    Very interesting facts! Here's another- the freshwater lake called the Sea of Galilee is 600 feet below sea level (the 2nd lowest lake in the world) and its outflow is the River Jordan which empties into the salty Dead Sea at 1400 feet below sea level (the lowest lake and lowest point of surface land on Earth). Yes, the River Jordan is virtually the ONLY major river with its entire main course hundreds of feet below sea level!

    • @wardarcade7452
      @wardarcade7452 ปีที่แล้ว +23

      @@TheJoker137 Good question! The ground isn't particularly soft but this seems to be the result of extreme below sea level depression is a result of it being the far end of the 7000 mile long Great Rift Valley which starts in East Africa with that tectonic plate splitting from the main continent with shallower depressions in Ethiopia, Djibouti and Eritrea before it goes entirely underwater with the Red Sea before it makes it reaches Western Asia with the Sea of Galilee, River Jordan and Dead Sea! There's far less water flowing down the River Jordan than there was when the Colorado River carved out the Grand Canyon. Speaking of the Grand Canyon, though, there's far less debris at its mouth in Gulf of California than geologists would have expected . IOW, there's millions of cubic feet of missing rocks,etc. that no one can account for! Sadly, the Colorado has been long since dammed and tapped out so that today, not only have the reservoirs become alarmingly empty (and it's unclear whether this past winter's intense snowfall will reverse that) but nowadays the Gulf of California is lucky to get a trickle of sludge oozing into it.

    Avatar was not banned in China. The 2d version was pulled off market because it was not doing well in the box office. The IMAX and 3d version were in cinemas for a long time. I lived in China during that time and experienced the hype about the movie. China has a strict quota of what foreign movies are allowed to play each year and has demanded editing/cutting of movies. However both Avatar movies were both played and did really well in box office.

    As some additional information from the ones I know something about
    For e'Swatini, this is an aviation law that a government minister used a tongue-in-cheek EXAMPLE of a witch flying above 150m. It was targeting drones, not witches. But you know how media stories get passed around, especially about "third-world countries".
    The United States of Central America is interesting (Well, the United Provinces/Federal Republic which lasted almost 20 years, not JUST the United States) but what's more interesting is that there are two nations that currently use "United States" as part of their official name, and quite a few that used it as part of their name for a short time in the past, such as Belgium, Brazil, Colombia, Indonesia, Venezuela, and even a union of the UAR (ALREADY a union of Egypt and Syria) and North Yemen that existed for 3 years named itself the United Arab States.
    For their "Earthquake Diplomacy", you will be happy to know that despite Erdogan straining relations, the recent earthquake in February still had Greece responding first and quickest to help Turkey.
    For Hawaii getting blizzard, one thing that is amazing is the state has a full 12(!) different Koppen climate types, from rainforest to desert to mediterranean to oceanic to subpolar to tundra! Both Alaska and California, big states with incredibly varied climates, only have 11. Texas may be big but it only has 8, and they are all B and C type.
    Lake Nyos definitely isn't the deadliest lake, even though the Lake Nyos Eruption is definitely the most famous event involving these lakes prone to limnic eruptions. Lake Kivu in the Great Lakes region, near the border with Rwanda is a lake that is MASSIVELY larger in both surface area and depth and is prone to them historically, though hasn't had a famous eruption in modern times. However, it's almost definitely the one that has killed more living things over time, as there is ample of evidence of past limnic eruptions even if we don't have any eyewitness accounts.

    If you think the Saudi book with Yoda making a cameo is something, in 1990 there was a Serbian biology textbook that has Nicholas Cage and Holly Hunter, cradling their stolen baby from Raising Arizona, on the COVER.

    Avatar was actually allowed in China, but only in 3D, because the CCP hoped that the people who watched the movie would be so impressed by the effects that they wouldn’t pay attention to the movie’s message of a suppressed population rising against their colonizers.

    - Many 17th and 18th century maps show Lake Champlain as being wider east-to-west than north-to-south. It was not until the 1750s that its' orientation was consistently depicted correctly.
    - Beverly Hills and West Hollywood, California are possibly the world's only co-enclaves. They border each other and together are entirely surrounded by the City of Los Angeles.

    8:30; ohhhh I wonder if he’s watched any of Randall Carlson’s stuff on the ice age and Lake Missoula yet? Very interesting stuff! Even if one is not into the types of theorizing that Carlson does… (not pseudo but bordering on the pseudoscience stuff😅); his theories on the ice floods from Lake Missoula are really cool to watch and think about.
