  • @becki1990z no man your thinking of a solar eclipse!!!!!

  • it's annoying that every time there is an eclipse the moon gets in the way.

  • where i live the next one is 2017 DX

  • 7/11/10 Next Total Solar . Next Lunar Eclpise 12/21/10. Confirm this On Nasa website! Thanks GOd Bless All.

  • its perfect cos the moon is around 4000 times smaller than the sun yet we are 4000 times further away from the sun so the eclipse is perfect...

  • A lunar eclipse will be visible all over North America on December 21, 2010.

  • That was really beautiful! I wish I could see one live :)

  • it kinda looks lik a blak hol

  • Experience a solar eclipse in person is definitely something I want to accomplish before I die.

  • @daniwalksitout I agree.

  • Thts beautiful...i wish i had seen it

  • next time] some one uhmm record the shadow that goes towards you

  • 1:23 Wow thats the most amazing corona ive ever seen!

    ...........lucky asshole...........wish i was there

  • damn i was just leaving turkiye from meating my familiy and was going to istambull i was on the airplane i still saw it...kinda

  • yayyyy ive seen this when i was about 9!! so amazing , also watched it live from istanbul turkey . but anyways , the funny thing is , the background music in this video is not even turkish ?? thats like indian or something COME ONNN GET IT RIGHT

  • is it just me or does that dude sound like a sports announcer...n there goes the sun....DIAMMOND RINGG..A FANTASTIC DIAMOND RING ahah..but amazing

  • holy crap thats awsome lol

  • It's amazing when the moon manages to be coincidentally passing exactly across the sun, and I mean when it fits in a perfect circle like that rather than passing slightly below or above it...it's incredible to see

  • Lol thats scary though at the same time Lolz

  • aye, i mean that was only for a few moments and if that eclipse stayed like that then life on our planet would be SOL. here, lemme point a loaded gun at your head for a few moments and pull back the hammer then walk away :-O

  • My comment was directed at cannabiskilla1. I apologies to leave that out :p

  • As a Physicist, I am fairly certain that such an event will never occur to this planet. The distance from planet earth to the center of our galaxy is about 26,000 light years. Even if a gravitational path existed that made it possible for the solar system to travel there (there is not), it would take more than 37 million years to get there in our current speed.

  • it happened in pakistan smwhere in 1998 i remember... bt this one is damn scary

  • i never saw a solar eclipse in my life (except in videos)! the only one i saw was when i was about four years old and i don't remember anything...

  • @itinter

    Same, but I was 2.

  • That is wierd

  • OMG I wanna c 1!!!!!!

  • @cannabiskilla1

    sorry, but theres nooooooo way that the center of the milky way galaxy can come between the sun and the earth.

    you're thinking that the solar system will become aligned with the center of the galaxy.-2012 no fear

  • thats beautifull! i love the diamond ring!

  • cool

  • whats wrong with people... everytime something like this happens people are like OMG it gonna end the world!!!.....

  • @AddDude23 its nature people r really dumb yeah its facsinating but it doesnt mean the world is gonna end

  • @AddDude23

    haha south park style

  • @AddDude23 I KNOW BUT THE WORLD ISNT GOING TO

  • @AddDude23 dude the its friking 3:00 and its fucking dark! if i see somethin like that i'll freak so bad i'll put my head underground

  • @AddDude23

    The people aren't freaking out because they think it will end the world, they are freaking out because for many of them this is the first, and maybe only, time that they've seen a solar eclipse

  • @AddDude23 So next time an eclipse happens we should sugest people to flip their hair and say "it's whatever".

  • @AddDude23 natives thought that

  • holy crap! thats scary!

  • winter solstice 2012 will be a much diferent solar eclipse than this..rather than the moon it will be the center of our galaxy covering up the sun...the center of our galaxy is a dark rift or a black hole i know not what will happen on this day but i have us in my prayrs...

  • @cannabiskilla1 OMG that is an aztec prophecy, they also said that in 2006 we will fucking die. I personally didnt, and i dont think you did either.

  • @cannabiskilla1 except for the fact that what you are saying is not even close to possible

  • @cannabiskilla1 there is no eclipse on dec 21 2012 troll

  • Wow, the perfection of how the moon covers the sun completely, due to the distances of the moon and sun away from the Earth... PERFECTION. This is like the signature of Allah.

  • We're gonna explain to you how this works, as you can see the moon is tiny compared to the sun... oh heres the eclipse never mind we're not gonna explain anything.

  • @saturnv3 true...lol!!

  • master.....

    people fill in the word

  • WOW that was amazing

  • awesome!

  • i know right!!! :(

  • that was freaking amazing! i love it...!

  • god our universe is so fucking amazing i wish i knew all thesecrets of how and why most thoughts lead to a higher being although thats pretty crazy itself

  • Comment removed

  • You can hear people crying when it goes into totality. I think its a pretty emotional experience because a total eclipse is about as awe inspiring and beautiful as anything on earth.

  • except of course, british women! Am I right? Eh?
