I grew up in Washington and read about the mega flood hypothesis about 20 years ago. I’ve visited the scablands many, many times. I now live in SW Montana and was discussing this in one of my Geology classes. The teacher completely dismissed what I said and laughed me off as crazy. He’s a very “distinguished” geologist and author, so this shows you the uphill battle men like yourself and Carlson have had to fight to get facts out to the people. Keep up the great work!

I've lived in WA for 38 years, and I recall when I was in school that this subject was being looked into, but as yet not had consensus. I had a geology class called "Rock and Rill" (my teacher was a dork... lets be honest here), and he was a bit old school and poo-pooed most of it. He figured it was simply just glacial cutting and the like. While there is evidence of things like that all over Canada and Washington, the sudden intense geological destruction and movement of ground can show clear evidence of intense flooding from glacial damning and climate shifting. You may be pleased to know, and can share this with your "teacher", that the USGS (United States Geological Survey) is now in concurrence that a massive flood occurred from ice age glacial breakup, as they say around 14-20,000 years ago - very close to the Younger Dryas era. This is available on nps.gov. It goes into decent detail, and I am pleased to see that this is finally being recognized.

I'm in the scablands right now! Yakima to be exact!

The most valuable thing in the contemporary re-evaluation of past history (as full of self deluded personalities in the past as today) is the remarkable feedback in 'fan' commentary. 'Media stars' come and go as they always have, but sometimes a rare, but truly intelligent and thoughtful bit of feedback ( sometimes only a remark) appears and is more than encouraging. To those who have led me along this path, thank you.

I'm learning so much more here than I did in school, and it's so much more important, that I almost feel sorry for everyone else in the world.

My first experience listening to Randall was on a long episode of the JRE, with him and Graham Hancock. Randall brought hundreds of amazing photos, and at one point he talked about, and showed examples, of water erosion across the land from airplane and drone footage. Then he compared the erosion patterns marking the flow of water. At that point he began to talk about the fractal nature of water erosion on geography. Pointing out patterns at the miles scale, and showing how they look nearly identical at the inches scale at a beach. This more than anything was my "ah-ha" moment. When the magnitude of the ancient flow of water across north America finally clicked, and I understood just how terrifying and monstrous that flow must have been. How absolutely deafening the sound would've been. How absolutely everything humans have ever built - even now - would've been ground to dust (or wet mud). I really wish Randall would bring this up more often. It punches through all the words and numbers. It hits you in the brain and the gut. You finally get just how apocalyptically devastating this cataclysm was. I hope he reads this. Or that someone who does passes it along to him. It was such a powerful and effective way to convey the magnitude of the event he's trying to teach us about.

The fact that North America was covered in KMs of ice is crazy,let alone the thought of a great enough cataclysm to melt all that ice....The way RC explains and the site evidence,huge bolders just dragged all across the site like it was easy...that alone shows that it was a a brutal and sudden event. And it asks how many cataclysms like that we as species faced? i think it was a global event,one big enough to echo and influence every continent for generations,and told by the survivors ad inifinitum, until it became just another tale to make kids sleep

In another twenty years Ben will have a megaphone shouting who is in charge around here. Randall Carlson is an endless source of knowledge on many topics, I see the same thirst of knowledge with Ben soaking it all in wherever he travels and whatever he studies. Have fun on your trip to the scablands this year.

What a Colossal Amazing Beautiful Spectacular show of Force that must have been when the water was as high as the buettes and ferociously carving away at the land! 😺😺

I raised my Kids in Eastern Washington. My husband is from Lewiston, Idaho & my Brother in laws family lives in the Tri Cities, Wa. We now live in Billings, Montana. The Geology in the Scablands is A LOT like the Geology of Central /Eastern Montana into Wyoming (check out Bighorn Canyon!). Fascinating Stuff!! Thanks Ben!

It's actually pretty astonishing when you get a sense of the scale of it, especially from the air. This area covers pretty much the Eastern half of Washington, not exactly a small state. Plus some of N. Idaho. And that's basalt, not exactly a soft squishy rock. LOL The amount of water must have been incredible.

Ben -- this is such an excellent video with Randall's cogent summaries with the maps, but then just letting the stunning landforms speak for themselves. As an Easterner, I've only been to Colorado around Boulder and to California around San Francisco. As stunned as I was to see the amazing geology of those areas, watching Randall's and Graham Hancock's videos about the megafloods of the Scablands years ago was gobsmacking! AND now this great drone footage is a profound contribution to their work. I don't understand how anyone, however hidebound, who has the least grasp of hydrogeology, could disagree with Randall's clarifying exposition of the creation of these landforms. Thanks for the work that all of you are doing, but especially for your lucid explanations of all your research and the well-made videos of so many sites. Cheers!

Imagine what anyone living there would have seen when the floods started. How terrifying would that have been seeing a hundreds of feet wall of water bulldozing the landscape.

("solen sortner or jorden synker ned i havet stjernerne falder fra himlen heden brænder højt og lejer ildtagfat med himlen) = (the sun darkens the earth descends beneath the ocean the fire burns high to the heavens) when they said the sun darkens i think about a asteroid debree covering the sun (THE SATRS FALLING FROM HEAVEN = ASTEROIDS GUYS... and now we talking about the earth descending to the ocean (MEGAFLOOD) those stories of atlantis and ragnarok are so similar randall carlson is the reason i believe they are based on true events!!!

This has one HELL OF AN OUTRO!! Of epic proportions.. should give everyone chills looking at that. And it's a crazy place when I was there, we rented jetskis down in one of those rivers in a canyon. I had NO IDEA about any of this... most don't. Seriously great video.

Randall Carlson really is my intellectual hero. I think his work is the most important of our time.

At the 13 min mark that canyon wall is a record of each mega flood to hit this area of thousands of years

Well put together video Ben. The music was phenominal and went perfectly with the scenery.

Loved the birds and the music! And of course the information. Thank you

This was superb Ben.

The TN valley is a focal point of the same era flooding that eventually fanned out into Mississippi and Louisiana. Started at the St Lawrence Bay and also entry from the Atlantic coast, Ny and Nj. The Hudson Bay bursted its natural dam and flooded the Midwest/Ohio valley and created the Mississippi river valley. Maps are awesome.

Water ripped and craved the landscape like an ocean wave rolling over a sand castle.

Was fortunate to find this show a few years back … it makes me feel good to know that I’m not the only one that’s open to always question everything the main stream is trying to tell us. Doesn’t matter what it is … if there’s any chance for people to profit from it I’m mostly inclined to not believe it it first until it can be proven otherwise.

If I were younger, healthier and could arrange vacation times, I would absolutely love to join in on these treks and adventures... It would definitely be a great educational experience and I'd actually have something to tell my peeps about, once I got home. I'd also love to see so many of the other world wonders like Egypt, Rome, Peru and so on... I guess I had my chance way back when but didn't even think about these new revelations that have come to light recently... due in large part to the people like Ben, Randall, Graham Hancock and all similar heroes putting these excellent programs on the internet.

I have been extremely fortunate to have visited both Rome and Peru. Peru will absolutely bend you mind. The only words that can express how I felt about the ancient megalithic sites in Peru are, "Wait a minute, somethings not right here." The advanced technology used to carve and shape stone just don't add up with what we have been taught about ancient humans. The scale of the Nazca lines are equally as intriguing. If anyone tells you that it nothing to do with being made to be visible from the sky is crazy. Actually the lines are a window into the technology they once possessed and that would include the ability to hover in order to design the intricate lines of the shapes. As I said, it is completely mind bending.

I'm nearly 70 now, retired on a small pension and after two botched spinal surgeries, I can barely stand up straight or walk without a walker and have difficulty negotiating stairs. What I meant in my comment was for younger, healthier and more fit people with a deep interest in this kind of stuff is to go for it while you still can.

The soundtrack at the end is dope AF man!

Check out some of Nick Zentner's videos on the geologic history of this and other regions of the pacific north west. He has several excellent videos on the Missoula floods and how they shaped the geologic features that we see today.

I grew up in Missoula and the flood was taught early, early on. It was great living there!

Ben's the best. Ben compliments Randall and his best efforts. Total class act😁

This is an amazing video ! Thanks to Randall Carlson for the presentation and information about Scablands and the megafloods. Simply amazing and something that should be studied intensely until we all know the truth ! Thanks also to Ben from UnchartedX for the upload of this video and for introducing me to Fiftydollardynasty, particularly the track "Deos" that accompanies the video with the aerial drone footage. It really matches the incredible scenery and seems to speak to us saying "look, the evidence is in front of you, shout it out to the world." I've come along late to all this megalith, pre-dynastic part of our world history but am totally convinced there's far more to be learnt, especially from Egypt and the areas being denied to us. Thanks again, particularly to Ben whose videos showed me the light ! I would love to see you and some of your content featured on GBNews. They're not afraid to broadcast "alternative" viewpoints and they have Neil Oliver as one of their presenters.

Great summary and highlights of the 2021 Scablands tours. I was there!

Wow, what a great injection of wonderment!

Ben thanks for sharing, you editing is off the charts!!!

It's so obvious it wasn't gradual. I also read that the grand Canyon was formed quickly from the release of most of the great Salt lake. A lake many many times greater than what we know of today

I'm laid up for a few days. This made a boring sat night a lot better

Fantastic video! You helped me to remember the best, by far, field trip I’ve ever been on. You captured the impossibilities of the landscapes and essence of the group. Thank you so much.

Oh my God what an absolutely terrifying thought! You could probably feel it and hear it before you could see it coming and I'm sure the people in the area thought it was the Gods coming to punish them. I would have preferred to have been right at ground zero, rather than having "survived" that unimaginable cataclysm. It's incomprehensible! Probably very few people did survive!

Great footage at the end! Never seen such a great perspective before,… WOW!

There should be a massive search at the outlet of many rivers and also where shorelines were pre glacial meltoff . That is where alot of the answers may be. For example, how about where the Nile empties off Egypt ? How about under the sea off Egypt, where the shoreline was pre Glacial meltoff ? All those enigmatic stone cutting tools have to be somewhere ? There's probably also alot of answers in the sediment where these great floods emptied out into the sea. May even be preserved. Love the channel and thanks for the interesting videos.

It's a whole lot easier to say "let's scour the continental shelf for evidence of ancient things" than to actually excavate the delta fan of a river a hundred feet deep in the ocean looking for evidence of human artifacts that are buried alongside and under thousands of years worth of flood and river silt. Is the stuff there? Probably. Is it lost forever as a result? Probably.
