Most lucid explanation yet of the Caribbean. Totally agree with other comments, student did an outstanding job of breaking it down in a convincing fashion. Personally I've searched pretty far and wide trolling and have come up with a complete blank on Caribbean geology. Not anymore. Thxs. The "Transextension/Transpression" could probably have been expanded upon that is the 1st I've seen of that. It immediately reminded of the basins in western Nevada + Utah; pretty sure something similar happened out there. Also, the idea of a "submerged tectonic plate" was defintely something I haven't heard before. Really learned from this vid thxs.
❤❤❤❤ thank you for sharing your knowledge. Honestly solved an old mystery of mine which you explained brilliantly The pull apart basin always baffled me

Suggestion: At approximately 4:20, "The greater Antilles arc of Cuba, Hispaniola and other small islands..." it should simply state: "The greater Antilles arc of Cuba, La Española and Puerto Rico..." Basically following the directional arrows from the video. You should just mention Puerto Rico instead of saying other small islands, because it could be interpreted as mentioning the "Lesser Antilles". I believe the latter are not part of the explanation describing the specific tectonic movement . And YES... great job at putting this all together and using the references as well, really nice to explain to kids in the Caribbean. A Thumbs Up and thanks for your hard work.
Thank you. Super informative and very pleaseny to watch!
Good job. Nice explanation of a complex plate.
I like the jazz music in the background

Total Enjoyment!
Excellent explanation! It's so hard to find accurate information about the Caribbean plate!
Thank you!
I believe the Caribbean was created by NOAH'S FLOOD and the islands we see today is the aftermath of plateaus
