Never thought I'd one day spend 20 minutes looking at mud and want more. It's mesmerizing in it's own terrifying way, can't pull your eyes away from it! What a truly awesome force of nature
I have seen lots of videos of this. I wish someone would show where this starts and explain why there are so many big boulders every time. and than show where this goes through town and where it ends. amazing for sure. stay safe.
I was glad to see you step up the hill a little when that flow got closer. Such a good example of the logs, boulders and rocks are such a heavy part of the flow at the beginning. The sound is amazing. The power of water! Thank you for sharing this!

Practically a concrete flow. So thick with mud and rocks. Never seen a flow this large before. I imagine that if an animal was caught in that, then this may be one way a fossil begins.
@@thetruthstrangerthanfictio954 everybody knows... and there are sirens, signs and emergency dep. will warn you per sms text. But they can be a lot larger... I mean huge huge ;) landslide.. and it only happen when it rains ..
Looking at this, I was just thinking, I used to be a hobby prospector, and sometimes used a small dredge in the river, but was blocked from doing that anymore because i might make the water cloudy, I though that was a little strange considering what mother mature does with things like this. LOL
Impressive stuff right there! I think some kind of documentation about the source(s) of these flows as well as how rivers are not completely dammed up would be interesting. Cheers!
@@viperus1234 On the other hand, being up close and personal where huge rocks are peeling away might not be a terribly comfortable recording environment. :-)
Wouldn’t that technically just be rain falling on the mountains? After all, it’s got to collect and start flowing first. It would be relaxing to listen to, though
"Flood Fronts" in Australia would have thousands of dead trees, and ground litter at the front of any wave. Millions of tonnes would appear 10 metres high before you say any water. Gum trees lose their lower branches as they grow. That is why you see them all around the world. Firewood + Whole tree to mill.
The force of water is truly incredible, the size and weight of some of those rocks 😮 It just shows erosion in action and how over geological time scales whole mountains can wear away. Great vid, must have been awesome to be there 👍😎
They're watching the upstream spillway from under the roadway bridge. Suddenly Godzilla mud monster appears over the upstream spillway and they're thinking "Hey, why don't we climb further on up the bank here". Yikes
Holy shit that intimidating at the start imagine being under the centre of the bridge and seeing that coming towards you I’d be scrambling to get to higher ground thinking “oh shit oh shit oh shit OH SHIIIT!!!”
In the American Southwest, you'll find dry washes all over the place. They're fascinating places, full of great cobbles, very inviting places for off-road driving and camping ... ... except. Let a thunderstorm blow up thirty miles upstream, far enough away that there's not a cloud in the sky where you are, and about an hour later the flash flood will hit. And when you're *in* the dry wash, there often isn't an easy or quick way for a vehicle to get out. That's why locals -- or anyone who's seen how fast a wash can fill with churning debris-laden water -- know that you don't hang out in a dry wash. You cross one quick. You drive along it up on the bank. You camp above it -- but you don't spend more time *in* it than you absolutely have to. Even if it's a hot dry day.
That's outrageous footage. Looks like wet concrete with the biggest aggregate ever. One thing about being in front of that flow, you never know how far, fast, and high it could get. You DO have some historical high watermarks with the banks. I think you'd be darn near dead if you fell into that, you'd be beaten to crap with those rocks, fast.
That Debris have a lot of Power. I bet that you feel the rumble under your Feet. Thank you for Uploading. Where was this Event? When Rocks of this Size jumps you know there is much Energy behind.
Didn't felt my feet :) full of adrenalin :) but it is loud like a train rushing by - this is in switzerland - illgraben: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illgraben

thx so much for this video. es hilft mir viel Events in geology zu verstehen weshalb manche canyons wie "mosaic canyon" so scharf ausgewaschen sind. und das Wasser mit mud so schwere Steine kann bewegen. Es ist die faszination für die natur, die Kraft und das Verstehen für die Entstehung der Erde im manchen Orten. So vielen Dank sehr viel für diese lange Aufnahme. 🙏🤗

What are the parameters that determine the periodicity of the flow surges? How do total flow volume, flow viscosity, particle size, % water to solids, clay percentage, etc govern the time between surge peaks?
Thank you very much for this excellent video presentation which is very much appreciated. The people are absolutely delighted with the work that you have done in producing this film.
QUESTIONS! Where's it coming from? Where's it going to? And is there more than one flow from the source? I would like seeing one of these in person. Thanks for sharing your video with me. Stay safe, Vickie
Comes down the mountain every time a big thunderstorm hits the place. It goes down the river of the Rhone and you are very welcome to visit Switzerland and see for yourself ;) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illgraben
A gentleman named Pierre - Emanuel Zufferey has released an excellent video about the origins of the flow. The flows are frequent in late Spring and Summer. I hope you get to go.

yes, the side walls are not stable and may break down in the flow 😆
The power of gravity!
I'm always amazed when the first thing you see is a wall of massive boulders sliding along, and the wet soupy stuff comes at the very end.
Like to see where it goes into the river to the left.
Just like 'all you can eat burrito night' at the pub!

Lol, was about to ask the same.. Which country has this beautifull clean blue water? 😂
I can only imagine how loud that must have been in the flesh and sheer awe at the power of that flow. It looks like a cement mixer dumped it’s load
Now that's some serious power! Imagine falling into that rock tumbler. Mush.
Magnificent way of returning glass to nature. All crunched up into sand.
straight recycled to a concrete, high speed, delivery ;)
It looks like the mountain is pooping cement.

Thanks for the shots of the town. It's nice to have that context.
little overview :)
its crazy to see how it pushes those rocks like its nothing, really cool video!
Wow it looks like concrete!!! With boulders!
I would love to see a video of them constructing this concrete channel and the meter thick walls used to center/slow the flow.

@@viperus1234 On the other hand, being up close and personal where huge rocks are peeling away might not be a terribly comfortable recording environment. :-)
It looks like the traps are created with certain distance in order to basically crush the stone and timber floating.
How fertile is the contents of the flow? - Could it be used once it stops as a source of nutrients to be spread on the neighboring lands?
After seeing this I had to go out and get me a chocolate shake!
Use of a drone at the source would be interesting as well.
Wouldn’t that technically just be rain falling on the mountains? After all, it’s got to collect and start flowing first. It would be relaxing to listen to, though
What "source?”
Sure Jimmy.
We all carry one around. . . hoping for flash flood.
Oh look kids, It's going to rain.
Load a drone.
Honey bring your drone along hiking. No wait bring the trekking poles. We are hiking not playing.

Greetings from the BIG SKY. Now, that's some erosion there.
Large boulders are being swept along like toy boats. Mother nature is impressive AF.

What are the parameters that determine the periodicity of the flow surges? How do total flow volume, flow viscosity, particle size, % water to solids, clay percentage, etc govern the time between surge peaks?
the main parameter between two events is the rainfall, it needs a big downpour of water, therefore volume and visc is given
