MORE? PLZ

[gizzod678]

so we get bad storms cause of black people |:

[revoltkid123]

if i was a kid that created a hurricane by playing in the sand, ill feel pretty freaking powerful.

[MISSMAURS]

MY TEACHER MADE ME WATCH THIS PIECE FO CRAP

[revoltkid123]

@MISSMAURS if she made you watch it and you didnt like it, then why are you watching it on youtube? :/

[demsachewl]

thummbs up if you go to KWC and you're watching this cuz of the geog homework...

ash

if you dont know who i am or what im talking about ignore this...

[zl4iuzmh]

@demsachewl i don't go to kwc but i am doing this for geog homework

[GermanOperaSinger]

Not all hurricanes originate in Africa, many record breaking systems formed east of the Bahamas or in the west Caribbean.

[gnasbolify]

dude i am really scared i am in the east coast dude and my first time in a hurrican!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[tbarnes22]

@gnasbolify RUN!

[TallyRock100]

All u guys over there need to go sit! I'm just sayn LOL! I 'm gettin my hurricane on Sunday 8:00 am! So freaking sared! : * (

[codegeassfanone]

@TallyRock100 cool can't wait watch you on TV Canada yo

[TallyRock100]

@codegeassfanone Thar's not good!

[codegeassfanone]

@TallyRock100 good hopes, hope you make it out i'll check it out see you on TV Canada yooo

[thrownover65]

Notice: the little girl's name was Katrina LOL Of course....

[thrownover65]

You people who are arguing over whether it's "Africa's fault" are dimwits. Just stop before you look even stupider.

[TheLemonSap]

You know what I noticed. Africa just shits storms that turn into hurricanes.

[syddyjones]

Blame it on black ppl thts all white ppl kw 2 do kmdt

[johanerasmus7]

@syddyjones shame little black man!!!..feeling sorry for yourself....??? im white and from africa .....so now its probably the white mans fault....

[Steerway213]

Fake.

[7466309change]

ok an animal can walk cause it too.

[hop208]

That little girl's name was Katrina...

[megazwatcher]

so your saying hurricanes are Africa's fault?

[fatboyfromdamidwest]

The Butterfly Effect!

[salakast]

in florida, we dont care about hurricanes, we throw parties!! me and my mom usually get drunk and sometimes play in the puddles while bricks are flying around us :D

[rapkid123rocks]

@salakast um i live in florida to n i do care if a hurrican come n how u so post to throw a party ???? ur light turn off

[robertslistening]

What a bunch of bullshit. A million people walking in the sand isn't going to cause any trouble compared to blowing holes in the ozone with rockets and jets and cars and nuclear explosions and every other stupid thing that short sighted scientists invent.

[yourtube1234567]

Epic @ 1:14 !!

[MelletjeDuhh]

Am I the only one who sees the lighting on 2:01?

[AuraQueenDraconis]

@MelletjeDuhh I saw it, too.

[rTxMoNsTeRz]

So hurricane Isabel was created by a little girl? damn.

[snuman06]

Stop jumping on the sand little girl!

[B4HARBORxAREAxGxFUNK]

i feel sorry for people getting caught u in a hurricane

[STARMANMARIO100]

damn africa. U scary

[0uglyface00]

Africans enslaved their own people and sold them

[yourtube1234567]

@0uglyface00

Stop spreading lies.

[0uglyface00]

@yourtube1234567 How about you know the truth before commenting. Africans enslaved their own people and sold them. Europeans were cruel and inhumane indeed and the same is said for the many centuries of slavery before that. And im sure not all African tribes sold their own people. I didnt live through it or anything

[yourtube1234567]

@0uglyface00

Really.

Okay, first off, I got my "truth" from the text book, which I'm pretty sure a white guy wrote.

Second, there's a movie called "roots". If they didn't want people to learn the "truth" they would had lie and made it so that Africans sold out their own kind.

Third, I agree with you about Africans enslaving their own kind, but highly disagree with you about them selling them own kind to whites.

Fourth, if they did, how the hell did they even learn how to speak english?

[omvenom]

so if i want to make a cat 5 hurricane then i have to go to africa, eat some beans, fart, and then wait for it to fuck some ppl up??

[IR0N360]

Damn african child!

[payaning2x]

very awesome to know :D...

[dgnmwn]

Hurricanes are born on the ocean, not on land. Retards.

[Alirsonnn]

@dgnmwn It's the air, the winds...water isn't the only factor in hurricane formation.

[dgnmwn]

@Alirsonnn I said ON the ocean, not in it. It's the air over the ocean. They cannot be formed on land. They die on land. That's why Katrina never wiped out half the US.

[Alirsonnn]

@dgnmwn Yes, but the winds start from somewhere. No one said that hurricanes are formed on land. The wind that turns into a hurricane may start anywhere.

[dgnmwn]

@Alirsonnn They are formed through evaporation on the ocean surface. Water evaporates, leaving an area with air of lower pressure (cyclone) beneath it. Air travels from high to low pressure in a counterclockwise (N hemisphere) pattern, thus further increasing evaporation in the eye. If what you say would be true, then any wind could give birth to a hurricane, which is complete hogwash. They are not made from winds, winds are made by them (low pressure areas in general).

[Alirsonnn]

@dgnmwn The air over the water has to be warm as well. It takes more than one factor to create a hurricane. And just because you may not agree with something, doesn't mean you should call them 'retards'. That's very insulting.

[dgnmwn]

@Alirsonnn And could you please tell me what that has to do with your statement according to which hurricanes are made from land winds? There's a great lack of logic here.

[Alirsonnn]

@dgnmwn I said that the air has to be warm as well, did you bother to read the entire comment? My lack of logic is no greater than your lack of manners. Politeness is an admirable trait.

[Alirsonnn]

@dgnmwn Oh, and look up tropical wave or easterly wave. Low pressure systems, capable of causing hurricanes, and don't have to form over water. And please keep the insults to a minimum? This is a discussion on a youtube video, not a fight in a back alley.

[dgnmwn]

@Alirsonnn HURRICANES ARE FORMED OVER WATER. Regular low pressure systems/cyclones can be formed on both. "Hurricane" is a term for North Atlantic/US Coast cyclones. Retard.

[Prirodnocarstvo]

THUMPS UP to BBC...Love watchng their videos

[Prirodnocarstvo]

woa woa woa, how did we go from beautiful mother nature...to talkng about history.

A little grl playng in the sand? what r the chances of that i dont believe its possible.

[Sm0k4bl3]

interesting, reminds me of my old science teacher, he used to tell butterflies would fly somewhere and cause a hurricane on the other side of the world. everyone said he was crazy, even the other teachers lol

[RifelBo]

So, if i walk on the sand in africa i can start a hurricane to LOL

[osnocksdisciple]

Who is the man with the irritatingly stupid voice giving the commentary? Makes it impossible to listen to.

[assassin4than]

A little girl in africa that can affect the weather directly?

Men, Ororo Monroe is real!

[karategirl1232]

actually, no one has more power than Jesus but Jesus and his father himself. But that is very true that even if u kick the sand up, the air will catch it, and bring it will cold air. both will mix, or collide, and the next thing u know is a HURRICANE!!!!

[LightBlueIsAwesome]

wow i never knew a little gurl could set off a wind storm thing

[MrQuackism]

That's scary.

[EBIKERIDER1]

Even if U fart in africa your likely to stur up a storm.

[mcgyvr2009i]

@EBIKERIDER1 You can create a fire-cane if you light a lighter and fart on it.

[xxxRCT3FREAKxxx]

@EBIKERIDER1 That'll be one stinky hurricane :D

[watchensee]

@EBIKERIDER1 Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! "{xD

[fukdyamum]

That little girl has more power than Jesus!

[tuxedo1646]

WOAH GOOD THING I DON'T LIVE THERE ROFL !!!!!!!

[3sheetz2thawind]

Anyone that says that this is Africa's revenge for slavery obviously knows less than DICK about history!!! Africans were enslaving their own people before the white colonists ever showed up to the continent! Then, the chiefs of the African tribes SOLD their own people as slaves to the white man. So, saying hurricanes is revenge for slavery makes no sense! Unless the hurricanes are hitting Africa and several places in the world where slavery occurred! Which they do not!

[dontworrybehappy6]

@3sheetz2thawind It's a joke dude, don't take it so seriously.

[worldcitizen4]

@3sheetz2thawind Africans were never a people. Africa was a very big place where existed many countries at the time of the european arrival. None African kingdom had enslaved their own people, otherwise, Romans enslaved their own people too.

[warrior5502]

hurricanes are traveling the same routes as slavery routes and witches are sending those storms to America

[mocus1]

a little girl on the beach causes hurricanes......dang what the hell are you smoking white guy?

[radgemasterben]

amazin

[crzybtch1000]

fucking niggers



[agearmaster1]

This is actually wrong the moister comes from the indian ocean monsoon not from sand :/.And not all hurracanes come from africa they also form in the carribien from moister moving north from south america.The aafrican hurracanes are from the cape verde season.

[GelandnaleG]

1:46pm Monday (CST) - Time in M

[telters]

that is not how a hurricane is born or at least maybe a little one but not that big!!!

[irelandcool1]

@telters your right hurricane Dean from the 2007 hurricane season was not that big at all it was only a category 5 hurricane

[ronniery1]

the problem is how to change the wind direction...prevent from it occur..

[irelandcool1]

@ronniery1 if we do that earth would be a harsher place to live

[myabcabc123123]

theres a huricane on its way on Sunday 7th November 2010.

[markdipaolo]

2012 is in it's way!!!!!

[Gumanning]

very intresting

[Leizazure]

Okay , if terrorists see this , they will bomb planes in africa then the hurricanes will kill america correct?

[AnvilRTX]

this would make me think... africa is a trap for manking o.O do not step on forbidden land, or the rest of the world will suffer its wrath... each step you take brings more devastation to the other side...

okay, i need to get some sleep, i'm going crazy xD

...african people o.O stop walking!! lol

[oxfordgirls123]

i will never go to the beach again from dis day foward im going to my aunties pool and i live in the Caribbean

[oxfordgirls123]

i will never go to the beach again from dis day foward im going to my aunties pool

[Skullhuntre]

is this your Natgeo explanation of chaos theory? the butterfly effect?

[craig2085]

i surprised that they don't try to ban people and animals to live where the hurricanes starts in Africa i know it stupid but i am still surprised they haven't tried to banned it

[jaxx4nc]

THATS A GREAT VID... VERY INTERESTING

[stickmanpwner64]

Why must that little inocent girl cause over 1 billion dollars in damage?

[phoenixjadyen]

@stickmanpwner64 I don't know either....but.... SHE'S GROUNDED! NO MORE CANDY FOR HER! LOL

[MileyGagaBoy]

@stickmanpwner64 lol

[caribbeangirl100]

wolfsband909; i just cant get up and move! imagine if everyone in the caribbean is thinking that- where would we go?( massive exodus) anyways am not afraid of hurricanes- hurricane earl passed far away- nothing major happened on my island compared to the other islands.

[Coolkid482]

i am getting one tomarrow. :'-(

[LILTINY6]

@Coolkid482 me too

[mikailxxx]

if you act wrong will punish you gott so

[caribbeangirl100]

the warm tropical water of the atlantic helps in hurricane formation. speaking of hurricanes- hurricane earl is sending a dark shawdow and hot stillness over my island as i type right now. soon the rain will come.

[Wolfsbane909]

@caribbeangirl100 if you're so worried why not just move?

[tangikis]

Did he just say warm tropical waters of the atlantic?

[bolted11]

I could have figured that much out sitting at home. This guys has not given any new or creditable information on how hurricanes are born, at all. Complete wast of time and money. Could be that man is not meant to know everything? I dont buy the example of what triggers a easterly wave. No real prove, only stated..

[superleftysourflap]

so you're saying little girls in deserts cause hurricanes? well why didn't terrorists think of that??

[inveiglment5402]

So If we're thinking on making cyclones then yes by just playing in sands

[bflatism]

This was how Hurricane Andrew formed in 1992 (for those of you who remember). I was too young to remember that, but I read all about it

[jjrglobal]

Someone stop that little girl!!!

[tengkuirfan1]

is it true

[lynnandian]

poor fishs they will be in it!!

[MissBabyRosie]

we cant do anything anymore. Not even stepping in the sand, what a sad life.

[DoubleDutchBust]

2:30pm Friday (BST) - Time in United Kingdom

[egocentric888]

Bullshit. Its HAARP not africans causing all this! 

[Yoguslayer]

@egocentric888 I'm with you. The responsible is HAARP.

[JackSouthernComfort]

chaos effect

[lordcrobar]

oh yeah it's a lttle girl.

It's not HAARP or anything...

[stacyy3]

In what movie is that where the kid triggers a huricane?

it was in an movie...

[adamcohen22]

nice

[ralphingo]

Africa's revenge for slavery!

[handzoutmypocket]

@ralphingo You might be joking but i believe that 's true really that goes for any situation and race the energy you put out it comes back maybe you could develope a third eye!

[616eric]

@ralphingo: "Africa's Revenge?" The Black man has been repressed by the Black Man. What does this Africa's Revenge mean? Revenge for the "Savages" that sold a (physically superior race for labor) to the USA Southern states for CRAPPY Cotton Picken Labor Jobs? Get you some research in (on what percentage of slave owners were actually black) and you will see even more info that will piss you off. But really....

Slavery (Really)....????

Please explain this comment....

[inkme1983]

@ralphingo Nooooo Africa's revenge for slavery was AIDS and Oprah Winfrey.

[vegasnegas111]

@ralphingo What revenge would that be? Africans sold their own people into slavery.

[DAISYDUKESnRAINBOOTS]

@vegasnegas111 lmao. you took the words right out my fingers.

[yourtube1234567]

@vegasnegas111

Not really...ugh nvm.....brain wash people hurt my brain.

[vegasnegas111]

@yourtube1234567 umad?

[yourtube1234567]

@vegasnegas111

hmmmm....not really. How are you today?

[Lovejit2323]

LOLL yo i need to use this shytt in a school homework thingy

[rapidov6]

@Lovejit2323 me too

[ParallaxFilm]

Interesting!

[chivasusachris1]

dam african kids lol

[Ishikawa01]

You guys seriously take things too literally.

Of course stepping into sand will not create a disturbance, but he meant that atmospheric pressure can be extremely small to start one. He just used it to explain how tiny it might be. Seriously, go back and study your english language again before stepping on people's toes with your big sloppy shoes. Morons.

[repair45]

just walking through the sand will create a storm is bullshit, thats what all the global warming scientists want you to beleive

[Comed3y]

no , you just dont know shit and like acting like you do ...

[891Dolphins]

Hurricanes are evil.... :P

[WeatherHunter]

love th video

[Gebora]

holy cow if they had a party in that area they can send us some category 6's!

[Bachiatari]

She knows she's doing it. Didn't you see that smile on her face?

[SuperSpyXT]

Children, don't step in sand or you will create hurricanes to the US! STOP STEPING ON SAND!!!!!!!!!

[lvxarchielvx]

so if i fart i might create 1 lol XD

[jacklanting]

That would be awesome!

[lvxarchielvx]

wunt  it (:

[aurora990]

wow. it just amazes me what is normally a harmless small wind whirl in Africa grows into a hurricane.

[Leugim010]

wow!

I can create hurricanes! xD

[linebacker442]

So a large group of Africans could run around in the desert to fuck over America, like a natural missle?

That's just sneaky. Haha.

[SpreadingAwareness]

i wish they would

[playthefield21]

That little girl causes hurricanes!!

[apez7127]

@playthefield21 im agree!!!!

[omarelsewefy]

@playthefield21 The Butterfly Effect

[Wolfsbane909]

@playthefield21 shes a witch!!

[3ri123]

@playthefield21 LMFAO

[jasinski7]

i lov papr

[jasinski7]

i spel stuf rong

[93hellsoldier]

hahahha

[DKdixiekong]

bbc is inteligent.

[habbadou]

BBC is politically correct.

[Wolfboy183]

Wow, so by a complex means a kid kicking up sand in Sub-Sahara can still do massive vandalism?

Epic.

[93hellsoldier]

so thats lil bitch caused the jimena hurricane lol jk fuking kill her

[drbenz78]

Jimena formed in the Pacific, not in the Atlantic, moron. "hellsoldier". Real soldiers don't let much rattle them, but your rattled by a ficticious little girl in africa. lmao. Understand that America may be a superpower, but a little girl in Africa can bring your country to its knees!!! lmao

[Bountyhunter9000]

genius, kill all the little children so there will be less hurricanes! why didn't I think of that???

[Heemsky]

O.O

[Heemsky]

O.O'''' wow ill never look at lil hildren the same again IM GNNA JUST YEAH YOU WONT WNNA KNWO WHAT ILL DO

[dragonrow3]

lol how funny i would create a hurricane with my legs thats awesome but dont get me wrong hurricanes are very bad thing just saying its alittle funny

[scroller1]

racism, pure and simple

[habbadou]

God you're stupid.

[scroller1]

habbadou...sarcasm is lost on you.

[refinnej83jennifer]

so beautiful how everything is interconnected

[40stinrd]

More gifts from Africa.......Thanks

[Revollving]

Made in Africa : )

[choppolata]

Another gift they have is a potential land slide of half a trillion tons of rock that will fall into the sea and make a tsunami 10 times bigger than the one that hit thailand

[PTSorceress]

Interesting...but I think the Raging Planet series explains it better.

[geekdiggy]

i still don't understand how a little girl's dust devil would have enough momentum to carry into the atmosphere and having this kind of effect. i'd say the tromping of a herd of heavy animals would be more to blame.

[SatanicCod]

The whole dust-devil thing is there to take the extreme end of the chaos theory; the butterfly who can start an hurricane. There's a part of truth in this but it can't be proven successfully. If you are searching for a reason in hurricanes, talking into account warming on the air over large desert areas and the convection movement caused by this very heating is a much more probable cause.

[fulltruck]

It is kind of like the straw that broke the camel's back..... The girl couldn't cause it all on her own, however it might not happen that day if not for her.

[TiminPhoenix]

In the name of God, stop all shipments of humanitarian aid, that includes beans, brocolli, cabbage to Africa!
