An ode to the hardworking scientists who uncover the planet's mysteries and carry under-sized hammers. Onward!!! Directed by Thomas McDonnell and The Amoeba People
I suppose that they pretend to show themselves like 19-century old geologists, with shirt and tie and, of course, by those times, Estwing still had not yet the rock hummer monopoly.
As a geology student, I cannot tell you how much I or everyone else in the CSUS geology department love this song. It's playing in my head whenever the teacher holds down a barbed wire fence for the class to cross lol.
I know. It's the geologists fault. They are boulder than most, they lead healthy lives and take tonics seriously. They lava good joke but get hammered and stoned too much. So when dealing with Geos, be gneiss and don't take them for granite. Bada bing, bada boom.
60's hell! I worked at Lockheed Martin BEFORE it was LMCO, and the nerds (rocket scientists) still look the same. Lots of rockhounds in their ranks, too.
You know, as an incoming undergrad student, I've been undecided about which branch of science to choose as my major. But after seeing this epicness...yeah, looks I'm gonna be a geologist.
for anyone who wants to sing along while watching this, i typed the lyrics down (i could use this for myself but you could use this comment too lol) [Verse 1] They carry tiny hammers, they're chipping at the crust Like a John Fante novel, they're inclined to ask the dust Converging on the continents, they're fearless and they're brave They're cruising down through canyons and exploring every cave Uncovering the mysteries of the planet's history Deep into the Cambrian for all the world to see [Chorus] The geologists are coming Yes, they're trudging down the hill When they say that mountain's young They're talking ten to twenty mil They're classifying rocks from destruction to rebirth The geologists are coming, they're converging on the Earth [Verse 2] The "G" is for granite, the "E" is for eon "O" is the outcrop which they're inclined to be on "L" is for the layers showing how things have evolved The "O" is for "Oh my, another puzzle to be solved!" The second "G" is meant to give a little bit more insight For nine times out of ten, a granite rock is granodiorite The "I" is for igneous, the "S" is for sand The "T" is for the timeline that they're holding in their hand [Chorus] The geologists are coming, they're emerging from their tents Braving steep volcanoes to explore volcanic vents They take note on the processes that shape the planet's crust They're driven to inquire, explore this Earth they must [Outro] The geologists are coming Yes, they're trudging down the hill When they say that mountain's young They're talking ten to twenty mil They're classifying rocks from destruction to rebirth The geologists are coming, they're converging on the Earth
I'd like to see you guys dressed up as Catholic monks (priests, or bishops) and do one called: THE PROTESTANTS ARE COMING! As for this video: brilliant!
The only thing that bugs me is that they weren't using the proper Estwing hammers.
The correct hammer must be long, with a wooden handle, capable of being a staff.
Right on - mind you, the price of Estwing hammers has increased about 100X since my young days.
Well, I'm pretty sure they are expensive
I suppose that they pretend to show themselves like 19-century old geologists, with shirt and tie and, of course, by those times, Estwing still had not yet the rock hummer monopoly.
Well when you are making a low budget geology video it is not always possible to get the right equipment on a shoestring budget.
As a geology student, I cannot tell you how much I or everyone else in the CSUS geology department love this song. It's playing in my head whenever the teacher holds down a barbed wire fence for the class to cross lol.
MYSPACE TOM!❤
for nine times out of ten a granite rock is granodiorite. SIMPLY EPIC (as a geologist)
I know. It's the geologists fault. They are boulder than most, they lead healthy lives and take tonics seriously. They lava good joke but get hammered and stoned too much. So when dealing with Geos, be gneiss and don't take them for granite.
Bada bing, bada boom.
I knew a geologist. She could be described as 'spathic'.
@@AlbertaGeek C'mon, don't be a piece of schist
@@anthonythompson4463 Whaddaya mean? I'm gneiss guy!
Right on! RoCK On!! I will never get tired of this video. LOL! As a geologist, I approve! ⚒🤠
Next time I go into the field I am going to dress like an 60's NASA engineer.
TheFluffyDuck It's my dream to be like Gene Cernan looking at rocks, too.
It was necessary to wear mosquito net, raincoat and rubber boots )))))
Or a mormon
60's hell! I worked at Lockheed Martin BEFORE it was LMCO, and the nerds (rocket scientists) still look the same. Lots of rockhounds in their ranks, too.
Plus a bolo tie.
Damn they were laying down rhymes like it was clastic sediment
You know, as an incoming undergrad student, I've been undecided about which branch of science to choose as my major. But after seeing this epicness...yeah, looks I'm gonna be a geologist.
As a geologist, palaeontologist, and Bestie Boys fan I say... you rule!
How is this so underrated? less then 200k in 8 years is criminal for this master piece.
This is great! Can't wait to show my daughter that us rock nerds are cool. LOL
walter was she convinced?
Who's fault is it? This is classic. I love it!
I've loved this song since it first came out. I play it before every field excursion!
My teacher showed this to me in middle school and then it got recommended to me now. And I gotta say it's still kickass
This totally made my day! Ended far too quickly! :( Please make more!!
Wow .What a Song For Geology Student When They will go For Field Trip And listening of This song Will be Fantastic
Hahaha! This is fantastic, I wish it was longer!
too sweet, makes nerdiness hot again..not that it ever wasn't
Pure genius guys. You gotta luv us geologists.
Masterpiece.
These songs are the only things keeping me sain
New favourite group.
This is the BEST ever!!!
This song is my life!
I can’t stop watching this.
This is some good schist
This video proves what we all know... Geologists are engineers but WITH a personality.
Oh brother.... I've never worn slacks nor a tie into the field...
Our professor linked this video in his papers. I thought it would be relevant to the topic - well, I was not disappointed.
That was AWESOME!!!
HAMMER DROP!!!!
LOL just found this love it
This song is so good 🧡🧡🧡
Hi, Mr.H, it's me Brooklyn. I was in your e.l.d. class last year!
I love your songs so much!
Yes but what do they think of my obsidian knife?
Okay but like
Who else is here because they have a SICK science teacher?
Beautiful! :D
the best song ever!!
Hi, brothers!
"Mente et malleo".
Greetings from Russia.
I remember you showed us this in 5th grade Mr.Hamilton
Damn right we are.
Happy Geologist Day to all Us Geologist who keep the world rotating on it’s axis.
This is amazing
Amazing teacher I'm so glad to be a kinda famous teacher 😂 YOUR AMAZING 5TH GRADE TEACHER
loved it...
Subduction leads to orogeny!
thank you
I'm not trespassing! I am a geologist!
Best birthday present ever!!!!!
Someone tell me why I'm sitting at a grateful dead concert but my son wants to hear this lol.
damn, those bars was low key *FIRE* 🔥
Just got shown in my geology class
Oh my!!
for anyone who wants to sing along while watching this, i typed the lyrics down (i could use this for myself but you could use this comment too lol)
[Verse 1]
They carry tiny hammers, they're chipping at the crust
Like a John Fante novel, they're inclined to ask the dust
Converging on the continents, they're fearless and they're brave
They're cruising down through canyons and exploring every cave
Uncovering the mysteries of the planet's history
Deep into the Cambrian for all the world to see
[Chorus]
The geologists are coming
Yes, they're trudging down the hill
When they say that mountain's young
They're talking ten to twenty mil
They're classifying rocks from destruction to rebirth
The geologists are coming, they're converging on the Earth
[Verse 2]
The "G" is for granite, the "E" is for eon
"O" is the outcrop which they're inclined to be on
"L" is for the layers showing how things have evolved
The "O" is for "Oh my, another puzzle to be solved!"
The second "G" is meant to give a little bit more insight
For nine times out of ten, a granite rock is granodiorite
The "I" is for igneous, the "S" is for sand
The "T" is for the timeline that they're holding in their hand
[Chorus]
The geologists are coming, they're emerging from their tents
Braving steep volcanoes to explore volcanic vents
They take note on the processes that shape the planet's crust
They're driven to inquire, explore this Earth they must
[Outro]
The geologists are coming
Yes, they're trudging down the hill
When they say that mountain's young
They're talking ten to twenty mil
They're classifying rocks from destruction to rebirth
The geologists are coming, they're converging on the Earth
This is to the tune of Cake's The Distance, right? I am not going crazy?
The geologists are coming!
I'd like to see you guys dressed up as Catholic monks (priests, or bishops) and do one called: THE PROTESTANTS ARE COMING!
As for this video: brilliant!
I suscribed and liked!
I’ve never been happier :)
yaas alt kings go off 😩✨
"The geologists are coming!!!" *proceeds to hide from the geologists before they destruct some parts of the Earth throughout the song"
Those rock hammers are...precious.
My hammer is decidedly NOT tiny . . .
Now I need to look up what mountains are *only* "10-20 mil" years old... Even the Himalayas are twice that!
Aaack! They're wearing office shirts and TIES!!!
should've been plaids
They look like Mormon geologists lol
Funny, but get them a rock pick and not a ball peen and tack hammer!
Mr hedgepath though 😵
this is so gneiss
Has any geologist (or anyone) seen the "River of moving earth" youtube video? I'm dying to know what is causing it.
OMG this is the video my geography teacher showed my class then made us do a rap about geology
Anyone else hear this in class
Its catchy
Fucking gold
Classic
lol mr.hedgepeth you r so funny hahaha
Hi Angelina...it's me Brooklyn!
Derpy Dudes Hi
what kind of rock are they standing in front of ?
What one is mr Scott
Hi Howie hosking
This is so r/fellowkids but I actually love it.
Do you guys even edit your audio?
That’s what they did. They edited the singers voice.
No puns. I'm just here because on EOS.
Dr. Lehrmann brought me here 😔
Why isnt this a meme
:-)
yo its been a while hows it been Mr hedgepeth, its me caleb by the way
pls give me the lyrics
hi teacher
+Tyler Webster hi
loll :D
lik ths vido or di
hahahahahaha
is this cake?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
As a PG in the mining industry I think this is super gay. However, I won't bash you if you like it. To each his own.
This didn’t help me
no offence but you need a better microphone
