- Iceland, a land of perpetual mystique, captivates the curious with its beauty and untamed landscapes. Nestled in the North Atlantic, this island nation stands as a testament to the raw forces that shape our planet. Its stark, otherworldly scenery exudes an eerie charm, inviting exploration into the heart of the unknown. Volcanic cauldrons breathe life into geothermal wonders like Hverir, where bubbling mud pools and hissing fumaroles paint an ethereal picture. Icelandic folklore weaves tales of hidden creatures, adding an air of magic to the misty fjords and moss covered lava fields. The dancing Northern Lights illuminate the night sky with an enchanting dance that sparks the imagination.
Clickbait headline, and I fell for it.
Good grief! Iceland is interesting enough without all the ridiculous hype!
@4:07 Fagradalsfjall eruption in 2021 did not occur without warning. There were, in fact, earthquake swarms in the area for many weeks prior. Scientists and the public were well aware and watching and waiting for a possible eruption. The activity on the Reykjanes peninsula has reemerged in recent weeks. Much excellent coverage on CZcams from many Icelandic channels for anyone truly interested.
Do you have a suggestion for any particular channels, im honestly not familiar lol
I second the request from @desert_holly
Lol yep, I was just gonna say, This guy didn't do any homework. Makes you wont what else he doesn't know about. I do know the caves he talks about are all old lava tubes. I suspect some of the others is all embellished but us volcano watchers know a lot about Icleands volcanos and eruptions.
Yes, Just Icelandic is a great channels. he does stories on all the towns and landscapes and all the latest on the volcanoes. Really nice guy and does the most beautiful photography.@@desert_holly
@@desert_holly This is a good channel with lots of reliable info about Icelands volcanoes. As a bonus he is also quite funny. www.youtube.com/@JustIcelandic
Two places where it's clear this is a robot reading: "manmade" and " crystal clear" so far. Can't you give a reader a job?
Always a red flag when I'm shown footage or images unrelated to the subject matter, like being shown a jet engine when being talked to about turbine electric power generators.
ANd the non-Icelandic farmer with foeign sheel, lol. As an Icelander I also do wonder about the myths here.....they are notknown to me.
Like shots of Yellowstone?
The AI talking is unbearable to listen to
boycott all A.I. 🍻
What makes you think this is AI?
I'm off after two minutes!
@@marymeyer8185 It is apparent at time stamp 9:12 where it says "man...made caves".
But he's a real man with a real generated voice, don't you recognize his voice ? I'm serious.
Iceland lies on the mid-Atlantic ridge, as do the Azores and other island groups. It is built entirely of lava rising from the spreading zone. Before the recent spate of eruptions in the west of the island the area had been quiet for 800 years. I have no idea where all this stuff about a missing continent comes from.
It's at the beginning of the vid. It's mostly submerged, with Iceland the only part tall enough to stick out of the ocean. In Ice Ages past, and sea levels low, it would theoretically have been dry land.
Thank you, you just saved me 25 minutes.
@45 seconds: It formed in the last week of January 1700 during a cataclysm - you can find it clearly documented in historic records - do some research instead of claiming "no one knows".
I had numerous deployments to Iceland and was stationed there for a year. It is a fantastic place, especially if you’re a fisherman. The people are very friendly and their sweaters are to kill for.
Skoafos (about 200 feet tall) and Thingvalier (sorry for the poor spelling) are more than worth the time and effort to visit.
My mother was a whore for the veterans to take advantage of
So you was an enforced migrant with a gun. Nice.
fagradalsfjall erupted after more than 3000 earthquakes,so whithout warnig might be slightly off.
the north atlantic is the best mapped ocean on our planet,there is no new continent there.
3000?
nope.
it was over 40000(!). :-D
a friend of mine lives in Reykjavik. She was pregnant at the time and she had a (more or less) constant feeling of sea sickness due to the shaking.
but yea. You are absolutely correct. It was over a month of warning lights. They new it was coming, just not exactly where.
and you are also correct about the continent.
Iceland is at a widening plate boundary combined with being on top of a mantle plume/hot spot. not a continent.... yet?
@@oskarkeyser i was talking about the last few hours before the eruption,the initial earthquakes started many months before the eruption so even 40000 earthquakes might be at the low end of the estimates😀
Ugh! Our cheeky, dry humored narrator is a computer voice!
A farmer tending to his sheep isn't called a farmer they're called a shepherd, the clue is in the name. Also BTW what were we being told that it isn't, I take it you couldn't be bother to tell us either.
"Smaller than adult giraffe" ... but larger than a baby rhino. 😂😂😂
There are a number of errors and wrong information in this video, seemingly all made for dramatic effect, ignoring actual facts.
Fortunately, these errors are mostly cosmetic and are not really relevant.
Errors? Nonsense!
@ 13:49 When talking about Steam turbines don't show a Gas turbine with a combustor.
Less than 1 in 3000 viewers commented anything at all and yours is only the 2nd to rightly criticize the gas turbine image so I believe most of the population has been dumbed down purposefully so they don't harm themselves trying to understand what they are watching. Come the SHTF they will all be victims of predators and marauders. Some of them may be nice people but what is their point. They might just as well sit in a comfy chair like a marshmallow and hum to themselves.
I'm sure it's tremendously self-gratifying to think of oneself as promulgating a "new" theory; but suggesting that Iceland is its own continent completely ignores the observable fact that it exists on top of two separate tectonic plates that are moving apart at about the same speed as your fingernails are growing.
Well I hate to tell people that sure doesn't look like it's weeping
Flowery, empty poetry...
They told us that Iceland is an island with geysers and volcanoes and they were entirely correct.
I love the commentary; a little whimsy, a little facts, a little myth. And the pics! Awesome
The landscape is awesome..would love to visit Iceland in the near future. Tqsm 4 sharing the beauty of Iceland..may God bless you..😊
I've been to Iceland twice. It is well worth the visit!
How long did it take you to visit all these special sites ? I think I would completely forget space and time in one of those ice caves .
The first time I went to ICELAND, we were there for 3 days. That wasn't enough, so the next time, we spent 10 days. That was better!
The energy there is amazing. It feeds your soul.
This was interesting despite the misleading title. I enjoyed it
They are all "the best!" Thank you for the beautiful video. My next trip is to Iceland.
I don't just want to visit . I want to move there .
Do not do a tour. Rent a car and tour the Golden Circle yourself! Well worth it. Visit all Waterfalls and Black Diamond Beach
13:50 Looks exactly like an aircraft jet propulsion engine, that's pretty cool.
I greatly enjoyed my tour of iceland. Thank you for sharing with all of us.Who can't afford to travel😊
About the caves, they are natural named Lave tubes. But people bested them for their usage.
Where continental tectonic plates push apart, it is because huge volumes of magma rise from deep in the earth and push the giant "rafts" of tectonic plates apart. This usually happens deep in the middle of the ocean, like the Mid-Atlantic ridge. But Iceland is the only place on earth where this geologic process rises high enough to be seen above sea level. Iceland is constantly splitting apart in the middle, with the North American plate going west and the European plate going east. Leakage of magma provides volcanic lava displays anywhere up on the surface the leakage busts out to be visible. Due to all the accompanying earthquakes, this is not a good place to be standing at the edge of any cliff.
I think I'll stick with the scientists for now. I-ll leave the spook stories to the "History" Channel.
It's all amazing that I would love to visit Iceland. I love caves and that ice cave is very inviting. But the blue lagoon and the thermal fields are also magic.
I clicked primarily to comment the title is unadorned clickbait. “Not what we are told”, by whom? Could the title itself have been AI generated, having been taught by the amount of clickbait on the internet? If so, we are developing artificially idiocy. We have so much of the real thing.
Thank you for the excellent photography showing all angles to give clear perspectives, never done in my experience. Usually one is left confused about size, but not with these photos.
Surely, you don't believe the guy posting this actually took those photos, do you? All he did was use someone else's photos and videos, used a narration made by a computer and collected the cheque from CZcams. Oh I forgot, he made up a title which means absolutely nothing but it's designed to con people into thinking it's something special. Exactly what is it we're not being told? Absolutely nothing. Like almost every country in the world it has some great scenery, adding BS about fairies,elves and ghosts is simply to make you think it's special.
Every country also has a small percentage of people who believe in Myths and old wives tales. Very few icelanders actually believe it. In fact you'll find a lot of it is overplayed to keep the tourists happy. The whole thing is nothing more than a money making exercise. I assume you're American, they tend to believe everything on CZcams is real. I've been around the world a few times, but never got to see Iceland, but I assure you it's everything we're told it is.
Theres gullible ppl the world over its just when theyre American the drooling starts over how to get their ducats - well, someones footing all these cons. The person who thinks this was on par with a Nat'l Geo doc probably is busy getting that Nigerian prince his cashiers check so the Swiss bank willrelease his kingdoms gold bullion
Sure, just steal copyrighted images and make a youtube video without permission. Nothing wrong about that?!
The illustration you showed of a turbine is a gas turbine not one that uses steam.
We human's pretty much all know and the vast majority accept the fact that at one time almost unfathomably long ago; There was but "ONE" continent. Most often referred to as "Pangia". And that prior to it's existence there wasn't a continent. Pangia was formed by the various eruption's deeply below when they erupted and eventually reaching the surface, condensed aka cooled and form what we now refer to as "LAND".
There is a reason we refer to the Yonger Dryas as the end of the "LAST ICE AGE". There were ice age's prior to the last. We also know to various percentage of degree's, just where the Magnetic North Pole's were prior to where it is today. However, I've never been able using any and all of the data I using the internet today. Can figure out exactly. Just where Pangia prior to it breaking up and causeing the continent's we have today was. With all the volcanic activity that ICE LAND has and continues to have going on beneath it. It's a safe assumption that the area known today as ICE LAND was originally Pangia.
Between any and all of the various Magnetic Pole changes, the 26,000 year cycles envolveing the precession of the planet. A particular location on the planet today, which is directly under the noon day sun, wasn't or hasn't alway's been in the same exact what we today would refer to as geographical location.
Proof: The Sahara is now and has been for numerious millenium's a desert; But it hasn't alway's been. If a plush subtropical location can become a desert without any aid from human's and our supposedly causeing "Green House Effect's". How exactly does a subtropical location become a desert to the degree it is today? Human's causing climate change is total bullshit; When one realize's, the climate today in any location isn't the same as it was some 12,500 or nearly half of the precssion cycle, not to mention the Magnetic Pole changes.
But then were only human, the one and only biological life form that can, will and does consider ourselves, though it's never been debate able. The more intelligent biological life form on this planet only we refer to as our's. We are so pompose that since almost day one of our existence we've been not only obsessed with but mandate that "WE" unlike any other biological life form; Have a purpose! Going out on a limb and agreeing, assuming there is a purpose. I'd spell it "G R E E D". Greed is the one thing which isn't debateable with any other biological life form, when no other biological life form practice's it. It is the one thing that has cause us to evolve from what we once were, to what we are today, and will be tommorow.
Lovely pictures but that is about it!
Beautiful! I want to visit
Thus is definitely a channel built by AI 🙄
Kebler elves? Cookies! OMG! It's the same old thing. Outta here!
Iceland as a continent is very interesting and gives rise to the idea that during the last glacial maximum, it may have been so large that humans could have walked across to Greenland and the Americas…
I’m questioning the rare red volcanic lava. Looks more like a red brick building.
Spent 2 weeks in Iceland for the 2022 August/Sept. eruption. After three days we went up the the Westfjords country and wow! This video is full of a lot of nonsense and exaggerations. Never a mention of the waterfalls of the Westfjords at all although it is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful parts of Iceland. After we left Westfjords we went to the Snæfellsjökull Volcano on the Snaefellsnes Peninsula. BTW if you're going to Iceland on a budget the lodging up there is inexpensive compared to places in the more touristy south.
You show an illustration of a gas turbine when you are describing a steam turbine.
Why at 13:52 do you show an illustration of a gas turbine engine ... NOT A STEAM TURBINE??? It's this sort of 'technical sloppiness' that renders a presentation (such as this) as worthless '
click bait' ... too bad.
Interesting video but who wrote that cheesy script? And the AI narration is pretty bad.
Enjoyed this video.
A completely random bunch of subjects haphazardly thrown together, with a commentary so annoying that I ended up watching the video with the sound turned off, because the landscapes are beautiful. Anybody who wants to KNOW things should look elsewhere.
WOW!! Outstanding!
Yeah so how is Iceland not what we're being told? I second that question! Another video that has absolutely nothing to do with the title.
Thank you very much
The word continent is quite well defined, and Iceland is not a continent. Clickbait narrated by AI.
So,, Iceland is EXACTLY as we were told. This Damn clickbait simply proves it.
This was wonderful. I love the way you tell things. Thanks for this . Now I have to look for videos of you😊
10:16 Viking ingenuity... Okaaayyyy. WhatchaOUT!
Ok watched the whole video, what was different than what we have been told?
658 bottom right giants head on ground level as well as structures carved on upper left . 1858 is a Giant curled on it's side head shoulders arms back torso clearly visible
Get a grip on reality, you lost it.
@@FlattardsArePathetic Me thinks U need to get a grip and read your Bible the World is nothing but Dead Body Parts. Now go look at the sections I mentioned instead of trying to disprove me without doing the research.. Teacher would have given you a Minus F for No effort.
Iceland reminds me of a super volcano.😳
One could do without the legends.
and the crap narration full of shit
Visited many of these areas. East Iceland is the only area I have not visited
Totally amazing
It looks like an entirely different planet.
Very nice
9:33 Very weird warping. Just like Google Street View when you move between different views...
I had forgotten about the submerged continent of IceLandia
Was it originally part of Antarctics before that place was consumed by ice thus sundered it gradually moved clear of that area?
Grand report
For someone like us…
Who would never go there,
It’s too far away, too far north,,
And so on….
Number 1 was a let down
The only thing I had not heard about Iceland until now is that it is part of a continent (Islandia?) instead of being created by underwater volcanoes….I’ll have to look into that.
No continental material. All of the island came from a combination of a magma plume and the Mid-Atlantic spreading ridge marking the junction of the North American plate and the European-Asian plate.
24:48 Fahrenheit and Celsius confusion (-: Should be 198°F or 92²C That aside, WOW we toured Iceland for a few days in 2022 and didn't see much of what Wise Owl covered.
..alot of Not exactly info, but nice storytelling lol
I want the 4runner looking SUV at the 8:17 mark
13:52 A jet engine? What on Earth is that doing in a geothermal plant?
Tears of a giant. This entire world is biology. Old carcasses that have turned to rock through time a pressure, metamorphosis.
That's what science is, finding something and explaining it or researching it until you can, if you later find something about it that is different, you change your findings
Would the continent found under and around Iceland be the result of heightened sea levels?? This sort of thing is found in other areas of the world.
Top of the pressure cooker… Valve
Sorry, but I would never say Iceland is the most beautiful place in the world. Its maybe the most volcanically active place in the world, that I can believe.
I’ve seen that fall but can’t read the Icelandic language ! But was there for 3 weeks + was able to read the signs in American language !
American language, or ENGLISH LANGUAGE?
It's "Ari the Learn-NED"; you pronounce that last N-E-D syllable.
It's an AI robot me old mate.
@@1258-Eckhart And a clueless one, evidently....
this channel is real scientific...
what is it about narrative that draws us in?
COOL HISTORY INDEED 😎 👌 👍
Always wanted to go ❤
Well done with those Icelandic place names - you did very good! btw, an interning little vid.
I wonder if the man-made caves were the ones mentioned in the sagas where the Vikings were finding the last remnants of the population that was there before them that they were killing off?
That was the Irish Culdees, who kinda took off when the Norse folk showed up.
and I did see all, I must say that Iceland is magical and worth to see it , would I like to live there?? I am not sure but it is possible, living half a year during dark and sleeping second half of the year while sun is shining, that is one thing did bother me ( as if one year is your one day - day and night)
I'd not so. It's a gradual process.
Didn't some brave soul go over Skogofos in a kiyak?
I will stick with more scientific documentaries 😊
This place is far-out I must visit it…. Ohh I forgot I live here
Or is it just what you didn't learn because you didn't feel like paying attention?
Where are the trees
I believe he should of went with Greenland. Greenland is Iceburg, Iceland is more Green 😂😂 Physic!!
The text is American and the voiceover is British, hmmm ...
THE WATER IS THE TREASURE
Iceland is an amazing place and is being modified in real-time - an incredible example of how the land on this planet is formed....why talk about spirit/supernatural nonsense? It is an insult to people who aren't hard of thinking.
They are more concerned what's on Mars.
SMH. Maybe, just maybe, one day... Someone may tell the WHOLE truth 🥺🤔
Iceland was invented by The Vikings. They were also the first to Reach The Moon, also invented the wristwatch, supermarket, zip fastener and Pooh Tin...
As a norwegian, I agree lol.
Not all watches actually, only the Swatch. I invented the sun dial.
Dude, Vikings were not a race. It was a profession. A Viking was simply a warrior, that engaged in raiding and plundering. Much like the latter pirates of the seas. As people, they were primarily from the Scandinavian and Germanian regions. But there also were Vikings from the Baltics.
Yet the Body of the Giant God Atlas is called Australia and New Zealand. His Head in the Mouth of the Leviathan.
what the hayola is the title anout? The geology alone is sufficient, no need for the allusion of mysticism! Its a turn of for academis
Drop the fictional old stories
It's a good video, with interesting scenery and narration. We could do without the conspiracy theory type clickbait title, though. Who's being told what by whom? Nobody/nothing. "They" haven't told us anything about Iceland.
The narration is bull... full of made up noonsence
They r also some of the smartest people I’ve ever met !
