In September of 2023, researchers detected a strange vibration all across the planet. They traced it back to a massive tsunami off the coast of Greenland, but the sound went on even after the wave was gone. As in, for nine full days. This is the story of a bizarre set of circumstances that led to this weird wave, and that researchers can tell about our future based on this event.

    I wanna make a joke when he said, figuring out the cryptic messages the planet is sending, but this wasn't all that cryptic. The Earth just… (puts on sungalases)… waved. 😂

    So, this is an interesting topic, but I feel this video seriously lacks clarity. No measures in SI units are given, only indications like "stories" and "Niagara falls", and the location isn't disclosed, just "Greenland", the world's largest island.
    I get that Americans, on average, are uneducated and scared of the metric system, but especially to an international audience, these measures aren't very useful at all.
    For a Science communication channel, I expected better, more so because it feels like you underestimate or even infantilize your audience this way.

    Ah, yes. 5:50. I wondered when this would become a climate change story. Kept this one at bay a bit longer this time.

    No. This is wrong. It was aliens. They have a secret base in northern Greenland. It's true. I know it is. It was on TikTok. 👽

    Climate Change is Natural. The man made climate scam living in the Taxpool sucking up everyone else's money isn't though. The climate scam sloshed back and forward every 87 seconds. Ka Ching, Ka Ching, Ka Ching…. The grant money was flowing as fast as they could buy wine and loose women.
