- Spectacular rock columns are on display throughout the deserts of eastern Washington. How do these crazy stone pillars form? How old are they?

I came here willingly. I searched this

Here's the answer I discovered 3cweeks ago. Part one!

I have loved columnar basalt ever since a childhood field trip. I will enjoy it even more now that I better understand how it was formed. Thank you!

Thanks for clearing my doubts about these rocks
RIP Nick's hammer
Someone found it a few years later!
Great job mate.
Thanks Guy!
I’m making this in Minecraft because of the nether update adding basalt and blackstone
I’m wondering if the ‘pinch & swell’ columns were nearly solidified and a major seismic event occurred nearby sending shockwaves through the nearly solidified rock creating the ‘pinch & swell’ within. Kind of like an earthquake wave frozen in time.
I kind of agree with your hypothesis. An earthquake at the right moment may have resulted in the crinkle cut columns, assuming the basaltic lava was at the right temperature to hold that shape as it finished solidifying. The conditions would've had to be absolutely perfect for this to work. If not, then maybe further erosion over time is the reason for the crinkle cut columnar basalt. I'm leaning more towards further erosion after the columns were exposed.
These are on the shores of my original hometown in north-western Tasmania. Now I know a lot more about what was going on.
Is that where you, professor Nick, lost your rock hammer?
Are the "tootsie roll" segments as mysterious as the "crinkle cut" variations? Or are the segments produced by a known mechanic, and if so, what is it?
Hea Nick, any sign of the hammer?
Still down there!
I've got a magnet and some rope!
Ancient alien astronauts found it and returned to their home planet convinced Nick hammered the basalt pillars into the ground naming it Nicks Rocks On The Rocks :)
It seems kind of dangerous to climb on the sides or the top of some of those columns. Some don't seem to be well-anchored to the wall. I would be worried about some of the columns falling or tipping over.
Where exactly is it located?
Frenchman Coulee and Drumheller Channels. Use Google Maps to find.

ok

@@e-boy-marcus670 ok thank you very much for your comment i will try to check it out.
2:09: looks like Voronoi tiling.
Since this was filmed, have there been any progress made on solving this mystery?
Yes. I'm sharing now. This was discovered by me 3 weeks ago! Basalt columns are giant stemonitis fungi! th-cam.com/play/PLHfU_AjxzPBRpXdDthn4mVbJ2fQ_mAiKu.html
Part one. You're welcome!
Couple of those look like filled in fortress walls. Wonder if the could have been if fully excavated on one side.
Reminds me of a scene from trek, the one when they're about to meet Vyger..
Appears similar plant cells. Interesting indeed.
God bless
Thanks Mike. You too.
Love the music ehaa nephew culture sites this comes from a native American born in the usa
They are old trees!
About 40 miles away, in Vantage WA, there are large petrified trees along the river at Ginkgo Petrified Forest State Park.
Where's the magma slimes?
Magma Cubes aren't real. Basalt Deltas are real in a way, though...
Wow I didn’t know they added the basalt deltas to the overworld too
So where is the top layer that magically eroded away, and why did it not form hexagonaly thoughout the hole thing, top to bottom, its more belivable and amazing that they grew like this these are ancient plant cells, look at the center of all the sketches that he showed from all the first geologists, everyone of them has a round center, just like a plants cellular pattern. Look up ancient plant life
🌳 🤣
TREES THE END!
When the hammer hit the 6 sided column it sounds like dense rock which is to be expected. But when he hit the 5 sided column it sounded hollow.
As if lava dries like that. There should be so much more if basalt lava is to blame.
Hi Nick..I'm proud to say that I discovered the answer 3 weeks ago and here's part ones link in the comments section. It's entitled Devils Tower pt.1 All basalt columns are giant stemonitis. I have video proof.

@@shucksful Haha, thank you as I needed a chuckle.
@@SMHman666 LOL! Thank you, for subscribing! ✌👊
@@shucksful Haha, I wont be doing that but take care anyway.
Is there any actual scientific evidence/tests for this? Or is it purely conceptual theory?
Yes. Scientists have observed this in basaltic lava flows of known age in Hawaii and elsewhere.
@@keithkuder7879 please Google.
Lol you guys actually think lava created those solid columns? It's from actual trees. Don't be "ignorant" and look at the after math of a tree. It's identical....
that's biology my friend,
Nope.
They were deliberately carved bu trolls to create a mystery.
It's biological not geological.... Now let's think about that for a minute. It's a new frontier at the Mudfossil University and Tyson's Mudfossil Adventures✌️😉
Mudfossil is a fraud & a joke!!! 😂😂😂
Biology looks amazing.

Petrified GIANT tree stumps from millions of years ago.
come visit Washington, because these formations are miles wide, no tree is that big.
James Kelly petrified head?
This lava theories dont convince me
Go visit Iceland then say that.
That is not lava.
Excavate behind the hexagonal tubes... you will not find any more. Just dirt.
Right,it's cooled lava.
It's all Biology.

@@PhoenixWoodyIt is ALL volcanic rock. 😂
🤣🤣🤣 Fake History=His-story
wow we have these in our body. Tendons not volcanic, Biology not Geology
😂😂😂😂 No!!!!
these where Giants
not lava or so
look at Mudfossil Universety
have you been to eastern Washington? these Columns make up the entire bedrock.
Biological not geological.. it's a new frontier ✌️
Exactly!! Tendons
All rocks. Goodness but you guys are nuts! 😂
What if there was a large impact when Frenchman Coulee was Cooling? Shape perhaps recorded an incredible seismic event, and possibly these very shapes inspired polygonal walls?
