I'm not saying you are completely wrong, but since it is in my back yard, I wanted to mention that. And by the way, I have seen the original boat when I was a boy. At that moment it was not on display in the regional museum of Drenthe, so we where invited to follow the conservator to the museum storage to have a look. It was an amazing sight. Thanks for the great video!

I have several large “rocks” that are actually the remains of an ancient seabed. I dug them out of the side of a hill out in west Texas. Lots of cool stuff buried in the Earth and the sea.

This reminds me of the town of Rungholt on the west coast of what is today northern Germany. It was completely washed away in a single storm that took about 20,000 lives and altered the entire coastline in the 1360's. It's also often called the Atlantis of the north.

A video on how the Chesapeake Bay was formed would be cool!

That's so mind boggling to me how for long periods it was covered with water then dried for long periods, then was covered in water again, same with the Sahara alternating between green and desert periods. That dramatic transformation of the landscape over such long periods of time really fascinates me.

Not quite "Dry" land. Although there probably was dry land, Peat is typically formed when beavers dam a creek, form a pond where organic matter is deposited over time, the pond fills in, becomes acidic and pickles the organic matter. Also lakes can fill in over time in the same way.

Also, the ecological wildlife in that area will definitely suffer from the lack of currents and decrease in salinity.

Not necessarily in the production values or content, which are obviously fine, but in the delivery. Nice.

You got close, Joe, to a much larger story than just Doggerland. Look at the paleo coastline of the British Isles coming out of the Younger Dryas, prior to the first sea level rise that left Doggerland as one (but not the only) vestige. For me, the far more interesting area is the once dry Irish Sea, English Channel and the area south of present day England and Ireland. This area was likely more temperate, and was significantly larger than the later Doggerland. Keep in mind, that Plato dated the inundation of Atlantis to thousands of years before his time. The North Sea tsunami and the eventual final rise of sea levels that took out Doggerland was thousand of years later. Plato said that Atlantis became a mud flat impassable to boats … which is what would have separated the British Isles from Europe after the earlier inundations. Let’s also not forget that anti-religious scientism pushed “gradualism” as Orthodoxy for the last 150 years as catastrophism was viewed as “religious”. That orthodoxy is breaking down rapidly as our understanding of both genetic and geologic history since the rise of anatomically modern humans in northwest Africa (?) some 300,000 years ago has improved. Btw even the USGS is throwing in the towel on no Americans until the Bering land bridge, as sites 30,000 years or older in the Americas are being recognized as well as other genetic flows into South America. Plato’s writing also include a quote from an Egyptian priest about ancient cycles of the rise and fall of civilizations due to catastrophe. The extreme catastrophists want to place a giant Atlantis out on the mid-oceanic ridge and push tortured theories to get it to disappear. The severing of Britain and Ireland from Europe behind an impassable mud flat Channel and North Sea is the sinking of Atlantis … no magic is required. You can go from these significant global sea level rise events to Fermi Solutions as while the Earth is an Eden most of the time, and on the scale of human lifetimes, not so much in terms of longer timelines. The Fermi Solutions universally are expansions upon what we see here on Earth, cycles that destroy fragility and complexity due to cosmic, geologic, biologic and anthropologic knockdowns and bottlenecks.

Although, it's clear in the story of Atlantis that they supposed to have such extensive use of metals that they can afford to cover their walls in various metals. So a stoneage basic city wouldn't be a match.

I live in the north east of England and after storms it's not uncommon for the Petrified Forests to be visible on the beaches (maybe they were joined to Doggerland?). It's a bit surreal the first time seeing what look like amazingly preserved tree stumps in the middle of the beach but it becomes one of those things that's just taken for granted when you live with it. Much like stone circles, castles, Roman ruins, and other stone age things when there's loads around you! Someone found an Auroch (ancient ancestor to the cow) skull a few weeks ago. Bits wash up every now and then. Auroch were thought to have become extinct around the British Isles about 4000 years ago so I wonder if they were wandering around on Doggerland before it went under water.

Porcupine Bank is an area of the Irish shelf, on the fringes of the Atlantic Ocean approximately 200 kilometres (120 mi) west of Ireland. The relatively raised area of seabed, 200 m below sea level at its highest, lies between the deep-water Porcupine Seabight and Rockall Trough. The name comes from the bank's discovery in 1862 by HMS Porcupine, a British sail and paddle-wheel ship used mainly for surveying. The northern and western slopes of the bank feature species of cold-water corals. According to Dr. Anthony Grehan of the National University of Ireland, Galway, the virtually untouched site could benefit dwindling fish stocks and possibly aid medical research. "These are by far the most pristine, thriving and hence spectacular examples of cold-water coral reefs that I’ve encountered in almost ten years of study in Irish waters. There is also evidence of recent recruitment of corals and many other reef animals in the area suggesting this area is an important source of larvae supply to other areas further along the Porcupine Bank." - Dr. Anthony Grehan, In an 1870 paper presented to the Geological Society of Ireland, Mr W Fraser suggested that these reefs mark the site of the sunken island of Hy-Brasil.

The Antikythera mechanism, an ancient Greek mechanical orrery was not a computer, certainly not in the sense that we use the word today. As you allude to, it's usually presented as an astonishing example of how incredibly advanced ancient Greek technology was and in such a way that makes it sound as though we had no idea that devices like it even existed before it was discovered. This is *NOT* true. Devices like the Antikythera mechanism are actually well-attested in surviving ancient written sources and classical scholars already knew that these kinds of devices existed in antiquity long before the Antikythera mechanism was discovered. The mechanism is not significant because it is the only device of its kind that ever existed, but rather because it is the only one of its kind that is known to have survived to the present day ... Basically, there has been an incredible amount of BS written about the Antikythera mechanism.

We should not be so arrogant as to imagine that this could not happen again.

6:35 You can still find shoreline features of glacial Lake Agassiz where I live in Manitoba (Lake Agassiz didn't form or drain in one go, so there are phases of the lake that lasted long enough to create multiple shorelines*). I learned that fact (and have since spotted a few ancient beaches in the middle of nowhere) when I studied geolimnology (part of my minor in geological sciences) with the world's foremost expert on the lake, Dr. James (Jim) Teller. He's retired now, but lives in my neighbourhood, so I bump into him on occasion when I'm out walking the dog. *Technically-speaking, Lake Agassiz didn't drain completely - Lake Winnipeg, Lake Manitoba, and Lake Winnipegosis are all remnants of this lake that managed to survive.

Great video as always. Couldn't help but notice you used a picture from Tromsø when talking about saving the livelihoods of people living along the north sea. Unfortunately Tromsø is way further north than the dam you mentioned, so it unfortunately wouldn't help us much up here. So if you want to experience Tromsø you should visit while it's still above water! Or maybe not, flying or taking a boat here probably just hastens our doom..

2:06 i watched a documentary where it was saying they thought that france & england used to be joined together by the same limestone hills that make the white cliffs of dover... and during the ice age, huge iceshelves were there, which made the north sea more like a fresh water lake than a sea.. and water levels would rise and fall.. and they had a theory that at one point when the water levels were particularly high, the water came cascading thru the english channel forming very quickly this channel cutting a huge gorge thru there and therefore at some point the water level would have dropped dramatically... the level could have gone up and down in various points in history so a certain few thousand years it might have been boggy & lower water levels than the atlantic etc..

Makes sense when you consider the "Atlantic Coast Megalith builders". Also fits Platos 'description' of Atlantis. Beyond the Pillars of Hericles (Straits of Gibraltar) and the shape/formation of Stonehenge and other henge's match the description of the 'city' itself.

The glaciers and ice was so thick , it weighed down on the continental shelf they sat on . This tilted the shelf of land where doggerland was up and created bogs and maybe some forests. As the ice melted the shelf of land which was pushed up by the weight of the ice now was sinking below sea level . Very little of doggerland being submerged had to do with the amount of ice melting , but more to do with the weight of the ice not pushing down on the shelf and and no longer tilting doggerland up.

Have to agree! As late as the early 2000's schools here we're still teaching about a historical famine caused by potato blight. But only in recent years the documents, detailing the huge export of goods from the country have revealed it was a massive case of neglect towards the Irish people by its own government in Westminster. The population in 1847 was estimated at 8.5 million people and when I was still in school in the 90s it was still only recovering at 3.7 million People. Now stands at a comfortable 5.15 million people.

For the last couple years, I have had a couple subnautical anomalies on my wall. Would anyone care to guess as to their provenance? Port Royal Jamaica at 40 feet deep, Port of Julius Rome at 5 meters deep, Cleopatra's Palace at Antirhodos at 5 meters deep, the Bimini Road at 18 feet deep, the Yonamuni Monument at 26 meters deep and 91 feet tall, Cambay India at 120 feet deep, and the Baltic Sea Anomaly at 100 meters deep...

The Dutch created an entire province in the middle of an inland sea in The Netherlands (the province of Flevoland) a little over 100 years ago. Now over 400.000 people live there in many modern cities. There's a lot of farmland and even an international airport. I'd say it's worth spending money on reclaiming land, as long as you let the Dutch do it.

I appreciate your hard work and you seem like a genuine cool guy so thank you again sir.

This video is fascinating. Thank you! "There used to be an island here." That's how I feel about where I presently reside. The locale, for the most part, could be referred to as "No one you want to listen to tours here, USA". Yeah, no. Aside: An area of land behind where I grew up looked like the bottom of an ocean from millions of years ago crossed with a deep dessert. It was filled with all sorts of fossils. It was amazing. Until it was, of course, bulldozed to place a swath of cheaply constructed awful cookie cutter houses that paid no heed to the area, the people who'd live there or the most basic of planning or design tenets.

We used to trawl there and on very calm days you could see the sandbanks below

It's surprising that the collapse of the ice dams holding back Lake Agassiz didn't result in a similar Channeled Scabland geology as we see in Eastern Washington from the ice dam collapses that drained Lake Missoula. That kind of unique geology would make it relatively easy to see how that massive lake drained.

It was the Azores. Not just because that is EXACTLY where Plato described, but the hot/cold springs Plato describes exist there, the bullfighting exists there, the aquifers exist there, the red/black/white stones Plato describes are there, and step pyramids are also located in the Canaries islands which would have been easily accessible if the Azores' basin were above sea level.

Very interesting! Being born and grown up in Ahrensburg Germany we had that topic in school and visited the "Tunneltal" were these hunter gatherers lived… Had that story almost forgotten over the years and was surprised that our teacher did not tell us about the Doggerland.
