First
Let's talk about what you have proven. No more hearsay. I'll show you amateur vids of what people have seen. And you send me amature vids if what you have proven.
Exactly Why I love science.
Whoa this is so wierd! I'm on a video of Neil degrasse Tyson and your comment is in the comment section about when Peter got a prostate exam from a video I watched right before this one!
It says "they are fucked as a couple"
I'm 99% convinced at this point that flat earthers are on a global trolling event.
Jacob Thomas It’s like a grass roots movement, but instead of grass they’re weeds.
I doubt that the FES isn't a troll group.
@@AdriantheSpotter wow acronym
they even had cool acronym now , what next holiday ? or lego set ?
There are flat earth members, all around the globe.
wrong name. if they say the word 'global' out loud, they explode
I don't care too much about the tides; I want someone to explain Neil deGrasse Tyson.
Well, he’s sort of like some mysterious black-hole - A tremendous amount of stuff goes in - but nothing of any use ever comes out.
😩🎯😭🤣
@@TerryOnDemand Sorry, I’m struggling to understand what that meant, but I’m glad it ended with a 🤣 I wouldn’t want to think I upset you 😭

What a fantastic man.
I can listen to NDT talk all by himself for hours, but I am super impressed by how much Chuck Nice adds, including breaking it down with catch phrases. Great chemistry.
Exactly. A stark contrast between Neil on Joe Rogan and Neil here and I love every second of it
omg this was a year ago im so late
You know it's physics not chemistry, right?
@@frowningJoker lol they mean the conversational chemistry between Neil and Chuck Nice.
@@frowningJoker Are you serious? Your reading comprehension skills are atrocious.
The animations help a tramendous amount on top of Neil's explanation. Thank you, I learned something new :)
Neil really has this amazing ability to make you understand whatever he tells you. On top of that the animations really do help. :)
Yeah it's a great addition
No disrespect to NDT but I prefer this video on the tides.
czcams.com/video/pwChk4S99i4/video.html
Unfortunately those animations didn't properly visualize what he was explaining. Water doesn't "rise" off the surface of the planet directly under the sun/moon. It flows towards the sun/moon from the surface that is tangential to the force of external gravity.
So if you imagine the Earth as a large circle and the moon as a smaller circle to the right of it, the water isn't "rising" from the side of the Earth closest to the moon. What is happening is that the water from the top and bottom of the Earth circle is flowing in the direction of the moon. And as the water flows that way, it bunches up with more water and more water and more water until the large bulge is formed.
thats not how you use youtube comments, jk glad to see idiocy isnt on all of youtube
Neil deGrasse Tyson is a one of a kind. He has a brilliant understanding of the world, coupled with an extraordinary ability to explain complex concepts to the layperson. On top of this, we live in an age where information and knowledge can be easily distributed and archived by the internet, allowing future generations to benefit.
But we can't use the internet for researching flat earth. bs
He is a great educator but a frustrating conversation partner.
Go ahead and bury your heads. Research Galileos thinking on this. Galileo went against the flat earth powers that be which was the all powerful catholic church at that time. So he really believed in what he was saying. Neil is just going along with the crowd. Obvious wrong information if you know the higher order of math and gravitational force.
What amazed me when I studied oceanography was the accuracy of tidal predictions, given the number of variables used in the calculation.
Couldn’t agree more with you Frank. I guess someone with your knowledgeable background must wince, when you see the those accurate oceanography calculations and hard work conducted by oceanographers around the world, reduced to bulging black-holes and pointless earth yoga. Thanks for brightening my day with your plain taking comment.
I wish everyone had a teacher as good as Neil deGrasse Tyson!

Just a theory. Back before we had artificial lighting illuminating our towns, full moons allowed enough illumination for people to go out at night. Meaning more mischievous or unsettling things went on, on nights with a full moon, thus causing the correlation between lunatics and full moons.
Ooo... That actually kinda make sense
that makes a lot of sense. because especially back then when people didn't have any efficient means to record incidental evidence, all they do is claim based on what is recorded in their memories. and that defeats the purpose more as memories come with emotional imprints. we only remember or "SEE" what we want to, especially when we are emotionally stressed (any kind of emotion). they get to be up longer in the darker hours of the night and perceive events with psychologically or mentally stained perspective. thus, creating all these stories of dramatic lunacy!! lol; You Sir, should be knighted as Sir Sensalot! xD its a sound and logic inference that we have here because of your intellectual spur. very much making a lot of sense. nice bro
@n29nick Makes sense bt its not a theory its a hypothesis laid out by you or someone else
Get it peer reviewed and we’ll work on it later

We're on a physics channel, not anthrogenic! :p
Is there a measurable difference in the height of the tide when all the planets are lined up on the other side of the sun from the Earth?
What a fascinating question. That is going to keep my brain whirring for ages, but are all the other planets ever lined up on the other side of the Sun from Earth? I doubt they orbit like that. They do occasionally all line up on the same side. Anyhow, we could possibly calculate the increased gravitational attraction of your scenario, and I suspect it might make a very slight difference to tide height. However, I don’t think it would be measurable over the normal height difference, because those planets would be an incredibly long way away. What do you think?
In addition to the question above how long until the next line up if there ever is a line up?@@wavydaveyparker
@@SurlyCurmudgen On May 19, 2161, all Solar System planets, including the Earth, will gather on one side of the Sun. The planetary alignment will be seen just before dawn. Although, that wasn’t my calculations and I just did a quick internet search 😅 We both probably won’t be around to witness it though. Anyhow, back to your questions…maybe you’d do me the honour of commenting on my cartoon and we can discuss this gravitational pull thing further? Thanks for replying. Kind regards.
I wish i had a teacher like Neil De Grasse Tyson when i was at school! He explains everything in such a way that it is so easy for someone to understand it. He is amazing!!!!
suppose I was luckier than you in school. My teachers would never stray away from the subject as Tyson does. They would explain tides thoroughly not leaving out the most interesting bits - like the bulge of water on the side of earth facing away from the moon. This is not an explanation. This is an introduction.
If it weren't for the diagram, I would have no clue what he's talking about
this is more real than the bulge itself
Which is why so many Flat Earthers refuse to understand. They would just say "look, CGI again...so fake."
These kind of videos are bomb diggity for getting people to open up. Neil was humble as fuck he must be listening to the conspiracy theories as well haha. That's right Neil tell them you have an answer and not necessarily thee answer. That's the most honest thing they've let him say on video lol....
If it wasn’t for this comment I wouldn’t of realized that’s why I understood that entire video

You should try your toilet 🙄
@@druvakumar5383 or rather flush down the toilet 😂
5.5 mins in, and this is already the most educational video I've ever seen on CZcams.
Yet Neil is wrong with his stretching.
The correct explanation is on:

You need to watch more CZcams, lol.
I love that Neil doesn’t judge as Chuck learns, and is just passionate about explaining things. You can see that Neil is just happy to be sharing the knowledge. I love him.
And I wholeheartedly agree, it’s never wise to be judgmental, but doesn’t that depend on what new knowledge Chuck has acquired from his enthralling conversation with Neil. Can I politely enquire how you now understand the tides?
Tides are illusion of earth crust thermal expansion causing coastal seabed moving in stable water.
Physicists are pig-headed
Tides are an artifact of coastlines moving in stable seawater, caused by thermal expansion of the crust caused by moving sunlight.
Lunar gravity has nothing to do with anything on Earth. Scientists are dumber than pigs for believing that tides, which move at different speeds and in different directions one to four times a day in different locations and at heights ranging from 3 feet to 50 feet, are caused by the moon's gravity.
tides explained by space time...go
Tyson's genuine laugh gets me everytime, this man is a well of knowledge and he has so much fun being so.
What I love about this, is that Chuck can truly understand Neil, and can provide accurate descriptions to qualify Neil's explanations. What a great pair! ★ *Syzygy* ★
Synergy.
Syzygy is 3 or more bodies. Didn't you listen to the video?
@@ohtheblah we are the 3rd
OA
And I think that's why Niel always fits best with Chuck as his comedic host. Because he's not just funny but he's scientific understanding funny.
“Tide goes in, tide goes out. Never a miscommunication. You can’t explain that. You can’t explain why the tide goes in.” - Bill O’Reilly

@@tomitstube
*there was a object (planet or asteroid) hit the earth a million years ago, then a part of earth and that object was thrown away into the space causing moon. for more information Google it*
no, Mr O'Reilly. YOU can't explain that :- )
but he just did?
@K.D.P. Ross Another puzzle solved. How to put the words "true" and "Bill O'Reilly" in the same sentence ? Well done, u get an A :D
Love you guys man, you make learning so cool and fun. It would be great to have teachers like that.
Yes mr Tyson, you make a very good point, and as I keep saying, the tides are a natural consequence of inertial motion in a non-uniform gravitational field.
They are not solely due to the gravitational differential. In your scenario, with a constant gravitational field, without a gradient, then not only would the earth’s center of mass be “in orbit”, free of any force, moving on a geodesic path around the barycentre of the earth-moon system, but so would all the others parts as well.
Therefore, the Earth would not experience any tidal force across its diameter. This is true for all celestial bodies. Inertia has an important part to play in the formation of tides, and it’s not solely due to the inverse square law of gravitational geometry…but, you try telling that to the masses! 👇Take care.
It’s Dr. Tyson not Mr.
@@jimmason8502 Yep! And it’s an outward acting tide force not earth yoga, dr Mason.
@atavistic_platypus Thanks, but I guess you gotta go with the flow, bro
tides explained by space time...go
fact killed science
Tides in the Bay of Fundy proves all scientists are delusional fact deniers.
If tides are caused by moon’s gravity, how can high tide in the eastern Bay of Fundy 50 feet, but only 20 feet in the western Bay of Fundy?
In fact, tides are an artifact of the up and down movement of coastlines in a stable ocean, caused by thermal expansion of the earth's crust due to moving sunlight.
Tide goes in, tide goes out, you can't expla..... oh.
damn you beat me to it
I clicked on that video expecting that comment!
Martin Caron you and me both
Therefore, flat earth Jesus.
How is the moon's gravity stronger than the Earth's?
I love that Chuck is what us viewers are thinking and acting like, so it feels like we're actually there when he reacts the way we would've or wish to react then.
Chuck plays his role well, and I think after all this time working with Neil, he knows more than he lets on.
@Science Revolution What xd
I disagree so badly...

While I understand how the bulge can be caused by water on the side of the Earth facing the moon, I've never understood why it also creates a bulge on the other side of the Earth as well. Unfortunately, other than saying that the moon's gravity stretches the water along that axis, this video did not explain it.
Hello Marcus, I really do feel your frustration, that far-side bump is a real bone of contention amongst scientists. And unfortunately, it isn’t helped by _you-tube,_ who willingly promote the wrong videos, which continue the spread of scientific misinformation and completely poison the waters of curiosity.
All I can say to you is this…there are approximately two tides a day on planet earth! - some will say, its the water stretching…others will say, it’s the water being squeezed from the poles, in the form of an anti-gravity effect…and real physicists will tell you, it’s due to the centrifugal effect of the earth in motion around the barycentre.
They are all in essence the correct answer, but require further clarification, regarding the finer details of hydrostatic pressure.
The one thing we can both categorically say without any doubt whatsoever!! Is that…
*“the daily tides are not caused by the earth moving in a straight-line, directly towards the moon, filling up bulges and leaving water behind and then somehow magically stopping”* - because, that is completely ridiculous and contravenes the First Law of Motion.
I really hope that eases the frustration, but acknowledgment for my effort in typing would be greatly appreciated. Take care.
@@perseverancerover
Thanks for the explanation about the barycentre. That intuitively makes sense to me, though I wouldn't be capable of working through the maths. I'll check out a few more videos on the topic.
Just find it frustrating that Neil deGrasse Tyson skipped over what are arguably the most important aspects like that, and expected us to simply accept "stretchy water".
That said, it's fascinating to consider how the effect of the moon, the sun and Earth's own gravity and rotation all factor into what we experience at the beach each day.
@@MrMarcusIndia Thanks for replying, it’s not often I receive such thoughtful replies. You’re right! Neil deGrasse Tyson is a very frustrating scientist and has unfortunately become more concerned about his own popularity, instead of pursuing the aim to ‘popularise’ science - it happens a lot these days?
Water is incapable of “stretching”? He really should leave ocean matters to the oceanographers, they’re the real experts when it comes to tidal complexity.
I wouldn’t be too harsh on yourself though, I’m certain with the right guidance, you’d be more than capable of handling the maths behind the simple occurrence of two daily tides. It’s only when we factor in all the other peculiarities, like topography, that it gets really intricate and I don’t profess to know much about that!
However, let me leave you with this little thought, as I just thought of it myself - _let me know what you think?_ - If we were able to cocoon ourselves in a protective shell, at the very centre of the earth! Then, we wouldn’t experience any ‘tidal force’ and wouldn’t even be able to demonstrate the existence of ‘gravity’ - because, we would be in free-fall around the barycentre and undergoing the effects of weightlessness!
Now, that’s what astrophysicist Tyson should really be mumbling about in this video, instead of going off-script and talking about yoga, black-holes and spaghettification. Good luck and best wishes.
Because every spheroid object (for example - A rubber band) when stretched from one end it always becomes an ellipse. So it will alawys have a bulge on both sides compared to the previous shape even if you stretched it from one end.
@@adarsh4764 This is just a very polite suggestion. Only if you had something to hold the other end in place, and unfortunately there isn’t anything in the universe that can do that? Not even tyson. So, please put your spherical rubber bands down and start thinking critically about the problem. Cheers
What did the moon say to the earth? "Is that tidal force or are you just happy to see me?"
Earth throws drink in Moons face and attempts to walk away... But cant, Gravity.
here comes Earth chan and Moon sama fanfics 😴
Their names are Tera and Luna thank you very much
The earth said to the moon its high tide you got out of here.
Nasty 😏
I've never heard the word 'bulge' spoken this much in a safe-for-work video.
I thought the exact same thing lol
A Negative mind though 😏
Bulgey wolgey :)
I dont understand?😕
@Science Revolution You are grossly overestimating the force of the gravitational attraction of the moon!
These talks, interlaced with the humor, are really great
Minor correction: Neap tides do not produce the lowest tides. They produce the least extreme tides. The lowest tides, like the highest tides, appear during syzygy.
Actually Sinatra, to be frank, you’re absolutely right, and to be entirely frank, it’s really a “major” correction, not a minor one that’s needed here, because it’s totally out of tune and completely flat. However, mr tyson has no regrets, he doesn’t care, and failed to mention the importance of inertia in his tidal explanation, deciding to leave his audience with the incorrect impression, that the sun pulls one side, and the moon pulls the other. Therefore, we have two high tides a day, and the Earth performing some peculiar stretching and yoga classes.
_”There is no big explosion, no tempest in the tea. The world does not stop turning around, there’s no big syzygy.”_
Take care and goodbye my friend. 😂
that is not a minor correction
I think it's pretty easy to get sloppy with the wording when you're speaking off-the-cuff, but I think most people got what he meant. Still, you are technically correct, which, as I learned from Futurama, is the best kind of correct.
@@alexcwagner I agree. It jumped out at me because among boaters “lowest tide” has a very relevant, critical meaning!

It's always refreshing to hear from such a great mind as Neil deGrasse Tyson. For those who appreciate great science, this has always been an important thing to know for those of us who live near several bodies of water or any large body of water for that matter. Great stuff!
His isn't a 'great mind'. He's nothing more than a glorified regurgitator.

Neil: “the moon has been slowing us down ever since [its existence]”
Guy: “Or the earth’s just getting really tired”
Lmao I kinda like this guy
That was a jab at Aristotles theory of why objects slow down, which isn’t inaccurate it’s just poorly worded
Dummy !
He's a comedian.
His name is Chuck Nice, it comes up at the start of the video lol
Neil: "if the moon effects the werter and the werters made of werter and were mostly werter doesnt the moon effect us"
If they would have shown these videos in high school, I might have payed more attention. I've learned more from this channel in 2 months, than I did in school, for 13 years.

This is the most intuitive explanation of tides I have ever heard.
Chuck is just too Nice
Honestly, Chuck Nice is so funny, and Neil is SO smart and SUCH an amazing public speaker. NDT is poetic in everything he does.
I’m an Astrophysics student, and everyday, in everything I do, I think about Neil and how he would approach things. I feel so honoured to be able to follow your journey guys.

I find myself back at this channel constantly. These guys have such a great format and chemistry going.. it makes for the perfect learning environment. “Earth Yoga” 😂
If gravity is the curvature of space-time, then is it the change in this curvature that accounts for the two high tides on opposite sides of the earth? Teachers keep saying the "Pulling Down" of gravity on the earth is weaker on both sides where there is a high tide, but in other videos some say gravity is space-time and is not a force that pulls?
czcams.com/video/XRr1kaXKBsU/video.html
My brain simplified the forces of the moon and the sun on the earth as two children fighting over a water balloon with a rock inside.
You broke me.
@Science Revolution the earths Gravity on the water is way greater, the moon and sun can only bend OR stretch it
Always excited to hear Neil deGrasse Tyson explain things, he always does it so well.
This talk really indicates the difference between correlation and causality.
Jesus Christ! I couldn't visualize this in high school and college UNTIL NOW!
So is it like the sun and moon playing tug of war? Lol
John Kimbrough tug of *water
... and the moon is so strong to compete tug of war with the sun???
@@diannagracelaurian4052 when it is much closer, yes. The gravitational pull is amplified by distance

Thank you so much! I learnt exactly what tides are. Thanks Dr. Neil and my favorite Chuck, your in between comedy is amazing. Great combination. Once again thanks Sir Neil for everything you do for this community
And it wasn't until this video I realized how important it is to have more role models like Neil.
The moon has been slowing down Earth's rotation over time, but has also been progressively moving away from Earth, and therefore exerting less force to slow us down... so my question is how do you get a girlfriend?
I'm just going to watch this about 8 more times to digest it. Yep.
You don't. You live a lonely life, well at least i do.
You go Glenn Coco
Say to a girl: Hey would you like to go and watch the angular momentum of the earth causing the sun to disappear behind the horizon?
Moon her.
Love these shows! Keep them coming guys, great work!
Enjoyed this, I like listening to Neil. I learn something new every time.
Cool. Did I get this right? And how would you write this in astronomical terms?
Tidal Bulge is due to moon and sun influence. (Equation at different seasons?)
Tidal bulge slows down the rotation of the earth. (Evidence through sea Mollusks, cycling) Earth is slowing and has been slowing down over time as evident from the cycling in sea mollusks.
So…what is slowing us down?
How does this influence earths axis?
Can a slower speed change degree at axis?
If so what happens?
Will the moon influence us differently if our axis is different?
30, 45 or even 60 degrees!?
Could it happen in a short time period - like the big whack? 😎 Will that influence speed of rotation considering tidal waves 🌊 are influenced?
Why does speed of rotation matter the most? Can humans cause damage enough to harm our tilt or speed of rotation? What about space trash? Does it affect the gravitational pull?
😅 thanks - to anyone. New to this and have soo many questions!!
That is a very interesting and questionable comment Brandi? :) And, you sort of answered your first question yourself really! Its the bulge that slows down the rotation - it requires a lot of energy to move all that water about and that energy must come from somewhere? And, it comes from the rotational energy of the spinning and motion of the Earth and Moon around their common centre of mass! That’s why it… ? …Maybe you’d like to laugh at my video first, before we continue with the answers there? Take care.
@@cybermonkeys I watched another 5 hours of content, read multiple papers on the Big Bang and how the study the cosmic background radiation is answering some of these questions AND even read up on new technology developed for the scopes in the last 2 weeks! I think I answered most of my hypothetical questions that way. I also attended a couple lectures. Still stuck on dark matter. I just can’t wrap my head around it.
One thing I won’t ever do again is try to figure out how specific formulas were formed - 😅 oh man! That is nuts! I have to admit I think I’m in love with these topics. I even cried when I saw the data based image of the black hole! That’s weird right? It was just beautiful.
@@Brandi.Nicole Oh my word! I’m so thoroughly impressed with your passion for the topics! Anyone, whose reduced to tears, after viewing the ‘stunning’ and ‘beautiful’ black-hole radio-image taken by ‘Event Horizon’ is definitely someone worth talking too!! 😎 Can I politely ask you to look up a video called, ‘the unexplained ocean tides’ because they like talking about this stuff there! I think it was swallowed by a black-hole recently and no one is watching? In the meantime here’s something czcams.com/video/cRmbwczTC6E/video.html that says everything about the beauty of the world around us! And, I’d also like to say that you have an uncanny ability of being very accurate with your comments, _‘Still stuck on dark matter. I just can’t wrap my head around it’_ was actually very insightful and close to the truth? Kind regards.
@@Brandi.Nicole That is an absolutely fantastic reply again Brandi and may I say that you don’t sound silly in the slightest! 😇 No one said science was easy and explaining it in text is even harder - i guess 😁
Anyway, before I attempt to answer some of your brilliant questions, can I ask which topic we’re still talking about here please? - tides or dark matter? because the two aren’t really the same! 😅 However, in the meantime let me leave you with this!
The scientist who discovered the discrepancy between orbital speed and gravity was Vera Rubin 🤘- At a young age, Vera Rubin was fascinated by the stars, watching the night sky revolve from her north-facing bedroom in Washington. And in the process, became the mother of dark matter! 😂 take care. Did you watch the video? 😅
@@cybermonkeys yes
These videos make my day when I see them pop up in my subscriptions list.
yeah very true
Amante Reale Me too.
Amante Reale I concur!
Geeks
11:00: Best finger demonstration i've ever seen of "two snapping into new two's"!
Good stuff man
This episode was so much more interesting than I anticipated
Imma be honest the best part of this. is how much fun they're having explaining these concepts. like its science but its fun and I think thats great.
I recently took up sailing as a hobby, so I needed a good understanding of tidal change and causes. This is by far the best explanation of tides I ever saw, heard or read. Thanks for the education guys.
watching Neil get excited about science gives me life.
Wow these guys are amazing I learn so much from them thank you ❤
I love how he little taps him to explain something
When they’re both on the edge of their seats talking about tidal forces.
Dillon Qaphsiel edge of their seats and so wrong. Lol, “educated fools” (Bob Marley)
@@badman3799 wtf why do you think they are wrong?
Over Thedge Its not that i ‘think’ they’re wrong.
Its not an opinion.
Ive done my own research and experiments.
The moon will be overhead and the tide will be at its lowest...
No gravitational influence there!
Observeable all over the earth to those that do more than believe what they hear.
Youll see, next time this occurs where you are.
Question: Do you ‘think’ they’re right??
Must be all that bulge talk
My brain simplified the forces of the moon and the sun on the earth as two children fighting over a water balloon with a rock inside.
You broke me.
omg...I love this man. He is intelligent beyond my comprehension and yet he can explain his view of the universe in a way that I can understand.
If gravity is the curvature of space-time, then is it the change in this curvature that accounts for the two high tides on opposite sides of the earth? Teachers keep saying the "Pulling Down" of gravity on the earth is weaker on both sides where there is a high tide, but in other videos some say gravity is space-time and is not a force that pulls?

Even though Neil did not mention the influences of the distances from the moon and from the sun, I'm still subscribing. It would be nice to have an animation showing all the revolutions and how they interfere

This just changed my entire perspective on the show Avatar the last airbender
Lol
Internet and Neil are here for that. Information at a click.
Can we all take a second and appreciate/contemplate how amazing gravity is 🤯 Just the idea that mass alone can exert such a force. It's straight up magical and we all just take it for granted.
Not magical cause it happens like all the time and always has
We take magnets for granted as well. They have invisible forces that we see the effect of. It's magical as well, but we get used to it and it's not thought of much.
JasonWW2000 not magical
@@I.OWN.NOTHING Why do you say that? Have you never seen the expression of a child who sees magnets do sonething bizarre for the first time? It's magical. :-)
Hello - thx for the video Mr Tyson. I happened to see another one a while ago and it kind of explains it a bit differently, saying that the ocean is not being lifted or stretched, but rather squeezed towards the earth-moon line and piling up there thanks to the cumulative sideways traction everywhere else (sort of like a planet-size hydraulic pump). Any thoughts on whether that makes sense to you as well? Thanks!
Absolutely Awesome Video Guys
So a multi-moon planet with an ocean must have some interesting tides
Or possibly... less interesting tides, as they could cancel eachother out the way the sun does with our own. Depends on if they are equally spaced and synchronised, or randomly spinning around, lining up sometimes and not others.
Earth is flat lad
Sean Joyce lmfao you made crack. Thanks 😂
Great stuff. As a sailing instructor I also add two other factors that affect tides. One is whether or not the moon in apogee or perigee. The other is whether the moon is in the southern or northern hemisphere.
One other question: why are tidal ranges n=more pronounced in northern latitudes?
Latitude has absolutely nothing to do with tidal range. If you've sailed in the Caribbean or similar places you're surely aware that the tidal ranges are mostly modest, but that's because the landforms tend to be simple and there are few long, large, narrow bays and the islands mostly do rotate into a simple bulge. If you're like most people you're thinking of the huge tidal range in the Bay of Fundy, but the highest tides are at the most inland point, which is east and south of places with lower tides. If you head north (and east) to St John's Newfounland the maximum tidal range is about 4.5'.
@@suedenim9208 In the higher latitudes of the northern hemisphere, the continents of North America, Europe, and Asia are pressed closer together. This “constriction” of the oceans creates the effect of a higher range of tides.
@@jacdale Sort of. It's landforms that result in higher tidal ranges, not northern latitudes.
@@suedenim9208 Agreed. That answers my question.
Oh my... how I didn't find this channel before, I love this two guys. Just subscribed to get more videos of them. I love universe but no one explains better than Mr deGrasse. Even english is not my first lenguage I understand almost everything.

@@davidmudry5622 earth is flat u ignore ur common sense to believe ur on a spinning ball
@@jewscontrolyou9730 The sun, moon, and planets are all balls. The moons of Jupiter go around Jupiter. Venus is between the earth and the sun, earth is between the sun and Mars Jupiter Saturn.
I swear these two can talk about paint drying and it would be awesome to listen to. I love the way they interact and explain things.
Sitting in quarantine/isolation during tough emotional times, this made me very happy, on top of answering the question I had that were never really, fully answered even though I studied neuroscience in the end. Haha
As a ship captain this was new to me, and enlightening. Neil rocks..
Excellent talk funny at times science and informative loved it
Thanks
PS great sense of humor
Neil is a gift to mankind. Can't imagine a gift like that;;; I mean the awesome desire to inspire and teach us. Thank you Sir..
He is great comic relief. Such a masterful liar
