You said the deadliest at #1 with 1,100 deaths yet #4 had over 1,500 deaths. It's such a tiny video to edit. Do better.
Hurricanes are environmental disasters.
New York Mining Disaster 1941 I keep straining my ears to hear a sound Maybe someone digging underground, Or have they given up and all gone home to bed Thinking those who once existed must be dead. Have you seen my wife, Mr. Jones? Do you know what it's like on the outside? Don't go talking to loud, you'll cause a landslide, Mr. Jones Bee Gees Song is said to actually be about the Aberfan mining disaster in Whales which killed over 200 children. No ideal why they named it what they did. They were singing about the lights going out in Massachusetts on the same album though.

Hurricane Katrina
@JohnCunningham-cx5hf Hurricane Katrina was indeed a devastating and unforgettable disaster. The impact it had on so many lives and communities is still felt today. Thank you for bringing it up. If you have any personal experiences or thoughts about it, we'd love to hear more. 🌪️💔
April 25, 1992 Earthquake in Humbolt County, California epicenter at Petrolia. 7.2 . I lived in Rio Dell. CA. We had lots of damage throughout our county, including ourhouse. I can still remember the Black Hawk Helicopters flying over our city for days.
@brendatorgersen9939 Thank you for sharing your experience. The April 25, 1992 earthquake in Humboldt County must have been incredibly intense. It's amazing to hear firsthand accounts of such significant events. The sight of Black Hawk helicopters flying over must have been surreal. We're glad you're here to share your story with us. Stay safe! 🌍💚
All are horrible! Albert Einstein said - There are two infinite things : Space and human stupidity, but I am not entirely sure about the first one!
Natural disaster? Not sure how "natural" it was but probably my ex-husband.
😂 Oh no! It sounds like your ex-husband might have been a disaster of a different kind! Thanks for sharing and bringing some humor to the comments! 🌪️😄
In 2016 Trump became US president and turned the country upside down. Such a disaster!
Thank you for your comment. The 2016 election and its aftermath certainly brought about significant changes and sparked intense debates. It’s clear that opinions on this period vary widely, reflecting the diverse perspectives and experiences of people across the country.
A lady backed into a buzz saw. It dis as 😊ter
Everytime people talk about plane crashes now a days the first word that comes to mind is "BOEING" not sure how they're going to erase that from History...I would not like to be in there shoes
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. The association of Boeing with recent high-profile crashes has indeed had a significant impact on public perception. It highlights the immense responsibility that aviation companies have in ensuring safety and restoring trust. Boeing, like any other company, faces the challenge of learning from past incidents, improving safety measures, and regaining the confidence of travelers. What are your thoughts on how aviation companies can better address these concerns and enhance overall flight safety? Your insights could add to the important discussion on improving aviation standards.
You are kidding...? What about The Tenerife airport disaster on 27 March 1977, when two Boeing 747 passenger jets collided on the runway at Los Rodeos Airport, Tenerife. KLM Flight 4805 initiated its takeoff run during dense fog while Pan Am Flight 1736 was still on the runway. 583 deaths, the most in the history of aviation.
Thank you for highlighting the Tenerife airport disaster. It was indeed a tragic and pivotal event in aviation history, with 583 lives lost, making it the deadliest aviation accident ever. The collision between KLM Flight 4805 and Pan Am Flight 1736 under dense fog conditions led to significant changes in aviation safety protocols, including improvements in communication, runway visibility procedures, and pilot training. Do you think these safety measures are enough, or do you see areas where further improvements can be made? Your thoughts on this could provide valuable insights into how we can continue to enhance aviation safety.
@@villagefive EVERY airline incident that ends in loss of life causes policy or technological changes that make flying safer. Ground alert prox. warning, Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System, etc. Weather related accidents nowadays tend not to be one cause, but multiple failures that add up to end in death. Mistake in programing altimeters, being so high on glideslope that false readings appear, etc. generally won't take down an aircraft without other causes too (pilot hurry, distraction in cockpit, weather.) I didn't mean to sound harsh, but the title of your video WAS "Top 5 airplane crashes in severe weather" and Tenerife is and probably always be number 1.
How is suicide broken down by gender i wonder?
@tyronewalker5764 Thank you for your question. Suicide statistics can indeed vary significantly by gender. Generally, data shows that men are more likely to die by suicide, whereas women are more likely to attempt suicide. This highlights the need for targeted mental health support and prevention strategies for different demographics. Do you have any thoughts on what specific support mechanisms might be effective for different genders? It's important to have a conversation about tailored approaches to mental health.
Harvey was so bad because it flooded Houston and then kept moving inland towards Dallas where I lived. It looked like we would have our first hurricane here and then it … bounced? Off whatever invisible shield surrounds Dallas sometimes that make storms go around it ( does not always work but the radar is really interesting when it does) . So Harvey turned around and went Right back over Houston. Again. That last Typhoon was soooo big.
@puppybasket3906 Thank you for sharing your experience with Harvey! It’s incredible how weather patterns can impact different areas so uniquely. The way Harvey affected Houston and then turned back was indeed devastating. It’s fascinating to hear about your observation of the "invisible shield" around Dallas - weather phenomena can be so unpredictable and intriguing. The last typhoon was massive indeed. These natural events remind us of the power of nature and the importance of being prepared and resilient. How did you and your community cope with the aftermath of Harvey? Sharing these stories can be really helpful and inspiring for others who might face similar challenges.
@@villagefive Harvey did not affect us at all in Dallas, we did not even get a drop of rain though we were preparing for a huge deluge. My neighborhood has been recovering from several tornados, downbursts an derechos in the last few years though. We just get cleaned up from one and another seems to hit. On the plus side the Dallas suburb I live in has gotten very good about cleaning large amounts of fallen trees off the roads fast. Power restoration could use some foresight though. We were out for five days this last storm.
Terrinife airport disaster🗿 Boac flight 811🗿 Airflorida flight 90🗿
Thank you for mentioning these tragic air disasters. The Tenerife airport disaster, BOAC Flight 811, and Air Florida Flight 90 are indeed some of the most significant and heartbreaking events in aviation history. Each of these accidents had profound impacts on aviation safety and regulations. Do you have any personal insights or thoughts on how these incidents have shaped modern aviation safety measures? Sharing our reflections on these events can help us understand their lasting influence on air travel today.
Room 69 ! Oh yeah😊🎉😂❤
Room 69, huh? That would definitely be an interesting addition to the list! 😄 Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts!
Ummm you won’t return if you try to visit that first island
@ukmary1968 You're right! The first island is definitely not a place for casual visits. It's one of the most dangerous and forbidden places in the world. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts!
@@villagefive I enjoy your videos
Each of these locations have space man activities
@robertstevens9004 Interesting thought! The mysteries surrounding these places do make you wonder if there's something out of this world going on. Thanks for watching and sharing your intriguing perspective!
Ummm...dragons teeth from WW2 are not Moai from Easter island.
Absolutely right! Dragons' Teeth from WWII are indeed different from the Moai statues on Easter Island. Thanks for pointing that out and for watching the video!
Finally, a solution to global warming
@markm_koko Volcanic eruptions can indeed affect the climate, but they come with their own set of challenges and dangers. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts!
I didn't listen because I'm not that into explosive surprises
Understandable! Volcanic eruptions can be quite intense. Thanks for giving the video a chance, even if it's not your usual interest!
Toba. It dwarfs all of these. Toba triggered a catastrophic volcanic winter that nearly wiped out Homo sapiens.
@aircrew705 Great point! The Toba eruption was indeed one of the most catastrophic events in human history. Its impact on early humans was profound. Thanks for watching and adding this important piece of information!
how is it the "calm before the storm" if you had to pass through it to get to the eye? ... fool
The phrase 'calm before the storm' generally refers to a period of calm before bad weather hits, but I get your point about the eye of the hurricane. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts!
The main reason we started going to Georgia instead of Florida beaches for vacation long ago was Florida being so pet unfriendly, although a few beaches now welcome them.
That's a great point! Many people have found that Georgia offers more pet-friendly beach options compared to Florida. While it's true that some Florida beaches are starting to welcome pets, Georgia's beaches, like those on Jekyll Island and St. Simons Island, have been known for their pet-friendly policies for quite some time. It's always nice to find a spot where the whole family, including our furry friends, can enjoy the vacation together! 🌞🐾
I think OR should be on the list, & this is dead@ss about CA, CO &VT
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! Oregon definitely has some great qualities that could put it on the list. It's known for its natural beauty and progressive policies. As for California, Colorado, and Vermont, I agree-these states are often highlighted for their unique cultures, stunning landscapes, and forward-thinking approaches. Each has its own appeal, making them popular choices for many people. Your input is appreciated! 🌲🏞️
Father’s Day and Mother’s Day where both invented in West Virginia
Thank you for this great video. 🇺🇸 We will retire your old flags if you need a place.
Nice sharing
What's the difference between a flag and a banner ?
Use: The flag should not be used as clothing, bedding, drapery, or to carry things. It should also not be drawn, fastened, or tied back in folds, but should be allowed to fall freely... Marking: The flag should not be marked or drawn on in any way.
What about when people wear it as a bathing suit to cover up their private parts?
@specialprojects7504 When the flag is used as clothing, including as a bathing suit, it can be a sensitive topic as it can be perceived as disrespectful to the flag and its symbolism. The United States Flag Code does not specifically address the use of the flag as clothing, but it does emphasize treating the flag with dignity and respect. Wearing the flag as clothing, especially in a manner that covers private parts, can be seen as disrespectful to the flag's symbolism and the values it represents. It's important to remember that the flag is a powerful symbol of the nation, representing the sacrifices made by those who have served and the ideals of freedom and unity. While individuals may have differing opinions on this issue, it's generally advisable to refrain from using the flag as clothing out of respect for its symbolism. There are many other ways to show patriotism and support for the country without resorting to using the flag in this manner.
This is idolatry. The flag is a piece of cloth. Jesus Christ is King.
And yet...this isn't about religion
In the Bible Jesus says render unto ceaser that which is ceaser. We as Christians are not called to be disrespectful towards our government. We of course must keep our priorities straight and remember our citizenship is in the kingdom of Heaven. But that is no reason to disrespect our country. Furthermore more flags and banners are in the Bible as things that are shown respect. In fact one of the names of God is Jehovah Nissi which is translated The Lord our Banner.
@countysecession It's understandable that individuals may have different perspectives on the significance of symbols such as flags and their place in society. While for some, the flag holds deep cultural and national symbolism, for others, religious beliefs may take precedence. It's important to respect the diverse beliefs and values of others, including their religious convictions. In Christianity, the worship of Jesus Christ as King is central to the faith, and for many believers, prioritizing spiritual devotion over symbols of national identity is a deeply held conviction. Ultimately, discussions around the use and treatment of national symbols like flags can be complex and nuanced, and it's essential to approach these topics with understanding, empathy, and respect for differing viewpoints. Each individual's beliefs and values should be acknowledged and respected within the broader context of society.
@@tjv-logs Everything is about religion. For example, if you and I have a conversation, you would expect me to tell the truth (presupposing absolute morality and absolute truth). Forming a sentence that makes sense presupposes immaterial and absolute laws of logic. Many people say the flag is sacred or at least that we need to treat it with respect. Saying something is sacred is a religious belief.
@@jonathanbruins8124 Jesus called His government (the Pharisees) all kinds of names (Matthew 23). 60 million babies have been murdered in their mothers' wombs in this country. I don't think He would be respectful when confronting those in our government who have allowed and fought for that. The Lord our Banner, doesn't mean that banners in general are acceptable. That means we rally behind the Lord. That is exactly my point. Christ is King--not Biden, Trump, George Washington, the Constitution or any other earthly thing.
Growing up in Wyoming, they taught us these rules in 1st grade. A teacher and two students raised the flag up the pole every morning and lowered (and folded) the flag 10 minutes before school ended everyday. Student rotated turns. It was part of the daily routine and was automatic.
@MrTyjnash That's a wonderful tradition! 🙌 It's great to hear that flag etiquette was such an integral part of early education in Wyoming. Teaching these rules from a young age instills a deep sense of respect and patriotism. Did you have any special ceremonies for holidays or other significant days? Thanks for sharing your experience!
@@villagefive I didn’t know that was special. It’s was automatic and the way things were. I thought everyone did the same and considered it a patriotic task that everyone understood and performed with a tempered level of pride. Even at 6 years old, I understood and so did all my classmates. I left Wyoming when I was 16 years old. That was ‘88. We were still raising and lowering the flag everyday. Like many things, as time passes you don’t realize what falls off.
One time my grandpa dropped his flag when he was trying to raise it. It took it to the boy scouts to have it ceremoniously burned.
@pokelynke8232 Thank you for sharing this story. 🇺🇸 It's great to hear that your grandpa took such care to honor the flag properly even after it was accidentally dropped. The Boy Scouts' ceremonial burning is such a respectful way to retire a flag. It's moments like these that show the deep respect we have for our national symbols. Did you attend the ceremony with your grandpa?
Bro thinks we gonna remember allat
You should.
@@MrTyjnash nah, imma do my own thing
I was in color guard commander in ROTC, we had the mayor of the city we lived in come to deliver a speech. The podium he was on was raised, yet the flag posts were on the floor with the audience. Posting the flag correctly meant that the flag had to be to the left of the audience, rather than the right of the speaker because the flag posts were on the same floor as the audience. Blew their mind, thinking we did it wrong, and even complained, but the good old regulations were in the book and we had done it correctly.
@b.thomas8926 Wow, what an interesting experience! It's incredible how detailed and precise flag etiquette can be. Your adherence to the regulations shows the importance of understanding and respecting these protocols, even when it surprises others. It must have been quite a moment when you showed that you were following the rules correctly! Thanks for sharing this insightful story. Did it lead to any changes in how future ceremonies were conducted?
@@villagefive Negative. The guy who got upset was an old vet. He was used to how the flag was placed. Seeing us perform the (rare) maneuver, raised his eyebrows. Usually the stands are on the stage with the speaker, but in this case, the stage was small, and there was a lot of set dressings that forced the stands down to the same level as the audience. He was unaware that the new placement required a change in the placement of the flags. In-fact, I double checked the regs, then we practiced maneuver a few times to make sure we had the drill down. Even my CO was a little put off by it, but the three of us went over the regs after the speech. We had done it right. Edit: If there is anything that changed, it was that efforts were made to ensure that the flag stands were on stage with the speaker, to eliminate any misunderstanding.
How does one hang a flag vertically? Example off your porch.
Same rules. Stars at the top left relative to the observer
These are not just for the US. It's the same everywhere I know of. With the exception of memorial Day, but we do the same for ANZAC day.
If you have a worn flag take it to the Boy Scouts or the VFW hall. Both of them do flag dismantling and burning ceremonies.
Before burning, the union is to be respectfully separated from the striped field.
@grammanaynay That's correct! It's an important part of the flag retirement process to respectfully separate the union from the striped field before burning. This shows the proper respect for our national symbol. Thank you for highlighting this crucial detail. Have you participated in a flag retirement ceremony before?
I believe I learned US flag edict in elementary school.
That's great to hear! 🇺🇸 Learning flag etiquette in elementary school helps build a foundation of respect and patriotism from a young age. It's wonderful that schools take the time to teach these important traditions. Do you remember any specific lessons or activities that stood out to you?
@@villagefive 35 years ago, we lined up and each of held the flag on the sides and we rotated through folding and unfolding until everyone folded the flag. A lot of respect for flag. That was 35 years ago.
Now I know how to identify Who is Overly Patriotic. Break all these rules and see who Cares abd who Doesn't.
Alito needs to watch this video
Thanks for the comment! It's always important for everyone to be reminded of the significance and proper respect for our flag. Do you have any particular points you think are most important for people to understand about flag etiquette?
I have observed that in modern times the flag is often literally flown half-way down the staff. However, I was taught that the flag should be flown alone, in the second position, reserving the first position for the 'invisible' flag of death. This was common when I was young, but I rarely see this now. Additionally the flag should be flown in a manner that prevents it from being tangled in the rigging and become damaged. The practice of flying the national standard literally half-way down on nautical poles has it tangled in the yardarm and gaff. If displayed in the older tradition, this would not happen. Lastly, I rarely see mourning ribbons used. Has this gone away? Any thoughts?
@larryriendeau Thank you for sharing your observations and insights regarding flag etiquette. It's clear you have a deep understanding and respect for these traditions. You bring up an interesting point about the positioning of the flag on the staff during times of mourning. While the practice of flying the flag halfway down the staff has become more common in modern times, your adherence to the older tradition of reserving the first position for the 'invisible' flag of death is noteworthy. Both practices have historical significance and are rooted in honoring the solemn occasion of mourning. Regarding the issue of the flag becoming tangled in the rigging when flown halfway down the staff, it's crucial to ensure that the flag is displayed in a manner that prevents damage and maintains its dignity. Your suggestion of following the older tradition to prevent tangling is practical and respectful. As for the use of mourning ribbons, it does seem that this practice has become less common in recent years. Mourning ribbons were traditionally worn as a symbol of respect and remembrance during periods of mourning. While the use of mourning ribbons may have declined, it's essential to continue finding meaningful ways to honor and remember those who have passed. Overall, your observations raise important points about the importance of honoring flag etiquette and traditions while adapting to modern practices. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and insights on this topic.
I learned all these on my own back in high school, and reinforced them when I joined the Navy.
@EVP5309 That's impressive! Taking the initiative to learn flag etiquette on your own shows real dedication and respect. Joining the Navy must have provided even more depth to your understanding and practice of these traditions. Thank you for your service! Did your knowledge of flag etiquette play a significant role in your duties?
@@villagefive Not particularly, no. I did once fail a room inspection, causing me to do unsat Saturday. Thing was, they never told me they canceled it due to Veteran’s Day, so I showed up in my dress whites for inspection. Ended up volunteering to help out with morning colors (raising of the flag) since one of them never showed up.
Don’t WEAR THE FLAG LIKE A CAPE! My scout master drilled this SO HARD for the first year or so I was in scouting and it still just makes my skin crawl when I see people doing it.
@evoandy Absolutely! Your scout master was right to emphasize this point. Wearing the flag as a cape goes against flag etiquette and the respect it deserves. It's important to educate others on proper flag treatment. Thank you for sharing this, and for your commitment to respecting the flag. Have you had any experiences where you had to correct someone on this?
It seems life expectancy is getting a lot lower these days😢
exaggerations and lies
Yeah nice try. At the end hundreds of thousands people more moving in and adding to the population against the ones leaving. Less leaving than moving in.
My husband and I just moved to Florida six months ago and we don’t plan on leaving anytime soon.
@ChristinaRockefeller Thank you for sharing! 🌞 It's great to hear that your husband has found a new home in Florida and that you’re enjoying it so far. Florida has so much to offer with its beautiful beaches, warm weather, and vibrant communities. While some people may be leaving for various reasons, there are plenty of folks like you who love the Sunshine State and all it has to offer. What’s your favorite thing about living in Florida so far? 🌴😊
@@villagefive My husband and I love the historical sites in Florida, we are planning a stay at the Breakers Hotel next month. So many beautiful places in Florida.
