I was at the campgrounds in Madras and it was so amazing, especially at how dark and cooler it got. One of the most amazing things I've ever witnessed.
The very sad thing about this is that, if people would have just shut up, they would have noticed that it became eerily quiet with no sounds of birds, and then the crickets started chirping. This is why I hate crowds. You missed the REAL show.
MondoManDevout, I can't tell if you're serious or being sarcastic. I've now seen a total and several partial eclipses, with this latest being 91% of totality, and even the quiet partial is better than this fiasco. It's a phenomenal video, but the people ruined the overall "awe", in my opinion.
For me being in Madras today, the crowd actual added to it. For that one, 2-minute moment, everybody was united and experiencing the magic together. Through the yelling and cheering, you can really feel the energy of all those humans connecting together. Now, this was my first total eclipse, so I don't know what it would have been like silent, but the crowd definitely helped for me.
Joshua Nolan, thank you for your comment. I suppose I understand what you're saying, considering how divided our country is right now. But the thing is, it just seems to me to be as "united" as any musical concert that happens somewhere every day. You can get that experience anywhere, but this experience of silence was once in a lifetime for most people.
I mean, yes, I want to experience the silence too, but the Madras Solartown was right next to a highway, so even if we were silent we wouldn't have heard the birds no matter what. Maybe the next one in 7 years will be good, watching from like Vermont or something. But honestly, people couldn't help themselves. It's so awe-inspiring and magical you can't help but yell out and that's why it was fine for me, it affirmed that what I was seeing was real and not a dream, that it was really happening and everybody there saw it too. It was so beautiful and incredible it brought tears to my eyes, and I now see why people get addicted to chasing eclipses. I want to experience that complete and utter awe again.
@@rehman.2233 that's why I always trust my clock and/or check outside or find a hint to what time it is. Unfortunately, a big building was built in from of my house so now it's blocking the sun :(
I was in Woodburn, OR - and would say this video does it justice! Comes pretty close to what it felt like out there. What was astonishing to me was how white the last light was (compared to the typical orange sun)... That and how the sun's light seemed really 'sharp edged' - like it was coming from multiple LEDs in a flashlight...
I traveled from southern California up to Madras, Oregon. It was a long drive, my mom drove the whole 11 or 12 hours it took to get there like a champ, we hit no traffic while getting there & made it 30 mins before totality. It was something i'll remember for the rest of my life. Absolutely awe inspiring. I wouldnt have been able to do it if my mom hadn't had pity on me. Knowing how much I wanted to go see it but didn't have a car that would make it, she told me we could go in her car. I will forever be thankful to her for doing that. It turned out to be pretty remarkable so she was glad to have made the trip with me. She said had I not wanted to go so badly it never would have occurred for her to go drive up there & see it. A once in a lifetime event that you never forget, even my 16 year old son who wasn't to excited about the long drive thought it was cooler than he thought it would be, now he has a tale he can tell his grandchildren... So if you ever have a chance to see one people, do it, don't hesitate, move mountains if you have to it's "totally" worth it
Drove up from Reno to see it. Parked on a side road, off the main highway, in between Madras and Redmond. So many different things to experience when you actually witness it in person.
I'm glad you took this very spectacular video. I saw the eclipse in Salem, and while no video I've found so far can really do the experience justice, this has come pretty damn close. Thanks for giving me a way to relive the experience.
There are no words to describe the beauty of it. You have to experience it at least once in your life. Totality should be on everyone's bucket list....and it really isn't so hard to do either.
I feel like when people cheer, it ruins the moment. However, this is just the way I feel. When I saw the eclipse, there were only a few people around watching, as we were in a more remote area of the town. It was nice and quiet. It made that once in a lifetime event so special.
I feel like both would have their own merits. The silence enhances the weight of the moment, making it a awesome (In the actual meaning of the word), personal experience. Being in a large cheering crowd makes it a social, uniting experience where everyone is there for a common purpose and you all enjoy it together and it reminds you of just how small we are yet how big we become when we unite
@TheRubyGamers: Like Chroma, I think experiencing totality in either type of setting would be special. I was in Madras and felt that the sense of camaraderie and the energy of the crowd in the moments before and during totality were one of my favorite things about the whole event. It was incredible how quickly everyone's behavior went from a calm curiosity to cheers and shouts of amazement as the Sun winked out and the corona appeared. Next time I think I would like to try being in an isolated setting and have a more introspective or spiritual experience out of totality, but I don't feel my first totality was ruined at all by the crowd. It was awesome.
I too was there at the campgrounds. The most amazing thing I've ever seen. The traffic getting back home to California tho was a nightmare -- still worth it.
My luck has been out of this world with two more kids and we’re planning on doing the 2024 one in April as a bigger family on the East Coast this time. My wife & I still laugh about the off roaring we did with the SUV as the traffic was out of this world!!
Bond Summers there are hundreds of other videos showing the crowd when it happened. I'm glad this vid is actually showing the sun from the ground lvl instead
@@memeoof4239 thats straight up selfish this is one spectacular astronomical event and not all people have a chance to witness that.... such selfishness what kind if teacher is that
Such an amazing thing to see with your own eyes. No video or photograph can do it justice, but listening to the appreciation from the people cracks me up.
No. The Moon is moving at nearly constant speed in front of the Sun throughout the eclipse. It takes a little over an hour for the Moon to fully cover the Sun, and then since the Moon appears very slightly larger, it takes about 2 minutes before the Sun reappears on the other side.
Lex Rubin no it's not...the last one in north america was 99 years ago but it happens all over the world. There will be 3 or 4 eclipses happening before the next north american one
Jumanji Woe. There was a Total Solar Eclipse in 1979 that went from Oregon to North Dakota I believe. The reason why this particular Eclipse is so special is because this cover the entire continental USA which is the first time that's happened in 99 years.
I love this video, brings back the memory Of that day and the excitment, watched it from mcminnville ive never heard a whole city cheer at once. Quite the experience
Satan The Sun is white. But due to the hydrogen and other gases together it appears yellow. The Corona is white because the Moon covered every bit of the sun for about 1m 30s. So theres no light to hit light anymore around the edge (if you know what I mean,) So it appears neutral -White.-
Satan the sun is like a billion times hotter and brighter than the corona, which is why we can't see it any other time than when the sun is blocked. The yellow we perceive is from the light passing through earth's atmosphere and our eyes
You were actually able to see Venus from here! It was one dot and it was a circular orb. It's visible because of the reflection from the sun! It isn't visible here, but it is in other places!
It isn't actually black -- during the totality the Moon's disk glows faintly with Earthshine, and this can be picked up on a long camera exposure. To the eye though, it looks pitch black, because the corona right next to it is very bright and tricks the eye.
Saw the real thing today and this video is the closest I have seen to capturing what the corona looks like in person. It was amazing and it extended out about three diameters from the sun, yet it wasn't overpoweringly bright much like the video at :45. Thanks for sharing!
This is the best total solar eclipse footage I have seen so far who so ever has taken this footage has done a great job
Same.
I’ve seen one better than this but I can’t find it anymore on youtube
I was at the campgrounds in Madras and it was so amazing, especially at how dark and cooler it got. One of the most amazing things I've ever witnessed.
I like phenomena like this. Reminds me that there's so much more going on out there than our bitter strife here on this rock.
The very sad thing about this is that, if people would have just shut up, they would have noticed that it became eerily quiet with no sounds of birds, and then the crickets started chirping. This is why I hate crowds. You missed the REAL show.

WHAT camera did you use and what setup
What’s that red thing at 2:45
An optical phenomenon caused by the lens of the camera maybe.
Red sun
Drove up from Reno to see it. Parked on a side road, off the main highway, in between Madras and Redmond. So many different things to experience when you actually witness it in person.
we saw it down here in the Caribbean too

Nice video... Thanks for sharing in LA it was nothing like this🌒🌓🌗🌖
Jesse Torres it looks like one eyeball staring at u
Ya Iowa here, it was nothing really here. You could kind of see the moon in front but wasnt much
Jesse Torres in Louisiana it was nothing like this eather
It was not supposed to be seen from every state. Only the states align with Oregon from the West to the East (South Carolina)
Jesse Torres in st.louis it ain't even get dark lh
Wow! Thanks for this!
great coverage ! you truly captured the moment !
Hey Geek Wire. I am a classical composer.I would like to use this video being it is the perfect length. I will give credit to GeekWire for the video.
Thanks for the video, one of the nice ones I've seen so far...hope you don't mind me sharing it🙂
This by far is my fave eclipse video so far.. the men are just fun to listen to. The universe is an awesome place.
What sucks is that the entire time the eclipse was out for where I was the clouds covered most of it
What is the red thing beside the corona? Or the bright sides
Elite Dein it's from the light filtering through the lens
Totally amazing! The best one I've seen yet. Hello from K.C.
Please mention Madras, USA 🤣🤣🤣
Lol. I thought it was Chennai.
@@sriramsundar8388 same 🤣
Wait... did i just damage my eyes by watching this without safety glasses!!

How has your luck been since? Ive heard its not good to be outside during an eclipse. Everything fell apart in my life after that so im just curious
My luck has been out of this world with two more kids and we’re planning on doing the 2024 one in April as a bigger family on the East Coast this time.
My wife & I still laugh about the off roaring we did with the SUV as the traffic was out of this world!!
Show the light on the crowd, what the light environment looks like around you. Just focusing on the 'money shot' is very shallow in scope.
Bond Summers They cant get both, the camera was specially set up to capture the eclipse with lens, exposure, etc
Bond Summers there are hundreds of other videos showing the crowd when it happened. I'm glad this vid is actually showing the sun from the ground lvl instead
Cool...eclipse party at my house tonight at 8:00 pm, beverages for alcholocics plus great food until total darkness.
What is that red line thing near the sun
But is it safe to watch total solar eclipse on youtube here??
That's even funnier.

Madras is in india so no
Oregon, USA
So jelly I couldn't see it :( *cries in corner*

Did you see the 2024 Solar Eclipse?
@@Escalator2X Yes, I saw the partial Eclipse I did not live in the path of Totality

Why hasn't anyone mentioned that red object to the left? Don't you see it?
It's just a reflection of the crescent sun in the camera lens.
why does the moon stopped in front of the sun?
Sun: it's very easy to impress people on earth😅🤣
the next eclipse will happen on my birthday April 8th 2024.
Lol that's a nice bday present
You are going blind on your birthday lol

Nope. I missed it too. A fucking storm rolled in minutes before it happened.
My parents wouldn't let me see it because we didn't have any eclipse glasses.
I couldn't see it I'm so jealous it would of look so cool!
Why is the moon black??
Luan Salmon mabye because its infront of the sun? just a thought
But you never see the shining moon and shining sun in the sky together just before the eclipse happens, so where is the moon?
Luan Salmon because the moon is black or maybe it's not getting any light on the side that's facing us
Luan Salmon maybe there's no such thing as a moon. It's just a illusion
It isn't actually black -- during the totality the Moon's disk glows faintly with Earthshine, and this can be picked up on a long camera exposure. To the eye though, it looks pitch black, because the corona right next to it is very bright and tricks the eye.
How many times are they gonna say wow.
Internet teens have no appreciation for these celestial events. :/
amazing, loved the video. Did you notice the star of David right at the end ?
It may caused by the shape of the aperture from the camera lens.
never imagined that madras could be a state in USA
when the eclipse went dark it was so cold thank you for sharing the video what a great experience to see it again
