Europe Is Cracking Apart — COLLAPSE IMMINENT - A Mountain Between Germany and Austria Is Splitting
TRANSCRIPTION COMPLÈTE
All right, listen everybody. This is
something that you don't see every day.
An entire massive mountain in Europe is
breaking apart. And it is literally
breaking apart. We can see it. We can
look into the ais. It's really, really
crazy. And it's right on the border
between Germany and Austria. So, both
countries are affected by this. The
mountain is 8,500
ft high, close to 3,000 m, and it's
called the Hoger. It's a German word. If
we translate it, it's like the high
bird. But right now, this guy is
splitting into two. And we're not
talking about thousands of years. We're
talking about right now in real time.
And that could have an effect. I mean
after bloodton in Switzerland we all
know what this means because right now
the scientists are not longer asking if
it will collapse only when and I've
reported about this I think a year ago
but now here's the latest at the summit
of the hoof fog there's a massive
fracture that has opened and widened
since I last talked about it and guys I
want to make clear this is not just a
track. This is a deep structural break
and at that time of the year when the
snow is melting and rain is coming um
that is when we have a very very high
risk of something like this happening.
We've seen it with bloodton. This was
the time when she started to his hit the
fizzy. And I want to tell you how deep
this crack is because that is massive.
So we're talking about 130 feet deep.
That's over 40 m guys. This is how you
can look into this if you were as crazy
and tried to go there and look down
because you might be standing on a
mountain that literally could crack
apart any moment. So, you don't want to
stand there wide. It's already 10 ft
wide that's over 3 m and it's cutting
straight across the peak of the
mountain. So, this is quite a
substantial mountain peak that everybody
knows in the area. So they call it like
the Matahorn
um of the algoy. So Matahon is in
Switzerland, but that's what they call
it. It's a significant mountain peak
that everybody recognizes. So if that's
gone, bad, right? And I want to say that
the depth and the width of that crack is
growing every year about 1 to two
inches. That's roughly like 3 to six cm.
like this doesn't sound much, but guys,
that can have a huge implication because
it is going to lose stability at some
point. And it seems we're not far away
from that. So, think about this. You
really have to get this in your hand.
We're dealing with a mountain that's
8,500
ft tall and it's actively tearing itself
apart inch by inch. And right now we
already have 140,000 cubic meters that
were coming down from this peak. But we
have around another 260,000
cubic meters of rock that are unstable
right now. That's about 9 million cubic
feet. They're ready to break loose and
probably will break loose all at once.
And here is what makes this even more
serious. The unstable section. Which
countries affected? Germany and Austria.
Are they both affected? Well, most
likely we can say that where it's going
to break apart, the shizzy is going to
hit the fizzy in Austria.
If it collapses, it will fall into the
Hanbach Valley that's down below the
summit. And guys, you have to understand
that won't be just falling rocks. That
can trigger like a domino effect. We've
seen it in Blaten. The gla the top was
breaking apart, falling on the glacier.
Glacier was breaking apart, tearing
everything with it. So, we have probably
in the works here. Starts to crack,
starts to crumble, massive rockfall,
debris flows, mud, avalanches that are
racing down into the valley with within
seconds. So the southern summit there is
now classified as acutely unstable
acutely. So there used to be a climbing
road right through this zone. It's
called the Boymanheim V. This has been
shut down for years because what's if
going up there right now is basically
risking your life. But just two days ago
there was another article that hikers
still want to get up there and are
getting up there from the other side.
They want to go up there one last time
before it's gone. I think this is crazy.
And you also see the images how they're
looking down into the abyss, right? This
is the crack where the people are
standing. I would not stand there.
Absolutely not. This going up there
right now is basically risking your
life. And here is where it becomes
something else entirely. The scientists
are of course now monitoring this
mountain. It's like a ticking time bomb,
that ticking clock. And they have
installed GPS sensors, laser scanners,
seismometers, right? And they can detect
movements smaller than a millimeter. And
many scientists say, well, the mountain
is singing. The seismometers are
registering the slow cracking of the
mountains. We know this from
earthquakes. If something cracks,
right? It it it it creates the
seismometers to scale. So because of
that, this
might be one of the few times in history
actually where a mountain collapse can
be predicted before it happens. So
researchers are saying if the crack
suddenly speeds up from about 0.4 in a
day right now to 0.4 in an hour, that's
it. That's the warning sign. It's like
if you want to fall a tree, right?
You're hacking into it. You're hacking
into it. you're hacking into it and and
it gets thinner and thinner and there
comes that moment when the tree gets out
of balance and starts to fall. So, it
accelerates,
that's what's going to happen to that
mountain. So, if that's the warning sign
that they're waiting for, right? 0.4 in
per hour. And at that point, authorities
could have just two to three days before
a major collapse. So, it's going fast.
But here's the part that most people get
wrong. This is not about melting
perafrost. What we're dealing with in
Switzerland in many mountains, this
mountain doesn't have permafrost. This
is something else. This is not thawing
and ice melting, glaciers melting, and
then making making the rocks instable
because the ice was keeping them
together. This mountain is made of a
brittle rock. That's the problem. the
the rock is called dolomite. And
unfortunately, this rock is already
naturally full of fractures. So what
we're seeing right now is one of these
fractures that is opening up under
stress. Water now gets into the crack,
makes it more vulnerable, right? It
water gets in, it freezes, water
expands. That of course is making the
crack wider and it slowly forces the
mountain apart. And when it rains like
everything accelerates. So that's why I
said right now we're entering a critical
phase. So the scientists observed that
the movement is increasing five to six
times faster during heavy rainfall
unfortunately. So what you're watching
here will not be just a sudden disaster
and it's not a sudden disaster. This is
a slow structural failure that is
reaching its breaking point. We're
close. And when that happens, it likely
won't be one single collapse. At least
that's what we're hoping for. That's
what they were hoping in Blaten. And
then everything came down at once,
right? So, by the way, if you want to
see what's happening in Blaten, I have
an update there. I have a Blatton
playlist. Check that out on my channel.
And please leave this video a like and a
hype. doesn't cost you anything, but it
helps my channel. Thanks for that. So,
right now, the experts hope, they say
they believe it will happen in multiple
stages over several hours. Now, here's
the part that sounds reassuring, but it
isn't. Actually, it's not. Um yes we can
