Natural Wonder Only Discovered in 2009

- Although the natural wonder Stuðlagil and the basalt columns have always been here, much of this fascinating landscape was underwater until only a few years ago. It is almost hard to believe when standing here that this was a terrifying place under the forceful pressure of a dominating and angry river. It is by any standard one of the most beautiful places in Iceland where you can see and photograph exceptional basalt columns.
When Icelanders built the hydroelectric plant Kárahnjúkavirkjun the sources for the river Jökla were affected. Instead of running as a glacial river through the valley of Jökuldalur, its source in the north-eastern highlands was diverted into the Hálslón reservoir. From the reservoir, its flows with its former force through 60 kilometers of underground tunnels to drive the hydro-electric turbines of the power plant. So, most of the old sources of the river Jökulsá á Brú don't reach Jökuldalur anymore.

You've officially added iceland to my travel bucket list.
Absolutley
FJL HellaKwik bullshit. It’s a gorgeous place. I’ve been and it’s definitely worth the trip.
These to me look like giant cells of a very large plant! Thanks for the best tour, look forward to seeing more adventures, xo bless all, Victoria Australia
Giant cells? Where the fuck does that come from. Giant cells? Like what else? Do you have any logical explanation for "giant cells" perhaps? You could be in line for a Nobel Prize if you could explain that - or a Darwin prize if you can't.
Cohan ...I concur with you 100% . Giant plant cells , thats what they looks like to me too .
Prickle B & PAVANZYL; G’day folks, look at “Mud Fossil University “ Roger Cornelius, TH-cam it just May open your eyes to the mega fauna and flora that make up our beautiful Earth we inhabit! Happy awakenings xoxo Victoria Australia
@@victoriacohen3319 thanks you but I have already watched it on TH-cam , but maybe PAVANZYL have not .
Victoria Cohen Yep. Pre flood tree trunks. Giants roamed the earth also. Devils tower in Georgia is perfect example.
Chris, I said this at the beginning of this series, but I want to repeat myself by saying that I had no idea how beautiful Iceland is. Each one of these videos has blown me away with their beauty. Keep up the good work. It is appreciated. ☮️
Thanks!
Chris, I appreciate you taking that hike for me and sharing this incredible place with us!
The final shot, where your drone backs up & away... *breathtaking!* Thank you SO much for showing us the world.
underrated channel.
Even the thumbs down terrorists appear to agree.
Must have taken millions of years to make,Or was it ten minutes,
Show me ONE modern volcano that has erupted in this manner !!! Would love to see it!!
Plasma discharge
2:33...CURVED just like Devils Tower in Wyoming which is an ancient, Pre Flood Silicon Tree that was cut.
It's probably not an eruption as much as it's a crustal break and extrusion-oozing. There's a lot of this in eastern Washington and some in the lava flows of central Oregon as well.
@Ron Buckner…..Eastern Washington, Scablands is an ancient Mining Site which was deliberately flooded afterwards. And there's a connection to be made with Devils Tower in Wyoming relating to the basalt colums.
They’re mud fossils. Check out mud fossil university on youtube. 👍💯
Chris, Of all the people who post regular videos to TH-cam yours are the most educational and interesting. So many people put so much trite stuff up about their own lives, but you are a terrestrial Jaques Cousteau.
Thanks Jason I appreciate that
Or the international Huell Howser.
Funny how you (like many others) think your opinions are facts and speak as such. Little self involved if you ask me 😉
@@mikewalker6016 funny (or not) how rude some people are. He's the one who hiked up there, his hike, his opinion.
@@anner.5347 was talking about Jason not Chris settle down
The rock formation looks like the same thing at Devils Tower ,Wyoming
Yes, here's links to more around the world. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_places_with_columnar_jointed_volcanics
Because it's a giant three 🌲 that got cut down by the Giants that were two miles high nephilim
There's a good reason for why they look the same !
Find the BBC video of the polar bear catching the seal underwater with David Attenborough!
@@byteme9718 you know earth is flat right? do your research
Just wild, this and your whole trip to Iceland! Such an amazing place. I had no idea it's so unique. Thank you for your beautiful, very well done videos.
Incredible place. You are a great tour guide, excellent video. Thanks!
Thanks for taking us along. Because of your Channel I get to see things I’m no longer able to visit myself.
I’m really glad I stumbled on your TH-cam channel. I think you have one of the most interesting channels on TH-cam and you do a very good job filming and narration.
Thanks John
You have to visit the Giants Causeway in N. Ireland, very similar.
Thanks for cutting the most intriguing & curious part every time you get to it.
Awesome, you are one lucky camper, so well presented no drama, glamour etc. Just what it is.👍👍👍
That basalt sure isn't from a volcano, look at how it's shaped, looks like fossilized wood,or plant life. Awesome content! Just subscribed!👍
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basalt
These formations occur when a bassalt flow cools. Being fairly homogenous, it forms regular patterns. The Devil's Causeway in Northern Ireland is another example, but they occur all over the world.
@@alecblunden8615 why dont they occur at any present volcanoes?
@@alecblunden8615 - I don´t believe that. Lava can´t give e geometrical structure. These columns are so straight and of the same size, made like of building blocks. How does science explain that?
The Keebler Elves made them in their goochballoon. Get an education pal. Even if it’s a mystery to you doesn’t mean it is to science.
@4:28- "How gorgeous is that?"
What do you expect? Of course a gorge is gorgeous!
Chris, thank you for showing me lands that I'll never get to but really enjoy seeing. You're videos are just wonderful. Keep on doing great work and above all stay safe.
Stunning, gorgeous! I so appreciate you taking the longer route and for going through the wet stones. I have never had a desire to visit Iceland until now. Thank you
Almost other worldly. Thanks for the adventure.
Be safe! Thanks for not getting any closer to the edge.
i really like your camera work- it feels like a really good look around , lots of details and your steady. I'm looking forward to more videos.
Thx for taking me to this fascinating beautiful area and sharing it with us Chris.
Wow!! This is my favorite of your vids. Great job. Really appreciate the extra mile (literally) you go to bring these to us. 😄😍
A Volcano with such hexagonal structure!? Cmon, you can do better :)
Thnx for this beautyful video of it!!
That place is beautiful! Looks like something out of a video game
I am really enjoying your Iceland series. As a photographer I have watched several photography channels on photographic trips to Iceland. You have provided an unseen view that others clearly miss. What a treat your series has been. Thanks for sharing.
thanks for bringing us along man this was awesome!
Wow! I must see this for myself. I lived in Iceland for a year when I was in the USAF down in Keflavik. I thought Gullfoss waterfall was awesome. This is incredible. Thanks for sharing,
Wow that was absolutely stunning! Never been to Iceland but I would love to go. That landscape is incredible.🌅❄️💨🌬
Really good work on this Iceland series Chris. Thanks a lot.
WOW! Such a wonderous sight! Thank you for sharing a part of your day with us!
That drone shot was amazing! This is amazing. Thanks again for sharing.
Just reminded me I HAVE to go to Iceland.. Always something new to see.. Literally.
Your channel is really decent
.
@its all greek to me Friday Rubbish!
@its all greek to me Friday Obviously you didn't shop at Bonus.
@its all greek to me Friday So it seems you've disproved your original assertion. If you go there and fall into the tourist traps it's massively expensive but if you live like a local it's no more expensive than many countries.
@its all greek to me Friday Three/ four days is an ideal starter trip but will confine you to one location which will almost certainly be Reykjavic. I just checked the same accodation (for two weeks from now) I stayed in during a trip back in 2015 and the same spacious room cooking facilities and with excellent views is £80/night for a two night stay and £70/night for four nights. A Kia Rio collected and returned at Kelfavik airport is £53 for four days but for £88 you could rent a VW Golf. £88 is the cost of an organised Golden circle tour for two people but with your own car you can now do this for the just cost of the fuel which will cost you less than the airport transfers you've also saved. By living like a local I meant not eating in the very expensive restaurants. Basing yourself in Reykjavik limits you because having done the golden circle you then only have to day trips, south past Vik and to Vatnajokkul (£144/person on an organised tour) or north to the Snaefullsness peninsular which would set you back £94 each on a tour. The problem with this time of year is the limited daylight but costs do not change much and you can find a great compromise between the two. Personally I prefer Iceland outside its peak tourist season as it can get crowded.
Thank you so much for letting me see Iceland in all it's beauty! Thanks also for not using annoying music and flashing effects. Some of us have eye issues or even epilepsy and can not safely view videos like that. Thanks for keeping it real! 👍💕
WOW!!! Truly breathtaking sight!! You sure pick some amazing places to explore, Chris. Take care..
Beautiful amazing and interesting place. Thanks Chris for sharing it.
Beautiful!! Just like the "Giants Causeway" in the North of Ireland
Similar but these can be seen in many places throughout Icleand.
Northern Ireland
@@logicfxtrading2280 You guys just can't leave it alone even after all the pointless killing.
Meanwhile in another comment thread they are saying this place is the petrified stump of a giant tree.
🤣
And fingals cave on the other side on Staffa. Same process.
What an amazing place you've found. Definitely putting this on our destination wish list! Excellent video!
Thanks for the hard work to show us how amazing it is over in Iceland, just breathtaking !!
I am sending this to Roger Spurr at Mudfossil University.
This is not lava. This is the TENDON OF A GIANT.
Agreed love peace and harmony to you and all safe healthy journeys infinity
Mudfossil University 👍
Iceland is so beautiful, almost otherwordly
Thank you for sharing such an amazing glimpse into this gorgeous wonderland, that so many, such as myself, would not be able to experience otherwise!! Thank you, thank you!!!
Thanks for taking us along on your adventures.
Iceland - putting the *gorge* in gorgeous since forever!
Great video of the canyon. Thanks for all your video's, but be careful out there also.
Thank you so much for sharing this video. Absolutely amazing!!
Holy cow! That is amazing! No other place on earth! God how I would love to go there. Thank you so much for sharing your adventures. Also a really great video! Love the different angles. Really cool!
Looks like it was a huge tree at one time. Not rocks from volcanoes. Beautiful video. Thanks for sharing.
@f4rt right. Mudfossils.
It's slowly cooling basalt oozing out of a magma chamber. No organic material no trees.
@@erikk77 hmm I don't know for sure, but its really interesting that they all have the same hexagon shape to them. I know what your taking about because we are taught that by science. But I've seen some really interesting rocks in my time, like devils tower, which looks like a ancient tree. Has the same hexagon shapes also.
I’ve dreamed of going to Iceland ever since I was a child and saw the James Mason version of Journey to the Center of the Earth. A rock hounds paradise.
This is truly amazing scenery. Brought back some memories because we have very similar columns in a gorge in my country which is far away from Iceland.
THANK YOU for sharing this!! I am left breathless at the beauty...
I wish I was younger and fitter. I would love to go to Iceland.
Me too!!!
You can literally drive anywhere and really close to everything: Geysirs, Waterfalls, black beaches.. all within like 1 minute walk
Beautiful canyon!
Wow, nature at it's most stunning. I love your video's. Informative, no "hype" just beauty and interest. Thank you once again for taking me somewhere I would otherwise never witness. :)
This was really beautiful to watch. Thank you for the video.
Almost looks like the walls of Devil's Tower in Wyoming
@Jim Browski It's slowly cooling basalt oozing out of a magma chamber. No organic material no trees.
Yes Wyoming, Sth Dakota ...... could these be the cell structure of vastly ancient trees, when the world was very different..... of vast trees
But these are rocks, I don't understand how that canyon could "probably" be a tree or a cell structure a long time ago
NO, SORRY
It's slowly cooling basalt oozing out of a magma chamber. No organic material no trees.
@@mindhunter8772 a great flood or plasma storm can petrify trees and other plants
Wow, that is beautiful and what a view ! Awesome video Chris !
Way cool! Thanks for taking us along!
thanks - you added another dimension to 'armchair travelling"....
Awesome Video. Chris 🌹🇮🇳🌹🌹🌹
Your videos are AMAZING to watch!
Wow this is amazing! Thank you for taking us here.
Wow! This place is incredible 👍
if the river was flowing faster for thousands of years, why is the rock still oblique and not eroded smoothly by the water then?
ChrisFE Jackson yeah....
Looks like big plant cell structures. Like devils rock. And nothing like vulcanic basalt
@@thetruthishere5088 for sure buddy, what does in nature create such structures, internally or externally? Start with trees ;)
@Jack leone it's not hard is it? Say what you see ;) cheers fella!
@@thetruthishere5088 It's slowly cooling basalt oozing out of a magma chamber. No organic material no trees.
Thanks so much for sharing! Just amazing & so beautiful!
Wow, just exquisite and your camera work really shows it well. Thank you so much for this. I was feeling a little nervous for you as much down at the bottom where the rocks fall to as when you were above on the potentially fragile tops. Again, thank you for this.
Elements of cathedral architecture. Especially the curved columns, they look like inverted (upside down) arches.
@Truman Burbank You fucking halfwit.
Wow, lovely area! Thanks for sharing! I have seen those types of rocks in the past in photos and I used to wonder where in the world that was. I recall the third MYST game had similar looking rocks in one of the areas and I thought it was neat that they were real. It's funny how truth is often stranger than fiction.
Awesome especially when u get sick & tired of sad news put on my dude it gives u peace of mind at least for a moment!!! Thks again bro 👍🎥😎
Thanks so much for this series of videos. This is the best of TH-cam. No promotion, zero nonsense, just pure education. Great job.
but it is nonsense
You are witnessing an ancient forest of petrified giant trees that have turned to stone and different rock ( depending on the minerals of the water these humungous trees were under.) The trees have fallen over to expose the trunk stems and rings,and the bark. The broken chunks from the wood that look like man made blocks of stone are from this same petrified forest; the trees were petrified and pressurized under water to cause this effect . There just might be crystalized granite and iron or maybe gold( due to sap from the tree that has been petrified). The electro magnetism should be high in that area. Most mountains if you look close were ancient forests of giant trees. Look at the similarities of the bark and structure of trees and then compare it to these mountain sides. You will be blown away with the similar structures shared by both.
Discovered in 2009, or commercialised since 2009?
Rob P.R. Cap until the dam went in, it was unseen
These mountain walls seem to have a similarity to other kind of megalithic structures.
Advanced Ancient Technology - from an advanced ancient civilization.
It's been mentioned that a cataclysm occurred 12,000 years ago.
Iceland was decimated by a cataclysm a few hundred years ago - so was Greenland, Frisland, northern Europe, Siberia, the Arctic and other regions - the public isn't taught about the cataclysms - but all the major destructive forces on Earth that broke and subducted tectonic plates, that carved out the ocean trenches, that formed the mountains, the Grand Canyon, etc., are all documented in historic records - this includes the cataclysms known as the Siberian and Deccan Traps, Eltanin, Nuuanu, the explosions of Yellowstone, Santorini, and Vesuvius - which was in 1631, not thousands of years ago as we were told.
Historic records tell us when and how the Grand Canyon was formed, when and how the Himalayas were formed, the Andes, Rockies, Aleutians, the Alps, the Antarctic Mountains, etc. They tell us geologists are lying imbeciles - they tell us the historic timeline of thousands and thousands of years is a psy-op and they tell us the fake biblical timeline of 6,000 is also a psy-op. They tell us the timeline from carbon dating, ice cores, Egyptology, etc., is intentional disinfo - they tell us the ice ages are fiction, pangaea is fiction, continental drift is fiction, etc.'
Historic documents tell us the true timeline for our continents and oceans, the true timeline for Earth's expansion and the true timeline for our human history - those that prefer to cling to the lies of "science" are free to do so but keep in mind who owns the multi-million dollar publishing houses that print the lies in schoolbooks and college textbooks, keep in mind who prints the lies in the fake science magazines and in the idiotic peer review journals that maintain compliance among the unintelligent fake science gods that graduated with their C and D averages from low level institutions with minimal entrance requirements - keep in mind that psychologists have uploaded the IQ's of geologists and dozens of other fake professionals. Those of you who are satisfied with getting your "science" from those with IQ's of 85 to 115 - which is the intellectual equivalent of the smart kids in fifth and sixth grades - are free to carry on - although you might want to go to your local college to take their academic placement test and then listen carefully as your adolescent scores in "comprehension" and "spatial skills" are explained to you - then maybe you'll begin to realize the public is intentionally dumbed down, drugged up, poisoned and programmed with lies and lunacy across the full spectrum of politics, economics, history, chemistry, geology, astronomy, astrophysics, botany, biology, the military, etc.
@@SoulfulTruth Wow, that's some elaborate bullshit. To which "historical records and documents" do you refer, which apparently are neither science nor religion?
@@livinginvancouverbc2247 Let's see if I'm understanding you: You haven't studied chemistry and physics for decades - like I have - you haven't studied geological formations, wave propagation and cataclysms for decades - like I have - you're not multi-lingual so you haven't studied hundreds of independent historic documents, written in over a dozen languages from all across our Earth - like I have. You've never been a Doctoral Scholar and you've never served as an expert witness for court judges - like I have. You've also never been able to test off the WAIS-R - like I have - and you probably don't even know what that means. You haven't read the reports in the captain's logs from the sailing ships, going back hundreds of years - like I have. You haven't studied the maps of the sonar images of the landslide debris on the seafloor that displaced massive volumes of seawater that launched colossal tsunami waves that decimated the lands - you haven't correlated that destruction with historic records to see when each of the major cataclysms occurred - like I have - you haven't studied the timeline for the music, the literature, illustrations, paintings, sculpture, architecture and technologies, going back over 600 years - like I have ...
Your one great accomplishment in life is believing in the lies and lunacy from the unintelligent fake science gods whose IQ's are uploaded by psychologists ... since you don't have the intelligence to realize your fake experts have IQ's of 85 to 115 which is the intellectual equivalent of the smart kids in fifth and sixth grades, since you don't realize they graduated with C and D grade averages from low level institutions with minimal entrance requirements while the billionaires get their science from the magna cum laude PhD's from highly-selective universities like Oxford and Cambridge - since you don't realize the intellectual discrepancy between your fake science gods and the science that the billionaires get is about 100 IQ points while the difference between you and the developmentally-challenged population is about 15 to 20 points and since you seem to overlook the fact that the relatively small discrepancy between you and the developmentally challenged requires a simplified curriculum for them while your comprehension is childlike compared to the real scientists that work for the billionaires, since you don't understand that you cling to lies and lunacy that detach you from reality and relegate you to a life of insanity, I will end my explanation here because if you cared about the truth you would have pursued it - like I have - since truth is irrelevant to you, this brief explanation is for those with intelligence who reject the lies and look beyond the prison of deception to see the truth ... enjoy your dumbed down, drugged up, poisoned and programmed existence ... there's very little time left.
Thank you for the extraordinary effort you undertook to create this video. Good evening...
Super interesting landscape in Iceland. I’ve lived in several different countries and traveled across America several times but this is like nothing I’ve ever seen. Very prehistoric looking. I’ve really enjoyed this series. Like the drone shots too.
*Amazing, I thought 'The Giant's Causeway' Northern Ireland UK was unique until I saw this.*
You see this in many places in Iceland and across the world.
Volcanos do not make those columns, ancient trees
It's an ancient tree trunk. Magnificent.
lol what
Keep up the great vids. Love hearing the history too.
A very stunning location, you weren't kidding, Iceland really is a place of beauty and wonder. Thank you for sharing it with us. x
I once had an art teacher who parroted the ancient lie passed off as sage wisdom handed down from on high, "There are no straight lines in nature." I always had to bite my tongue when I thought of the horizon at the beach, and geo forms like these that do indeed sport the straightest of lines! By the way my art teacher was an ass clown & an idiot.
"Goes on for a long time"
rather odd way to reference distance
Mavoc the keyword is reference
Not when you are walking
He has dyslexia
I understand it
Thanks for bringing this beautiful image! Breathtaking!!
Amazing! Such beauty and splendor. Looks like a great place to visit.
Giant tree that's what I see open your eyes wake up people the world is not what you are told
Looks like Fingal's cave in the Hebrides islands of Scotland.
Thrilled to see this, happy for you to have been able to make this,
Very nice job!!
I wish I could see this in my lifetime,
Very Nice 👍
That looks like something from a movie set. I have been really enjoying your trip.
I believe these hexagonal columns were created by ancient organic life.
silica trees
Mudfossils!!
I'd love to see the results of ground penetrating radar at places like this or maybe Devils Tower for example.
Giant trees👍🌳
No, they are non-organic and formed from basalt, volcanic rock. The crystalline type shape comes from the fact that they cooled very very slowly (unlike Obsidian which is igneous rock that cools very fast - thus unable to form large crystals in time).
WOW I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THAT BEFORE 🥀 THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS VIDEO WITH ME 💞💖💞💜✝️💜
Then come to Europe...Devil's Causeway, Fingal's Cave, etc etc etc.....
Dude that was awesome! Thank you always...
Without all the water pressure, the edges are destined to fall in. I saw a lot of cracks in the earth up pretty high in his top hike. So glad he was able to share these photos, and remain safe! Absolutely amazing!
I have a few questions about these formations.
1.How can they form into individual hexagonal columns, if all the lava is molten? Surely they would be one
glutinous mass.
2. If as you show on your vlog, sections of columns that are broken off & individual, that would imply that
each column was formed individually & allowed to cool before the one next to it was formed. You don't
see order like this in the chaotic nature of eruptions, it's more akin in nature.
3. As volcanism is still an ongoing phenomena, & is the same as it was millions of years ago, how come we
don't see these formations being made today, given the number of active volcanic sites that are
being monitored.
I don't have a logical scientific answer myself for these, it's just that when mainstream geologists say that they are basalt rock, the least they can do is give us an explanation as to the method & process that caused their formation, & why it's not seen today, as, after all, they're the experts.
petrified plant biology is the best explanation, ancient giant trees
@@coryleblanc Make you right my friend, you only find organization & intelligent design in nature. Besides, explosions create chaos & destruction. Regards Urban Geeze.
Thanks for the upload, it's amazing how they can still find new places to explore in this day and age. Look forward to more videos.
Also on a side note, may I ask what jacket that is? I've been looking for something in that "ice white" color for ages... thanks.
As always, beautiful video.
Never seen anything like it except for the "Devils Post Pile".
@Charles Nelson indeed
There's obviously iron somewhere around there for the rocks to turn red and orange like. Rusty metal
It's rust in the water. It's normal.
@@MrThenry1988 iron in the water, that means a source of iron.
It's called mineralization, it's how most ore bodies are formed. Give it a few million years and you'll have something.
@@julie4178 All of New England was a volcanic province during the breakup of Pangaea. There are even discernible remains of supervolcano calderas in New Hampshire and Maine. This is where your heavy mineralization comes from. It's also where the gold, silver, tourmaline, topaz, beryl, lepidolite, smokey quartz and the beautiful Herkimer diamonds (also quartz, just crystal clear and double terminated) comes from. Millions of years ago your region was a slightly less hospitable place. 😉
These were ancient, Giant Redwoods. That's where the red came from. Look at the cellular structure of a tree. It's a perfect match.
I am surprised people are walking that close to the edge of those cliffs. It looks wet up there and one slip and over you go onto rocks below. That sure is beautiful and fascinating, Chris.
Truly a remarkable place! Iceland is on my bucket list of places to visit.
Do you carry a gold pan?
