00:00Hello everyone!

00:01Lightning strikes that send shivers down your spine, stunning contrasts, and sudden swirling

00:08dust devils.

00:09The heroes of this compilation were fortunate enough to capture moments that happen once

00:14in a lifetime.

00:15Let's get it on.

00:30A massive tsunami, one of the strongest in Greenland's history, caught the fishermen

00:49by surprise, forcing them to quickly pack up.

02:14Cool!

02:16Careful!

02:18This guy's wife was filming him

02:20as he was getting ready to launch his paraglider

02:22when suddenly, a gust of wind lifted him off the ground.

02:26Fortunately, he wasn't hurt

02:28and was even able to continue his flight.

02:36Is he okay?

02:44Hey, boy, hello!

02:46Hey!

02:48Hey!

02:50Hey!

02:52Hey!

02:54Hey!

03:00Just imagine the power of the eruption

03:02if ash fell on a village so far from the volcano.

03:06People in India captured footage of a massive landslide

03:24that blocked the road for an entire day.

03:26Hawaii is a place where nature can be both breathtaking

03:40and intimidating at the same time.

03:44way

03:46Thank you!

03:47Hawaii is a place where nature can be both breathtaking

03:50and intimidating at the same time.

03:54Hawaii is a place where nature can be both breathtaking

03:55and intimidating at the same time.

03:57Oh my god

04:14The car, the car over there, the car over there, our car, our car

04:19Okay, okay, okay, it's okay

04:21Look at the car, it's been smashed again to the side

04:23Please can we go, please can we go

04:25Relax, relax, relax, relax, relax, relax, relax

04:30I need you to relax

04:39Look at the two cars

04:40Yes

04:41Did you take a photo?

04:42Yeah

04:43Oh yeah, it's awesome

04:45Yeah, pretty sure that's the USGS crew up there

04:55Listen to the sounds a small lake in Montana makes

05:08It's usually dead quiet

05:10Due to temperature changes, the ice constantly expands, contracts and cracks

05:30Causing sound waves to travel through it unevenly

05:33This leads to a phenomenon called acoustic dispersion

05:37It's one of the craziest things I've ever experienced

05:47I've heard it, just not like this

05:55A driver from Arizona found himself in an unexpected chase

06:09Not with the police, but with a real dust devil

06:12It's actually moving toward me

06:20Come on

06:23It's coming toward me

06:27What the heck

06:30Oh snap

06:31It's literally following me

06:34That's where I was parked at

06:37Coming this way

06:46What?

06:46What the heck?

06:48No

06:50No

06:52No

06:53Holy f**k

06:54Go away

06:56Holy f**k

06:57Really

06:57No

06:58No

06:59Look

06:59No

07:00Holy f**k

07:01Holy f**k

07:02No

07:04No, I don't know.

07:08Holy fuck.

07:20This is not normal.

07:24He's going around.

07:28He has to give gas.

07:30You have to see the holes.

07:34I love it.

07:36I love it.

07:38I love it.

07:40I love it.

07:42I love it.

07:44I love it.

07:46Have you seen it, Marina?

07:48Yes.

07:50The Gobi Desert is renowned not just for its immense size,

07:54but also for these singing dunes.

07:57The winds continually blow the sand around,

08:00and as a layer of shale shifts,

08:02it creates this fascinating sound.

08:04It's very standing ağa円.

08:14It's crazy.

08:16It's funny because they're fighting sound.

08:18You don't want to see the ground.

08:26I don't want to see the ground.

08:31I'm going to trap the ground in the right place.

08:39They don't want to see the ground.

08:45Fortunately for the operator

09:14and other observers, water spouts usually dissipate by the time they reach land and rarely

09:20move far inland.

09:44So, let's go.

10:55Oh my god!

10:58It's going to tip over.

11:04I'm recording it.

11:06Stand up in front of there, Flana.

11:10Right.

11:11This is too cool.

11:19This is too cool.

11:32The zoo won't come back in.

11:53The zoo won't come back in.

12:03Oh, man!

12:05What do we have?

12:15These clouds, known as lenticular clouds, appear only when there's high humidity and strong

12:37horizontal airflow. They may seem still from afar, but they're actually always in motion.

12:45In Iraq, sandstorms occur quite frequently, and every time they do, the cities end up looking

13:09like that from another plant. That is a Texas flag, and that flag is about 100 feet away.

13:16Oh well, nice day.

13:23Oh well, nice day.

13:30These tourists were incredibly lucky, as the

14:00approaching avalanche suddenly veered off course and passed just beside their camp.

14:07Oh my God.

14:08Oh my God!

14:12Blin, she walked right out.

14:16But, and there is still a wave.

14:20That's a wave of allá.

14:24Mamata's clouds are uncommon and usually appear only in tropical latitudes.

14:40The operator was fortunate to see them up close.

15:10What the whole lot's gonna go? Is it moving now? It's moving. It is moving. It's gonna go.

15:17It's going. It's going.

15:23Oh my god! Oh my god!

15:31Jeez!

15:40Jeez!

15:43Oh my god!

15:49Woo! Woo!

15:51Woo!

15:57Woo!

16:37Woo!

16:38a volcano made headlines worldwide due to an eruption that was the largest in centuries.

17:08A little dipper's down in there.

17:27Wow, look at that.

17:29Races well.

17:33As we watched the spectacle unfold to our amazement, there was a beaver riding one of

17:44the icebergs.

17:45It was just surfing right on the front of the wave and apparently doing just fine as

17:50it went around the corner and out of view.

17:55For fishermen, these events can be really dangerous.

18:02More than one person has unfortunately lost their lives due to one of these ice dam breaks

18:07on the Roaring Fork River.

18:08Be careful out there.

18:23The wind's power sends the waterfall's flow soaring upward, making it look as though the

18:29laws of physics are being broken.

18:31At the end of each year, an incredible phenomenon occurs on Christmas Island.

18:48Over a hundred million crabs migrate towards the ocean, a journey that takes them an average

18:54of 18 days.

19:01A bit of a miracle that the wind has a beautiful place to live.

19:03A bit of a miracle that it is.

19:04A bit of a miracle that there has been in our eyes on the roof because it's really

19:07so early on.

19:07A bit of a miracle that has been known to be taken from the boat and therefore

19:08a bit of a miracle that we have done.

19:12A bit of a miracle that the wind can be seen in the air.

19:15Yahoo!

19:25Excuse me

19:44Even the most skilled artists can't compete with nature in terms of creating beauty.

20:14According to witnesses, Pisa was thrown into chaos that day.

20:25The water spout was just a small part of the havoc that nature unleashed on this Italian

20:30city.

20:42To ward off threats and warn their fellow bees, honeybees employ this unique tactic.

20:49The more imminent and noticeable the danger, the stronger and more frequent these waves

20:54are.

20:56At first, it seems like a nest, but upon closer inspection, you'll see it's actually

21:08a cluster of harvestmen.

21:11Their legs can sometimes be as much as 20 times longer than their bodies.

21:17So, let's go.

21:24Let's go.

21:26Let's go.

21:32Let's go.

21:34Let's go.

21:42Let's go.

22:01The Squirrel King is a peculiar and rare event where several squirrels become entangled by their

22:09tails and can't free themselves. This usually happens because of resin, fur, or nesting refuse.

22:30This unusual tree is located in Olympic National Park in Washington. Locals have nicknamed it the

22:49tree of life because it has managed to survive without its roots ever touching the ground.

22:54By all biological laws, this tree should have perished years ago, but instead it stands

23:01as a living testament to the strength of perseverance.

23:24The tide has turned this mix of sand and ice into a unique sculpture.

23:31I totalling the snow.

23:42So, if you want to get in the middle of a rock, you can't get a drop!

23:56Oh, shit!

23:57Oh, shit!

24:18Yeah!

24:19Oh, shit!

24:20Oh, shit!

24:31Look at that.

24:32Oh, my God, that's amazing.

24:35This is boring.

24:40Yeah, so bright.

24:41You can feel the heat.

24:43Incredible footage from Hawaii.

24:45Lava, with a temperature of about 1100 degrees Celsius,

24:49flows into the ocean,

24:51creating a massive steam plane rising into the air.

24:55Look at this!

24:55Oh, fuck!

24:56Oh, fuck!

24:57Oh, fuck!

24:58Oh, my God!

24:59I can feel that heat.

25:00Oh, my God.

25:15Oh, my God.

25:16Oh, my God.

25:20Oh, my God.

25:24Oh, my God, it's...

25:55It seems the ice flow ruthlessly swept away everything in its path,

26:24including the trees.

29:36Scientists have concluded that these ice discs form due to swirling currents that cause the ice to spin and take on a perfect round shape.
