what happens to all the people inside it could they run out or is it to big or would they die

[nhraim]

It can be dangerous for people that have respiratory problems; others can handle it by covering their mouth with a piece of cloth, just like in the desert.

[award4020]

Apocalypse Now!

how often do these these things happen and why does everybody stop recording?

[nhraim]

Hi, in Hassakeh (city in Northeastern Syria), a sandstorm of this magnitude has never occurred in the last 100 years.

You stop recording because you wanna get out of there before it gets you! Pretty suffocating!

[frog7800]

[aarononline]

See, nothing good comes from Iraq...

[nhraim]

civilization came from there! time you get back to your history books!

[LustxFilledxEyesx13]

How long did it last?

[nhraim]

It didn't last that long because it was travelling real fast, but it too more than 5 hours for the air to be completely clear.

[omegabl]

woah damn that thing its serious what happened when it reached your home?? was the wind strong?? tell us

[nhraim]

Thanks for your comment... it's the first impression that stays imprinted in your mind for a while, let me tell you that one questions himself when he sees it coming toward you with its might and size. Questions like, what's happening? or am I safe? or even some apocalyptic questions like... is this really the end?

[nhraim]

Then when it's there all around, you kindof suffocate because its dusty because of the thin particles (sky is yellow) and the ~80km/h wind transports the sand everywhere and anywhere... houses are not best isolated so you kindof get sand in the house. I guess its part of the slow desertification of the once rich agriculture area... since the 3rd millennium B.C.E.

[nightfallstain]

serious....wow!

[Tsukiden]

Impressionnant, j'imagine qu'être face à ce type phénomène naturel doit être encore plus incroyable !

[marneydog]

That is SCARY looking! How often does this occur?

[nhraim]

First time in the last 100 years in N-E Syria. (I have been told by elders) cheers
