I live minutes from these cliffs and walk along the tops and beach regularly. The area in the video is known as 'Birling Gap', with the old lighthouse at the top of the cliffs known as 'Belle Tout'. The whole lighthouse building was picked up and moved back from the eroding cliff edge when I was a kid (I'm 37 now). Also at the top of the steps down to the beach the row of houses used to have 2 or 3 more homes on the end, but the sea has claimed them one by one! As others have said, Dover is quite a long way east of here, but the cliffs do look very similar! Worth a trip to Dover if you can, as there's a castle on top of the cliffs with a World War 2 bunker underneath and tunnels running through the cliffs (including a balcony which pops out halfway to give a great view across to France). Hope you enjoy the rest of your time in the UK!
That was indeed a small shark. Often called a ‘dogfish’ in the UK.
Great video Chris.I got to see some of England while there in 82 and 83 working the night shift at Mildenhall UK.I swear i caught a dogfish just like this one in Galveston TX. in the arly 70s.
It's a small smooth hound
Yep. This guy is right.
I was about to (guess) say that too
A pickie dog in Ireland.
Hard to believe that it looked just like that 80 years ago but with battles going on above and people dying.
The horizontal bands of dark-colored flint is composed of the remains of sea sponges and siliceous planktonic micro-organisms that hardened into the microscopic quartz crystals.
Wow! Thank you for that. I wonder how many years passed between the layers. So interesting.
Hello Chris very beautiful cliffs and scenery England is such nice place with a lot of history 😊👍👍
Dover is about 70 miles further east from Seven Sisters ! However , they're formed around the same time and SS is considered the more beautiful and dazzling (as in whiter), and indeed have been used in films to substitute for the white cliffs of Dover.
Kudos to you Chris. Your'e going places I will never get to go. Best of luck during your journeys.
Fab video. I’m in the NorthEast of England. Some lovely coastlines here. 💗
WOW I live in England and still have not visited THE WHITE CLIFFS OF DOVER ....Thanks mobile hoping you have enjoyed your time in the UK X
4:49 Imagine climbing somethingsimilar to that with machine gun fire as was done during WWII.
that poor guy dead on the beach was a Dogfish. and yes the sheep markings are for easy identification. love watching your travels in England, i live about half a mile from the last residence of Amy Winehouse that you recently visited. happy travels friend
I enjoyed it immensely. Never before have I seen the close ups like that. Wow. Just like I was there. Thank you for being such a good tour guide. Can't wait for the next one. Any plans on going to Ireland, Scotland or Wales?
The Seven Sisters area at the White Cliffs of Dover. Thank you for showing this area.
Beautiful drone shots. I hope you are visiting the Jurassic Coast. The cliffs are so interesting there and it's a world heritage site.
Thanks for sharing this! What an exciting trip this was for you!! So Beautiful… I’ve never been to England, but have been to France and Italy while growing up in Austria. Thanks again!
hi chris, glad you're enjoying being in the uk. i think the "shark" is a dogfish, but don't hold me to it ok ? i hope you enjoy the rest of your adventures over here as much as we enjoy watching them.
@Lunatic Fringe hi LF, thank you for putting me right, i was almost there. lol
@Lunatic Fringe hi LF, that must be awful for you, to know what you want to make a career of, then have to change all your plans because of a disability. i used to keep tropical fish, not quite the same i know, i had 7 tanks ranging from 2ft to 4ft. i think my parents were glad when i moved out lol. i didn't know there were sharks that walked on land, i live on the south coast about 3 mins from the beach. i'm gonna get myself some reinforced socks.
It's a smooth hound
@@Cornet_Tooter that's ok, as long as it's not a hound dog because i'm definitely not volunteering to take it walkies or swimmies whichever the case may be
Thank you for taking us; much appreciated! God bless….🌝
Thanks for sharing. The cliffs are beautiful.
Yes in fact friends that live over there say its a dogfish...type of shark...cool vid bro
I'm from Philippines 🇵🇭 and I really loved your all vedios I really enjoy watching it❤❤❤
That was awesome . Thanks Greetings from Edmonton Canada
TFS 💙 the beautiful scenery.
I probably won’t make it there in my lifetime. Thank you for the video.
They’re amazing!!! I’ve never seen anything like that before. This is why I enjoy your channel so much. You post different things but they’re always interesting or cool. Thanks for another great video 💯
Chris, you'll have to move to England for a while so we can see all of England 🙃
Great video! Absolutely breathtaking scenery. My sister recently migrated to England, hoping one day I will make the trip and experience this beautiful country!
And this is what I found on Google around painted sheep and it appears there are several reasons and it all depends from farm to farm:
a. Once an ewe has lambed, at turnout she and her lamb(s) get the same colour sprayed on their side. If they end up separated, the shepherd is able to match them up again and that helps in reducing the risks of mismothering or lamb death by exposure.
b. Some milking farms will mark the ones not producing enough or cannot breed.
c. But if there are some ewes in a flock that have the same colour on their buttox, that usually means they have been jumped on or mated by a ram that has the same colour marker on his underside.
c. Lastly, it also could be as you said the marking the ownership. Some farms will buy from local auctions, and they are marked at that time.
It's so BEAUTIFUL & a rare opportunity to see. Thank ~ You for the journey!
That was awesome thanks so much for showing us and doing that
What a lovely day you had for your walk along the Sussex chalk downs? Beautiful! Even I was confused - I've been to Dover & it doesn't look like this, but I've seen movies & the White Cliffs are utterly iconic! Thing is, in most of the films the cliffs we see are the wonderful white Chalk cliffs of the Seven Sisters, not the rather dirty cliffs & the town & port of Dover! Seven Sisters cliffs are chalk with some flint - that black rock you picked up which the ancients used for tools. These cliffs are between Brighton & Eastbourne about 80-miles west of Dover. Hopefully you'll get to Brighton as I see they just spent a fortune restoring the Pavilion, & as you are only about an hour away you really can't miss it - you honestly can't!! There are walls painted with gold & platinum & chandeliers to blow your socks off! Happy travels - keep going, you're only scratching the surface (of England!).
Thank you Chris!!!! Absolutely beautiful!!
VERY COOL.ITS A SAND SHARK..MAKE FISH N CHIPS..GREAT VIDEO..SAFE TRAVELS
WOW so beatiful breath taking WOW
Thank you for shareing. WOW that sky , i do not why you shared !! I so glad you did. , i needed this seeing so much ugly , hearing hate talk feeling so consumed , its like i can not breath , this was a breath of fresh air
Thank you for this wonderful video. I couldn’t find many of them. Would one day love to see these cliffs, so many stories about them ❤
Thanks, it was a nice short tour.
Thanks for letting me tag along.
You are a True Blue Faran Chris! God Bless Ya.. 👍
the paint on the sheep and lambs is to match the lambs with the ewes. they also attach paint to the rams so they know when a ewe has been served, differnt colours usually mean different thing.
Yep, I've seen this, a ewe numbered (say) 43 and then 2 lambs following her round with the same number, while a bit further along you have ewe + lamb #37 etc
I’ve never been to the White Cliffs of Dover, but I’ve seen a lot of pics and videos of them. Thanks for the close-up video of them. Beautiful!!!
It's so beautiful.
Absolutely breathtaking. Thanks for bringing this to us along with the rest of your England videos.
Can't believe you're in England!
Hope you're coming to Ireland next ☘️🇮🇪♥️
Great Coverage
🎊👌🇮🇳🎊👌
23 miles brother, france is 23 miles away from the cliffs.great video as usual. I love all your videos
😮 very impressive. From USA 🇺🇸
Makes me remember the Eric Johnson song.
OMG that's a beautiful place
To me it looks like an earthquake could have happened and some land broke off into the ocean. Also I'm pretty sure that was a baby shark. Thankyou for sharing your beautiful video.
Stunning!
Looked like a shark to me. Great whites have been showing up in those waters. Beautiful location.🦈
Amazing!
" There'll be blue birds over the white cliffs of Dover"
Great video Chris! A place I want to visit myself. If you make it as far north as Aberdeen give me a shout!
They put paint on the males underside I believe so that they know which ones have mated.
My uncle used to tell me something about some pilots coming back from somewhere who "knew they were safe when they saw the "White Cliffs of Dover". Anyone know what that was? I think it was war-related...he was a big military history buff with stuff like that.
During World War II
@@brandyjean7015 That's right. There was also a much loved wartime song by Vera Lynn (who used to entertain the troops, at home and overseas) called The White Cliffs of Dover.
Edited to add that Glenn Miller's plane went down in the English Channel, when he was on his way to France to entertain the troops. If Chris gets a chance, I would recommend that he visits the old airbase at Bedford (Twinwood) where Glenn Miller took off from. There is a festival there every August Bank Holiday with all of the old vehicles, Billets, as well as Glenn Miller's nephew and his band to transport you back to the 1940s.
@@LestWeForget-LestWeForget WWII was my parents' era but I enjoyed the Vera Lynn song and played it quite a lot. "There'll be bluebirds over the white cliffs of Dover, tomorrow just you wait and see." I thought that meant birds until one day my mom said the British war planes were called bluebirds. So it meant the men coming home. Made the song more poignant.
@@debbeb4499 My parents, too. Love the music of that era.
Amazing historic place! I’m thrilled to have been able to see it Chris🌟Thank you!! 🙏🏻
The rock you picked up looked like a piece of flint. I would have kept it.
love that you are on my home turf, wish i could get the chance to meet ya
I love the construction of the True Ancients!
Love it! Thank you!
Should go to the beachy head in Eastbourne becareful not to get so close to the edge. It's a lovely view especially a lovely day can see a lighthouse
Hi Chris absolutely brilliant coverage, really enjoyable many thanks for sharing 👊👍🇬🇧🇺🇸
That's a good video Chris, thanks.
Amazing
The cliffs… of insanity!!
Great video Chris, although the Seven Sisters aren't the same as the White Cliffs of Dover! The Seven Sisters are in East Sussex, while the White Cliffs are further east in Dover in Kent. Although they look pretty similar!
There are still miles of tunnels inside the cliffs , from Ww1 and later ww2 There are TH-cam vids showing inside the tunnels . I believe SUBEX has some of the best footage and he’s also very knowledgeable
This makes me homesick
Chris, don't know if you know, but to most Brits the white cliffs of Dover have a very special emotional significance...... one of the closest points to our old and traditional ennemies, France of course. But leaving joking aside, they symbolise the soul of the British..
Go to Cornwall loads of 🏄♀️ there beautiful place x lands end
those are amazing!!! I wonder how many people have jumped to there deaths or fell off the cliffs. Can you imagine the water being as high as the top of the cliffs also.
Not far away is the famous cliff at Beachy Head, the highest point on the south coast of England at 530 feet - favourite suicide spot.
Wow
Aww showing our pretty side lol.
Come to Newcastle! 🏴
Thanks , I would call it the ocean.
The English Channel..the busiest shipping lane in the world
This isn’t Dover, that’s a bit further along the coast! This is Burling Gap in East Sussex
1:33 bruh tf there is a human chicken
TH U! 😮😀😀😀😀!
The spiny dogfish, spurdog, mud shark or piked dogfish, is one of the best known species of the Squalidae family of sharks, which is part of the Squaliformes order. While these common names may apply to several species, Squalus acanthias is distinguished by two spines and no anal fin.
also the tags in the ears prove ownership
Not flying over , thumbnail looks like Severn sisters between Eastbourne and newhaven
Seven Sisters is not Dover. But you were right about the sheep. It is indeed a sign of ownership.
👍👍
Just a matter of time before the taggers climb the cliffs {sigh}
very rare to see sharks in the english channel
Base jumping anyone?
Ahh welcome to the old world, you got Dublin, Cardiff, London, Brussels, Paris and Amsterdam all a stones throw away from Dover!
Did you see any bluebirds? 🙂
On the edge of my England pretty A
Yeah you are right oceans are going away globally. Philadelphia USA
👍✌
Das ist nicht in Dover, sondern in Sussex! Absolut bezaubernd!!
4500yrs
Yes it's a sand shark or dog fish still in the shark family
A French-brand wine bottle with an English label, definitely not from France.
1:26 very chalky looking? Guess why? 😂😂😂
Did I miss it or how did they formed?
Chalk is formed from an ancient seabed. Chalk forms from the fragments, of the skeletons of Coccoliths (marine algae, which floated in the surface waters to absorb the sunlight). When the algae die, they sink to the bottom and form a white mud. The mud then gets compressed and compacted over millions of years. Forming chalk. As video is layers were laid down in the Cretaceous period 145.5 to 66 million years ago.
Ba-by shark do do do do do do…
They don't understand strangers. Don't feel offended, they are just opinionated sheep.
Sad to see animals with spray paint on them even if it’s for identification.
