When you see it starts as a trickle and ends up pushing enormous rocks, trees and assorted debris its amazing that no more damage is done, due to clever design of channel. The power of nature is definitely a force to be reckoned with. Fascinating to watch for some reason, thanks for sharing.

Sorry, I'm not familiar with french. Thank you so much for this video, as it is a crucial evidence for the force of mud and water. I'm in geology and search for all those evidence that these kind of flows can move tons of stones. So you do a great work to geology with your videos. Thanky again. Merci 🙏🙏

Fluid dynamics in action, how to slow down a stream of fluids without making it rush down like crazy.

Wow thats so cool, it's looks like slow flowing cement with big huge boulders mixed in, amazing the power

Love the flows! How do they clean the flutes when the rain finally stops and they are full? Do they have dedicated crews who come in with excavators and such! That would be nice to see as well!

Amazing that the pressure is able to move those huge rocks & boulders.

I am very interested to see the transition back from ciment river to river stream, or maybe there is some work to do to clear some stuff before that can happen ?

This is how roads are made

I thought that exactly..cement. notice how quickly the level rose. I looked at a house recently, and noticed it was opposite a river.This is why I changed my mind!

Brady, My thoughts exactly.. A site I was on had a blowout at the bottom of a 12' wall. The Geotechs told me they have concrete columns fail all the time . Lots of finger pointing. Sometimes the whole column has to come out, re bar and all...hugely expensive. Not sure if it would pass the slump test or have enough strength after 28 days. For those following, cement is the powder, concrete is the mix with aggregate and water,

It's almost exactly like concrete. About the same consistency. EDIT: Like a lahar

These mudflows are so weird, particularly how there are pulses of higher levels. I was surprised that the gutters across the channel didn't immediately fill up with rocks; instead, these all just kept moving and didn't get stuck. I would think these would have to be cleaned out regularly, particularly in the winter when it would be too cold to rain, and thus nobody could be caught in a flood while working.

When the flow slows to a stop like this, does it set in place? If yes, then how is the channel opened again?

its like a moving mass of wet concrete.

what debri flow it looks like cement and where does it come from or is it mud

As it slowed right down I got this over whelming urge to jump in feet first..!!! OK I'll see myself out.!!

its a Lahar. A lahar is a violent type of mudflow or debris flow composed of a slurry of pyroclastic material, rocky debris and water. The material flows down from a volcano, typically along a river valley.
