[vazkilzan]

when i woke up i thought the sun was unleashing its red lightness and my dad thought the terminator 2 arrived ROFL! xD

[jaypay777]

i live in sydney and i saw that it was so crazy

[ttmm1133]

ha ha everyone is scared that its radioactive from the uranium mines in South Australia seriously everyone relax!

[Maulderin]

lol its funny how forigners think Sydney is our capitol, and lol at these people who made this vid its a news thing and they still got it wrong. OUR CAPITOL IS CANBERRA...lol, but it should be Melbourne ^.^)

[pullybrit]

Red Skies At Night....Red Skies At Night...Ah Ohhh...Oh Oh Oh Oh aha Oh Oh

[BonelessSausage]

Happens to me on my long walks on Mars. Ed

[asmetuyasiempre]

next dust storm.,connect big ducts to a vacum pumps with the cement companiens an bag tha sand or mix it to make cement or glass.,

[Kingkong922]

British accent is so annoying.

[bennyboy775]

my flight was delayed 7 hours because of this

[Buttons61]

No...definitely not radioactive. Just simple red dust blow in by incredible wind from the red center.

[maiwandwal]

I heard this was RADIOACTIVE. Hence the RED GLOW

All across Europ they were told its radioactive..... what the hell r they experimenting on ppl

[JDMAero]

I... Speak... Like... The.... Reporter... Who... Needs... To... Stop... After....Every...Word. FOR FUCKS SAKES WOMAN CONTIUNUE YOUR DAMNED SENTENCES!

[murdock6107]

she went to the William Shatner" school of speech. lol

[ProJanitor]

I have a mouse trap clinging to my tongue right now.

[nickwhite94]

dust maybe, but at least theres no ashes around over there.. XD

[artace1987]

I wouldn't be surpeised if this was a man-made dust storm. For all we know there could be harmful chemicals in that dust. Why did this happen in a huge city? Because there are a lot of people there. They want to harm as many people as possible.

[maclover201]

Who are THEY? :)

[artace1987]

illuminati/jewish/satanist/zio­nist/masons/etc.THAT'S WHO.

[r0unda]

that is the dumbest thing i ever heard.... we lost tonnes of topsoil from the week long constant wind that blew this dust from inland NSW and south australia towards the coast....man made??

[Largo64]

The climate change conditions that caused general rise in temperature, and hence the excessive loss of topsoil were manmade. But never mind. Maybe you'll die before the coastal floods come, and never have to admit the obvious.

[MrDoesntmatter]

you know earth heats up and cools on its own anyway, humans are just making it a HELL of a lot worse.

[88pie88]

2012 is bull i remember ppl said it was goona end in 2000, and in 2006. and in 1990. even if the world is gonna end i dont care. i would just go around out side and shoot at my nabors cat.

[JANETSW12]

No wonder the world is in the state it is in when you can't even talk like respectful human beings to each other over a bloody computer!! What hope is there when people see each other face to face!! Why is there such need for the insults, vile words and mockery of other people?!

[bcmalloy]

Considering i left Sydney due to the insane real estate prices years ago this is kind of ironic.

[joblagz]

this is how nasa wants us to think mars looks like

[ghost05051971]

all I have to say is 2012, the end times are here, the red dust storm is just one of the signs.. but hey, what do I know

[PR0GRAMMING]

Fuck all is what you know.

[archibaldthesimple]

Idiots with the climate change excuse... DUST STORMS ARE NATURAL THEY HAPPEN AUSTRALIA IS DRY AND DUSTY SHOCK BLOODY HORROR..... Why do people instantly blame climate change.... It like the new RADIATION, If something odd happens lets blame that.

[PsuedoSenator]

We have to do something about climate change :(

[bcmalloy]

We sure do but considering Australia emits 1.3%of global greenhouse gasses, turning off every car and power station in the country would not make a difference globaly ..........

[PsuedoSenator]

Well I'm not Australian, but I meant the world must collectively make an effort. If we do, it could help beautiful Australia, as well as many other places.

[PsuedoSenator]

Guy @ 0:42 is 72!!!

Looks good.

[leon6266]

how come I didnt get text warning piror this happened and can I claim this on my tax return?

[alizai99]

what are we humans nothing if the nature wanna destroy us it don't take long, half day to destroy all Sydney yet we men are boast full we are arrogant

[g00gl]

Im luky . i left sydney 1 day b4 the storm.

[CelestialTorment]

me too ... lol

[gangsterturk25]

It's probably dangerous but it looks beautiful.

[laggie24]

Below message goes for the skunk called

overhang88

[3yearappentice]

yeah he does i was thinking that

[AussietheAustralian]

looks like this is going to be a regular event here in Australia. Doesn't help being the driest continent on Earth either...

[31974]

Antarctica is the driest continent on Earth.

[soseg]

Antarctica is more dry

[agemaveric]

They said driest inhabited continent, Antarctica isnt habited.

[AussietheAustralian]

Another dust storm hit today, and is moving over 2 states.

[xXxGot2BbighairxXx]

:O looks like mars :P

[melliexo]

oh it was... it was

[Choowbz]

More dust today Sat 26 I woke up choking and my children are all sick and coughing

The cause of this dust is from excessive land clearing in the far inland

The farmers are removing the ground cover that holds the soil in place

They call it "INS Invasive Native Scrub"

That is regrowth of the healing scab of native vegetation

TheNVact of 05 was introduced to stem this practise but has been limply enforced

Ground holding native regrowth is being removed now even as you read these words

[CalxP]

you know when i red it in the news it said it came from the ocean o.o

[CalxP]

which is messed up

[schussuk]

The red sky and other sights were really cool, but I'm sure a lot has to be done to get it all cleaned up!!

[melliexo]

It came from another state to the west of Sydney and spread over most of NSW

[imloslitos]

Revelation 6.12 I watched as he opened the sixth seal. There was a great earthquake. The sun turned black like sackcloth made of goat hair, the whole moon turned blood red,

[bigpunzi]

You fucking idiot. You bible bashing cunts always find a way to twist shit. The whole moon? It was the whole fucking sky dickweed.

/rant.

[danbuck333]

[sonicboom23]

[saponstruo]

Our Planet is showing how hurt it is

[atocombabaya]

i agree

[taylor2144]

i was dissapointed cause i woke up at 6:40 to look out the window and see bright orange and was like "YAY the worlds going to end!! :D"... but was soon dissapointed when i found out it was dust

that video was near my house at manly wharf :D

[bfavreforprez]

Don't be to dissapointed my friend, this is iron oxide red dust from the planet nibiru its coming in from the south, and its charged tail has iron oxide, that is why australia is so heavily coated in iron oxide, as when nibiru passes it unleashes much red dust and cause a pole shift so humanity is up agaisnt another pole shift from nibiru.

[taylor2144]

Hahahahhahaha wooooo yay.

i like u, u remind me of nothing.. which is good

[Unknownuse1]

was exactly the same at bribie island on the same day i was on holiday there just when it happened.

[TheOztralia]

argh...the drought!!!

[thesatanicchef]

Looks like "Burning Man" in sydney!!! Fuck yeah!

[overhang88]

I wish more people died because of this lol

[royalpanthera7]

why do you wish people to die?

[laggie24]

I deeply wish and hope ya go first and die.. why are ya still living... shit will always remain sit and u are stinking like a dead 1 week fish already!!!

[harmesy37]

overhang88...You pathetic piece of crap. it's people like you who create all the misery and sadness in the world....You hide behind your stupid name and say things you would never dare to say on the streets of Sydney, if you did you would be running like the mangy dog you are looking for our legal system to protect you because in this country we believe in freedom of speech and that would even mean you...You disgust me.....

[rattus23]

i used it as an excuse not to get outta bed in the morning :D

[andrewh23]

Damn terrorist dust storms! Iran is responsible for this. We better invade them right now.

[vesnasvati]

Wow....that looks like a real pain. How you doin there? I am in the USA (I think you call us yanks) We have tornados occasionally near where I live as well as snow storms and last year, even though we are far inland, a hurricane knocked a bunch of trees down for the first time ever. Best Wishes Ausies!!

[hellokitty2022]

I bet everyone had really crusty boogers that day!

[moshpit911]

wharrr you see that asian girl at 1:10 :P

[zoszos5]

i live in sydney and i remeber going to school in a dust storm it was awsome

[DSLemming]

Wow ITN fail. Canberra is the capital of Australia. PROOF READ YOUR SCRIPT.

[zoszos5]

Not reali sydney is were the settlers came so sydney is the capital but theres somthing going on saying canberra should be so theres confusion so far its canberra being the capital

[fruconi]

you should learn to spell

[bestjonbon]

I saw this on network news yesterday, but not this thorough. Fantastic stuff! Heck of a sandstorm!

[Mogz80]

as jordangerousx said, canberra is the capital of aussie land, not sydney

[substacja]

Is Sydney the Capital?!!!

[purpchin65]

I was in Sydney a week ago and it was beautiful. I can't imagine being there is such a huge dust storm. After being at Ayers Rock in the N.T. I can see where all the red dust came from because it's everywhere there.

[lostinseganet]

This happened in America once during the depression. The soil was really messed up.

[theelman]

OMG ITN!! Seriously... Sydney "The Capital", "Australia is the worlds driest CONTINENT". Get your basic facts correct.. looks crazy though. Imagine what its like in smaller towns, must be worse in some places not being reported on.

[patricksthlondon]

Its the capital of New South Wales

[Fmaack]

Capital of New South Wales. Driest INHABITED continent.

[theelman]

Last time I checked Australia isnt a continent.. Australasia is. And if you think our news meant Sydney as the capital of NSW, you are mistaken. They meant the country form the way it was said. oh dear ITN

[cobolt95]

australia is a continent, the largest island country as well.

[cobolt95]

the lay definition is "One of the main continuous bodies of land on the earth's surface." By that definition, the continent of Australia includes only the Australian mainland, From the perspective of geology a "continent" may be understood to include the continental shelf and the islands on the shelf, which are taken to be structurally part of the continent. By that definition Tasmania, New Guinea and other nearby islands are part of the Australian continent,

[thegirlwithbrowneyes]

Australia IS a continent. Located in the Asia-Pacific Region. If they're refering to the capital of NSW, sure it's Sydney, but they might be refering to Canberra?

[CrydezTV]

Australia is a continent Newzealand and australia are both one continent except there were little gnomes who didnt want to be apart of australias mainland so they cut off new zealand and yea.

[pam1257]

Surrounded by the IndianN4 and Pacific oceans, Australia is separated from Asia by the Arafura and Timor seas. The world's smallest continent[8] and sixth largest country by total area,[7] Australia owing to its size and isolation is often dubbed the 'island continent'[47] and variably considered the world's largest island.[48 so last time I looked Australia IS a continent and Sydney is the Capital of NSW

[Quarker99]

lol, when i woke up, my whole room was orange, i immediately thought something was wrong with my eyesight...

[al28283]

they should check their facts before they report it

[jordangerousx]

Canberra is the capital of Australia. You are all cunts.

[burnsy96]

lol guys, if ppl want to think Sydney is the capital of Australia, I wont stop them =D

Sydney should have been anyway, coz we have iconic buildings and what does Melbourne have?

Australian history on some crook who killed a bunch of ppl and wore a large bake beans can on his head?

To be honest, I dont want Australia to be thought of as a place for ppl to die.

(Oh and do I have to mention where "Under Belly" was set?)

[matthewyogreaves]

Melboune isnt the capital of australia its the ACT

[burnsy96]

I wonder if matthewyogreaves even read my comment in it's entirety. =P

[surlytara]

This country is in a drought, I live in a small country town in Queensland named Roma, and when I first got here it hadn't rained in over 3 months. It may be raining out in WA, but here it's the dryest place I have ever been.

[philipwinstonthomas]

"hit the capital!" jesus christ!!! Sydney is not the capital. Ohh jesus people are stupid

[anocheceres]

The End of the World DEC.21 2012??

I think so...sooo enjoy while you can!!! hah

[StryderRyuBmore]

Please man, over a dust storm? Lol, but fuck! I wish I live in Australia, America is so fucking boring and nothing ever happens here but a bunch of fucking conservatives going wild in the streets.

[Michael2k5]

Clearly my friend, you have never visited NYC... There is never a dull day over here.

[zoszos5]

Sydney is a great place and all is seriously awsome and is such i sight but i always wanted to go america

[kurtkrusader]

lol dry spell? all our dams in western australia overflowed yesterday. highest level in 12 years

[Trianothingy]

its look fun.. but it also looks like what 2012 will look like

[bbcproductions21]

ITS ORAANNGGEE

[AussieBrock]

bah, i think it would be cool

[LRPhotographer]

Can you imagine how many boogers are being picked over there right now?

[pootubeftw]

another one bites the dust?

[momenabdulla]

Climate change. Earth rotates around sun: Climate change Things fall down: Climate change 2+2=4: Climate change

[HyperMadness]

Man, you should submit that to the Royal Acadamy of Science. They are gonna be BLOWN away.

[momenabdulla]

They are blown aways because of Climate Change?

Oh my God.

[yasser1112]

[muck47]

its not from allah, i know because he was sucking my cock at the time.

HAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[EpiQ835]

[dezmcnetik]

Racist?

.

Do you still believe in "god"?

Open your eyes,dude

[Finkelgruber]

EpiQ835 - Do you think a stupid racist is worse than a foul mouthed talker?

[muck47]

epiQ835-

i am ANTI RACIST, just as i am ANTI RELIGION, how did you equate the two you DUMB FUCK!!!

[EpiQ835]

whatsoever but dont be anti religion..i love peaceful..

[Finkelgruber]

muck 47 you are crude in mind - crude in speech !

[muck47]

why thank you! i gave you the thumbs up btw! but im sick of the ultimate storm on this planet-organized religion- i am not racist at all and i have the tatts and scars to prove it

[mvp8089]

dats scary cause its happenen here! OMG

[jd5503]

I reckon it's all just a bunch of bulldust

[coocoobumbum]

I reckon you be from ALLLABAAMAAA?

[TheNeonAngel]

i live in sydney and when i woke up that day my house was FULL of dust! I spent the morning cleaning EVERYTHING! even my kids toys had to be washed! All the cars outside looked like they had been parked there for 6 months! they were so full of dust! It was just everywhere!!!

[Choowbz]

This dust storm came two days later than last years but was bigger

The same winds blow all year often greater than this one but in September all the inland farmers are breaking the soil for the spring crop

No one here wants to even consider the connection

But each year at this time they can be seen ploughing the dust in high winds right across the plains

They plough to a schedule not to the weather

The dust bowl effect

Removing ground cover on a grand scale

Next September may be worse

[TerryEFV2]

can explain why your soil needs breaking? are they new fields?

here in canada we discontinued summer-fallow, ploughing etc long ago. rotation and chems have replaced. just wondering.

just wondering

[Choowbz]

The red soil of the inland is unlike any other i have known. it sets like concrete when dry

The fine particles lock together

The Australian farmers use a slash and burn form of farming in the inland

Breaking the ground allows the following rains to penetrate and remain longer under the sown soil.

It is not necessary but it is effective and our farmers see no need for a change of practise

The scale of scrub clearing here is a world record

Pristine Soil that has never been turned, Ever.

[lpearlma]

Berriblue- Pretty sure the beach at .51 is Manly. Could never forget how lovely it is!

[kifarutherhino]

At least these folks can see. I feel for them, to be sure, but we were in a 12-hour whiteout/dust storm at Burningman last year in the Black Rock Desert of Nevada, and you'd be amazed at what the human character is capable of. Doctors and nurses with the Reno Emergency Management Services Authority came out and told participants how to handle the dust. Breathe through the nose, and not the mouth, and you'll avoid the nasty dry feeling in your throat. Ski goggles (clear) can protect your eyes.

[psychoticfaerie]

I heard it was like living in a fanta bottle...

Can I also add, she was wrong at a point? '...swept across the East of the country on Tuesday, hitting the Capital on Wednesday morning'. Sydney's not the capital, Canberra is, and we got the dust on Tuesday. No wonder so many people think Sydney's the capital, if they're even stating it in news broadcasts!!

[MizzHelena]

amazing it was to witness.. both beautiful and deadly!

[Leftfield71]

Once again nature has outdone Hollywood. Those images look more apocalyptic than anything Hollywood has ever created.

[nikobolso]

THAT'S what happen when u abuse of mother nature.. the countries who contributes more to the global warming are gonna be the worst affected !!!

[flip0ne]

It's a sign of 2012... climate changes, and it all starting in Australia.

[screenieplay]

True awsome power of God.... Maybe He used this cheat code to change Orange Sky. COOOLLL...

Left, Left, L2, R1, Right, Square, Square, L1, L2, X

[MrMrSkyhigh]

see where it happened on ONE-DAY-IN

[TrickyEmu]

Preview of Mars

[1234567loading]

doomsday is going to start in sydney

[saunallezellite]

Jesus! what would Pep and Max make of this?

[pichuneke]

No need to go to Mars now...

[Berriiblue]

the picture at .51 looks like Terrigal beach

[argebaka]

Canberra is the capital... Tards.

[phonzee101]

how do you what city thier talking about they may be showing scenes of sydney doesn't mean there always talking about it

[Jodatoa05]

phenomenons like this will start to turn up around the world much more frequently in my opinion... are they tel-tale signs of something bigger? who knows... but its only a matter of time... lol. 2012?

[nzlook11]

Like Mars

[modul3]

No, the dust storm hit the capital - Canberra -on tuesday. This dust storm hit Sydney on wednesday.

[t4mor4]

0:53 - "Hit the Capital" Canberra is the capital not Sydney.
