What they didn't mention: The amount by which the dam slowed the earth's rotation is *0.06 microseconds* -- that is 6/100 of one microsecond, or just over one-half of one-tenth of a microsecond. Since one microsecond is one MILLIONTH of a second, it would take nearly 20 MILLION YEARS for the cumulative slowing effect to reach ONE SECOND in a day's rotation. In other words, not a whole boatload of an impact...
Scientists are saying days are getting shorter, earth is spinning faster. The shortest day on record was in June. There’s hardly any danger of the earth slowing down.
I feel like you are doom mongering. The moment of inertia will return to normal in a few centuries when the dam fails or is removed. The effect is essentially negligible because the earth is so massive.
Or is blown up due to China making so many powerful states angry. Or worse non state actors/terrorists. That would be horrible I shouldn't say that. Let's hope they keep it well maintained and protected.

Put your hands up high like the Arctic ice and spin around. Moves the heavy weights from the center of the spin moving it to a mass at the equator the rotation will slow.
Ever see a skater do a spin? When they bring their arms in, they spin faster. When they extend their arms out, they spin slower. Raising a whole buncha water a few feet above sea level is like the earth extending its arms a little bit. Does that help?

This is a smear. Three Gorges Dam holds a water body of 39.3 km3, Taipu dam from Brazil/Paraguay has 29 km3 and Venezuela's Guri dam holds a massive 135 km3. This video singles out just that the Three Gorges Dam is the one slowing down the earth rotation which according to scientist is a loss of 6/100,000 second in earth rotation. I think the China-haters have lost it by looking at one corner of the iceberg. Three Gorges generates just about 100 TWh electricity, which on its own can power 1/3 of UK annual need, but China in 2021 generated 1,340 TWh from its hydro fleet. How large is 1,340 TWh? Well apart from China, US and India no other country on earth can generate more than 1,340 TWh no matter what form of generations put together in a year. Also most hydro power China generates is dispatched to over 2,000km away to the consumers. That kind of transmission technology is unavailable outside China. So smearing China doesn't make the western economies better or stronger but will makes China more advanced and powerful technologically. The three Gorges dam commenced generating electricity in 2003. The west has been concentrating to demonise and slander it weekly, monthly and yearly. China during the intervening period has increased the hydro generation by 4.76 times since 2003. China is now the world's biggest renewable generator in each of solar, wind and hydro!
Imho, Hydro is far superior.. tho i would have limited to smaller Hydro electric facilities/dams which if fail, wouldn't have the same massive negative effect.. and Renewable sources of energy are NOT all they're cracked up to be either.. they are in fact an environmental disaster as far as the ecological damage they create.. Wind Turbine Blades that need to be buried bcz they're NOT recyclable.. and same goes for Solar Panels after their roughly 25 yrs of useful service.. hopefully some clever ppl will come up with solutions within the next 10 - 15 yrs.. i won't be around more than likely by the time the solar panels on my roof are done and dusted.. like myself we will both be MIA in this realm.. not to mention the wildlife that are destroyed by Wind Turbine Farms and the fires etc they can generate when they fail..

China is far better when compared to India, at least your projects have qualify unlike in India KAALESHWARAM project which got constructed with 20 billion dollars has started falling a part.
Good video, but there are some mistakes in the language and rhetoric. Sun Yat-Sen was not "the former politician in China" in 1919. He was the serving President of the Republic of China. The dam does not provide "enough energy to run 15 nuclear reactors", it provides the equivalent energy output of 15 nuclear reactors. The dam didn't "reduce" all that CO2, acid nitrate and hydrogen sulphide. It's unclear what is meant here, but I think the point is that the dam avoided the creation of these chemicals that would have happened from other energy production. Lastly, the fact the day cycle is 24 hours long has nothing to do with the point about whether the dam makes the day shorter or longer, so the "because" shouldn't fit here. In terms of the content, there are a few missed opportunities. The The Gorges Dam is interesting on its face, but it is even more interesting when you consider there are many other huge dams on the same river, whose total combined capacity far exceeds that of Three Gorges. Also the dam is the second-heaviest man-made construction in existence, after the Great Wall of China and before the Pyramids at Giza. And finally, the dam had been discussed as a target for Taiwan - something for them to attack in retaliation, should China ever invade Taiwan, which would cause a catastrophic environmental and humanitarian disaster.
The earth will slow down. People will weigh more!!! Soo, now my wife can argue with me. It's not about calories in and calories burned. I'm not getting fat. It's the earths slowing down fault. 😉😂😂
Show us where this information is on the NASA website, please. Any links to prove that NASA reported this? I did not find this information on the NASA website.
All these materials and water were already on the planet. And this tiny thing, compared to the size of the planet, won't affect the length of the day. The rotation of the earth is actually speeding up if you look at the data.
I think that the essence of the video is in the click byte. The argument of the earth slowing down is not supported by logic. Slowing down or speeding up can only be caused by a change in the weight - the amount of water in this case or its height from the center of the Earth. None of this has changed, the flow in the Yangtze Tiang is still the same and the average height of the water also remains the same. In addition, the amount of water in the dam compared to the weight of water in the oceans is negligible.
@@La_Ron It actually is speeding up. Ben Davidson keeps track of the data on his channel. The magnetic field and solar activity are what speeds or slows the earth, not weight distribution, which hasn’t changed. It’s being tracked by solar scientists, among others. You might want to check it out.
The Yangtze is dry ...the dam is both cracked, and dissolving at the base...big holes are now seen in the low water.... Siltation has now reached 29 meters at the base, which hastens the softening of the inferior cement. The record low water level has placed a reverse tension on the structure itself. ...which hastens the cracking on the supports built into it. The Chinese have built numerous dams in the upper regions....these regions are in a severe earthquake zone...and have been taking shock after shock as a result...they are also cracking, and disaster awaits a badly thought plan. If the 200 year drought ends...and the dam fills again, it will collapse...or maybe barely hold the water..who knows?? But, an upper dam failure will kill millions in Wuhan, Shanghai, and leave. 16 ft mud floor that will makes the cities uninhabitable for decades.

@@rburnett6266 Every infrastructure has a finite life span and every design has a safety factor against the local condition including earthquake. If you are qualified professional you wouldn't ask a silly question like you did in the Internet. I am not related to Chinese engineering design but I did had a brief contact with the China's nuclear design and reinforced concrete concrete design codes and they are just as thorough and comprehensive as the American. Developed countries like UK doesn't have a nuclear code so don't underestimate China's capability. Seismic design is just one of the many design requirements, like wind and tidal force, in the design of any structure. The risk of certain vulnerable areas is normally covered by a zone factor based on the historical earthquake history. Thus you can expect the zone factor of Sichuan will be bigger than that say in Beijing and will have a much larger corresponding "Peak Ground Acceleration" (PGA). In the US the maximum used is higher than 0.32g.for zone 4 covering areas like California whereas Texas whereas North Dakota is in Zone 0 expected to have PGA between 0.05 to 0.08g. Just like the US the Chinese safety factor used on seismic zone is based on their best estimate but there are also other factor relating to the importance of the structure, the type of the structure based on its ductility, statistical risk factor etc. One statistical factor for the Three Gorges is it has been designed for 1 in 1,000 years flood. I know for a nuclear station many installations have designed to 1/500 to 1/1,000 event. Bearing the life span of a reinforced concrete structure, like a dam, seldom more than 100 years by which time concrete is expected to be totally carbonated and reinforcing steel would have corroded beyond economic repair. I am not saying the Chinese design will last but every design is protected by the design code which represents the current state of the human knowledge. When something bad happens the national body will look at the design standard and increase the safety factor to suit the frontier of our knowledge. This is universal in every developed country throughout the world. Singling China designers doing inferior jobs and lack the thoroughness of the western countries is childish. There is no country more interested and committed in modernising its scientific knowledge than China.
The economic strategy of this dam construction and nuclear power plant will be discussed later. Because of the economic strategy, other countries Chinese strategy continues to be seen because of the size of the descendants and public opinion, but the Chinese government also has regulations, and history changes when the descendants change and are persuaded.
If so, UN should come forward to propose the opposition to this huge Three Gorges Dam which can affect even Our Earth rotation pattern without giving a slightest thought about its huge side effect on all the human beings living in this planet. If Xi Jiping thought China belongs to him and he will do whatever he wants to do in China but no concern is shown about the bad effects from such unnatural thing on people of this planet. Take care of this planet by all the responsible authorities and leaders alike. It is not late now.
@@tvsettv This dam is a comprehensive success, and over the past decade, all residents along the way have felt the economic and environmental benefits it has brought. Except for those who had to leave their homes at the beginning, everything in this video is bullshit, fake news sent by some anti China groups. Don't you think 'the dam caused the flood' is an illogical statement? In fact, the Yangtze River has always been a dangerous river, and it is very, very long, so there will always be floods in a certain section of this river every year. In the eyes of Western media, they cannot see the dam reducing the disaster score from 100% to 15%, but believe that the dam caused these 15% disasters and deliberately smear the dam😅. Talk to any Chinese living in that area, and you will get the truth.
The world is spinning from the beginning until today unchanged from it's normal rotation. We feel the time is faster not due to the Earth spinning faster but because of what we have today with all the tech gadgets ..... all lead to a full of Self Entertainments where we are so busy with our lives enjoying it .....

The scientific evidence suggests for a person lives up to 100 years old he/she would have experienced a total 2.19 second slowing down if he/she keeps a digital watch to record it on the day he/she was born.
🔴 after this was built in China let's look at the flooding in China in 2023 and the catastrophic results ❓ ❓❓, my scientific analytical experiments, in conjunction with Stanford University concurred the fact that the man-made lake 255,000 square miles, affected the Earth's rotation and it's axis, David Staudohar USMC USN SS USCG PHD MBA MSB MA BA ret ‼️
Then explain why my days are passing fast, both days and nights 😂 But a bigger issue in regards to dams is the Ethiopian dam which is reducing the flow of Nile
You don't get the point the earth is a massive planet as compared to the dams built so the moment of inertia will not affect the fucking planets rotation.
it effected the rotation by .06 milliseconds. How much effect has the loss of the Aral Sea had on the earth rotation? it was only the 4th biggest land locked body of water on earth prior to 1960.
Don't credit China the power to stop the earth rotation, ... so, miniscule alien missiles could technically also be stop by China?? Hear how absurd your take on the Yangtze River Hydro Power Project is ?
Good information until the end. Then it just calls it a disaster because its chinese. If it was an American project they would have praised it as a saving grace. Probably one of the greatest Feats of engineering in this world. China proved hydro electric works. America still 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 holding onto fossil fuels til we flounder.
You never mentioned how much it less than 0.02 sec it has absolutely no effect in the lifetime of earth even without the dam the earth rotation is slowing down some models predict it will stop in a million years china's dam has fastened it by about 10 yrs I guess 'wow they created a disaster'🤦♂️
Every time there's a huge earthquake, there are always headlines about the effect it had on the Earth's rotation. "Massive Earthquake Slowed Earth's Rotation!" Like this video, those headlines say less about the effect these things have on the planet and more about our impressive ability to calculate extremely tiny and practically meaningless changes to Earth's rotation. The real headline should be about how amazing physics is and how it allows us to calculate such incredibly small changes.

I know for a nuclear station many installations have designed to 1/500 to 1/1,000 event. Bearing the life span of a reinforced concrete structure, like a dam, seldom more than 100 years by which time concrete is expected to be totally carbonated and reinforcing steel would have corroded beyond economic repair.
I am not saying the Chinese design will last but every design is protected by the design code which represents the current state of the human knowledge. When something bad happens the national body will look at the design standard and increase the safety factor to suit the frontier of our knowledge. This is universal in every developed country throughout the world. Singling China designers doing inferior jobs and lack the thoroughness of the western countries is childish. There is no country more interested and committed in modernising its scientific knowledge than China.
💯👏🏻
@@gunsumwong3948 true
The economic strategy of this dam construction and nuclear power plant will be discussed later. Because of the economic strategy, other countries
Chinese strategy continues to be seen because of the size of the descendants and public opinion, but the Chinese government also has regulations, and history changes when the descendants change and are persuaded.
ah, nice to know. I diddnt just got fat, it was the freaking dam, damn!
If so, UN should come forward to propose the opposition to this huge Three Gorges Dam which can affect even Our Earth rotation pattern without giving a slightest thought about its huge side effect on all the human beings living in this planet. If Xi Jiping thought China belongs to him and he will do whatever he wants to do in China but no concern is shown about the bad effects from such unnatural thing on people of this planet. Take care of this planet by all the responsible authorities and leaders alike. It is not late now.
I totally noticed the day getting longer. Now I know why.
By .6 microsec 😂
@@Spickydarrel .06* 😅
405 square miles of available water for the sun to evaporate into clouds, then massive flooding
The increase in freshwater is causing a rise in migratory birds, which has become a cause of aviation safety accidents.
What about now? Ironically, this dam supposed to prevent a flooding
It controls flooding.
@@SpynCycle57 it controls flooding, when there is no flood. 😄
@@tvsettv It moved the floods from downstream to upstream.
@@SpynCycle57 😄
@@tvsettv This dam is a comprehensive success, and over the past decade, all residents along the way have felt the economic and environmental benefits it has brought. Except for those who had to leave their homes at the beginning, everything in this video is bullshit, fake news sent by some anti China groups. Don't you think 'the dam caused the flood' is an illogical statement? In fact, the Yangtze River has always been a dangerous river, and it is very, very long, so there will always be floods in a certain section of this river every year. In the eyes of Western media, they cannot see the dam reducing the disaster score from 100% to 15%, but believe that the dam caused these 15% disasters and deliberately smear the dam😅. Talk to any Chinese living in that area, and you will get the truth.
I just liked this video because of such big dam. I know earth and its circles better. Thank You
Anyone believe it impacts earth’s rotation is not an engineer, heck probably didn’t graduate high school
42 billion tons is actually the same as lake mead at full capacity. I don't think this really takes everything into account.
Now we can blame the dam for our overweight 🤣🤣🤣
Yes, you are always right.
Hmm...scientific bullshit
The hula hoop part was great
I’m seeing some funky concrete deformations
Build it a mile in the sky stop the earth spinning then maybe we will know why it feels like to stand still 🤨
Versus the deaths yearly from the floods it is an acceptable “disaster”
Hamburgers are slowing the Earth's rotation.
First time I have ever heard concrete measured in gallons???
I got one more excuse for my big fat belly : Three Gorges Dam
I came here from digraj sir geographie's marathon video of class 10😅😅
“Idk what else to call it if it isn’t a disaster.”
- Shows fatty with a hula hoop
I read that the earth's crust may not be able to support the great weight of the water.
37billion.. here in greece the metro costs 3billion for just 10km distance 😂
The earth rotation is faster in the last 6 years
And I thought I was eating too much…..
Then the "Pacific ocean" will laugh at itself
no thank you for whooshy noise and sound effects
When the first minute and a half of a 5 min video is junk, then it isnt worth wtaching the rest to see if that is also junk
Ugh the Three Gorges Dam made me fat!
The oceans are millions of time larger bodies of water.
that is one huge military target
I thought the earth was spinning faster nowadays….
The world is spinning from the beginning until today unchanged from it's normal rotation. We feel the time is faster not due to the Earth spinning faster but because of what we have today with all the tech gadgets ..... all lead to a full of Self Entertainments where we are so busy with our lives enjoying it ..... Was Apps. Facebook, TH-cam, Games, TikTok, Instegram .... etc. Almost everyone in the world are so absorb to their Hand Phone .... Everywhere ... The one that is FAR AWAY is so near to you and the one near you is so FAR AWAY. Everybody is in their own world ...... unnoticing when the times passed by.
The scientific evidence suggests for a person lives up to 100 years old he/she would have experienced a total 2.19 second slowing down if he/she keeps a digital watch to record it on the day he/she was born.
It only slows down the earth rotation by 0.06 microseconds
🔴 after this was built in China let's look at the flooding in China in 2023 and the catastrophic results ❓ ❓❓, my scientific analytical experiments, in conjunction with Stanford University concurred the fact that the man-made lake 255,000 square miles, affected the Earth's rotation and it's axis, David Staudohar USMC USN SS USCG PHD MBA MSB MA BA ret ‼️
That damn dam makes me weight more. 🤣
SO INTERESTING, THANK YOU SO MUCH, IT WILL HELP A LOT IN MY GEOGRAPHY REVISION😁
Uttarakhand. Of. India. Suffers. From. Earthquake. And. Underground. Water. Blast. Risky. In. Life.
As soon as I see NASA mentioned...I must move away from any facts you shared with us.
Then explain why my days are passing fast, both days and nights 😂 But a bigger issue in regards to dams is the Ethiopian dam which is reducing the flow of Nile
You don't get the point the earth is a massive planet as compared to the dams built so the moment of inertia will not affect the fucking planets rotation.
it effected the rotation by .06 milliseconds. How much effect has the loss of the Aral Sea had on the earth rotation? it was only the 4th biggest land locked body of water on earth prior to 1960.
Don't credit China the power to stop the earth rotation, ...
so, miniscule alien missiles could technically also be stop by China?? Hear how absurd your take on the Yangtze River Hydro Power Project is ?
The bouncing bombs would have a field day. But the poor people down stream wouldnt.
what about pacific ocean, if this small dam can slow down earth rotation
Very interesting
What about the poor fishes
1st comment....love from nepal
Shall I say Dam or Daamn 😂
You all crickets now?🤨
News Flash, it rains ea day more than the total mass of the Dam and what's stored
So No, not even close, next??
It can power 15 nuclear power plants?! Lol
It more dams means opposite direction😁😁😁😁😁
Whole video could of be done in 3 minutes with what was title of video. Plus it has no scientific evidence proving point.
So facts aren't good enough for you, we all know your type😂
It is wonder how smart people can be stupid at the same time
The earth does not rotate
So we are good there
Do you how many things have changed the earths orbit in the last 20 uears😂😂😂
So what the hell does the Hoover Dam do who built the Hoover Dam I don't know a damn thing about it
A Chrysler big block Hemi will do the same.
On the back of an elephant.
Jorge in China? Those damn Mexicans be everywhere
Good information until the end.
Then it just calls it a disaster because its chinese. If it was an American project they would have praised it as a saving grace.
Probably one of the greatest Feats of engineering in this world. China proved hydro electric works. America still 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 holding onto fossil fuels til we flounder.
. What happens when it fails.
So just because the dam was constructed by the Chinese its a disaster? Come on! You can do better
It will change again when it cracks.
You never mentioned how much it less than 0.02 sec it has absolutely no effect in the lifetime of earth even without the dam the earth rotation is slowing down some models predict it will stop in a million years china's dam has fastened it by about 10 yrs I guess 'wow they created a disaster'🤦♂️
You can be certain that there is another (nefarious) reason for building the dam.
good video
This is what happens when you 🤔 you're bigger than the Creator.
Not a word of truth to this post.
THE DAMN DID NOTHING TO AFFECT THE WORLDS ROTATION!!! GOD HAS DONE THIS!!! MATTHEW 24!!!
Silly
No it global warming sea levels have risen by.00001%
Every time there's a huge earthquake, there are always headlines about the effect it had on the Earth's rotation.
"Massive Earthquake Slowed Earth's Rotation!"
Like this video, those headlines say less about the effect these things have on the planet and more about our impressive ability to calculate extremely tiny and practically meaningless changes to Earth's rotation.
The real headline should be about how amazing physics is and how it allows us to calculate such incredibly small changes.
Moral of the story eat less
