There are 2 other supervolcanoes in the United States. The Long Valley Caldera in California and the Valles Caldera in New Mexico. They aren't well known but They are monsters in their own right. And they are seismically active as well.
@thomasrussell7135 it's probably extinct. The are only 3 seismically active super calderas in the U.S. the Valles Caldera is one of them the rest are dormant or extinct meaning that their Hotspots have migrated to another part of earth's mantle.
I remember when Mt. ST Helen erupted in 1980. I specifically remember a one inch layer of ash all over everything all the way in Central Texas. At noon, it looked like it was midnight. The sky was filled with ash. It was very surreal.
What's funny is that north of Mt St Helens didn't get a lick of ash from the May 18th eruption. It erupted again that August, and we got a smattering of ash in the Seattle area, like we'd driven down a dirt road.
Mt. St. Helen eruption and its aftermath proved to me the universe and our earth is only 6000 years old. When the Flood occurred, you had dozens of tectonic shifts, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, 40 days of rain, the pushing of mountains and the formation of the 7 continents instantaneously within 14 months or so. The animals (fossils) died instantly, Trees and their trunks were buried "as is" due to the Flood. This is why some dinosaurs and other animals at that time still have proteins and food particles in their buried (entombed ) bodies. The runoff of the water and mud is what formed canyons and strata. Scientists have proven this to be true. Fossils of oceanic fish and other aquatic animals have been found at the top of some of the highest mountains. They ended up there because they floated upwards due to the high waters. Evolution is a lie. Atheism is a lie. If you believe I'm wrong, you're an idiot for ignoring solid evidence.
I was in Eastern South Dakota, and we woke up to what we thought was dirty snow over everything! No ice age, just " cloudy" skies for one day.

The higher the silica, the more viscous the magma, and the more viscous the magma, the more powerful the eruption. . Super volcano eruptions in Iceland are relatively calm because it is basaltic magma (very low silica). Eruptions in Indonesia are usually more forceful because the magma leans more towards basaltic-andesitic, which has a higher silica content. Also, the bentonite ash deposits throughout the mountain regions (Wyoming, Dakotas, etc) from former eruptions can be many feet thick, but even going east of the Mississippi there are significant ash accumulations from those eruptions. The ash fall would be truly devastating.
Just to the south and southwest in Idaho (Idaho Falls, Blackfoot, Arco, Twin Falls)there's many types of lava rock but most is basalt, and yet Yellowstone is supposed to be very violent and it's not even 100 miles away.

Two things: 1. the Yellowstone hotspot has been erupting for 55 million years, much more than just 3 times. 2. The "official" term for this type of volcano is a "resurgent dome caldera." The BBC came up with the word "supervolcano."
well thats actually right, the film shockingly shows that the a moderate quake near Norris area could trigger a huge instability and trigger as shown on one of the teams monitors. a VEI 8 currently a VEI8 is deemed to be a supervolcano eruption.
This failed to mention that a) the hot spot is slowly drifting northeast - more accurately, the continental crust is slowly moving southwest. The northeast crust is extremely ancient craton, which is resistant to volcanism. Eventually, North America will drift enough to position the hot spot under Manitoba and THAT might be a mess. That’s like, several million years away though. b) Iceland sits on top of a much more active hot spot. You can see from what’s happening in Grindavik, that scientists can tell when things are getting spicy belowground. In the extremely unlikely event that the Yellowstone volcano becomes active and nears eruption, we’ll have YEARS of warning. Idk what we’d actually do about it, but minimally, they’d have plenty of time to evacuate….basically three or four states. Weirdly, this video both overstated the drama (it wouldn’t suddenly erupt one day without warning), and greatly underestimated the impact. This would be, minimally, a minor extinction event. There’s already too much carbon being pumped into the atmosphere. This could outgas enough methane and CO2 to tip the scale into runaway heating. It’s difficult to tell, honestly. It might, on the other hand hand, disrupt civilization enough to stop anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. It’s not something we currently have to worry about though. It’s really just a thought experiment.
Look at it another way. If we go into a volcanic ice age, then that cancels global warming. That would make a certain young lady from a very cold country very happy.
@truckercowboyed26 how dare I ?. What did I dare ?. Was it not worrying. This falls in the same category of Beetlejuice going KABOOM. Nothing I can do about it changes are nothing "Fun" will happen in my lifetime.😮😮😅.
Why did he brink up Japan as a major casualty event for Krakatoa and not even mention Indonesia? The vast majority of the deaths WERE in Indonesia. Also, I know I am nit picking, but he said there wasn't a super volcanic eruption during human history, then brings up the Toba eruption killing humans.
Tsunamis affected Indonesia primarily. Japan was not involved in that particular event. 36,000 inhabitants were from Indonesia. Many remain un named. Even to this day. Thanks for the information.
The super volcano Wawa in Utah and Nevada is bigger than Yellowstone and if you've ever noticed they're starting to have a lot of little earthquakes I often wondered if this was lava moving possibility but it is bigger than Yellowstone and just not active
I believe its getting fed molten rock from the Cascadian subduction zone pushing the Pacific plate under the North American Contiential plate to the Rockie mountains and perhaps beyond that too.
My understanding is Yellowstone is well vented and would have to have a major earthquake before it could even be concidered for eruption. It’s still a good song tho. 😀😃😃😄😁😆😂🤣
@@Wesmancan where's that article at? I would love to see it I know I live by Yellowstone sort of and I know that the roads have melted because they were too hot they've had to close them off because the lava has melted the asphalt and the lava has lifted up Yellowstone lake so I really do believe it could go but everybody does have an 0pnion..
My childhood home was on the side of the Jemez caldera complex. I used to ponder what would happen if it erupted again. It is essentially Yellowstone on a smaller scale.
@@00Pottus00 Historically they have been catastrophic. Las time was about 700k years ago. It changed the landscape in a 75 mile radius of the center. Those geysers that spew water are completely different in that it it's only steam and water and not house size chunks of debris like you can expect in a caldera eruption.
Do you get a thrill anything that knowing that you’ll be just as bad as everybody else oh I forgot you’ve got your proper shit proper shit proper shit guy doesn’t save people Prepper shit
On the plus side, once the eruption takes place, the deposit of ash will ultimately make the soil around there more fertile, as it is in Hawaii. Also the clouds of ash in the atmosphere lowering the temperature in the Northern Hemisphere will alter the weather and possibly make it more prone to rain. So the addition of nutrients to the soil and the change in weather to a wetter cycle will ultimately cause a fluorescence of plant and animal life as it did around St Helen's in the decades since.
U miss the point of a long world wide volcanic winter due to Ash blocking the sun. Ash travels just like dust or sand my good freind a super eruption is different than a normal volcanic eruption
You DID hear the part about the air being unbreathable, that what they call "ash" is actually miniscule particles of glass that, if you breathe it in, turns solid in your lungs & you eventually suffocate? The "worst case scenario) they are talking about will make Mt.St. Helens look like a baby's fart!
In Eastern WA…when it blew it was a beautiful day. I put my rabbits and dog inside…filled containers w/water (we had an open water source) and went to visit my mother. A couple hours later it was pitch black and huge flakes of ash were falling. My husband and I covered our kids, loaded in the car and drove about a mile home. The next day it looked like a moonscape. I covered my face and went out and beat bushes and lower tree limbs…set out water for birds, squirrels. The advice was put it in your garden… Not only did it kill car engines…it was like a layer of cement in the soil for years. I scraped it off my garden…I think they must have picked up piles of it’s everyone had to get it off the roof. That was in May and it was a cool Summer….
I wonder: Would adding more venting routes for the molten rock placate Yellowstone(and other super volcanos)? People could adapt to the lava flow areas, and it sure would beat a giant eruption.
Please explain just how we would go about doing that....I mean, what type of drilling equipment would we use to drill into molten rock w/o the drilling equipment itself also melting?
The magma is one thing, but what isn't being considered is the massive amounts of potentially dangerous smegma that could emitted into the atmosphere. Scary stuff, indeed!
Everything depends on how powerful the initial eruption is. The jet stream would play a part. Some days i dream what i would do if yellow stone blew up.
Are u mad any eruption would instantly wipe out everything withing 5 to 20 Miles that's close to 1 million people and there won't be alerts because a eruption can happen anytime and we're long over due. My advice enjoy life now don't worry you will only see a bright light and get a very nice early summer
While it's true geothermal power is a great source of electricity, this is a national park and is offlimits for development. You cannot effectively "cool" a volcano by installing a geothermal plant, or many geothermal plants, for that matter. What you might do is trigger an eruption.
I dont agree with the fallout data. If you look at jet stream and other wind pattern data, the west coast would be less impacted by initial blast fallout and would get most of it from secondary fallout which would be significantly less as it would have had to traverse the earth
You don't want to crack that egg! The magma is too close to the surface already. 1 stray crack reaching the magma will cause it to blow. It's a very bad idea.
No unfortunately if you try to drill to relieve the pressure it will be like putting a very small hole in a Coca bottle cap after shaking it up and hoping it doesn't find the new path of least resistance the hole you just made for it by trying to stop it you may make it worse and if you try to pump water in to it kiss your self and everything you know good bye the last thing super heated magma needs is Hydrogen to spice things up
It needs a really big mountain to sit on top of it so it can build up pressure and erupt with a big explosion. Like the big mountain that used to be there a long, long time ago.
Not true. There are already hundreds to thousands of cubic miles of rock sitting on top of the underground magma chamber. What constitutes a violent eruption depends on the composition of the magma.
This is the only video I've seen that said "we'll be ready for it". If it does Erupt in our lifetime I sure hope we're ready. Very insightful and informative, Great video 👍👍
How much time would we be telegraphed ahead of time before the big event? Can we make advancements in technology to prevent a catastrophic event? What does this narrator mean when he said, we’ll be ready for it?
The volcanic eruption in what is today El Salvador in 530 A.D. caused havoc for nearly 90 years. The social upheaval was probably the worst in human history. I can't imagine the disruption Yellowstone might cause.
This was a kind of terrible video. Scientists would be able to give us somewhere between 5 and 20+ years’ warning. They really didn’t make that clear. Yellowstone is similar to Iceland, except WAY WAY less active. You can see from the news there, that scientists can easily give people enough warning to get out of danger, even on that much more volatile hot spot. There’s also very very very very little chance of a Yellowstone eruption. This video implies that it’s imminent and that’s simply not true. The Yellowstone hot spot is drifting slowly northeast. Well, North America is drifting southeast, actually. The continental rock into which it’s moving, is the original North American craton that goes back to the time before there was even life. That continental crust has already survived massive asteroid impacts, crashing into Africa and separating again, multiple times, three different orogenies and rifting events, multiple glaciations, and millions of cycles of the earth tilting back and forth. Scientists believe that the hot spot is already under enough of that highly stable geology to greatly reduce the risk of catastrophic eruption.
Just imagine the Appalachian Mountains being crowded with people Pillars of smoke lifting up to the sky from the valleys and hills around the mountains from all the camp fires
@@vivrowe2763 That's not how the ring of fire works. The ring of fire is just a pattern of volcanic activity due to tectonic plates, it's not like it's at risk for some kind of chain reaction effect.
It can though with the right amount of eruptions. They tend to all trigger one another especially since many are close together. The Cascades and Rockies alone have like.. 4 - 7 @@jaredsilvers2782
Only question, how strong will the next eruption be? Will it be like Tengger, with building a new volcano in the middle like Mt. Bromo? A steam explosion like many of the Campi flegrei? Or really "the big one"? The hot spot is very old, from the Columbia river flood basalts, over other younger calderas to recent Yellowstone. I think, even hotspots are not eternal and may get tired. All over the world we find remains of old super volcanoes.
Only the Shadow knows! Siesmologists, geologists and geophysicists all provide some semblence of an answer, but in reality, it's all just a guessing game.
@@charlesrichter3854 Does this mean I can soon go camping in Yellowstone again? In the late 80's I rode my motorcycle through Yellowstone on two separate occasions whilst on my way to Sturgis.....just the normal routine geysers doing their standard thing then.

"we will be ready for it" - If one thing the last 5 years taught me is that there will be a lot of deniers who will claim this is a conspiracy and refuse to evacuate until it's too late.
Nukelear winter. The suffering would shoot ash above where it can't circulate out. The tonga volcano forced water vapor high above where it can't circulate out. The aah would reflect sunlight. 536 ad was worst year in human history.
I'm gonna correct your "statement" a Nuclear winter is just a Hollywood myt! The only "force" in history that has produced a volcanic winter has been Super Volcano's eruption or the impact of very big asteroids or ☄ ☄ comets' The AD536 weather "problems" is so far of unknown origin! Nobody have been able to find the "guilty" volcanoes!!! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volcanic_winter_of_536
That being said, Yellowstone finally erupted last week, so that's now out of the way for another 680 thousand years. It's a relief to have that in our rearview mirror.
"We'll be ready for it." Famous last words. I'm sure they were spoken by the engineers who told the bureaucrats in Japan when they said that their sea walls would protect them from any tsunami.
But also, scientists can give us many many years’ warning before this particular event. Hot spot volcanoes on continents aren’t as unpredictable as oceanic island volcanoes. As far as scope and impact of supervolcanoes, look up continental flood basalts. That’s when the mantle finds a way to directly pour magma over most of a continent. That’s just impossible to understand as humans. Even geologists have difficulty describing what happens in those events. Again, though, continental volcanism can’t sneak up on us. We’re not gonna wake up one day to the news that Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana have all turned inside out and RIP North America. We’ll have years, possibly a generation or more of warning signs.
Wow! I believe you need to update your video. The melt under Yellowstone is above 20%. The melt doesn't have to be 50% to produce an eruption. The Toba theory has been disproven. It alone didn't make humans almost go extinct.
It will erupt its over due and what u miss is the size of this beast its diameter is huge and its a mammoth. Nature will do its best to help but we need to adapt to the fact that we live in a dangerous world and we must prepare our social systems to cope and adapt to that fact build underground shelters is one way.
I’ve been hearing a lot about the new Madrid fault line that goes between KY and Missouri and how it could be strong enough to split the country in half. They say it would be a catastrophe of human lives lost even during after shocks. They claim it could happen in 2024. 🤷♂️ which will come first, an eruption or an earthquake??
The last time it happened, it happened three months after the last time a path of totality from a solar eclipse made an "X" over the united states. This is set to happen again in April. Maybe July will be a good month to go on vacation out of the country? haha
@MyFatherLoves and when that happened, bells rang in New York and James Madison and First Lady Dolly felt it in the White House. It actually woke them up from their sleep.
Mt.St. Helens is one thousand the size of Yellowstone. I remember when it went off in California, a week later, while washing my new white Ford, it began to rain and Mt.St. Helens ash was mixed with the raindrops. And the raindrops made a dirty circular splash in my freshly washed white car hood. I was in Pittsburgh. That ash will coat Vermont and Florida. I'd bet on it. There will be a lot of thick ash.
I lived in CA when Mt St Helens blew. My 1st wife and I rode a motorcycle almost 1000 miles to view the still smoking volcano and brought back a gallon of ash to spread on my garden. Did it make any difference? Not that I could tell.
I have considered writing a piece of fan fiction where the Mass Effect game universe is one in which Yellowstone's super-eruption occurred on June 27, 2089, long before the events of the first game. It would be fascinating to explore how this event -- in what characters like Commander Shepard would consider to be the past -- altered human social, economic, and political affairs. If one were to suppose that such a thing happened, then that might be part of the in-universe reason why North America in the Mass Effect universe is not divided into the same number of countries as it is today.
Collateral damage would be contingent upon the jet stream and pressure systems. Most of that damage would not happen if the jet stream reversed direction.
Why don't we turn Yellowstone into a giant geo thermal electric plant? Would that cool water going inside the pipes help to keep the earth from melting? I feel like Yellowstone could power the entire country if we just said screw it, turn it into a giant power plant.
Bruh we're gonna have MILES of cars on the south bound highways being caught in the shadow of the ash cloud if there was a heads up. Unless we had years of early warning we'd be totally ass fucked since there's no running from this in a quick manner. You'd be lucky to hitch a ride on an aircraft before the airports are swamped.
@@stephenjargiello3735The video is a bit misleading on how volcanic activity actually works.

So, despite all this time, plate tectonics, and erosion, it's still in the same place? Shouldn't it have moved several dozen kilometers?? Shutting off the lava tube that reaches the surface?

Yes, there are a lot of cores from that area done mostly by oil companies. It's a continuous record all the way back to the Jurassic. There's hundreds of identified ash layers in various cores.
We should set up numerous geothermal plants around Yellowstone and sell cheap electricity to surrounding areas and also use that electricity for any large scale industrial processing. The more heat we draw out, the less likely it is to blow.
There should be another video taking into consideration that all volcanoes everywhere are waking up. The connection between them as far as locale and land mass connections need to be investigated.

Good thing American Indians know where the underground tunnel systems are from Kanate to Florida
Two things: 1. the Yellowstone hotspot has been erupting for 55 million years, much more than just 3 times. 2. The "official" term for this type of volcano is a "resurgent dome caldera." The BBC came up with the word "supervolcano."
well thats actually right, the film shockingly shows that the a moderate quake near Norris area could trigger a huge instability and trigger as shown on one of the teams monitors. a VEI 8 currently a VEI8 is deemed to be a supervolcano eruption.

I love how the arrow in the thumbnail is basically point directly at my house.
Excuse me: I'll just go about my day with no worries now.
This failed to mention that
a) the hot spot is slowly drifting northeast - more accurately, the continental crust is slowly moving southwest. The northeast crust is extremely ancient craton, which is resistant to volcanism. Eventually, North America will drift enough to position the hot spot under Manitoba and THAT might be a mess. That’s like, several million years away though.
b) Iceland sits on top of a much more active hot spot. You can see from what’s happening in Grindavik, that scientists can tell when things are getting spicy belowground.
In the extremely unlikely event that the Yellowstone volcano becomes active and nears eruption, we’ll have YEARS of warning.
Idk what we’d actually do about it, but minimally, they’d have plenty of time to evacuate….basically three or four states.
Weirdly, this video both overstated the drama (it wouldn’t suddenly erupt one day without warning), and greatly underestimated the impact.
This would be, minimally, a minor extinction event. There’s already too much carbon being pumped into the atmosphere. This could outgas enough methane and CO2 to tip the scale into runaway heating.
It’s difficult to tell, honestly. It might, on the other hand hand, disrupt civilization enough to stop anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions.
It’s not something we currently have to worry about though. It’s really just a thought experiment.
Look at it another way. If we go into a volcanic ice age, then that cancels global warming. That would make a certain young lady from a very cold country very happy.
All of the eruptions in the past haven't caused "run away heating" in fact quite the opposite.
Carbon is natural its not being pumped or at too much of a level either.. carbon is released then it's absorbed through plants...over and over

Why did he brink up Japan as a major casualty event for Krakatoa and not even mention Indonesia? The vast majority of the deaths WERE in Indonesia. Also, I know I am nit picking, but he said there wasn't a super volcanic eruption during human history, then brings up the Toba eruption killing humans.
Covid made me a light prepper. It also made me realize prepping for minor disasters is enough. Anything severe will probably kill most of us quick.
I do not think the last eruption killed off a lot of species, but, I am not an expert.
Tsunamis affected Indonesia primarily. Japan was not involved in that particular event. 36,000 inhabitants were from Indonesia. Many remain un named. Even to this day. Thanks for the information.
The super volcano Wawa in Utah and Nevada is bigger than Yellowstone and if you've ever noticed they're starting to have a lot of little earthquakes I often wondered if this was lava moving possibility but it is bigger than Yellowstone and just not active
I believe its getting fed molten rock from the Cascadian subduction zone pushing the Pacific plate under the North American Contiential plate to the Rockie mountains and perhaps beyond that too.
@@AboveAverageMan97 a very good possibility
My understanding is Yellowstone is well vented and would have to have a major earthquake before it could even be concidered for eruption. It’s still a good song tho. 😀😃😃😄😁😆😂🤣
@@Wesmancan where's that article at?

Those are not actually bigger. Also, those earthquakes are because of fracking!
My childhood home was on the side of the Jemez caldera complex. I used to ponder what would happen if it erupted again. It is essentially Yellowstone on a smaller scale.
One thing is certain. If the Volcano erupts then everyone on this planet will be effected to a greater or lesser amount.
That's true about EVERYTHING!
And there's not a single thing anyone on the planet can do to stop it
No that is non-sense most of the eruptions at Yellowstone are small.
@@00Pottus00 Historically they have been catastrophic. Las time was about 700k years ago. It changed the landscape in a 75 mile radius of the center. Those geysers that spew water are completely different in that it it's only steam and water and not house size chunks of debris like you can expect in a caldera eruption.
@@OldManMuskratIt’s an overhyped volcano. If it were to go off it’ll be catastrophic, but not to the point where the U.S. is destroyed
Not just the U.S. , the entire world would be affected. It would be dark for a generation or more. Mass famine, mass casualties, dire times indeed.
Sounds like living in a Food Desert in a low income Democratic run urban hell hole...🤔

We're going in that direction anyway....
So my solar panels won't help me?
On the plus side, once the eruption takes place, the deposit of ash will ultimately make the soil around there more fertile, as it is in Hawaii. Also the clouds of ash in the atmosphere lowering the temperature in the Northern Hemisphere will alter the weather and possibly make it more prone to rain. So the addition of nutrients to the soil and the change in weather to a wetter cycle will ultimately cause a fluorescence of plant and animal life as it did around St Helen's in the decades since.
U miss the point of a long world wide volcanic winter due to Ash blocking the sun. Ash travels just like dust or sand my good freind a super eruption is different than a normal volcanic eruption
Depends on the season and jet stream activity
You DID hear the part about the air being unbreathable, that what they call "ash" is actually miniscule particles of glass that, if you breathe it in, turns solid in your lungs & you eventually suffocate? The "worst case scenario) they are talking about will make Mt.St. Helens look like a baby's fart!
@@vintagelady1 thank you
As an Arkansan I'm not worried about Yellowstone volcanoes erupting, I'm worried about the New Madrid Fault
Yeah that one is more likely. The Yellowstone one is less likely to happen
In Eastern WA…when it blew it was a beautiful day.
I put my rabbits and dog inside…filled containers w/water (we had an open water source) and went to visit my mother.
A couple hours later it was pitch black and huge flakes of ash were falling.
My husband and I covered our kids, loaded in the car and drove about a mile home.
The next day it looked like a moonscape. I covered my face and went out and beat bushes and lower tree limbs…set out water for birds, squirrels.
The advice was put it in your garden…
Not only did it kill car engines…it was like a layer of cement in the soil for years. I scraped it off my garden…I think they must have picked up piles of it’s everyone had to get it off the roof. That was in May and it was a cool Summer….
I wonder: Would adding more venting routes for the molten rock placate Yellowstone(and other super volcanos)? People could adapt to the lava flow areas, and it sure would beat a giant eruption.
Let sleeping dogs lie.

Ok yogibear
Don't understand why that isn't tapped for its energy potential which is enormous. You'd also cool it (by removing heat).
Look up the Indonesian mud volcano that was triggered by a gas well blow out. It's been going for 17 years now.
While it's true geothermal power is a great source of electricity, this is a national park and is offlimits for development. You cannot effectively "cool" a volcano by installing a geothermal plant, or many geothermal plants, for that matter. What you might do is trigger an eruption.
I dont agree with the fallout data. If you look at jet stream and other wind pattern data, the west coast would be less impacted by initial blast fallout and would get most of it from secondary fallout which would be significantly less as it would have had to traverse the earth
Pay attention to what has been happening the last few couple years or are you to blind to see it?
Or just to ignorant to see it.
I wonder if there is a way to release the pressure over time to avoid such a catastrophe.
They tried but the problem is gasses namely how much would be released
@@user-tx1rr3rb1q There's gotta be a way. We should keep trying!
You don't want to crack that egg! The magma is too close to the surface already. 1 stray crack reaching the magma will cause it to blow. It's a very bad idea.
No unfortunately if you try to drill to relieve the pressure it will be like putting a very small hole in a Coca bottle cap after shaking it up and hoping it doesn't find the new path of least resistance the hole you just made for it by trying to stop it you may make it worse and if you try to pump water in to it kiss your self and everything you know good bye the last thing super heated magma needs is Hydrogen to spice things up
Nope.
It needs a really big mountain to sit on top of it so it can build up pressure and erupt with a big explosion. Like the big mountain that used to be there a long, long time ago.
Not true. There are already hundreds to thousands of cubic miles of rock sitting on top of the underground magma chamber. What constitutes a violent eruption depends on the composition of the magma.
Sorry, you are incorrect.
When people complain about climate change then forget that volcanoes not only exist but dump on all their statistics.
This is the only video I've seen that said "we'll be ready for it". If it does Erupt in our lifetime I sure hope we're ready. Very insightful and informative, Great video 👍👍

This was a kind of terrible video. Scientists would be able to give us somewhere between 5 and 20+ years’ warning. They really didn’t make that clear. Yellowstone is similar to Iceland, except WAY WAY less active. You can see from the news there, that scientists can easily give people enough warning to get out of danger, even on that much more volatile hot spot.
There’s also very very very very little chance of a Yellowstone eruption. This video implies that it’s imminent and that’s simply not true.
The Yellowstone hot spot is drifting slowly northeast. Well, North America is drifting southeast, actually.
The continental rock into which it’s moving, is the original North American craton that goes back to the time before there was even life.
That continental crust has already survived massive asteroid impacts, crashing into Africa and separating again, multiple times, three different orogenies and rifting events, multiple glaciations, and millions of cycles of the earth tilting back and forth.
Scientists believe that the hot spot is already under enough of that highly stable geology to greatly reduce the risk of catastrophic eruption.
You must not know about the American Indian tunnel systems from Kanata to Kansas to Louisiana to Florida to Arizona to Texas
Both political parties will find a way to blame each other for it happening and a way to profit from the disaster.
USA as a country will collapse if this ever happens imo.

If this happens will it cause the Ring of Fire where other volcanos erupt ?
That is correct! This has been foretold for some time, so I won't be surprised when it does erupt.
@@vivrowe2763 That's not how the ring of fire works. The ring of fire is just a pattern of volcanic activity due to tectonic plates, it's not like it's at risk for some kind of chain reaction effect.
It can though with the right amount of eruptions. They tend to all trigger one another especially since many are close together. The Cascades and Rockies alone have like.. 4 - 7

Iceland is a Super Volcano and it erupts all the time! 😊
They have 32 volcanoes. I did not know that
Iceland's volcanic activity is caused by an ocean rift. Not a super volcano. The earth spreading apart allows magma to surface.
Oof
Only question, how strong will the next eruption be? Will it be like Tengger, with building a new volcano in the middle like Mt. Bromo? A steam explosion like many of the Campi flegrei? Or really "the big one"? The hot spot is very old, from the Columbia river flood basalts, over other younger calderas to recent Yellowstone. I think, even hotspots are not eternal and may get tired. All over the world we find remains of old super volcanoes.

"We'll be ready for it."
Famous last words.
I'm sure they were spoken by the engineers who told the bureaucrats in Japan when they said that their sea walls would protect them from any tsunami.
People jave a hard time understanding the scope of a super volcano. They can't imagine it.
But also, scientists can give us many many years’ warning before this particular event.
Hot spot volcanoes on continents aren’t as unpredictable as oceanic island volcanoes.
As far as scope and impact of supervolcanoes, look up continental flood basalts.
That’s when the mantle finds a way to directly pour magma over most of a continent. That’s just impossible to understand as humans. Even geologists have difficulty describing what happens in those events.
Again, though, continental volcanism can’t sneak up on us. We’re not gonna wake up one day to the news that Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana have all turned inside out and RIP North America.
We’ll have years, possibly a generation or more of warning signs.
Probably because "super volcano" is a made up term and is not quantifiable.
I live in Milwaukee so I know the ash cloud will reach me but I hope I'm on vacation by then 😟
When you wash your car after the eruption float the ash off. If you brush it off dry or rub it you will ruin the paint job.
If build of pressure would cause eruption is it possible to syphon off some of the energy thru some kinda thermal enegry plant or something?
Wow! I believe you need to update your video. The melt under Yellowstone is above 20%. The melt doesn't have to be 50% to produce an eruption. The Toba theory has been disproven. It alone didn't make humans almost go extinct.

Maybe if it does erupt, it doesn't necessarily have to be the all encompassing super eruption.
It will erupt its over due and what u miss is the size of this beast its diameter is huge and its a mammoth.

I have considered writing a piece of fan fiction where the Mass Effect game universe is one in which Yellowstone's super-eruption occurred on June 27, 2089, long before the events of the first game. It would be fascinating to explore how this event -- in what characters like Commander Shepard would consider to be the past -- altered human social, economic, and political affairs. If one were to suppose that such a thing happened, then that might be part of the in-universe reason why North America in the Mass Effect universe is not divided into the same number of countries as it is today.
