽🌺
Ich finde es mega nice, dass ihr das konzept jz igw chilliger und humorvoller gemacht habt. Eure videos sind halt wirklich Filme inzwischen !!! Und Unfassbar ist euch auch extrem gut gelungen!
I was just looking into this subject a couple weeks ago and i was so annoyed that i couldn't find recent in-person videos of the fissure. Im super happy that u covered it and went as far as to send someone there to film and show us how it actually looks and how the people their are living. Thank you so very much ❤️
This video was SO good, the production value, the animations, the storytelling… Y’all have consistently exceeded my expectations with every video, good stuff ❤

This isn’t just some TH-cam video… This is such an incredible production!!! Great job, bravo everyone at Fern! Incredible video and fascinating. Thanks for the great content!:)
I am from Ethiopia, and this month only, just five 4.6 magnitude earthquakes occurred in that region, and earthquakes are not that often for us, therefore I believe something significant is happening.
I think, in general, earthquakes this year seems to be very common. Just in Japan and near region there are several larger earthquakes, including the New Year's Japanese earthquake (USGS: MW7.5) and the Taiwanese quake (USGS: MW7.4) several months later.
@@PrograError I agree, global seismic activity has been notable this year. However, Ethiopia typically experiences few earthquakes, so the recent increase is unusual and could suggest something noteworthy is happening.
I had so many questions i was asking myself throughout the video, you answered them all. These videos just keep getting so much more detailed and im all for it! Keep it up fern
I could hug all of you. Seeing you making a video about this just makes me ridiculously happy. I spend my days reading up (the disableds version of researching) about the geological history of earth, specifically about what we can read from the geological structures (mountain ranges, etc) we have today. It's special watching it happen in real time and you of all people making this video is just... Thank you
wow. fern has just casually uploaded one of the best independent 100% creator made documentaries for FREE. The research, production and writing surpasses the big documentary makers, and is a testament to the power of the internet and creator independence. There's a lot to miss about traditional tv and production houses as they slowly die, but creators like fern prove the future of content is bright. Well fucking done.
Einer euer besten videos auf diesem Kanal! Wirklich Respekt, das ihr es hinbekommt, auf so vielen verschiedenen Kanälen, so oft so Spannende Videos hochzuladen.
Fern/Hoog/Simpicissimus are the channels I'd be down to donate to once I earn money. They absolutely deserve support for their high quality animations and documentations
Wow, was für ein hervorragender Film. Wie schafft ihr das nur, zwei Kanäle mit solch hohem Standard und so vielen Uploads anzubieten? Dau jetzt noch der Podcast.Nicht zu vergessen 2BoredGuys. Einfach beeindruckend. Danke für den Beitrag, das war hochinteressant.
You guys’ production quality always blows my mind, yet you continue to improve more with every video. No one else on TH-cam right now holds a candle imo
this production quality is something i've never seen on youtube before. felt like a nat geo documentary. heck it felt better than some nat geo documentaries..
this was an actual movie and it captured the people's lives which is like extra content. I went to tanzania once and really appreciated this video when it went into the people's lives near the afar region. production quality is crazy
I know that I say this every video but damn the animations, and just the whole rythm of the video, the musics, I swear this channel is close to perfection
Fern, I can't thank you enough for the amazing work you do! Your videos are beyond high-quality, and the level of research and detail you put into them really shows. This video really stands out, it was an eye-opening experience; crazy good animations and the fact that you guys set up to travel to the actual locations just to make these videos for us to watch for free is mind-blowing. Honestly, it's like I'm getting way more value than even a TH-cam Premium subscription. Keep up the incredible work! 🙌
I'm a subscriber from day 1 and watched every video, but this is one of my favorites. Love the intro, the drone shots, the animations, etc. But especially the narration when vloging that is beautifully supported by great music. It just gave me goosebumps this whole video. So thank you fern and Vali Levi for bringing such an incredible story about geology, politics but foremost the people!
man, seeing how much this channel has evolved has really impressed me, I remember in their older videos their animations looked good, but nothing like what they have now. Keep up the good work!
Holy moly man, this is some serious production value. I got chills from the first few minutes with how immersed I was. I want to say it's Netflix level, but I honestly feel that would be insulting in a way. Keep up the awesome work. :)
This was a great inside look at this geological event. I can't imagine living in that area, and am amazed at just all the places humans can live, and (somewhat) thrive.
As someone who loves geology, and paleontology and everything the ground effects its crazy to see this happening. I feel bad for those whom it effects but it's fascinating to see such a big change happen, albeit begin, within my lifetime. Especially how early on in my life means I get to see even more of its effecs
I was here in 2019. In the afar region. With Action Tours. I was traveling with an adventurer, shooting his trip and we were Misganaw’s first travelers to the fissure. He is an amazing person and guide. Great video.
Your worlds fastest drone kamikazed into my sons forehead and now he is in a coma and cant stop mumbling bout the skidbibi toilet in his very long medical nap. i am sueing
Amazing video ! Any chance the custom song starting at rough 8:30 to 10:50 could get released in some form??? Its soooo good and flat out perfect for the scene it was used in
Seeing a random Twitter Post: -every normal person: ok cool -fern: spends ours of deeper research, asks experts about the topic, actually travels to Africa and makes a 23 minutes short film out of it
@@00shivani Nothing, lol - as a matter of fact, I'm running Blender on my laptop (which doesn't even have a dedicated GPU!) I do aspire to have a MacBook Pro, though, because the battery life on my (14-inch) IdeaPad is genuinely atrocious.
@@just_mdd4 I’m a programmer + artist and I purchased a desktop computer this year. For $1200 i got intel i9 13th gen cpu + standard intel graphics card (but i can switch it out whenever), 32GB ram, and 2TB SSD, plus a monitor keyboard and mouse. I was on a little laptop prior to that too. Even if i switch to a top of the line nvidia graphics card, my final cost would be close to $2000, whereas a new iMac of similar specs would be no less than $3k. I’ve used an iMac before and it’s fine, only considerations, you can’t go in and customize your preferences after purchasing it. Also I’m not a fan of how the mouse moves and that the browsers are never full screen lol. All this to say: save your money lol. PCs are better value. I use apple products for everything else, iPhone, iPad (although i regret buying my iPad… i should have bought the MacBook laptop instead, and for drawing, a standard drawing pad attachment for my computer. I bought the iPad mostly for procreate. Bad usage. Can’t properly use photoshop, blender, nothing) But MacBooks are very nice too. I haven’t researched that many laptops, but i know MacBook is a better deal than the iMac.

I remember visiting the Afar region in 2019. This brings back so many memories - the incredible landscapes and people, the boys with Crocs and Kalashnikovs, the camel caravans, going to the salt flats on the Eritrean border and sleeping on the lip of an active volcano (Erta Ale). It was a truly humbling experience. The only vehicles on the road were the white Toyota pickups of the tour guides and red Chinese construction trucks. I remember how excited our tour guides were to show us a new road that would cut travel time to the volcano by 2 hours.
This fern video was way more humorous than the rest, nice change of pace. Yet the video quality stayed the same or better.

Wow, was für ein hervorragender Film. Wie schafft ihr das nur, zwei Kanäle mit solch hohem Standard und so vielen Uploads anzubieten? Dau jetzt noch der Podcast.Nicht zu vergessen 2BoredGuys. Einfach beeindruckend. Danke für den Beitrag, das war hochinteressant.
The quality. This is a Netflix docuseries + the personality of TH-cam.
Spectacular
Cool
You guys’ production quality always blows my mind, yet you continue to improve more with every video. No one else on TH-cam right now holds a candle imo
this production quality is something i've never seen on youtube before. felt like a nat geo documentary. heck it felt better than some nat geo documentaries..
this was an actual movie and it captured the people's lives which is like extra content. I went to tanzania once and really appreciated this video when it went into the people's lives near the afar region. production quality is crazy
I know that I say this every video but damn the animations, and just the whole rythm of the video, the musics, I swear this channel is close to perfection
Fern, I can't thank you enough for the amazing work you do! Your videos are beyond high-quality, and the level of research and detail you put into them really shows. This video really stands out, it was an eye-opening experience; crazy good animations and the fact that you guys set up to travel to the actual locations just to make these videos for us to watch for free is mind-blowing. Honestly, it's like I'm getting way more value than even a TH-cam Premium subscription. Keep up the incredible work! 🙌
Thank you for the kind words! We are really proud of this one :)
@@fern-tv I am gonna touch you man thnk you
Ridiculous

You're tearing me apart, Lisa!
Ya beat me to it. Oh, hi @@hashbrown777
16:33 absolute magic man. It does come across on camera. 🔥🔥🔥
I LOVE FERN, been watching since the channel was smaller, YALL DESERVE ALL THE GROWTHH!!! ❤
Haven't seen a you tube video as cinematographic as this one!YOU ARE THE GOAT, Sebastian here, from the mid of the world Ecuador!
I'm a subscriber from day 1 and watched every video, but this is one of my favorites. Love the intro, the drone shots, the animations, etc. But especially the narration when vloging that is beautifully supported by great music. It just gave me goosebumps this whole video. So thank you fern and Vali Levi for bringing such an incredible story about geology, politics but foremost the people!
man, seeing how much this channel has evolved has really impressed me, I remember in their older videos their animations looked good, but nothing like what they have now. Keep up the good work!
this isnt just a "youtuber" this is a cinematic masterpiece, natgeo is gonna put the fries in the bag because of this man
Holy moly man, this is some serious production value. I got chills from the first few minutes with how immersed I was. I want to say it's Netflix level, but I honestly feel that would be insulting in a way. Keep up the awesome work. :)
Everyone in Ethiopia seemed to smile at him.... They seemed so happy, their eyes so expressive... awh...
I live in ethiopia and i can coniform this, there are cracks formed in the afar region.
Me my brother
I love this kind of Geography content especially when it is made by such a high-quality channel
This was a great inside look at this geological event. I can't imagine living in that area, and am amazed at just all the places humans can live, and (somewhat) thrive.
As someone who loves geology, and paleontology and everything the ground effects its crazy to see this happening. I feel bad for those whom it effects but it's fascinating to see such a big change happen, albeit begin, within my lifetime. Especially how early on in my life means I get to see even more of its effecs
Your humor gets me every time, with such a serious tone overall the story is told in such a professional manner.
10/10 as always. Crazy interesting,
Flat earthers are confused
It's a hollow, giant, flat earth with dinosaurs in the geometric center because all math and geometry is a lie. What's there to be confused about? XD
This actually makes sense on a flat earth but you wouldn’t understand
sad
@@keithparks7598 Please enlighten us
@@keithparks7598Go ahead, tell us more.
Wow! Just wow. Amazing quality video. I always expect quality when I click on a fern video but wow.
3:01 We GOT FERN HUMOUR BEFORE GTA 6!!!!!!
I was here in 2019. In the afar region. With Action Tours. I was traveling with an adventurer, shooting his trip and we were Misganaw’s first travelers to the fissure. He is an amazing person and guide. Great video.
Loved this video 🙌🏼
Your worlds fastest drone kamikazed into my sons forehead and now he is in a coma and cant stop mumbling bout the skidbibi toilet in his very long medical nap. i am sueing
Amazing video ! Any chance the custom song starting at rough 8:30 to 10:50 could get released in some form??? Its soooo good and flat out perfect for the scene it was used in
Had the same thought, fantastic tune!
Yeah was looking to see if anyone else was wondering too. I can't find anything in my searchings
bro long live fern this channel is so underrated
Seeing a random Twitter Post:
-every normal person: ok cool
-fern: spends ours of deeper research, asks experts about the topic, actually travels to Africa and makes a 23 minutes short film out of it
Absolutely Great vid Great content. Thank you 🙏
👍
Fern uses MacBooks with Blender? No wonder why the videos are at such a high quality standard! 👏🙌
Sorry but what’s wrong with a PC and Blender 😂
@@00shivani Nothing, lol - as a matter of fact, I'm running Blender on my laptop (which doesn't even have a dedicated GPU!)
I do aspire to have a MacBook Pro, though, because the battery life on my (14-inch) IdeaPad is genuinely atrocious.
@@just_mdd4 I’m a programmer + artist and I purchased a desktop computer this year. For $1200 i got intel i9 13th gen cpu + standard intel graphics card (but i can switch it out whenever), 32GB ram, and 2TB SSD, plus a monitor keyboard and mouse. I was on a little laptop prior to that too. Even if i switch to a top of the line nvidia graphics card, my final cost would be close to $2000, whereas a new iMac of similar specs would be no less than $3k. I’ve used an iMac before and it’s fine, only considerations, you can’t go in and customize your preferences after purchasing it. Also I’m not a fan of how the mouse moves and that the browsers are never full screen lol.
All this to say: save your money lol. PCs are better value. I use apple products for everything else, iPhone, iPad (although i regret buying my iPad… i should have bought the MacBook laptop instead, and for drawing, a standard drawing pad attachment for my computer. I bought the iPad mostly for procreate. Bad usage. Can’t properly use photoshop, blender, nothing)
But MacBooks are very nice too. I haven’t researched that many laptops, but i know MacBook is a better deal than the iMac.
We had like 3 subtle Earthquakes in the past 3 weeks all over Addis Ababa, they said it's because of the Rift...
0:58 The intro gave me chills..
This channel puts out consistently high quality videos. Keep it up, fern!!
BROOO WHAT ARE THESE ANIMATIONS AND TRANSITIONS.... I FEEL LIKE I'M IN THE CINEMA FERN JUST GETS BETTER AND BETTER. This is the type of videos that TH-cam was flooded with 8years ago happy to see there's still atleast someone making videos of this quality! 😂
