Interesting topic. Thanks! One note: Hawaii is not formed by forces at a plate boundary. It's islands are a result of a stationary hot spot under the moving Pacific plate above.
Correct
Exactly! the big island is sitting on top of a hot spot!
I couldn't understand how anyone could have screwed it up this bad, especially when it's common knowledge Hawaii is smack in the *middle* of the Pacific plate. I've noticed when he gets his facts wrong he really gets them wrong...
@@sgdeluxedoc Yup. lol He usually does great but when he misses one it's typically a doozy.
You have the same thing occuring from the pumping of oil.
The chockstone at Kjeragbolten is not sandstone but granite as is the massive Pulpit Rock, which is on the other side of Lysefjord.
Ok, but how did my local mechanic's crack not make it on the list?
It's worth adding.
"god-damit it fu_k'n stinks in here!"
Anyone else old enough to remember the 1965 Sci-Fi movie "The Crack In The World"?
One of my guilty pleasures. I went to see it in our local movie house when it came out, and have tried to catch it on tv ever since.
I saw that movie in high school.
Beautiful. Thank you.
I live in Northen Europe's Scandinavian cold Pohjola, here is beautiful nature with forests, thousands of lakes and high hills in Lapland. I've visited in Lapland and Norway on this year's july, Norway is our beautiful country with an arctic sea and high AMAZING snowy mountains with cool waterfalls. When I was in Norway there I have feel I am really small human in this BIG world. Next time when I'll visit in Norway I will visit to see that crack rock between mountains it looks awesome place with beautiful view of mountains. By the way I believe there is most wided cracks in Africa the center of Earth. I really love living here in Scandinavian Finland where's no much of earthquakes and cracks. 🌍🏞🌊🏔🇧🇻🇫🇮
Finland is not in Scandinavia
Thanks, Top Fives.
I snorkeled that crack in Iceland. So clear it feels like you are flying.
"I snorkeld that crack", just doesn't sound right.😅
I'm surprized she didn't slap the shit outa ya !
@@justinspicyrhino3075 Sounds like a confession you make to your best friend after spending a drunken weekend in Las Vegas. 😂
"Crack in the Ground" is really cool. It's apart of the Newberry Caldera. From a distance, you can't really see it. Most of the area is open and flat. A formation I was told called Fort Rock is about the only natural feature that can be seen from many miles off. Christmas Valley is a really pretty area, to me.
been there back in 98..
I use to go up there every year for a small bike rally and poker run. Often, the best 5 days on tour I would have. Rather chill spot to be.
Fort Rock. Old cinder cone open at the Southeastern edge due to erosion caused by wave action of ancient inland sea. Wind-driven waves were predominantly heading Northwest. There are wave-cut terraces on the edges of the formation. 10,000 year old human artifacts, sagebrush sandals, were found in a cave there.
@@jamespppyacek342 I never knew that. The geology there is impressive. I still have friends in Chrismas Valley. The whole area there is an amateur geologist dream, especially someone who is so curious about volcanos
Interesting topic, Love it!
Thanks sir
Didn't know bout these thanks!interesting
The Rio Grande river valley running through New Mexico is a large rift valley as well.
TY very interesting 🧐 📚📚📚
amazing how you ramble off the foreign names with ease- that i would never attept🤔🙂👍
Amazing
Correction… the Hawaiian islands are the product of a stable “hot spot” which the pacific plate is moving over, not a juncture off tectonic plates.
I'm always impressed with your facile pronunciation of other languages: you evidently research and practice!
Thank you. 😊I try and research some of the harder words (specifically those pesky Icelandic words). But apparently, some people in the comments don't like my pronunciation of "Fissure". 😅
@@ChrisKane- after consulting several dictionaries including Websters, Cambridge and Oxford, there is no "fizz" in "fissure", go "fish" elsewhere.
On the other hand, I do admire the effort you have gone too to get a lot of the other pronunciations correct.
🤔 seems that you don’t know much about those languages? As a native speaker it’s even difficult to understand what he’s talking about because of that poor pronunciation 🤷♀️ just imagining a heavy American accent (not even English) helps to get it 😉
@@anneli1735 Yeah I guess not knowing every language is really hurting my efforts.
@@ChrisKane- Sounded like you did not pronounce "Fissure" but Fishez. But no problem. USA is closer to Russia than England and there they sort of slide their words together when in sentence. Pronounciation is just a part of the full production and just like gymnastics you gain top marks for the production (Participation). A little missed accuraccy was not a fall from the gym bar or a tumble on Ice Skates during Olympic figure skating. So not a fail and so your scoring is still high. My guess is only an Icelandian is going to get 100% (Full Marks 100/100). But then I can see Statler and Waldorf (Muppet characters) saying from their viewing box. 'What did the narrator say? 'I don't know, but I could not repeat it'', Most likely it was pronounced the Oregan way, East of Japan. So really your overall score is still 9.9 which whilst the Icelantics may pronounce their own nouns much better the rest would likly reduce their overall score to less than perfect and less than 9.9. But both would score high for their over all procuction. So no big deal.
Those are some big cracks. It looks like Iceland is the clear winner in regards to cracks! I wonder if Greenland has any?
Greenland is west of the mid Atlantic ridge. Although there might be cracks we can see under the glaciers.
"Le Puits d'Enfer" in France does NOT mean "The Pit of Hell". It means "The Well of Hell". (as in, a "well" that you drop a bucket into to get water).
This is so cool 😎
Videos like this always leave me wishing they'd finish with a troll, like, "Number 1: Your mom's."
They leave that to the comment section. 😂
Hey! I think you sold the African Rift short in that the rift continues through the Red Sea into Gulf of Aqaba. From here it enters the Dead Sea valley then the Jordan River up to Anatolia. So, flip #1 to #2 and vice versa and you should be good. 😊
This is really great -- thank you. But please note, 'fissure' is logically pronounced like 'fisher', rhyming with 'disher' or 'wisher'.
"..visitors should avoid standing directly above the well..." LOL
Ireland’s limestone western coast is replete with erosional features including large cracks, fissures, “show-caves”, bridges, caverns, grottoes and even miles wide fissured pavements.
Do a video on THEM.
Wow...🥰🥰🥰
Well written narration!
So…”popular local bathing spot” edges out “African continent splitting apart” for #1. Got it.
Just to keep things straight in the media, "Mono" as in Mono Lake, is pronounced "moan-o".
Fizzures?
The place name pronunciations are excellent. Well done.
Sounds like Mr sheen
The “Puits d’Enfer” is located in the Vendèe Region - not Aveyron !
7:16 This is a crack in the Rift Valley which is about 10 km wide - it is not THE rift valley…
16:15 Just a crack in the rift , not the plate boundary’s…
I was expecting to see my plumber in this list.
Rate of just about everything I recommend consultation with native inhabitants if you take something off the plate you would have to put something back
I was hoping to see the Continental Divide that is between BC and Alberta, Canada. Radium, BC is a good place to see the crack.
Oh yes! Sinclair Canyon is breathtaking, and I always stop and take pictures and walk through it when I'm traveling through. I also really like the hot springs at Radium, but I miss the Lodge on the hillside. I spent many nice evenings at the Lodge and had many fine meals decades ago. (--an Idaho traveler.)
Am I the only one who saw the title and seriously hoped he'd randomly throw in a pic of some randos plumber's butt? Just for laughs
What do I have to show you up and tell you what the biggest crack on earth is ? How about the Atlantic and Pacific ocean ! Once upon a time long long long long long long time ago all land mass was all together then eons later it began to break up thus developing cracks ........... Need I go on ....... Thank you all for your attention ! 😁
Silly boy.
What could possibly go wrong when you walk in the bottom of a crack in the ground?
Howoldare: My thoughts EXACTLY... if they can move apart... they can move back together. 😳
Crackula lurks in the dim coolness.
Heard my x was starring in this.
Hey! Sto walking in Earth Mother's cracks and stretch me marks! 😳
😁
I think Valley De Molina was used in one of those "Life After Humans" videos
I need a new bum for Christmas, mine has a crack in 😅
Lizzo
and a hole
What can be worse in many cases is having your crack filled.
@@vanhattfield8292 Then he'd be Phil McCracken?
Why didn't you include Ouimet Canyon in northwestern Ontario, Canada?
Oregonians: what should we name this crack in the ground??
Um, how about “Crack-in-the-Ground”?
Done.
At 3:08 a "face" appeared in the rocks as they talked about the Iceland myth of the young boy. (Center, about half way down the clift.) Does anyone else see it?
The Green mossy rock face. Okay. Saw it.
Totally expected someone's mom to make this list
Hail to the no, no, no to that Norwegian couple standing on that rock between the cliffs. Looks like a potential 127 Hours situation...expect whole bodies are about to get crushed, or trampled...or just straight up flattened by gravity. 👎
Wow...all these large cracks, and my first wife isn't even on this list....🤪
Map: "a symbolic representation of selected characteristics of a place, usually drawn on a flat surface" . . . Maps are kind of nice to have in these kinds of videos. Otherwise, Good Job 🙂

What about the Mariana Trench?
It be gonna into separation to forme new Island like Australia ?
The entire African rift valley is a continent long, hundreds of miles wide at points, crack in the earth.
That is by far number 1 in my book.
LOF earthquake we had a 7.1 Alaska
How stunningly long and beautiful do you keep your hair? I adore woman who grow theirs that way, describe it please?
Can the government please stop all this irrigating for livestock feed, subsidized crops and exported crops? Also put a distance tax on items and solve a lot of problems.
They might be coming right on back pretty soon.
Why is the Fish River canyon not featured? The blow hole makes no sense
You can imagine the Earth without water, as water balances the shape of the Earth, its rotation around itself, and around the sun. Tides are considered a safety valve for the Earth and its rotation.
As the water melts, the Earth slows down its rotation.
Water has increased due to the melting of the ice caps in the poles and the Himalayas, and thus, the rotational force also increases...
Now: The length of the year now is [365 1/4 +_(2 minutes)]...

Every morning Dave wakes up at the crack of Dawn.
The cracks eventually will meet . What is the shifted trajectory of displacement? In order for that to go on, other situations also shifted
What? No lake Baikal?
The Shkozyan cave in Slovenia is pronounced that way, where tz is just like in the word pizza.
Instead of being stuck in Iceland, how about naming the Big Ones. The Anatolian Fault, The Great Glen Fault, the one running through the front range of Colorado (and passes through the Dike to the Horsetooth Reservoir). OH! and the San Andreas Fault. Some in this video aren't cracks at all. A hole on the Coast? Hawaii?
The SA fault is a strike slip fault, not a crack. Actually ... they're all 'faults' you're talking about. Not cracks. This is a crack focused video.
Your AI narrator really choked on those nordic place names LMAO! 😂
I blame the Saudis for pumping Arizona dry for their alfalfa for their horses that they're going to ship to Saudi Arabia and they got that water super cheap.
08:23 Hard to believe this is on our planet, it looks like the surface of some far away alien world.
So, there's no undersea crack worth mentioning?
🌞💪
Gods creation never fails to be mind boggling. Humans never fails to be somewhat insane when approach challenging places that is life threatening. But i still wonder why the crack of the Victoria Falls in the Zambezi River hasn't got a place in this channel.
Marianas Trench?
I love how all of the people commenting are "such genius minded" people everyone thinks they are so damn smart tell you what if yall so damn smart how bout yell start your own TH-cam channels since you all have such accurate knowledge gafl
Abstract :
The energy that dominates the earth is very great, some of it is natural, like the heat of the sun and volcanoes, and some of it is human action, by cutting down trees, without replacing them and cultivating in their place...
There are five forces that control or dominate the planet...
1- The first theory (horizontal dynamic movement) and its end...
The occurrence of storms, rain, floods and snow, at unexpected times and places, is because of the expiration of this theory, which needs to be balanced...
2- The second theory (vertical dynamic movement) and its end...
This movement or force controls or dominates the earthquakes, earth cracks, drying up of rivers and lakes, earth openings, mountain collapses, and the emergence of drinking water springs on the ground...
It becomes out of control...
These phenomena increased due to the end of this theory...
The third theory: it is water that rotates the earth...
The fourth theory: the Earth's axis of rotation has tilted 2° degrees...
The fifth theory: The Earth has a new orbit...

Kjersgsbolten boulder obviously does NOT weight several hundred tons.
Just to be completely correct, the Oregon crack is not in Central Oregon. Christmas Valley is considered Eastern , Oregon! Cool! 😎😎
So many faces made of stone in Silfrà
"Mono" is pronounced like "moe-noe," not "maw-noe."
Faults are not formed by erosion.
i was wondering if anyone thinks the voice of the narrator is a bit strange is that a real person or a computer ???
Once again Western Canada 🇨🇦 was not included in this video. There is the Tintina Trench, 3 continental divids on the drive up the Dempster Highway in the Yukon. The Columbia Icefields in British Columbia.
I knew before you said it. “Tater Hill” had to be in America. 😂
Hmmm.. I am surprised the Grand canyon wasn't even on this list, as it might be the biggest crack in the earth...
Is it though? No, it is not. It's the river eroding the sediment away. And that does not a crack make.
Insert crack meme jokes here
Are you a lady with stunningly long and beautiful hair? I adore woman who grow theirs that way, describe it please?
@@danielobrien1571wtf?
@@justinspicyrhino3075 I was complementing them on their profile picture, wondering if they were a female with longer hair. I admire woman who grow theirs luxurious lengths and find it beautiful.
"Are you a crack with long and luxurious hair?"
@@ronanzann4851 I was complementing them on the profile picture, wondering if they were female with longer hair. I admire woman who grow theirs luxurious lengths and I find it beautiful.
Which doesn't mean the PLANET is going to SPLIT in HALF it just means these cracks a going to cave in filling the holes over thousands if not millions of years meanwhile leaving or creating more holes like sinkholes where ever these cracks are
Atlantic ocean?
Do you even watch these videos before you upload them anymore? Like for real get it together top five
Widest crack in the world? Kim K?
The Arizona crack, how many kilometers is 2miles
were you able to google it or use a calculator or do you still need someone to provide you with the answer?
The occurrence of stoms,rains,ice, and floods at times and in unexpected places,confirms my theory the end of the (dynamic horizontal movement )which needs to balance and it sill under control to balance...
But about earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, sinkholes, tsunami, dry lakes and rivers, flow of water from the mountains and hills,explodeand of eyes water from the ground, formation of new mountains or islands, collaps of mountains ,and cracks on ground,& ,& ,&,they are out of control or balance...
Note :The earth will become like Venus...

Hey mr narrator, i hear ther bigger crack on uranus huh ! 🙄
They forgot to include my ex... 😂
Yo
They missed one. Karrie Carmichael.
That’s your mom ?
Every thing reminds me of her😢
