- Japan has gained another island after an undersea volcanic eruption 1,200 km south of Tokyo created a new landmass. The tiny island emerged following a series of eruptions that began last month near Iwoto island, part of the Ogasawara island chain in the western Pacific, according to experts.

This is how Japan expands its territories the non-violent way
Looks violent to me
Not for much
This is how Hunga Tonga started before the massive eruption with tsunami
And this volcano is also a large caldera
@@tomsmith7429 not as violent as they did during ww2
@@sc4ll1wag94 they should expand territory as often as america invades other countries (every decade).
Surely such a land would be unsafe to use 😱
Japan is an innovative country. It’s no surprise they’re creating islands now.
Yea
I think thats just the natural process of making of an island
Japan didnt make it nature did
Oops my bad I didn't see it as a joke
@@rencelen5186it was a joke
@@rencelen5186is joke
Perhaps Japan will name it Dokdo (Takeshima), so that they will leave Korea alone.
Fkn' badass that we as humans can observe and document the actual process of how our planet formed👏🏽
That's what I thought. To be able to witness what we were told about the beginnings of the lands we walk in is just beautiful and historical ♡
Then some nuthead comes along and rounds it all down to magic man in the sky playing sandbox.
@@alanwatts8239🤣🤣🤣
@@alanwatts8239 but you think a volcano created the earth?
@@coryleblancvolcanoes create islands, the earth itself was made by asteroids crashing into each other and being held together by gravity, need more?
While it will continue to grow, there is also the possibility it will shrink or disappear altogether. Erosion, the wind and the waves, will wear down that lava rock until it is below the surface.
Nooooooo
No not necessarily it will instead give life and if untouched by humans it will turn into a forrest.
@@aqeel-3771 yeah maybe in 500 years
@morphkogan8627 bro, the rock will barely have cooled from the eruption before we are pumping sand and dirt on that thing and building houses on it..
@@danbloch955 i dont think Japan suffers from this problem
China: We're forced to expand our maritime borders through a series of artifical islands that costs countless resources and brings international scrutiny
Japan: *AMATEURS*
🤓
Would so interesting got follow this islands’ development, I.e the plants and animals that will eventually settle there.
There's a new island called Nishinoshima in Japan (somewhere in the pacific). They are already doing an investigation of the ecosystem on that island already.
I heard that there are no plants yet, but there are some species of birds that settled, and maybe some bugs (not sure about bugs)
Chances are that unless future eruptions occur in the near term, this island will erode away like a lot of other volcanic islands. It takes consistent eruptive activity to build an island that can withstand the erosion of the ocean.
@@user-nu1mm6ks3rThere's probably no plants because the soil still hasn't formed from the rocks
@@triopical6884 I think that and there was a huge eruption in around 2016 that basically brought everything back to zero (I am not sure about the exact year)
It most likely won’t happen in our life time
Congrats Japanese for having their new ❤🎉
😂😂
New heart? And confetti?
Wow new land being formed in La Palma last year and now in Japan. I feel lucky to witness this in action. It's a fascinating process.
Unfortunately at the cost of peoples homes and jobs and sometimes lives. But life goes on I guess.
it happens more often than people think.
It won’t be like that for long. As well for the US.
@@rizkyadiyanto7922 right didn't it happen in Pakistan after they had a huge earthquake a few years back. People are living under rocks, man I swear.
Congratulations japan on getting a new healthy baby island 🎉🎉🎉❤❤
China: is mine?
China: that’s ours!
Likely story
US…That’s our new military base…Meanwhile the last 3 Governors of Okinawa have ran on a platform of complete removal of the US military…
i love both Japan and China, why can’t they just kiss😔
@@guest-cd7md in an ideal world that would have happened a long time ago.
Fantastic. Congratulations to Japan for small but sure land expansion.
With love and blessings.
💜💜💜
lol
Mother nature just loves Japan
Let's pray so the opposite of "Island Creation" don't happen to Japan.
lol
No? Japan have any natural disasters you ever think of, tsunami earth quake volcano hurricane blizzard landslide...
I think you meant to say mother nature hates Japan. Sitting on one of the most geologically active places on earth, it's ravaged by earthquakes, tsunamis, storms, eruptions and etc..
@@tenacious_takakumi2680and yet so many say that Japan is the "safest" place on earth. No, it simply isn't and it's also much more affected by climate change than let's say Europe or America!
@@yourcraziestm8 Europe is way worse.
“Scientists say the new island…will grow in size if the eruptions that began weeks ago continue” you sure don’t have to be a scientist to know that
This place should be livestreamed so we can get a timelapse of life starting & taking over this lil island
You mean China taking over the lil island, building a base and then polluting it so life can end before it begins
amazing view of a new island:)
I think this New Island will keep growing bigger in few years.
out of curiosities what's the surface water temperature over there?
Hot! As in boiling hot! As in I'm inside the cylinder of an engine hot! As in I'm in a pressure cooker hot! Hot! 🥵
as in there is quite literally a volcano erupting underneath my feet hot@@vipahman
Obviously under 100°C
It's what's driving global warming. All that hot lava in the ocean :P
@@axle.australian.patriot yeah totally, exactly the same thing when 3 billion people boil an egg for breakfast..
fun fact. It's right next to Iwo Jima!
after all these years Iwo Jima gets a new brother😁
I hate the fact that it's even bother to call this a new island cuz it's undoubtedly just going to widen the middle of Iwo Jima
Finally "iwo" and "jima" had a baby after all these years together.
I name it: Two Jima
With the way Japan named their Island. It most likely will end in jima. But i don't know what they would put at the start.
iwo yoko jima(iwo beside island)
"iwo" mean's "sulfur"
Technically it's not iwo but iou, but it's now called iwo.
New island formed before GTA 6 is crazy 😧
Lol😂
USA: our new base just built itself
They got oil in there 😮😂
Well there's enough dead Americans on that island considering how much blood was spent taking that Island during World War ii. But since we gave it back to Japan in 1968 I don't think we'll be claiming it ourselves
@@deannelson9565 👍🏻
@@deannelson9565just like war or any other important decision, “we” does not mean the average citizen, it means the higher ups.
😂😂😂😂😂
Amazing footage of an island being born.😮 Who's going to stake their claim while it's still hot real estate?
This island needs a democracy.
If it's within the sea waters boundary of Japan then Obviously it will be Japanese. But if it is near some disputed territory then it will be interesting.
Mine already
Oprah
Godzilla Island
China: It's mine!!!
It seems the update brought new exploration zones!
So this is how Volcano's are born, it's amazing how it just came out of nowhere.
There are more volcanoes under the oceans that on the surface of the planet
Islands you mean?
hurry Japan, claim it before China does!
One way of nature's blessing Japan with a new island 😅
Congratulations Japan ❤❤My favorite country❤
I hope China does not claim the new island.
New island just dropped guys! Beware tho It's so fresh it might be getting some patches in the next few days
Just imagine what would have happened if this occurred while the battle for Iwo Jima was taking place!
This is how Hunga Tonga volcano started
A massive caldera that creates a small island and then some years later it violently erupts destroying the island and creating a tsunami
This volcano is also a very large submarine caldera
China might be looking at their *old maps* that includes this island 😁
Really making their degrees work, with "if the eruption continues, the island will get bigger"
China is gonna be like “nah that’s our island bro”
the earth is so magnificent
If they reach the right size china could claim it 🤣
That island is 100% reliable
China will say it's theirs according to ancient manuscripts again. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
And to think that in a thousand years or so, that island may be budding with life and floral and most likely already existing birds.
one year oater
It’ll be underwater again
Amazing!
Sugoi I always ❤ these moments cause you never know until you get 🍀. ❤ 🇯🇵
Amazing stuff.
Have China claimed it yet? Edit: just read the comments and it seems my brilliantly original comment has already been made like 15 times lol I'm going back to bed.
How about the fact that this is Iwo Jima and is one of the most famous battles of all of World War II in the Pacific
It sure is wild to know that we are literally watching how land is made!
Watch out china mite try claim it😂
😂😂
sakop ng 11 dash line?
It has clear been part of China since ancient times!
* new island appears *
china: Where? that's ours 👀👀
China and Saudi Arabia: Behold! We have created islands!
Japan: You are like a child. Watch this…
it’s not an eruption. This is how Neptune gives more land to Japan.
Should name it something cool like "New Japan Land"
It already has the name it's called Iwo Jima. it's just going to merge with the main island it's literally 200 yards away from.
@@deannelson9565 How will it merge?
@@Greenpoloboy3 what do you mean how are they going to merge? It's a volcano that's what they do. It literally formed on the islands beach.
@@deannelson9565 Oh ok. I was thinking it might make new land but was still seperate from the mainland.
I hope it grows over the years and doesn’t weather away from a the waves
*new island appears*
China: hey that's mine!!! 🤩
Will the island last? Or errode away from the ocean waves?
China be like: Hey, hands off! That's mine 😠😠😠😠
Spectacular...🇿🇦🙌🏻🇯🇵
It’s a hotspot it forms a row after explosion just like what it does with Hawaii and it’s near the earths crust and where the magma rises up from there on
Actually this isn't a hotspot volcano. Iwo Jima as a volcano is more of a stratovolcano that is formed from plate subduction rather than a mantle plume. This volcano can produce some really large explosive eruptions that you don't see from volcanoes like the Hawaiian islands.
Most volcanoes are made from tectonic plates subducting which this volcano is most likely formed by
_The United Kingdom watching this new island:.._
*MINE, MINEEEEEEEEE*
Hello, it's difficult to get an idea of the depth behind a screen at this point, it doesn't seem "very" deep but is it the case, do you have this information please?
A new land is born 🥳🥳🥳🥳
Earth got a new update. New island just dropped.
After exploring the island closer, I'm sure the Japanese will be astonished to find the British flag already planted there.
In this day and age it’s more likely to be an American flag. Or Chinese or Russian
100 metres across wow they can house another 100,000 people easy ….
kinda gives you hope Loihi will pop up one day soon, then Hawai'i will have a new island in the chain !! it's all so exciting
I hereby declare sovereignty over this island.
ye right
You from the Chinese government?
I Lelouch VI Brittania will protect this island at all cost from the British empire.
Sorry, i have historical claims over these seas. My great great great grandfather drowned here.
Sincerely
A Chinese
island chan 😍
This is actually cool af, We don't get to see this often, and when it does happen, it's a real treat‼️
Well actually we witnessed new land being formed from the La Palma volcano last year when lava reached the sea. That was inasne to watch.
For that to be an island, it has to survive the relentless assault of the ocean waves and torrent of winds. So it needs continuous ejection of new materials until its base hardened enough.
Iwo Jema expanding and going through a resurgent dome faze as well
I fell into a burning ring of fire
I went down, down, down, and the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns
The ring of fire
The ring of fire
Amazing it sll hapoens do quickly
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LITTLE DUDE
Amazing
this reminds me of that chapter of Doraemon where Nobita and Doraemon intentionally created new island to avoid taxes and live freely in "their own" island using volcanic eruption
but ended up being claim by the government of course
Beautiful xx
What is the name of new japan island?
Where can I buy it?
That's Jogo right there
Is that Iwo Jima?
Next to Iwo Jima
I was looking forward for this Japan DLC to come out
When can i buy it?
Cool footage and refreshing no fluff or non sense clickbait thanks
I've read this exact story in Doraemon back in my childhood days 😂
Does that mean there's going to be another eruption at somepoint
No this was the very last eruption on planet earth...
Ok see you all in a couple thousand years when the island is ready to be built on!
China: Teraforms with sand to make artificial island.
Japan: *Hold my Saki*
somehow, someway, china will also make a dispute to claim that piece of land
I thought real estate was the one thing they weren’t making any more 🤷🏻♂️😂
Just think of all the rich nutrients entering the ocean water...... Fantastic
New map DLC goes crazy
Expand country: ❌
"Expand" country: ✅
new island just dropped !
Imagine the land that we don't know...
I have been worried for many years now about Japan. With all their earthquakes I fear that one day it might be lost to the ocean.
Actually the earthquakes are part of the reason why it won't be lost - The islands basically sit at the intersection of a handful of tectonic plates, and their movement/collisions with each other cause earthquakes, volcanism, and the accretion of the terrain, which is what lead to the formation of the islands originally
@@theofficiallobst6592 I hope you are right. Thanks for the information.
@@kittiescorner222 Yeah! Plate tectonics is actually a really interesting topic to look into if you’re ever interested :D
Will it be habitable? That'd be cool
Not in our lifetime
Japan getting bigger massive W
meanwhile China: hol'up! it's already drawn in our map. SO THAT ISLAND IS OURS!
So cool love nature
Is this another one? Because years ago this was going on AND NOT A WORD MENTIONED ....
Literally free real estate
Isn't this how most of the Godzilla movies in the 60's and 70's started? Just saying, wouldn't be the weirdest thing this year.
