Very timely. People are setting 5g towers on fire.

A telecom built a cell tower on a building.
The tenants protested.
When the cell tower was finished, the tenants reported increased aches and illness.
The telecom responded: "Just you wait until we turn it on!"
That had the ring of Phoney symptoms 📉😎📈
Good that I have my RF + WiFi protection stones and essential oils.
@@JTA1961 under appreciated comment.
Tinfoil is cheap.
There was a case in the UK some years ago, where the middle-class commuters living in a rural village decided mobile phone towers cause cancer. So they disassembled the one on the edge of the village and mounted a guard to stop the telco rebuilding it. If poor inner-city kids had done it, the police would've shown up to crack their skulls within 20 minutes, but these folk got a TV interview. As the journalist walked up to them, their spokesman was front and centre, with his phone clamped to his ear. (He was probably bitching about bad coverage.)
Usually, we get the SCP foundation to deal with memetic hazards like this.
Holy shit, that's accurate.

Sounds like the good “doctor” was suffering from an advanced case of ‘Not In My Back Yard’.
NIMBY is a disease that has plagued people for centuries. Progress, whether good or bad, brings on NIMBYism. The generational change makes more things "nimby", people want freeways ... but not across their county. People fight truck stops, but want more consumer goods. Prisons, we all know that new prison should be in the next town, right. People infected with nimby "just know", but can not give a logical or reasonable reason for ( insert name of perceived danger here) being dangerous ... or is it inconvenient to their lifestyle.
Only way to solve this is to add another 100 solar panels there to counter the ''windmill effect''
I suspect she has been wealthy and privileged all her life.
She would like to think she is doing the world a favor. We should be grateful !!
I have heard of this before, in San Francisco. The mere suggestion of building new housing causes people to break out in hives there.
The reason those people get sick IS real ... but it only happens when those turbines make noise in the 27-28hz region, also called the 'ghost frequency', which is KNOWN to make people anxious, sick, when exposed .. Even the police uses this sound to manage riots in some countries... This also happens with AC-fans in buildings.
So it's definitely not with all Turbines; only a part of them, especially with certain windspeeds that generate infrasound in the turbine powerplant (unhearable humming)

I have lived with a windmill for 14 years and has effected me- it has saved me THOUSANDS of dollars in utility bills!

Ideas like these are called Basiliks. Information which can be only harmful. One glance at the Basilisk and you are harmed. There are more serious examples of Basilisks, but I'd rather not share them.. Great video though!
Wow, that was one hell of a rabbit hole you sent me down.
Another example is spiderman. He kills you
I thought those were called "Cognito-hazards"
@@maxwellhong5218 cognito hazard is like tissue to the Kleenex of the basilisk. One of the most famous cognito hazards is known as Roko's Basilisk, which does an effective job of elucidating it with a more concrete moral dilemma than is given in this video about Wind Turbine Syndrome. Because of the popularity of Roku's Basilisk, the term basilisk has become a slang term, and at least in my mind, the implication of moral imperative.
Other famous cognito hazards include:
The idea that you have threads growing under your skin
The film with Jim Carrey called The Truman Show
A number of SCP entries
But one could argue that our culture is rife with them. For instance, the fetishization of suburban lawns wastes labor and many resources while harming the local ecosystem, but the United States as a whole supports invasive grass and mostly through no actual legislation. There is no benefit to having a lawn outside of the influence of other maintainers of lawns.
I've heard it claimed that the IQ test is also a cognito hazard because it functions as a self fulfilling prophecy.
But these last two examples have wide acceptance and I'm not sure if the basilisk term is still appropriate.
we need some anti-basilisks
I have worked on these turbines for 7 years and have never been sick due to the turbines themselves. So when I seen this video, I was like "oh my gosh, another video about turbines making people sick". But I stayed and watched it and am genuinely happy to see someone explain it properly and not just say wind turbines bad.

My Tribe is investing in these things, cause Pine Ridge is "empty" (using non-native speak), and plenty of land and the companies actually willing to pay rent directly to the land owners.
Plus a lot of people think they're cute. It's weird
Cute?

@@Yingyanglord1 objects can be described cute!!! Look at Toyota Priuss or those BMW Smart cars !!! Lol
We drove out to Wyoming from Alabama in 2011 and my wife and kids had never seen a wind farm. I had driven through the night, so as the sun came up we were in western Kansas, and the first thing my wife saw when she woke up was hundreds of those giant turbines spinning away on the plains as far as she could see. She got excited and woke up the kids and they all thought they were so amazing.
I don't think they called them "cute", but they did think the wind farms were the coolest man made thing we saw on that trip. On the way back we visited the Black Hills area and Badlands NP, and we drove south through the Pine Ridge Reservation towards Nebraska.
At that time I don't remember seeing any in the reservation.
@@jamesbehrje4279 i understand objects can be called cute, I think the Fiat 500 and the Honda E are both cute, even more so than any Prius and BMW, but cute is not something I would attribute to a wind turbine lol maybe the one at 5:18, but its still a stretch for me

My biggest issue with wind mills is that they use up all the wind, ruining the childhood for thousands of children who only want to fly their kite.
Won't anybody think of the children????
Eventually we won't even have any air left to breathe... Damn our energy needs..

Pretty sure that's not how physics works, chief. But I'm sure you're only joking.

Oh it was a joke..haaa funny
I’ve worked inside of wind turbines for almost 3 years. They don’t make you sick.........
it should make you super human from all that gyroscopic alternator electromagnetic switching in ac current as you whistle behind it with your spanners and pliers and marlboro in your mouth..
@John R
WHEN HE GETS HIS MUTANT SUPERPOWER!
you wanna try building them offshore..100 metre towers.....you get seasick when you are in the hub....all that swaying around like being in a fkcuin washing machine
I'm surrounded. Wind turbines were built all around my rural home....when I moved here there were none. I can tell you this: I hate them. I hate living near them. I'm up right now 11pm and I can hear the one they built closest to my house...INSIDE my house. I moved here and built an energy-efficient 900 square foot strawbale house. It was my dream. I had found heaven in the peaceful, rural atmosphere. Now the horizons look dystopic....dotted with hundreds of giant white, spinning, noisy machines. It used to be just the sound of the birds and breeze in the trees....now I seldom have a single day without the noisy turbine, steadily strumming away...it's LOUD. They get tax breaks, meanwhile, my property taxes went up over 70% in one year after the turbines were built within sight of my house! Talk about insult to injury. Yes. I absolutely hate the #blattnerenergy turbines here in #millscountytexas I'm heartbroken and struggle with bitterness every day due to this situation.
When i see Windturbines i feel good. I know they replace a coal plant somewhere.
When i come by one i sometimes drive up to it, stare at it and ask it "Who's a good power plant" and it goes WOOSH WOOSH WOOSH.
I know of a famous person who talked to windmills. It didn't go well for him.
The thing with windturbines is, unless you have massive hydro-plants, you still need those coal plants to be around in case there is no wind, or too much wind (storms) and they need to turn the windmills off ortherwise the wind will damage them.
@@wybo2 And then there are solar panels to act as backup for wind turbines, when needed.
@@WWZenaDo oh, don't get me started on solar pannels! The moment in time that we need most electricity is when its dark outside (when people wake up/ have dinner + early office hours during the winter) and then solar pannels make NO energy at all.
Solar is a additional source at best, it can not be used as a base.
@@wybo2 indeed, most alternatively power sources are supplemental, though I think w can all agree that it's good to have those alternatives at all

You are so right. I was born in Uruguay in 1948 and I clearly remember seeing wind mills all over the country side to pump up water. In Villa Serrana ( departament of Lavalleja) every single cottage had a tiny mill to produce some electricity to run the few lights they have and maybe a fridge,nobody has complained of being sick back then. Now we have this amazing mills,taking us from burning fossil fuels to create energy and these millenniums started complaining that they are an "eye sore". Next thing we hear is that they create illnesses. I can give my honest opinion about these people,in two languages,but I don't want to be rude. After all, I being living in Canada for a life time and in here we are known to be very polite. I love your channel and your way to bring real issues in such a clear way.

The human being can be so suggestible. I'm nearly eighty and understand well the things I've retained that were simply because I was suggestible. Also, we project to one another all the time, probably unaware of it for the most part and it can have an effect.
Wind energy is the worst kind of ""clean"" energy
yeah decapitating birds and putting out an inconsistent power amount meaning they need to run a generator then getting torn down in 20 years so some asshole can build a new generator on it because it broke down all leading to a high carbon output due to the steel production cost of energy that needs replacement
but hey atleast its not solar
I think the bottom line is that misinformation is contagious and every single one of us are "carriers" in some way. You will never be correct about everything, but realizing that you may be mistaken is very hard for people to do. The best way to fight this disease is through humility; admitting that you are wrong when presented with facts rather than doubling down on your ideas.
Great video, as always!
It might sound like "alternate facts" talk.
But when people present something as "fact" and it goes against what I have observed, I am immediately suspicious if that is "fact" at all.
But just in case, for some events talked about as fact, I try to research, I then find often find counter arguments, with evidence, with different facts. In cases where I am certain, I once again feel like I was proved right in my perceiving unsubstantiated claims.
But I am still skeptical of both sides sometimes. So I ask in those cases, who is actually right?
To really know, sometimes you have to be an expert in the subject.
But between lack of consensus between even experts in some fields, and the inability to ever learn everything, even with infinite time as the encyclopedia grows faster then you can read it, to make it a short story. Being absolutely sure of the truth is impossible.
Is all information disinformation, or is there only one objective truth amoungst the millions of books and ways of thinking and none of them describe it in full anyway? And you just can't know which is which?
Humility isn't enough, put simply. Unless you believe nothing. If you must believe in something to get by in life, you will likely believe something that is wrong. For whatever definition of wrong we use.
If you understand that, then you are in the boat I feel I'm in, finding something to believe in, and yet everything is likely wrong, so the only way to believe in something, is to lie to myself. And I find that impossible, if I know what I believe is wrong and a lie, I am not actually believing it.
Agreed, I feel very sick when I'm strapped to one and left spinning for half a day :(
Oml 🤣
The story of how bias entered science and ruined it for the rest of us.
It's interesting how people don't like the viev of wind turbines. I mean i always thought they looked extremly cool in the fields.
It's like the windmills from the past but looking more modern. they kinda make you feel like you live in the future
Exactly. Coal/Gas plants look dystopian by comparison.
Honestly in Uruguay, I live a good 80-100km away from (what I think is) the field this was filmed in and let me tell you, there's nothing cooler than looking at the horizon at night and seeing 20-30 blinking red lights from these things
Maybe people prefer the subtle lines of a coal fired power plant?
I've got some in my near by hills and they make me feel like I'm in a Ghibli movie.
It's interesting how a trained scientist can STILL allow personal bias to affect their conclusions.
Needless to say, asking specifically for people who claim that wind turbines made them sick to come forward and be interviewed is what is known as a "skewed sample".
Funny how I seem to have many of these symptoms and the nearest wind turbine is about 200 Km away. Those turbines are sneaky! It couldn't possibly have anything to do with my age, right?
This video does make me sick. It makes me sick that someone who is (supposedly) educated would allow their own animus towards wind turbines to literally make people sick.
By the way I enjoyed the footage of the turbines. It seems very peaceful and it's nice to be able to look at wide open spaces, even if I can't go there in person. Thank you for this.
I know health care professionals who believe Trump over science regarding Covid-19. Get your head around that one. Ppl, at least some of them, are easily deceived.
It is mostly only in your mind. Most of these discomforts are things we usually learn to live with, but now that you have seen this video, it is harder to leave those thoughts alone. It is on par with saying to you "Whatever you do, do not think about pink elephants or purple toads." ;-)
"It's interesting how a trained scientist can STILL allow personal bias to affect their conclusions."
This is a phenomenon called the bias blind spot. Be careful, though - we need to ensure that malicious people don't use it to discredit scientific research in general. The approach to it can't be black and white, as black and white thinking is also problematic. Instead, good peer review, controls, and replication of results is how we need to fight this.
It's not like they were actually trying to do science. They had a cause to push and looked for things to back it up.
They also could have asked those who had an encounter with Jesus, Aliens or Supernatural Powers to come forward. I bet the numbers would not differ much.
So much of our first world society is represented by this story...
More society in the whole. It's humanity, really.
In Brazil's Northeast Region (one of the poorest areas in the country), nearly *90%* of their electricity is generated by wind power. There are no reports of wind turbine-related illness. I guess they have better things to do, such as working very hard to earn a living.
Nah its even worse in undeveloped nations.

Burn the forest down, just get these mosquitoes off of me.
I had some issues when I was on Holliday's with a wind turbine next to my apartment
But my issue was the obnoxious sound it made all day and especially all night that stopped me from sleeping
Eventually that poor sleep could lead to endocrine problems or exacerbate an underlying health condition due to affecting hormone production of the brain etc. Some of us are very sensitive to these things. People with genetic mutations particularly, who otherwise would never have known they had any genetic difference under normal circumstances.

Is wind energy really green though? Wouldnt be suprised if net carbon outbut barely breaks even after 15years and they stop working after 20
@@Doubledunk It depends of the cost of the materials, for example the carbon footprint made in the making of a solar panel is big enough that it pretty much evens out with the energy the panel will end creating so it is questionable if it is green.
Thus we have to ask ourselves if the making of the wind turbine is not on the same spot.
@@Doomroar that's why we need to adapt to it faster, it the economic of scale
Nuclear power: Chuchu motherfuckers!
outside my window, rather far away in the distance are a couple of wind turbines. to be honest, watching them turn gently, embedded in the rich fauna of the landscape really relaxes me. they symbolize energy , human progress and sustainability. the only symptoms they made manifest i could think of, is procrastination, as the hypnotizing turning often made me wander off into daydreams instead of working on uni stuff.
Thank you for reminding me of this disease.

Good that they be forced to confront reality.
@@RareEarthSeries ...sadly, it doesn't work. You cannot combat the bias blind spot with facts - it actually has an adverse effect in terms of addressing fallacious behavior.
@Rare Earth I take a sleeping pill that may or may not work. It helps me fall asleep, but I don't think it does that for a biological reason. NyQuil has real knockout drugs in it, but the pill I take probably doesn't. The reason the pill works is, in all likelihood, because of the placebo effect. It works because I expect it to work, and I expect it to work because of the placebo effect.
Turn this on its head. If someone believes in windmill sickness, they can know how it works and still be sick. They will get sick because that's what they expect, and even if they know why they are getting sick, they still expect to be sick.
@@MrDood-le8mn The placebo effect only works if you believe in it, if you dont believe your sleeping pill actually works, it wouldnt work if it's actually just a placebo.
@@MrSHADEKILLA No. Recent research shows that the placebo effect still works even when people know it's a placebo. The mind is weird.
Exactly the same thing that causes "Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity Disorder", except the noicebo is radio waves rather than wind turbines.

electromagnetic hypersensitivity is chuckanery
Our store, which sells cell phones, has to carry a sign saying Some people think it might be trouble. That’s the City of Berkeley. Of course we have an enormous WiFi signal in there too.
This is one the most interesting videos I have ever watched. I knew about psychosomatics and how it’s done through information , but this has a range of implications
While touring a college, a very charismatic instructor for a class on wind energy showed me the basics on how wind turbines work and how great they can be for the environment, and when I see turbines now I think of the instructor and wish I took that class tbh. I think it would have been a very rewarding field to work in
The irony a fossil fuel power plant can actually make you sick.

@Kyle idiot
Kyle not wrong. Non scientific but I live in a small community along a river, the power plant is on one side with half the population and the other half is downwind. Everybody knows it's caused health problems from the pollution.

I often use those memories when I need a boost.
Seriously, I think the turbines are awesome! :)
You are noz alone. I could watch them for hours with good weather and a good cup of tea.
During the day they're interesting. At night, if you've never driven through the Midwest at night before and can't put two and two together to realize what they are...holy crap all the lights freak you out. I thought I was driving through a secret military base or something.

@@rrudydedogg3779 Yes, sadly some birds are killed by wind turbines. Domestic cats kill a multiple of this amount every year, but I've never heard anyone complain about that.
I would go down to the New Jersey coast a lot growing up and I always remembered the wind turbines as a pleasant piece of the scenery and a representation of being in sync with nature; something like an idea of progress. Its strange to me that they could be so scary.
Yeah for real! Especially when the alternative is burning coal...

Seeing a neat line of wind turbines and using them as a guide when taking a photo always create an interesting composition.
Probably the same or a similar reason to why some people don't like clowns.
an idea of progress? lol we wont truly progress until we start going nuclear... wind and solar are way to inefficient take up to much material and harm to much wild life. we arent saving the planet by using these renewable energies we are just hurting it.
Dude! I discovered your channel two days ago through this video! Why the hell didn't I discover you before?! Watched most Balkan episodes, some Japan episodes and some others, and I'm utterly blown away by the quality and intenseness!
The Dutch have had windmills for hundreds of years and I’m almost sure this illness doesn’t occur in the Netherlands 🇳🇱.
Hush now. Troublemaker.
We used to have a windmill that pumped all the drinking water for the farm. I don't think these high priced, high maintenance wheels operate quite the same.
True, but those were not generating electricity or spinning so quickly. It's a bogus illness, but old windmills is not the strongest argument against them.
Unfortunately we have such idiots in the Netherlands as well.
I'm on the winning side Explain the high maintenance. Please do not ridicule things you do not know.

, because of your video. On a side note, the wind turbines have other issues regarding their noise levels when their close to homes (especially at night) and the windmills long-term sustainability among others. Then again, nothing is perfect, there will always be a compromise.
I've never been able to get close enough to one to hear it. They're are drowned out by nearby trees, bushes, and traffic noise. I've heard recordings, and I find the sound quite pleasant. I could sleep to that, as long as it's just the windage through the blades, without any kind of "clanking" sound.

"Alternative Thinkers" - Yep. Gonna steal that
They're taking the alternative to think.
@@somedragontoslay2579 I really like "Alternatives to Thinking" xD
It's thinking using "alternative facts" from "alternative media"
I've been a wind technician for about 9 years, they are really coop machines!
According to many utilities, they are considered "negative load" due to the randomness of the wind. To be considered true "coop", They would need to be paired with electrical energy storage, so the power can be supplied on demand,(dispatchable) not just when the wind happens to be blowing.
This was the first time I actually read the end note. Hilarious! Thanks for making your videos.
Since I am early, just leaving a message to say I love your content!
Alright, time to watch the video now.
I love windmills, they're like a monument of humans sustainable energy. It feels like the sort of thing future civilisations would see and be like 'woah, look at these energy monuments'
I like the aesthetic of wind turbines
Yeah they're pretty monumental when they only last 15 years and no one will tear them down once they stop.
Wind mills utilize mill stones to grind grains into flour.
You’re brainwashed... they don’t work when the wind is not blowing and it takes a lot digging up the earth for metals.
lol, if they last more than 2 decades. even Chernobyl made of concrete won't last, perhaps the elephant foot is the only thing that will surely remember us, a monument to our time.
Simply, how perfect is this presentation.
I will always remember that one farm outside town that sold some of their land to the wind farms, within 2 years they sold the place due to the turbines for like 2.5 million, that was about 10 years ago and since then its been bought and sold 3 more times, most recently it sold for like 800k.
This sounds like something from an SCP entry. A Memetic disease
have you seen a black cat lately?
i thought it was called psychosomantic
First time hearing about this, really weird thing. I didn't even knew that people found wind turbines to be visually annoying, I find them kinda hypnotic to look at.
I had never seen a wind turbine for most of my life. The first time I did was in an alpine valley while i was in vacation. The vista was absolutely stunning, and the turbines made it way, way better. What would've been only nature before, now was nature with a moving sculpture to humankind's attempt at synergizing with the natural world. White, clean, sleek and majestic.
for real. There is no accounting for taste, but i think they're pretty, personally.
In some areas they used strobe lights as markers on them to ward off aircraft or whatever. When you have an area with dozens of bright blinking lights, that can be annoying at night. The ones with glowing red markers don't have that problem.
The only other thing I could think of is being downrange and into the shadow during sunrise or sunset. Because then you'd also get a strobing effect with the sunlight as the blades move.
Other than that, they seem just fine.
I always become happy when I see these things
They're like giant pinwheels, that happen to generate power.
Lol! I love the credits!!! Wow, nice job 😄
Well put, sir!
This is going on the extra credit list for my high school classes!
Thank you! Stay safe!
I slept somewhere in Kansas in my truck for a night or two night and 1 wind turbine several miles away drove me freaking crazy. I didn't know there were turbines anywhere near where I was but a low grumbling caused me not to sleep all night and I discovered the turbine over a couple hills as I continued my trip towards the East. I was a disbeliever myself but after that experience I'm hear to tell you it really is a sleep disrupter.
The footage of Uruguay on this video is so beautiful... So serene.... So peaceful. I know this is unrelated to the topic but I always really enjoy the drone shots in the videos. Uruguay just shot up a few spots in my travel list.
It is as you describe. You are always welcome here :)
Nice to see you back, sir
Love this show!
Listen Mary, people are sheeple. I figured that out for sure over 20 years ago when a friend and I, bored with being 18 and wondering how smart our group of friends really were, we made up a guy. Just made up a person, we called him Jim and then with no back story for him, not anything resembling details, nothing but a name and how great he was and how much fun we had hanging out with him and we just started throwing comments out when with our other friends. Not even talking to anyone but each other, we'd say , damn man I was just thinking about Jim earlier, I miss that guy so much. Just an occasional mention... It was truly astonishing as it took less than a week, and we heard the first one of our friends fall into our trap, then another as they would start also bringing up Jim. They also missed him and wondered when he'd be back. No one noticed we hadn't even said he'd gone anywhere, like I said, no details, to the point Jim wasn't even believable as an imaginary friend for a child packing in creativity.
So, like I said, sheeple. You say something enough, mention someone or something enough and some percentage of the people listening will buy in, even of it leaves them missing a friend that they never actually met because they never existed in the first place. 🙃😉
So, aahhhh.... Jen! Whatda ya hear from ... I mean what's Jim been up to lately? I havnt heard from him lately, thought you might have...
@@paulryan2128 Be gentle, Paul. Jen is grieving because Jim came down with the wind cancer. I went and saw him the other day and things are not so good.
I have work for you. Spin doctoring is hell but it pays well 😃.
Captain Tuttle likes your comment. mash.fandom.com/wiki/Captain_Jonathan_S._Tuttle
to answer all your questions:
being stupid is not ilegal. I wish it was, but its not. hell, it might make you president.
Spreading stupid can be made illegal.
@@TacticusPrime it shouldn't be. silencing stupid opinions makes those opinions seem like they have something behind it. if they're stupid, they're easily disproved, so disprove them and convince people. if you let people in power silence people, the rules made to silence others will inevitably be used to silence you
@@natalyst Agreed. Ridicule, sarcasm, satire and humor are better at exposing the foolishness of frightened people who have no critical thinking skills.
illegal* but I get your point. To me it's the fundamental flaw of democracy. It's impossible to eradicate stupidity yet every vote matters. Stupid people have as much of a say in politics as intelligent people. But stupid people are far, far, far less likely to have a political opinion rationally based. They are subject to manipulation. From people they know and from people who campaign for election. The whole point of a democratic system is to give the general public a say in politics. To reflect their own interests in the state. But the problem is, too many people don't know what they want. And that's the sad truth. All you need is a politician to tell you what you want, tell you what you want to hear and manipulate you into believing they reflect your interests. Democracies don't reflect the interests of the majority, it's simply a system to trick people into thinking they are reflecting their interests. But to speak out against it, you would be declaring that people are stupid and can't think for themselves. Which is completely true for a lot of people, at least in terms of politics, but would obviously be shot down in the time of social correctness where everybody is a special flower and everybody needs to be protected from criticism. Maybe, the governments wanted this... By protecting the idiots from criticism they are essentially protecting their ability to ignore the purpose of democracy. I don't know, maybe I am just a cynical bastard, but I think we are seeing an increasing trend worldwide of morons being manipulated to vote for things that don't support their best interests. How do I know I am not one of the twats I speak of? Well, I don't. But I did study politics and political theory and focused my final thesis on the democratic lie so I think I am in a position to criticize.
I mean there is no easy solution, but one way to start would be a better education system. Schools are still teaching religion while politics and health are not mandatory. There is a reason that in the majority of democratic nations, few feel it necessary to educate their population on politics and their national political system. The more politically ignorant your population, the easier they are to manipulate. And yes, politics is everything in this discussion. People who are irrational towards vaccines, windmills, 5G and that sort of stuff, tend to have irrational political opinions too. What fuels all of those communities is the same thing. Fear, mistrust and conspiracies. The more people understand their country and how it is governed, the less fear and conspiracies float around. But good luck extending political education. If that happens, people might not be so quick to forgive the state for all of its many misdoings.
That doesn't answer the question about the purposely misleading energy companies.

Hey, you can't get much more on topic than a Hadfield in an ad for a Hadfield. Gotta give the TH-cam ad targeting some credit for that.
You guys do an outstanding, amazing job.
Love your videos. Belief is based on reality and then molds a new one. Placebo effects are as real as physics. There are so many different kinds of wind turbine syndromes.
Is it cause they break the air into smaller pieces that arnt good to breathe? Right?
Exactly. They cut up the molecules creating dangerous particles, sometimes even radioactive ones
Pretty sure that's not how physics works, chief. But I'm sure you're only joking.
The air pieces are cut so thinly, they become sharp and end up causing microcuts in your nose, throat and lungs.
How fucking anime doesn't that sound!?
@@gdttdeggegdh5471 - Ha ha ha ha ha! This is along the lines that dinosaurs burst into flames because there was too much oxygen in their atmosphere and with their tiny nostrils they breathed too fast, causing their noses to ignite. That's also where humanity's legends of dragons came from, because humans were around when dinosaurs lived... Was that from Ken Ham? Or somebody worse than him?
I live under 5 miles from hundreds of wind turbines.
I've never heard of this and it makes no sense.
Although a lot of them do leak brake fluid, so if you're underneath them they can burn and really mess with your eyes.
Once you're more than about 10 meters away you're fine.
To be honest, I would have trouble sleeping at night if my house was the next-door neighbour to wind turbines, but that would mostly be caused by the unsteady noise and that a heavy smell of hydraulic fluids might drift by and in through my window.
The idea is that somehow they create a electromagnetic field which messes with the electric field in your body. This is so stupid as it drops off so fast that you probably would have difficulty measuring it even 20 feet away.
@@TrondBrgeKrokli Wind turbines are not loud at all. 100 meters away from the turbine they make the same amount of noise as a mid size window AC unit....like the kind that people install directly into their bedrooms.
At 400 meters away, wind turbines are quieter than the refrigerator in your house.
Does your A/c or refrigerator noise keep you awake too? If not then you're complaint is nonsensical.
I've never experienced any of the hydraulic fluid if I was more than 100 meters away.
You have to basically be directly underneath them.
Your whole argument seems like someone with an agenda.
@@bobhope4288 Not at all, I just imagined living close to a wind turbine as some of those I saw in west-coast Sweden about 2003. I could hear their machinery from 500 meters away (although varying a bit) as if I was standing under it, if they have become less noisy in modern versions.
Good stuff!
Very well put and strikingly true
When I lived in NJ, I always saw a big wind turbine in Bayonne. It's almost a hundred feet higher than the Statue of Liberty. And it's in a so out of place location, makes you wonder why it's there. From boats, you see the skyline of NYC, Ellis Island, the Statue of Liberty, and then you see a lone wind turbine. It was a very interesting decision to build one there, it's the first Leitwind (Italian company) wind turbine to be installed in the US.
Maybe it was a test unit for an offshore product, they often do this on land for new types, but next to the ocean, presumably to expose them to the a salty environment but still make access easy for maintenance and monitoring.
There's more to this when this issue gets interlaced with internet and closed communities.
When you are fine, you don't post on the internet about being fine. When you are feeling bad, you do sometimes post, and you sometimes do research and so you find other people's posts suggesting all sorts of things. One of them gets you. In one of them you believe. Then people form communities around these suggestions and these communities evolve like almost like an auto-imune disease.
A few years ago I got in a rabbit hole of worry over my mother developing "chronic lymes disease" after she was diagnosed with just regular lyme disease (which is gone today).
Long story short it took me MONTHS and one big scary revelation to understand that there is no such thing.
Today I laugh about it and how my mom is doing just fine now that we stopped thinking about this stupid suggestion, but at the time, we both thought it was soon going to be the end of her life, and that wasn't fun.
So please, whenever you grasp an idea, don't immeaditely accept it with all your claws like I and my mom did.
Love this guy!!!
I live in Germany near 18 of these. Various years of construction, various sizes. Since 1997.

You're a gifted storyteller ... thanks.
I did an AP test where i had to synthesize an essay about how, according to every source they gave me, wind turbines make people sick
Ok, now I want a report on how coal plants that have been working for decades help our health and how they are terribly healthier than windmills. (Notice that it is an irony, for defective carbon units that do not understand that it is an irony).
Stupidity is the mother of fear, and fear is the mother of all evils: war, progroms, crusades, witch hunts, genocides etc.
Fear, laziness and stupidity.
Thanks for that
