This seems more like a planned destructive TESTING rather than an operational turbine failing. I comment on this as I am a certified Installer of Wind Turbines and understand them well enough.
How about a nano energy harness that takes energy at a quantum level from the surrounding space. It is possible in physics that this could be achievable in the next few decades/centuries :) Then we do not need fusion or any other renewable energy. Just take it from the surrounding space!
On top of this, why don't they show you all the Bald Eagles, Hawks and Geese that fly into these windmills and get chopped to pieces? Because they are Green Communists. Yes, Green is the new Red!
@MrTruthBeTold51 "Because they are Green Communists. Yes, Green is the new Red!"
I would actually agree with that, despite wanting high density and cleaner fuels.
We now have 'green' paints, green glues, green greens. So long as it has 'green' stamped on it, people seem to buy into it, regardless of whether or not it's a.) shite b.) massively overpriced.
We need to dump all our cash into fusion, get that sorted and be done with this wank.
Look how those giant blades just "float" to the ground. Just one weights AT LEAST 25,000 pounds. Ouch. And look at the way thattop section smashes the ground, sending dirt and rock everywhere. That main hub weights at least 55,000 pounds. HOT DAYUM!
@jetpoweredgriffin HAARP. Fukushima was staged in order to once again kill the idea of nuclear power because liberal politicians want wind turbines everywhere so here come the government subsidies. Technology is out there and nuclear power can be improved, but not if we're only going to subsidize wind and solar.
@jetpoweredgriffin Well, all I can say is I enjoyed it because you're a lefty that actually doesn't use the "F" word and it's always nice to play "Real Hardball" with a leftist without that word. Take care.
@jetpoweredgriffin Wait, what largest natural disaster in history? Fukishima was not staged, but nor was it or the tsunami the largest disaster in history. The largest nuclear disaster was Chernobyl, 4000 dead.
The largest power plant disaster was at the hydroelectric plant in Banqiao, 171,000 dead. The worst natural disaster in history, were the 1931 China floods, 1 to 2 million dead.
@jetpoweredgriffin Um... this isn't Dresden, no one has any reason to make up numbers, though people do like to exaggerate the Chernobyl disaster to 200,000 with little to no evidence. Point is, Japan is far from worst.
@jetpoweredgriffin Inflation probably has something to do with that, though even without adjusting, Hurricane Katrina's estimates, high, medium, and low, all top Japan's high, medium, and low. Adjusting for inflation, many many other disasters are no doubt worst. Also, most don't figure out which disaster was worst by measuring financial damage.
@ I totally dispute that statement. People CONSTANTLY evaluate everything the $. I am from New Orleans and I can tell you that there is no comparison between her and Tokyo. The consequences are immense. I really don't care about the mean,the mode and the average. ALL numbers can be skewered. I really don't understand your attempted point but when SoCal has it's turn, our opinions are not going to matter. When you go through a disaster, let me know. I have been through several. Goodnight.
@jetpoweredgriffin You mean all information can be skewered. I have no reason to believe you over the numbers, being closer emotionally to a disaster merely ruins one's ability to look at it rationally, when I too go through a disaster, I too will probably be unable to look at it from a rational standpoint, though for now, sure, goodnight.
True, except I am not so emotionally invested there- America is a looming socioeconomic disaster even if nothing new happens. I am currently on the Navajo Nation- they live in at a level that most Americans would consider post disaster. The Nation is the size of W. Virginia,has 300,000 people and takes up parts of 4 states. The main thing is that we face events far beyond science or government's ability to compensate for. At such a time, we must pull together or we will pull apart. Thank you
@jetpoweredgriffin I have heard horror stories about the poverty level on reservations, I wish that fellow human beings did not have to live in such conditions. I apologize for all the sidetracking, my only intention when I first responded was to ask how Japan's tsunami was quantified as the worst disaster in all of history, not to dispute anything else.
@ PS Re:New Orleans and Tokyo, It was simply that New Orleans is not as essential to world trade. Japan will have a much longer term cost and impact to the world. Numerous floods,earthquakes and plagues have had death tolls in incomprehensible numbers. Japan's was greater than the Gulf Coasts but they are small overall compared to others. Meaningful conversations at 500 words per shot is really pretty silly to me. The main thing is, a major SoCal event could be worse than numbers can say.
@jetpoweredgriffin I agree with all of that, I know Japan is gonna be worst long term, but I thought you were claiming it was *the* worst disaster, of all time, in the whole history of the world.
@C Pt.2 New Orleans was largely evacuated- Southern California will unfortunately not have time. Where do you relocate that many people,anyway? I know many people play Russian Roulette with time and scoff&mock about disasters... but that's only till they happen. Not worrying about these things and recklessly not caring are two very different things. If you prepare, you don't need to worry. If you don't, you'll regret it. Don't hold your breath waiting for help- especially from FEMA.

Or, perhaps you're just habitually defending the wealthiest energy producers because they have more money and seem worthy - such as, the Koch Brothers? That and your biased slur seem to indicate you have a ways to go before deserving respect.
@rawheas whats that? I don't understand your ching chang chung talk. What do you know, your prolly just another stoner Canadian. BTW your welcome for the channel veiw, I noticed your comment box is pretty much filled with people correcting you on more stupid youtube comments. Go figure.
@staciepaul, Quick flip through a history book will show you that the Japanese are not the best decision makers. #PearlHarbor, Just wait until you see all of the multinational corporations that give up on putting money into that source of energy. Do you want your name tied to a failure like this? I know I don't, nor do they. You sit there an twiddle your thumbs while we (green) continue to grow. Heck, if your lucky maybe depleted uranium will help you grow a couple more thumbs to twiddle.
@you are so right, of course we can just judge a nation on what it did more than 70 years ago.....i mean how much really changes in 70 years? ....moron.... Japan isn't about to have a nuclear melt down all containment vessels are fine which means no serious damage has been done, they aren't making any bad decisions.
@terrorblack, Fuck you... maybe we should go with more nuke huh? so we can wipe out the human race instead of having a turbine fall in the middle of fucking nowhere. idiot. And it's wind turbine not windmill, shit head. It doesn't grind grain.
@rohde42 ya look at the thousand dead from the nuke plants in Japan.... Ohhh wait that was the tsunami. Nuke power done correctly is not without risks but safe. Japan has not lost containment on any of their plants. They are trying to save the reactors best they can so they can start them back up. Doesn't sound like they are giving up on that source of energy. Why are you?
This only goes to show the danger of wind power, we need a moratorium on wind turbine construction until we can determine that it is possible to build windmills safely in the future
hi, nice video. Friends and Subscribers welcome if you want to have a look at my Home Wind/Solar Energy stuff. I won a Green Design Contest with my system on Earth Day. Have a look if you like.
@TBone96000 There are other problems with nuclear power: A waste storage facility. The only cost-effective solution is to essentially bury it somewhere under enough neutron-absorbent matter and wait for it to decay fully, correct? Last I heard, there was talk of vitrifying the dirt around burial sites, trapping waste in an impermeable casing. Maybe that technique has reached maturity, but if it hasn't, then what? Is there another solution to waste storage?
@TBone96000 what world wide collapse? its not like just one day we are going to wake up and there is going to absolutly zero oil on earth.....its juts going to get incerasingly rare, and substitute's will start to take over. its not just going to be gg for civilization one day because we don't have oil...
@rawheas You shouldn't worry about reasoning with that imbecile. He doesn't understand enough about renewable energies to make an informed decision. He fluffs up his arguments with what he believes is elevated diction, but the rhetoric remains the same, and it is essentially flawed. The failure of a wind turbine may kill you... if you happen to be standing OUTSIDE in gale-force winds in the middle of a wind farm, in which case you're asking for a Darwinian solution.
@rawheas Personally, I believe wind is inefficient as far as renewable sources go. The wind, and in fact, all our weather is powered by one primary source: The sun. As consumers, we need to invest in newer solar technologies.
@LarryTheTubaBoy Most sources of power are ultimately based on the sun. It's just that directly harnessing the energy from the sun isn't always easy or affordable, so indirect methods - like wind power, fossil fuels, hydroelectric power etc. - are typically preferred. That's why you can see countries covering 20% or more of their electricity consumption with wind power, but not direct solar power (photovoltaic or otherwise).
@TBone96000 wanna know the real reason that the US uses alot of fossil fuels? because after the cost of disposing of the nuclear waste and all the saftey, its actually like 5% cheaper to just run coal or natural gas, and they are like rediculously cheaper than wind or solar.
Power companies don't give a shit about anything but money because thats all that affects them.
@TBone96000 I'm sorry, but our civilization's continuation may rely on how quickly we adapt nuclear power on the wide scale, and ignorant intransigence like his may end up costing lives in the future if peak oil arrives and we aren't prepared for it.
@LarryTheTubaBoy What the fuck are you talking about? Do you honestly believe that the Chernobyl accident involved an explosion comparable to the yield of a nuclear weapon? Hint, fucktard; it's more in the range of an artillery shell, and the plant is placed far away enough from settlements to make the explosion a complete non-issue. Get educated and stop pretending to know what you're talking about based on pop-culture MYTHS.
@TithonusSyndrome I never said the reactor went critical mass. I just said that the population of an entire town got irradiated. For someone who wants me to be educated, you sure can't read too well. Good day, dipshit.
@Bradfords777 going like this, it does not generate any electricity, because when it goes like this, the generator is switched off for safety reasons. does not help the rotor blade...
yes...powerplants around the world are just sitting there: waiting to blow up. Sometimes they are waiting to catch fire. Sometimes the power plants are just sitting there waiting to fall down, too.
This is bullshit 1930's technology that cannot be improved.
your power bills go down , yet?
here>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>look at some other jumk exploding >>>>>>>>>
pick a screen, any screen.
junk science. look up the R.E.A .....or for all you fucking hippies : just "google it".
These are not windmills, but instead are called: "Dusters", by those who know the truth. These 'Dusters' spread homocules (Homosexual Molecules) over a wide area. If one breaths enough of these homocules, they have a strong desire to smoke a cock. For God's sake, wear your gas masks people!!! There is no telling where this madness may end!!!
@9ff70f96 actually, this isn't an edited video. I visited a wind farm today and they spoke about this video and explained all of the reasons why this one sort of exploded. if you want to do some extra research on it, it's a vesta brand wind turbine.
@hairyptter Dumbarse, go and read the comment I was answering. I'll give you a little clue about doing that; it has something to do with the "@TheRoyalAquamaster" part in my original message.
I don't need to research why it "exploded", I can see what happened. A blade failure milliseconds before the 'explosion' caused the rotor assembly to be thrown badly out of balance, significant enough to deflect one of the remaining blades into the path of the tower.
@SirCliveCalculator the tips of the windmill are going at 600+ mph because of a brake failure. Then because it broke the sound barrier, one of the tips disintegrated, which unbalanced the other 2 and then they started wabling and cut off the main support
These are just too big, too much. 7% of all the electricity is lost in transmission. Wasteful. The same raw materials and labor should go to putting smaller rooftop wind turbines at the point of use. Then the 7% for the life of the equipment will be saved, used. Look at my videos of wind power, it's a far better approach than these big wind farms. Peace.
Between 0:04 , 0:05 you see a bird or object come in contact. The noise that you hear is the impact of the blades hitting the tower structure. I played it over an over.

I do believe the Japanese Earthquake/Tsunami/Reactor event to be the worst simply because it is ultimately having the largest global impact,
simply because of Tokyo's significance to global affairs.
Other disasters could be measured as more powerful or more immediately destructive but this is the first time
in the modern era that a major nation has been left reeling by one event and it's aftermath.

That's why you can see countries covering 20% or more of their electricity consumption with wind power, but not direct solar power (photovoltaic or otherwise).

@TBone96000 wanna know the real reason that the US uses alot of fossil fuels? because after the cost of disposing of the nuclear waste and all the saftey, its actually like 5% cheaper to just run coal or natural gas, and they are like rediculously cheaper than wind or solar.
Power companies don't give a shit about anything but money because thats all that affects them.

@TBone96000 I'm sorry, but our civilization's continuation may rely on how quickly we adapt nuclear power on the wide scale, and ignorant intransigence like his may end up costing lives in the future if peak oil arrives and we aren't prepared for it.

LarryTheTubaBoy 1 year ago
@LarryTheTubaBoy What the fuck are you talking about? Do you honestly believe that the Chernobyl accident involved an explosion comparable to the yield of a nuclear weapon? Hint, fucktard; it's more in the range of an artillery shell, and the plant is placed far away enough from settlements to make the explosion a complete non-issue. Get educated and stop pretending to know what you're talking about based on pop-culture MYTHS.

@TithonusSyndrome I never said the reactor went critical mass. I just said that the population of an entire town got irradiated. For someone who wants me to be educated, you sure can't read too well. Good day, dipshit.

These are not windmills, but instead are called: "Dusters", by those who know the truth. These 'Dusters' spread homocules (Homosexual Molecules) over a wide area. If one breaths enough of these homocules, they have a strong desire to smoke a cock. For God's sake, wear your gas masks people!!! There is no telling where this madness may end!!!

@9ff70f96 actually, this isn't an edited video. I visited a wind farm today and they spoke about this video and explained all of the reasons why this one sort of exploded. if you want to do some extra research on it, it's a vesta brand wind turbine.
hairyptter 1 year ago
@hairyptter Dumbarse, go and read the comment I was answering. I'll give you a little clue about doing that; it has something to do with the "@TheRoyalAquamaster" part in my original message.
I don't need to research why it "exploded", I can see what happened. A blade failure milliseconds before the 'explosion' caused the rotor assembly to be thrown badly out of balance, significant enough to deflect one of the remaining blades into the path of the tower.

legojimmie 1 year ago
@SirCliveCalculator the tips of the windmill are going at 600+ mph because of a brake failure. Then because it broke the sound barrier, one of the tips disintegrated, which unbalanced the other 2 and then they started wabling and cut off the main support

These are just too big, too much. 7% of all the electricity is lost in transmission. Wasteful. The same raw materials and labor should go to putting smaller rooftop wind turbines at the point of use. Then the 7% for the life of the equipment will be saved, used. Look at my videos of wind power, it's a far better approach than these big wind farms. Peace.
